Look of the Day: Kelly's Luxe Lashes

Motivation to upgrade your makeup game!
Look of the Day: Kelly's VMA Lashes
Kelly Rowland Vmas
By Tia Williams · Updated October 28, 2020
Last night’s MTV Video Music Awards were filled with tweet-able moments (Jayonce’s fetus, Katy Perry/Kanye awkwardness, Gaga’s gender confusion). But for the beauty junkie in us, it was all about Kelly Rowland’s downright diva-tastic makeup!

The chic chanteuse looked better than ever with her flawless skin, glossy bronze lip and long, lush, uber-battable lashes. To get the look at home, first create a clean canvas with Lancôme Teint Miracle Natural Skin Perfection SPF 15 foundation ($37, nordstrom.com). Define eyes with Almay Black Eye Liner ($5, drugstore.com) and then seal NYX Fabulous Eye Lashes ($4.99, ulta.com) to lashline and swipe on two coats of Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Black ($3.84, target.com).

If Kelly’s stunning face isn’t motivation to upgrade your makeup game, we don’t know what is!
