10 Beauty Lessons to Steal From The ESSENCE Street Style Block Party

They say beauty experts know best, but the second annual ESSENCE Block Party proved that real women have important beauty lessons to impart as well. Take a look at our favorites.

By Deena Campbell · September 14, 2015October 27, 2020
01
Go Tribal

Include traditional African makeup methods in your everyday wear for a touch of uniqueness.

02
Wear Red Lips Anytime

Red lips aren’t just for date night, wear a ruby red lip for any occasion, especially during the day.

Hannan Saleh
03
It’s All About The Brows

Groomed, perfectly-arched eyebrows help balance your features. For best results, like Shana Jackson’s, follow the natural shape of your brows.

04
Minimal is Best

Heavy makeup isn’t always the best option. We spotted Krystal Garner displaying “less is more!”

05
Wear a Hint of Bush

Wearing a soft flush of color creates a flawless look that’s beautiful and natural looking.

Hannan Saleh
06
Bigger is Better

Big hair reigns supreme!

Hannan Saleh
07
Headscarves Are A good Look

A red scarf like Kaone Karo’s is a great compliment to a pretty smile.

Hannan Saleh
08
Your Smile Is Your Biggest Asset

Sure we love a smoky eye or a colored lip, but our biggest asset is our smile.

Hannan Saleh
09
Be Confident

Live the life you want and remember that true beauty comes from the inside.

Hannan Saleh
10
Rock a Halo Braid

A halo braid with a middle part can be easily dressed up or down.
