beauty guru

Cosmetics tutorial creator

A beauty guru is someone who has built an audience—typically on YouTube or social media—by sharing makeup tutorials, skincare routines, and product reviews.

The term emerged in the early 2010s as influencer culture took shape: She became a beauty guru with millions of subscribers.

Guru here suggests expertise and a devoted following, though the title is self-conferred or fan-given rather than credentialed.
