By now you've certainly heard, seen and once again been captivated by Queen B's surprise return to the spotlight. And While, we're all dying to get a spot in Beyoncé's 'Formation' lineup, we're also dying to get in good with her the leader of her Glam Sqaud, Sir John, who is the mastermind behind all of her beauty looks in the (soon to be) iconic video. We're still drooling over those glossy pink lids, grey lips and super fresh mani!
Yoncé offers a lesson in barely there makeup sporting matte, nude lips and full brows. To heighten her gaze, she lined her eyes with a natural liner; and completed the look with a simple flush of color on her cheeks.
