Can she do no wrong? Ariana Grande is shattering the notion that only colourful makeup can make a bold statement. In her latest photoshoot with her beauty brand r.e.m beauty, the singer-songwriter displayed nothing but neutral hues to promote her ‘out of body’ collection. After scanning this look, we have a feeling that Ariana is about to bring back neutrals and make it the ultimate it-girl aesthetic of 2022. We already have things like transparent eyeliner and eye sculpting trending this season, and Ariana’s eye makeup makes a play at both those viral makeup trends. We are excited to try out this hair and makeup look because it’s only giving out glow vibes that we don’t seem to have dabbled enough yet. Here’s how we’re planning to ace this trend.
Ariana Grande’s Neutral Graphic Makeup Look
Step 1: Matte It Happen
Mattify your skin for a smooth and radiant base. Follow a CTM routine and dab on some sunscreen. Apply a makeup primer followed by a matte foundation and blend well on your face and neck. Use concealer on areas that require extra coverage. Set your base by sweeping on translucent powder.
Step 2: Path To Growth
Ariana’s brows look natural AF. You can get her brow look with a growth-boosting soap brow product. Simply brush up your brows and then pick up some of the soap on your spoolie and brush again. Flatten your brows with your fingers so that they look slightly laminated.
Step 3: Dove Wings
This is where the magic happens — in her eyes. Ariana’s eyeshadow may be light-toned but it still has sharp definition. Apply tape at the outer corners to use like stencils so that your eyeshadow is in a winged shape. Blend a blush toned neutral eyeshadow shade all over your lids. Create half wings only on the outer corners with white eyeliner. Swipe on mascara and take off the tape.
Step 4: Under Painting
It may appear that the popstar isn’t wearing blush, but rosy cheeks do make everything better. For a not-so-bold blush look, blend a cream blush on your cheeks and then swipe on a tinted sunscreen so that the blush pigment is slightly muted and more natural. Sweep bronzer beneath your cheekbones and along your hairline and jawline.
Step 5: Pillow-Soft Pucker
Don’t mess up your makeup look with chapped lips. Exfoliate and moisturise before applying lipsticks. Outline your lips with a nude lip pencil and then apply a matte lipstick in a pinkish nude shade to complete the look.
Ariana Grande’s Iconic Ponytail Hairstyle
We all know that the high ponytail is this singer’s signature hairdo, but she’s always playing with textures when it comes to styling her ponytail. In this photoshoot, she chose to keep it sleek and sexy, and we have no complaints. To get her style, first wash your hair with a moisturising shampoo and conditioner. Next, apply serum to damp lengths and blow dry it smooth or straighten it. Set your hair up in a ponytail and secure its base with bobby pins. Swipe on some hair gel only on the hair that’s laying flat on your head for a sleek look with no flyaways. Let the ponytail length be gel-free so that it has a smooth movement.
Go on and try Ariana Grande’s neutral chic makeup look on yourself. It is simple, high-impact, and totally wearable.
