I mean she probably passed on Mr Right for a thug.
How do I explain to my cousin that there's no such thing as "Mr. Right"

You're up against indoctrination from formative/childhood years of promoting Mr. Right via society, peers, social media, & rearing.
Approach it from this angle:
Focus/Discuss with her developing & maintaining self-esteem, self-validation, health/fitness, femininity, spirituality, education (knowledge), financial literacy & cultivating interests/short & longterm goal planning.
The Key:
Tell her the difference in looking for/asking for the right things...but...from the wrong person. It will save her a lot of headaches, heartaches, & hard, swift kicks in the ass.

No one person is the key to someone else's happiness.
The very idea of that kinda thing is insane.
No matter who or how happy a marriage is, there's times when someone wants to kill their partner, or at least shake them so hard that the other person might think death is near. And that goes both ways.
The happiest marriages I've seen are built on loving people for who they are, and not resenting who or what they're not.
That's not Mr or Mrs Right. That's committed and conscious. There's a difference.
If who they're not bothers you more than you're appreciation for who they are, you're not ready for a life-long commitment.

I think you guys are conflating Mr. Right and Mr Perfect. There's no perfect human being but there are some people whose attributes mesh with each other and thus are more likely to have a happy and successful relationship.
For you to know who's right for you, you need to first have knowledge of self. If you don't, that's where parents and close family members can help because sometimes they know things about you that you're not conscious of.
Also, there's no rule that says there has to be one Mr Right. There could be 5 or 10 Mr. Rights in the very same college or church that you go to.
If there's such a thing as Mr Wrong (and there is), then there's definitely Mr Right.
Use and share this with fam or for yourself for a minimum of 30 days.

Link her to videos made by Princilla the Queenmaker. She'll get her on the right trackI gotta get some women in here too so @Gloxina I'm tagging you
My cousin is a sweetheart and she's very conservative at least publicly, whatever she does behind closed doors I don't wanna know
She looks to me for life advice sometimes I don't know why but she does. Anyway, she's stuck on this idea that there's this perfect man out there for her and I think that's what ruined her last relationship in a way because she was trying to turn him into "Mr. Right" when everyone could have told her from day one it ain't it.
Some women still out there believing in fairy tales. I tried to tell her I'm not perfect either, NOBODY is..
