Bishie sparkle. That was the name the tag for it was this whole damn time. I always know it as "shoujo bubble" too, and not seeing it led me to not tagging several posts I know it applies to due to not being sure what the tag for it was if not "shoujo bubble".
So yeah. Good utility alias in my opinion.
Can't help but wonder if the current name is a misnomer in its entirety. bishie sparkle + bishounen returns literally zero results, and almost no posts in the tag associate it with "attractive men and women" (or at least not in a bishounen-like way).

Makes you wonder where the name originates from, especially if it has become common enough for it to not only be the title for the concept on TV Tropes (whereas 'shoujo bubble' is only mentioned in their page for Love Bubbles and framed as distinct from bishie sparkles), but also prompts relevant results on Google (enough so for it to become the tag about a month ago in forum #266676). Interestingly though, 'shoujo bubble' has been mentioned twice before in the forum here: forum #165814 and forum #166976.

Probably the English anime fandom at the time using "bishie" to mean more or less "ikemen".
