From her early days in Disney to playing Rue Bennett in the 2019 television drama series Euphoria, Zendaya Coleman has really come into her own. Every time she walks the red carpet, we’re left marveling at Zendaya’s gorgeous outfits, flawless makeup looks, and impressive hairstyles. But do you know what sets Zendaya apart from most of her contemporaries? The fact that unlike most, she occasionally does her own makeup for some of her public appearances. A quick look at her Instagram will prove that she’s actually pretty good at it too.
So, as we eagerly wait to see Zendaya in Spider-Man: No Way Home, we decided to share some of our favourite makeup looks that we spotted on her Instagram page. We’ve also added beauty tips for each. You’re welcome.
1. That Golden Hour Glow
Why wait for perfect lighting to get the perfect golden hour selfie for your Instagram when you can just achieve it with makeup? For this makeup look, you’ll need to prep your face with a good colour correcting concealer and foundation. Make sure there are no visible spots or dark circles. Next, you’ll need some blush to add a natural flush to your cheeks. For the lips, go for a baby pink lipstick, a black or grey eyeshadow or kohl pencil. Also, don’t miss how her subtle eyeshadow with the neatly winged corners. Don’t forget to spritz some makeup setting spray to keep your keep your makeup intact day long.
2. Vintage Vibes
If you’re considering something a bit more extravagant this season, you could try this look by Zendaya. We can tell that her outfit is a rare vintage-style outfit, but it’s Zendaya’s makeup that stood out for us. For her eyes, go for extremely long eyelashes, thick black eyeliner, and neatly outlined eyebrows. Don’t miss the white kohl on the outer edges of her eyes to for an elongated effect. For her lips, use a glossy brown lipstick.
3. Keep It Sleek
Try this if you’re looking for a Zendaya-inspired makeup look for work. You need a concealer, bronzer, and highlighter to achieve this minimal beauty look. Next, pick a soft nude lipstick. To achieve the same kind of precision for your lips, we recommend using a lip liner of the same colour or one shade darker. Don’t forget to fill out your eyebrows. Complete this look by using a light brown matte eyeshadow and a black eyeliner.
4. An Absolute Queen
If there’s one person super comfortable in her skin, it’s Zendaya. From bright neons to sober browns, is there anything she can’t pull off? Zendaya’s makeup palette in this photo features beautiful earthy tones where she has matched her lipstick with her outfit. If you plan on trying this makeup look at home, don’t forget to give special attention to your eyes by using a volumising mascara and a matte black eyeliner. Also, while applying brown kohl on your lower lash line, like Zendaya has, don’t go overboard. Just apply it on the inner edge to keep it simple yet striking.
5. Do The Dew
If you’re bored of flaunting matte makeup looks, go for a dewy one like Zendaya in the post. Uniformly apply a primer before moving onto your base. Use a foundation that’s creamy, lightweight, and illuminating. For a dewy effect, you can apply these makeup products using a damp beauty blender. However, it’s the highlighter that does most of the heavy lifting here. Generously apply it on your forehead, upper lip, lower lip, chin, and the bridge of your nose. Complete this look with a nude, glossy, liquid lipstick.
