About

The 'You Don't Look British' Makeup Trend also known as the M to the B Challenge or 'You Don't Look British,' 'Okay Let Me Just' refers to a makeover trend on TikTok where participants, often female, do their makeup to look like a stereotypical British chav. The trend first became popularized on TikTok around August 2020 under an original sound for "Gentleman" by SL and became popularized again in 2022 throughout January 2023 under an original sound for "M to the B" by Millie B, with Kim Kardashian doing the trend that month.
