Doechii says openly using face tape helps her ‘embrace imperfection', but does it?
Most people know Doechii for her impeccably timed fast-paced rhymes – they're what earned her multiple awards, including a Grammy, and the title of Billboard Woman of the Year. But the US rapper is increasingly standing out for something other than her music: visible face tape. The Denial Is a River singer has proudly displayed the beauty hack on stage at the Grammys, while performing at festivals, and on social media. According to her stylist Sam Woolf, it's her way of exposing things that are 'meant to be hidden' – and being more vulnerable. A growing number of celebrities and beauty influencers appear to be taking a more open and transparent approach to beauty hacks or procedures. Stars like Ariana Grande are sharing their ' button-nose tricks ' on TikTok, while others like Martha Stewart are opening up about previous beauty procedures. So, why are more celebrities opening up about their appearance, and what could it mean for the rest of us? Wait, what is face tape? Face tape is precisely what it sounds like – tape applied to the face. Two small strips of tape, which are usually attached by an elasticised band, are attached to the temples to create a smooth, wrinkle-free look. In other words, it 'tightens' the face to create a more youthful appearance. It's not uncommon for models and celebrities to wear face tape, but it's usually hidden underneath or within their hair. Doechii, on the other hand, wears it where it can be seen, even sometimes bedazzling the tape pieces. Though the rapper has adopted it as one of her signature looks, other celebrities, including Charli XCX, have also worn visible face tape during public appearances. It has even become something of a staple on certain fashion runways, such as those of Givenchy and, most recently, Valentino.
