ICYMI: Celebrity beauty moments of the week

Last week, stars offered more striking moments of beauty than usual, favoring progressive lines over intricate details. In other words, there was plenty of sharp contour, unblended eyeshadow, and bleached brows. Hand in hand with their makeup, the hair also had its moment: braids and lace fronts included.

As an example, Aweng Chuol sported an angular, pencil-thin brow beneath a pointy, shiny hairstyle. Her eyeshadow – a pink wing with a black line – was left undiluted on her cat eyes. On the other hand, Justine Skye’s bleached brown eyebrows matched her mixed makeup look, complemented with subtle eyeliner and airbrushed pink. In a more dramatic, matte groove, Latto’s baked-out contour was as sharp as her sharpened brows. Although the intensity of her makeup and cherry red hair was toned down with soft curls and sweet pink lips.

Blond hair also had a moment. Kelly Rowland’s bob in Cannes took on an asymmetrical shape and was paired with an open-nail manicure and blue eye shadow (to match her earrings). In Rihanna’s case, her dirty blonde girlfriend followed her all the strategy to Shanghai. Like a set of red nails and a daring cupid’s bow. Based on all the styles of the week, Isan Elba and Adut Akech opted for natural, heat-resistant makeup with the addition of metallic and French nails.

Below, 7 can’t-miss celebrity beauty moments from the past week.
