All the peasants (us) awaited the return of the Met Gala queen (Zendaya) to the carpet, and boy was it worth it. We knew she would execute this year’s theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” an expression of Black dandyism to perfection, and seeing her grace our screens she certainly delivered. From chic her hat to her perfectly tailored suit, every aspect of Zendaya’s look was on point. We especially loved her lip look—a nod to the ‘90s.
The ‘90s supermodel lip look with contrasting liner and lipstick has come back in a big way, and now that Zendaya has sported it at the Met Gala, it’s sure to be an inescapable trend. Here’s how to get the look.
Zendaya’s makeup artist, Ernesto Casillas, used Charlotte Tilbury’s new Super Nudes Contour System to sculpt, lift, define and enhance the star’s already striking beauty. Casillas used Super Nudes Shapewear Lip Cheat Duo ($26) in Tan to contour and shadow Zendaya’s lips to create a 3D plumping effect. Then he finished with Big Lip Plumpgasm ($35) in Nudegasm Diamonds in a new shade, Nudegasm Diamonds, to impart a high-impact shine and amplify volume.
