Whereas the remainder of us have been getting as comfortable and comfy as potential over the lengthy Christmas weekend, Cardi B did the precise reverse. The rapper launched a brand new look that actually stands out as a significant departure, even amongst her ever-changing hair and make-up. In truth, we virtually did not acknowledge her at first, which is comprehensible contemplating she appears like an extraterrestrial ice queen model of herself.

Make-up artist Erika La’ Pearl posted a video on Christmas Eve exhibiting Cardi wanting as if she’s embodied a completely new character — and you’ll, too, for those who abruptly switched each hair and eye colours. Her hair, styled by Tokyo Stylez, was essentially the most epic ponytail, completely straightened all the way down to her thighs. The nearly-white platinum shade of blonde was made much more bombshell with numerous quantity on the crown and a swathe of hair wrapped throughout the brow for a retro-meets-modern look.

La’ Pearl’s make-up picked up on the grey and silver tones of Cardi’s outfit, together with the Mothership I Palette, MatteTrance Lipstick in Dream Lover, and Lip Fetish Sheer Color Balm in Clear, all by Pat McGrath Labs. The grayish ombré lips got here along with I went with black eye shadow to line the lip. “I first used this shimmery silver coloration and utilized it within the center, however she wasn’t feeling it, so I wiped it slightly and added this pale nude coloration lipstick,” La’ Pearl tells Attract. That created the grey coloration that echoed the smoky vibes of her eye make-up, which additionally included a wonderfully exact wing.

And that eye make-up was an ideal body for Cardi’s shockingly pale grey — practically white — coloration contacts.
