Best beauty Instagrams of the week: Fann Wong radiates natural beauty in makeup-free selfie
Au naturel
By Letty Seah -
Here’s a breakdown of the best beauty looks of stars from the past week and some tips on how to achieve them.
The 23-year-old singer-actress who was in Paris with Chanel Beauty served up a gorgeous golden hour selfie while giving us a glimpse into her dreamy life in the city of love. While we can’t get enough of her bronze complexion and winged liner, we could not stop looking at her subtly overlined pout.
Follow Yixin’s lead and add volume to your lips by dabbing liquid lipstick around the edges of your lips before moving into the centre of your pout. This technique allows you to create a plumper shape while still looking natural.
Kawaii. While in Tokyo, the actress attended the opening of Charles & Keith’s new flagship store in the trendy Shibuya neighbourhood, where she swathed her pout in a chilli red hue and painted her under-eye area with a reddish blush.
This makeup technique of blending your blush on the under-eye area and eyelids creates the effect of flushed cheeks you’d get from a night of debauchery. Just make sure to apply lots of blush to the high planes of your cheeks.
Once you’re done admiring Yvonne’s lustrous chestnut brown mane and satiny lavender top, take a moment to appreciate her monochromatic makeup look.
To mimic Yvonne’s matchy-matchy makeup look, apply your bronzer or blusher on your eye socket and diffuse the colour outwards.
A swipe of inky liner on your waterline and lower lash line helps to draw attention to Ying Ying’s doe eyes even more. Despite going heavy on her eyeliner, the “Strike Gold” star opted for a minimal approach to the rest of her beauty look. A brick red pout is all she needs to look jet-set ready.
Pro tip: If you want your eyeliner to survive a long-haul flight, set your winged liner with an eyeshadow of the same hue and an angled brush.
Fann rarely deviates from her go-to, natural makeup look, and it’s not hard to see why. She has naturally rosy cheeks and lips, so there’s really no need to add much product. The 53-year-old star who was on a day out with her 10-year-old son Zed matched her laidback surroundings and went bare-faced for the nature retreat, wearing her hair in an effortless ponytail.
If you’re planning to spend a day outdoors like Fann, always make sure to reapply your sunscreen. Protecting your skin from the harmful UV rays is the easiest way to prevent signs of ageing.
