Last Week’s Best Beauty Looks Were A Pleasant Collision Of Authenticity And Sass

W

hat’s better than a black woman fully embracing every inch of her melanin with pride and vigor? Multiple Black women doing the same thing, of course! Last week was a magnificent parade of Black beauty as the girls pulled out all the stops to serve looks that not only hit hard but also resonated with their individuality. From Gabrielle Union-Wade’s subtle marvel to Cardi B’s upbeat sensation, the result was a pleasant collision of authenticity and sass.

The Looks

Makeup

Last week, Kerry Washington put her darling face forward to our maximum delight. Her chic look revolved around pink shades, adding a lovely touch to her multi-colored outfit. Her prominent pink lipstick and layered blush played nicely with her well-defined eyes and flawless skin. If you’re looking for a celebrity makeup inspiration for a girly-girly day, this should serve you well.

For the Schiaparelli X Neiman Marcus event last week, Gabrielle Union-Wade shone unhindered in neutral tones, fitting her army green ensemble. Well-filled brows, smokey eyes, nude lips, and strong contour came together delicately, emphasizing her beautiful facial features. The winning argument for a neutral face beat states that regardless of your skin tone, facial features, or ensemble, this doll-up will never let you down. 

Hair

On October 11, Cardi B celebrated her 31st birthday in true style. For the occasion, the mother-of-two opted for an old Hollywood-inspired hairdo featuring a sleek side part and curly updo.

Check out the celebrity makeup and hairstyle inspirations spotted on the stars last week…
