    Met Ball Beauty: Joan Smalls

    /

    Joan Smalls by Sir John: Estee Lauder Joan Smalls has done it again: served up another covetable lip for the kiddies.  Of course, Sir John custom-blended this beauty just for the Queen since it was her idea. Sir John recounted the daring decision to The Coveteur: She’s a little tanned right now, so we wanted to play up a glowing radiance, post-sun look, but the purple lip was Joan’s idea. For me, it was really about finding the texture, because she didn’t want anything glossy. We mixed colors together and got really creative. She saw the lip on Instagram. She follows beauty addicts and we compared makeup war stories and found the perfect…

    Gugu Mbatha-Raw by Nick Barose: Juara Skin Care, Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel, Votre Vu and Tom Ford I’ve been reading reports of Gugu Raw-Mbatha being the new “Lupita Nyong’o” but I say, would it be so threatening if we had more than one talented black It Girl in Hollywood? Anyway, on to the makeup! Celebrity makeup artist Nick Barose’s mission was “fresh luminous skin,” which he accomplished by using Juara Skin Care Sweet Black Tea & Ginger Matteying Moisturizer. He told Glamour.com, “Gugu was wearing a green dress that had a gorgeous golden sheen to it, and her jewelry has purple tones, so we went with a subtle eye, incorporating purple…
