Let’s take a closer look at the week’s most unforgettable beauty moments, celebrating how the stars captivated us with their refined glamour.
The Looks
Makeup
At the CFDA Fashion Awards last week, Ciara delivered one of the night’s standout beauty looks, making a compelling case for the elegance of neutral tones. Her monochromatic makeup featured wispy brows that framed her face beautifully, while softly smoked eyes in rich brown hues created a mesmerizing depth. The addition of fluttery spider lashes added a touch of drama, perfectly complementing her glossy brown lips. A warm brown blush added dimension, while expertly sculpted contouring defined her features, culminating in a look that exuded sophistication and grace.
For the premiere of her In Her Words documentary on Prime Video, Megan Thee Stallion graced the red carpet with a stunningly understated makeup look. Her arched brows framed a soft smoky eye accented with a warm tint, complemented by luxurious lashes that exuded elegance. The sharp contour, paired with matching bronzed cheeks, added depth to her complexion. Completing the look, her lined, glossy nude lips brought a touch of chic refinement to this beautifully demure aesthetic.
Hair
At the CFDA Awards, South African sensation Tyla captivated the audience with an impressive beauty look that perfectly blended edge and elegance. Her hairstyle—a striking combination of a messy updo featuring both textured locs and curly weave—framed her face beautifully, adding depth and character to her ensemble. Complementing this daring hairstyle was her vivid eye makeup, which became a focal point of the look, showcasing her bold style while keeping the overall outfit effortlessly chic.
Toni Braxton’s recent Essence photoshoot beautifully highlighted the allure of full, bouncy hair. Her voluminous black wave radiated effortless beauty, adding a dramatic flair to her classic style. This sophisticated hairstyle showcased how the right hair can seamlessly blend confidence and beauty, making a bold statement.
