Last week delivered a wave of show-stopping beauty moments, reminding us why the stars are the ultimate sources of inspiration. From glamorous Christmas-themed makeup to vibrant, bold hairstyles, celebrities truly pulled out all the stops. Whether gracing television screens or sharing festive snapshots on social media, their looks captivated audiences and sparked new trends.
The allure of these beauty offerings lies in the perfect blend of daring makeup choices and creative hairstyles, each exuding confidence and elegance. As the holiday season ramps up, these celebrity hair and makeup moments are setting the tone for how to slay at upcoming events and gatherings. Here are the standout beauty moments from the past week that left us in awe and inspired to recreate these iconic looks.
The Looks
Makeup
Sarah Jakes Roberts made waves with a family Christmas photo shared on her Instagram, showcasing flawless celebrity hair and makeup. Her sculpted brows framed her face perfectly, while her sultry smokey eye added a touch of glamour to the holiday look. Luscious lashes, contoured cheeks, and a warm blush added dimension and warmth, while the finishing touch—a dark wine lipstick—elevated the entire look with an edgy yet festive vibe. This face beat is a prime example that holiday glam can be bold, striking, and absolutely captivating.
Another standout from the week was Keke Palmer. The actress brought drama this Christmas with a makeup look that solidified her as a glam-conscious celebrity. This time she delivered with a sharp, winged eye look paired with luxurious lashes and defined brows. Her bronzed cheeks and warm blush created a sun-kissed glow, while a bold, matte red lipstick stole the spotlight. This classic yet fierce combination made Keke’s look both timeless and picture-perfect.
Hair
When it comes to hair, Mary J. Blige knows how to do it. Last week, she stole the show with her vibrant submission on Live with Kelly and Mark. The iconic singer rocked a striking ginger weave styled into a semi-updo, proving that bold hair colors are here to stay. This vibrant hue not only complemented her brown skin but also solidified her status as a trendsetter.
Keke Palmer also gave us another dose of hair inspiration with her flipped weave and wispy fringe. As seen in her recent Instagram post, the sleek dark weave paired with a delicate fringe added a soft yet stylish flair to her overall appearance. This hairstyle, combined with her flawless makeup, created a balanced and harmonious beauty moment that definitely deserves recognition.
