Here’s a breakdown of the best beauty looks of stars from the past week and some tips on how to achieve them.
The 23-year-old actress took to Instagram to share some of her Vietnam holiday snaps, sporting a minimal taupe high-waisted bikini set and bronze, sunkissed makeup.
If you want to get that sun-drenched glow without actually going under the sun, try switching up your blush placement. Yi Xin absolutely nailed the look with a warm-hued blush dusted over the highest planes of her cheekbones and nose bridge.
The multi-hyphenate just gave us proof that less is always more when it comes to makeup with this fresh-faced selfie. In this photo, captioned “A moment of appreciation for my soft glam make-up please,” Fiona looks radiant and ready to take on the week thanks to her nude pout and stunning light brown eyeshadow.
To get the look, use a soft brown eyeshadow on your lids (Fiona is using Fenty Beauty’s Bomb Posse Palette) and pair that with a your-lips-but-better mauve lip liner and lipstick in the same shade. Apply the lip products then smudge it out with your fingertips for that diffused, blurred effect.
When the weather is too hot to try, take a cue from Joanne and swipe on a blue-red lipstick and call it a day. She paired her scarlet pout with a breathable crochet top and sunnies.
A statement-making scarlet pout can draw attention to redness and dark spots on the face. Before painting the lips red, prep your complexion with a light layer of tinted SPF to even out the skin tone without suffocating the skin.
Mysterious and dreamy, a deep brown nail colour seen on actress Tasha Low is an unexpected but sophisticated shade for the warmer months.
Pro tip: to prevent your nails from staining, apply a strengthening base coat and finish with a top coat for added shine and to enhance the longevity of your manicure.
When the weather creeps past 30 degrees, nothing beats a polished, slicked-back top knot. Carrie clearly agrees. Give your updo a sporty twist (pun fully intended) by leaving a few spiky strands out.
To tame flyaways and achieve that mirror-like shine, apply a strong-hold wax like this hairstyling stick from J-beauty brand Lucido-l.
