Again, to qualify for this trope, a single instance of flirty or sexual behavior is '''not enough'''.

In more recent times, however, beauty marks have become more associated with a coquettish and sensual appeal than just mere beauty, the demure and subtle attractiveness of the beauty mark falling to the wayside in favor of a more explicitly lustful and sexual attractiveness. This has led to works giving characters who are known for their [[SexGod sexual prowess]], [[ReallyGetsAround lustfulness]], or those [[HeadTurningBeauty characterized]] as [[WorldsMostBeautifulWoman sex symbols]] in-universe beauty marks on their face.

The beauty mark. While the reasons why this particular kind of facial mole has been deemed attractive are somewhat opaque, one thing for sure is that beauty marks have been seen as an appealing feature since at least the 18th century.

In more recent times, however, beauty marks have become more associated with a coquettish and sensual appeal than just mere beauty, the demure and subtle attractiveness of the beauty mark falling to the wayside in favor of a more explicitly lustful and sexual attractiveness. This has lead to works giving characters who are known for their [[SexGod sexual prowess]], [[ReallyGetsAround lustfulness]], or those [[HeadTurningBeauty characterized]] as [[WorldsMostBeautifulWoman sex symbols]] in-universe beauty marks on their face.

Typically such beauty marks will be placed somewhere near the mouth, either above the corner of one's mouth or below. This is sometimes in homage to Creator/MarilynMonroe, an American pin-up model and actress of the '50s and '60s widely known as a sex symbol because of her [[EveryoneLovesBlondes platinum blonde hair]], sleepy, "bedroom" eyes, and hourglass figure, who also had a beauty mark in the same place. However, just as often this placement is for fanservice, EroticEating and LecherousLicking used in addition to the mark for some sensual mouth and lips focus. Another popular spot is just below one's eye, though any facial beauty mark will do.

While any character who is seductive, sexually outgoing, or widely considered sexually attractive in the work can count, the following are those most likely to have beauty marks to emphasize their sexuality: '''TheTease''', TheVamp, TheCasanova, TheCharmer, FemmeFatale, and the ChickMagnet. Characters renowned for their beauty may also qualify ''if'' that beauty is [[Administrivia/InUniverseExamplesOnly commented on in-universe]] and is specifically characterized as being sexy. In sum, any character who seduction or being seductive is central to their personality. Though many examples of this trope will be of women, male characters are not excluded and can also have beauty marks added to their faces for added sensuality, especially in [[BoysLove genres where female love interests don't exist]].

Again, to qualify for this trope, a single instance of flirty or sexual behavior is '''not enough'''. Being flirtatious, sexually forward, and/or hyper-sexualized need to be prominent parts of a character's characterization to count. Examples that are just "this character is attractive and has a mole" is at best a Administrivia/ZeroContextExample or not an example of the trope at all. As this is a characterization trope, [[NoRealLife/NarrativeCharacterizationAndPlotTropes No Real Life Examples, Please!]]

Subtrope of MeaningfulAppearance. See DistinguishingMark for beauty marks that are considered uniquely shaped or placed in-universe and CharmPoint for things that make a character attractive or interesting to others. SpottingTheThread covers instances when a mole reveals a character's true identity and IdenticalTwinIDTag for when a beauty mark is the main distinguisher for otherwise identical twins.

* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'': Rangiku Matsumoto, Vice Captain of Squad 10, has a beauty mark below the corner of her mouth and is in-universe dubbed the "[[WorldsMostBeautifulWoman sexiest woman of Sereitei]]" because of her [[TheTease flirtatious nature]] and her ample bosom that she [[BigBreastPride takes pride in]] by [[ShamelessFanserviceGirl showing it off liberally]].

* ''Manga/CatsEye'': Rui Kisugi is the HeroicSeductress of the thieving trio and has a beauty mark under her mouth.

This goes along with her playfully flirtatious, TheTease-like behavior, which includes flirting with enemies and allies alike, [[EroticEating Erotically Eating]] lollipops for fun and for power ups, and occassionally [[LecherousLicking licking her lips]] when excited.

[[folder:Web Original]]
* While ''WebOriginal/GetsuyoubiNoTawawa'' is no stranger to lewd women, the aptly nicknamed Hokuro-chan (Mole-chan) uses this trope as her initial gimmick.

When confronted, Hokuro-chan reveals herself to be a [[TheTease flirtatious tease]], as she would sometimes tease the guy about the identity of more moles on her body.
