While most celebrities are reminiscing about the Met, posting their outfits on Instagram, and story-ing snippets from behind-the-scenes, we’ve kept an eye on what’s going on outside of this event’s radar. This week’s carousel is an assortment of varying aesthetics, and we’re showing it all to you. Ahead—7 non-Met moments that defined this week.
7 Note-Worthy Beauty Moments From This Week
Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga is known to experiment with looks that have pushed the envelope, and redefined the concept of self-expression over the course of her career. And this penchant for self-expression migrates to her eyes every now and then (cue photos of her 5-inch-long falsies at the 2017 Met Gala). This photo is testament. While she’s sporting jet-black throat-cutting flicks on the lids, the American singer’s waterline is accented with white, and her lids are drenched in clusters of white as well. She’s married a blood-red lip with a beach-blonde ‘do, and the contrast between the two colours is striking. And, of course, her love for outlandishly disproportionate falsies comes through.
Jennie
BLACKPINK’s Jennie strikes a pose in all of her K-beauty glory. The Korean singer has proved time and again that she’s not one to shy away from experimenting with her look, but this one’s a nod to her off-stage ‘less is less’ alter-ego, and she pulls it off effortlessly.
Athiya Shetty
When Athiya isn’t posting sun-drenched selfies on Instagram, she’s forgoing her everyday aesthetic, and styling her hair into a cascade of slicked-back waves, and dusting her face with sweeps of peaches and pinks before sashaying down a runway. Though minimal, this look is glamorous and sultry.
Dua Lipa
The day Dua Lipa quits styling her hair into braids, you’ll know something’s wrong. The Don’t Start Now singer marries her Barbie-pink ensemble with dabs of blue on the lids, and weaves her tendrils into micro-braids. Also, can we appreciate her metallic-blue chromatic nails?
Ananya Panday
Ananya’s minimalism is the mainstay of her aesthetic. While the Gehraiyaan actress drowns her waterline in a streak of blue, she sports a rose-flushed glow on her cheeks, and ties the look together with a stamp of barely-there pink on the lips.
Barbie Ferreira
Barbie Ferreira has retired her golden-brunette tresses for a cherry-blossom ‘do, and we’re loving how the cut, in conjunction with the colour, are framing her face. Are we going to see more of this colour of Euphoria? Only time can tell.
Alia Bhatt
Alia is back to posting sun-dripping selfies on Instagram—after a week of indulging us in moments straight out of her wedding. And we’ve gotta say—we missed it.
