Happy 27th Birthday, Google! It’s a milestone that marks nearly three decades of transforming how we find information and interact with the digital world. What began as a university project has woven itself into the fabric of our daily lives. As we celebrate this anniversary, we're reminded of how much can change and evolve. Here at Mimic Makeup, we believe in the power of evolution, too—especially when it comes to expressing your authentic self through beauty. Our mission is to make premium cosmetics accessible to everyone, empowering you to create your own trends.
Let's take a look at Google's impressive journey and discover some amazing products to help you feel fabulous for any celebration.
The Google Story: From 'Backrub' to Global Icon
Many people ask, "When was Google born?" While the company was incorporated in early September 1998, it officially celebrates its birthday on September 27th. So, to the question, "Is Google 27 years old?"—as of 2025, it is! The name itself has a fascinating origin, stemming from "googol," a number so large it seems infinite, perfectly capturing the founders' goal of organizing the web's vast expanse of information.
Over the years, Google has become more than just a search engine. Think about how many times you've used Google Maps to find a new brunch spot or watched a makeup tutorial on YouTube. These innovations have become indispensable. Each year, the celebration gets a little more fun, often featuring a google birthday surprise spinner on the homepage. This tradition of interactive doodles, like the popular surprise google birthday spinner, adds a touch of playfulness to the anniversary. It’s these little moments of delight that make the brand so relatable.
A Flawless Canvas for Your Celebration Look
Just like Google provides a clean slate for your endless questions, your makeup routine should start with a perfect canvas. A reliable primer is the secret to a look that lasts all day. For a smooth, gripping base that keeps your foundation in place, the e.l.f. Power Grip Primer is an absolute game-changer. If you want to even your skin tone while getting that same lasting hold, the e.l.f. Power Grip Primer + 4% Niacinamide is your new best friend.
Next, let's talk about creating that airbrushed effect. A high-quality foundation can make all the difference. The Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Longwear Foundation offers a matte, full-coverage finish that looks natural and feels lightweight.
To conceal any blemishes or dark circles, the right concealer is key. The NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is a favorite among makeup enthusiasts for its buildable coverage and luminous finish. For something with a bit more blurring power, the Hourglass® Vanish™ Airbrush Concealer provides a soft-focus effect that’s truly seamless. To lock it all in, a dusting of the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Setting Powder or the Hourglass® Vanish Airbrush Pressed Powder will ensure your makeup stays flawless from morning to night.
Add a Splash of Color, Google-Style
Google is known for its iconic, colorful logo. Why not bring that same energy to your makeup? A pop of blush can instantly brighten your face and give you a healthy, youthful glow. For a creamy, on-the-go option, the rhode Pocket Blush delivers a beautiful wash of color that’s easy to blend. Another fantastic choice is the Pixi On-the-Glow Blush, which glides on smoothly and leaves a dewy finish.
Liquid blush formulas have become incredibly popular for their natural look. The Hourglass® Unreal Liquid Blush offers a silky texture that melts into the skin, while the NARS Afterglow Liquid Blush gives a radiant, lit-from-within glow. For a fun and unique application, the Milk Makeup Cooling Water Jelly Tint provides a sheer, buildable stain for both lips and cheeks that feels refreshing on the skin.
Perfect Your Pout with Must-Have Lip Products
No look is complete without the perfect lip. At Mimic Makeup, our curated selection of top-brand lip products ensures you’ll find your perfect match, whether you love a high-shine oil or a buttery balm.
Lip oils are the ultimate fusion of care and color. The Gisou Honey Infused Lip Oil uses the power of honey to deeply nourish and hydrate. For a touch of sheer color and a glossy finish, the Summer Fridays Dream Lip Oil is a beautiful option. If you’re looking for a plumping effect, the YSL Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss delivers shine and volume.
For intense hydration, the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm is a viral favorite that soothes and moisturizes. The rhode Peptide Lip Tint offers a sheer, buildable color packed with restorative peptides. To create a more defined lip, pair it with the rhode Peptide Lip Shape liner. For a simple, everyday tint, the Pixi +Hydra Lip Treat is a moisturizing balm with a hint of color. And for an overnight miracle worker, the LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask EX – Berry will leave your lips feeling soft and supple by morning.
The Finishing Touches: Eyes and Skin Health
Let's not forget the details that tie everything together. For long, voluminous lashes, the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High® Mascara is a drugstore hero that delivers dramatic results.
Underneath it all, healthy skin is the foundation of great makeup. Sunscreen is non-negotiable, and the La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 offers fantastic broad-spectrum protection without a heavy feel. Enhance your skincare routine with powerful serums like the La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum – Hyaluronic Acid + Vitamin B5 for intense hydration and plumping, or the La Roche-Posay Vitamin C12 Serum – Pure Vitamin C + Salicylic Acid to brighten your complexion and refine your skin’s texture.
