This past week on Instagram was filled with lit-from-within skin and avant-garde makeup.
The Best Beauty Instagrams of the Week: Zoe Kravitz, Adut Akech, and More
This past week on Instagram reminded us to let our natural skin shine through this summer. Zoë Kravitz caught some sunlight while rocking cornrows and a touch of YSL’s Touche Éclat concealer, while model Neelam Kaur Gill rang in her 26th year with a peachy glow and silky strands. As for Adut Akech? She was “giving” major glow while serving up a sleek ponytail.
A plethora of makeup inspiration was provided as well. Model Ceval Omar went for a plum lip and smoky eyeshadow, which served as a nice counterbalance to her apricot-hued lengths. Tracee Ellis Ross proved that a red lip is never a bad idea, wearing Chanel tweed and a long, latex-wrapped braid. Then Willow Smith served up amethyst-tinged accents on the eyes and lips, while asymmetrical lime green shadow was the ultimate avant-garde accent.
Gabrielle Union and daughter Kaavia brought the smiles and sunshine with a shoulder-length bob and gold-beaded braids, respectively. And the ever-inspiring model Stacey Louidor served up another aspirational ’90s-inspired look: black liner on the lips, a mauve smoky eye, and a slicked-back high bun with a spherical embellishment that matched her water-droplet nails. Bringing it all together? A stunning cutout dress and a message about confidence. “ME IN THIS DRESS!!! Can you even believe ?!” she wrote. “I was intimidated when I first got it, but come on stomach! She’s giving you lumps, love handles, [and] stretchies.”
