Best beauty Instagrams of the week: IU just debuted her most dramatic hair transformation yet 

If you’re looking to change up your hair colour in 2024? Consider this your sign. South Korean singer IU swapped out her signature Raven tresses for a lighter, strawberry blonde hue, and showed off her new look at the FROW of Gucci Ancora Fashion Show. Wearing her hair down straight, with her ends flipped out and bangs grazing her peepers, the “Celebrity” singer’s shaggy “slept-in” hair was the perfect accompaniment to her furry black top.

Blondes might have more fun, but this doesn’t mean you can neglect your hair care. Since bleached strands tend to be more brittle, incorporate a hydrating hair mask in your routine to keep your lightened mane healthy.

Tasha made a strong case for the “clean girl” makeup look with her glowing mien and lustrous pout. While her dewy makeup is the focal point of her beauty look, her glossy poker straight strands fall not too far behind.

Yixin in Paris! Venturing out into the city of love, the 23-year-old who is currently on a family vacation schooled us on the minimalist “French girl” manicure. She kept the length of her digits short and tips rounded and opted for a milky sheer hue with a glazed finish. J’adore.

Nailed Yixin’s frosted mani? As pearly finishes can emphasise dry flaky skin, arm yourself with an ultra-nourishing hand cream such as this subtly-scented one from Chanel. Expect your hands to smell and feel lush.

The “Strike Gold” actress drew attention to her doe eyes with a classic winged eyeliner. She paired her inky lashes with a pretty peachy pout and radiant base.

To cop Ying Ying’s whisper-thin eyeliner flick, a long-wearing, fine tip liquid eyeliner is a must. Pro tip: Sketch out the shape of your wing with a pencil eyeliner before filling it in with your liquid eyeliner to create that razor-sharp line.

Unlike Ying Ying, Tay Ying went the opposite route and chose to leave her eyes bare, letting her high-shine coral pout take centre stage.
