About

The Uncanny Valley Makeup Trend is a TikTok trend that was popularized in November 2023. After TikToker @blonde.girlyy posted a video trying makeup that makes her look "not human" around Halloween 2023, various other creators posted videos trying to evoke an uncanny valley feeling from viewers as the visual effect spread online.

Origin

TikToker @blonde.girlyy posted a video on October 27th, 2023, trying to make herself look "not human." Lukewarm response to her clip, alongside comments that called her concept "uncanny valley," compelled her to make another video on October 30th in which she specifically tried to evoke an uncanny valley feeling from viewers. The initial post gathered over 18 million views,[1] while her subsequent post[2] gathered over 13 million views and 1.6 million likes in roughly one week (seen below).
