From darkish female glam to dramatic updos, the Met Gala purple carpet was filled with surprising magnificence moments. However most stunning was the truth that Sydney Sweeney Met Gala 2024 may have doubled for Billie Eilish.
No, actually: Sweeney wore a brief, jet-black uneven bob wig styled by movie star hairstylist Glen Coco, full with full-frontal bangs, that was very Billie-inspired. Often when somebody wears a wig, they appear like themselves simply…sporting a wig. However one way or the other the Anybody however You star was so well-disguised that I, together with just a few different Glamour editors, actually thought she was Eilish as an alternative.
What’s extra, Sweeney’s stunning Met Gala hair juxtaposed along with her floral Miu Miu customized light-blue tulle robe with allover floral crystal embroidery, plus De Beers jewellery, was very a lot giving stylish but edgy Snow White with a touch of Cinderella. I didn}t precisely assume that would translate to “Billie Eilish,” however right here we’re.
As for the make-up behind Sweeney’s magnificence transformation? “The distinction between the black gloves and delicate blue tulle of Sydney’s customized Miu Miu robe impressed me to create a glance that felt edgy, but ethereal and female,” mentioned movie star make-up artist Melissa Hernandez in a press launch. Hernandez used Armani Magnificence to create the look.
Hernandez mastered Sweeney’s excellent, flushed glow with shade 51 of Armani Magnificence Cheek Tint and shade 51 in Luminous Silk Creamy Bronzing Powder. “We created a romantic bubble-gum flush of colour that was the right distinction to the black particulars of her ensemble,” Hernandaz mentioned.
These black particulars in query, after all, embody the jet-black wig, which Coco utilized and styled utilizing Sutra Magnificence’s Wholesome Infrared blow dryer and Sutra Magnificence’s Wholesome Warmth IR2 Infrared 1″ Flat Iron, slicing the wig to a size that complemented her face form.
For pores and skin prep, Hernandez utilized a thick layer of Laneige’s Bouncy & Agency Sleeping Masks onto Sweeney’s pores and skin previous to make-up software, permitting it to soak up for 20 to half-hour. She additionally shared a professional tip for the final word complexion enhance.
“I really like inserting the Bouncy & Agency Sleeping Masks in a bucket of ice for a couple of minutes previous to software. It cools the method, including a refreshing sensation to Sydney’s pores and skin,” Hernandez revealed.
Hernandez then hydrated Sweeney’s pores and skin with Laneige’s Cream Pores and skin Toner & Moisturizer and Water Financial institution Blue Cream Moisturizer, and completed with a coat of the cult favourite (and Glamour editor-approved) Berry Lip Sleeping Masks for the right pout. Basic!
All I can say is…Billie Eilish, if you happen to ever want a stand-in, name up Sydney Sweeney Met Gala 2024.
