The Sisters Everyone Knows from TikTok Just Dropped Their Own Makeup
If you spend any time scrolling TikTok, you already know Charli and Dixie D’Amelio. The two sisters – Charli is 16, Dixie just turned 19 – went from regular Connecticut girls to two of the biggest names on the internet in less than two years. Now they’re taking everything they’ve learned about confidence, creativity, and staying real online into the beauty world with Morphe 2, a brand-new collection they helped create with Morphe.
What Makes Morphe 2 Different?
Most makeup lines aimed at teens feel either too grown-up or too babyish. Morphe 2 sits right in the middle. The whole idea is simple: wear a little, wear a lot, or wear nothing at all – and still feel good about yourself. Charli told reporters, “We want everyone to know they’re beautiful exactly as they are, makeup or no makeup.”
The products are made to be easy. Think tinted moisturizer that feels like skincare (it comes in 20 flexible shades), sparkly jelly eye shadows you dab on with your fingers, shiny lip oils that smell like fruit, cheek sticks that give a natural flush, and super-creamy skin tints. Nothing needs a million brushes. Everything costs under $20. That matters when you’re a high-school kid saving allowance money.
Why did they pick Morphe?
Morphe already has a huge teen following – their original James Charles palette sold over a million units in its first year. Pairing with the D’Amelio sisters made perfect sense. Charli and Dixie get to speak directly to kids who watch their every video, and Morphe gets two of the most trusted faces in Gen Z.
How the Sisters Actually Built the Line Together
Did they fight over shades? A little. Did they have the best time ever? Also yes.
Charli laughs when she remembers the late-night Zoom calls. “We’d be on FaceTime at 2 a.m. swatching colors on our arms, sending pictures back and forth.” Dixie says they each brought different tastes – Charli loves soft pinks and sparkles, Dixie leans toward peachy tones and dewy skin. In the end they compromised on a palette that feels happy and summery all year round.
What about the packaging?
They insisted on clear tubes and pots so you can see exactly what you’re getting. No guessing games. Plus, everything is lightweight enough to throw in a backpack for school touch-ups between classes.
How Has Quarantine Changed the Way They See Makeup?
Before the world shut down, Charli wore a full face for dance competitions since she was six years old – fake lashes, red lips, the works. Dixie usually kept things simple. When they suddenly had nowhere to go, something funny happened.
Charli started doing full glam looks just to film TikToks at home. “I’d spend an hour on eyeliner even though the only people who saw me were my family and my dog,” she says. Dixie got obsessed with skincare instead. She now does a ten-step routine every night and jokes that her skin has never looked better.
Both sisters agree: makeup became less about looking perfect for other people and more about having fun and feeling ready for the day.
What Do They Hope Girls Take Away from Morphe 2?
Charli puts it plainly: “I want my fans to stop thinking they have to hide pimples or scars. Skin happens. Life happens.” Dixie adds that seeing hate comments every day made her realize how much kindness matters. “If putting on a sparkly eye shadow makes someone smile in the mirror, we did our job.”
Real talk about acne and confidence
The campaign photos show the sisters with bare faces, freckles, and the occasional breakout. That wasn’t an accident. In a beauty industry that still airbrushes everything, showing real skin feels brave – and necessary. Over 85% of people between 12 and 24 experience at least mild acne, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Seeing two of the most famous teens in the world say “this is normal” hits different.
Launch Day Madness and What Comes Next
When Morphe 2 dropped in July 2021, the website crashed twice in the first hour. Stores sold out of the jelly eye shimmers in days. Fans posted videos of themselves doing the “Morphe 2 glow-up challenge” – half face bare, half face with the new products – racking up millions of views.
The sisters hint there’s more coming. Charli wants a pastel liquid eyeliner set. Dixie dreams of a skincare line next. For now, they’re just happy watching regular kids recreate their looks and tag them with the proudest smiles.
At the end of the day, Morphe 2 isn’t about turning girls into mini influencers. It’s about handing them tools to play, experiment, and walk out the door feeling a little braver – whether that’s with glossy lips or none at all.
