BTS’ V is can now add global ambassador to his lengthy list of achievements.

Beyond being a chart-topping artist with hits such as “Butter” and “Dynamite,” the K-pop sensation just received the savvy title from South Korean cosmetics brand TirTir, a brand hallowed for its commitment to diversity in the Asian beauty scene. V, otherwise known as Taehyung, serves as the brand’s first global ambassador.

On Oct. 28, TirTir dropped a teaser image to Instagram of V’s face eclipsed with a focus on the brand’s Mask Fit Red Cushion, a viral product that has garnered TirTir a ton of buzz because of its extensive shade range — 40 shades total — and seamless, blendable coverage. The wide shade range is almost unheard of, especially for South Korean cushion products, giving accessibility to those who couldn’t use cushion foundations before. The foundation, along with all of TirTir’s products, is available to shop at Ulta Beauty and Amazon.

It was later revealed in other Instagram posts that this “new era” for the brand would be spearheaded by the beloved BTS member, and the fans are loving it. A spokesperson for the brand stated in a press release, “V’s expressiveness and sensibility align closely with TirTir’s direction of ‘individuality and diversity.’ We expect that his influence will allow the brand to connect more deeply with consumers around the world.”

TirTir Mask Fit Red Cushion Foundation

A cushion foundation.

V and BTS are major draws, creating buzz wherever they go. This move from TirTir will expose the brand to an all-new global audience, one that is eager to emulate their fave by shopping products backed by him. The cosmetics brand is owned by Goodai Global, the parent company of other hit South Korean cosmetics brands such as Beauty of Joseon and Round Lab. TirTir was founded in 2016. While the brand’s cushion foundation was the viral winner in 2025, its other product deserves just as much love. We’ve compiled a few of our favorites for you to shop below.  

TirTir Milk Skin Toner

A soothing milky toner.

Milky toners have become all the rage in 2025. First, it was Rhode’s Glazing Milk, and then it was Ilia’s The Base Face Milk Essence. Now, TirTir is throwing its proverbial hat in the milky toner ring with its Milk Skin Toner, and it’s just as good as both aforementioned toners. The best part? It’s also the most affordable milky toner we’ve seen on the market yet.

Retailing for $25, the toner is your one stop shop for helping achieve flawless skin thanks to ingredients such as panthenol and ceramide, used to protect and strengthen the skin barrier to maintain hydration. Niacinamide and pro-vitamin B5 also come in clutch to gently brighten the skin, creating an all-over even tone, great for those with constant redness. While regular toners are used to wipe away any dirt, oil or excess makeup, milky toners often come formulated with ingredients that hydrate rather than strip the skin.

A soothing serum with a dropper.

Is your skin in distress? TirTir’s SOS Serum is here to help. Retailing for $25, the product features a water-based formula and is utilized to combat dry and dull skin. Youthful skin is all about radiance and elasticity. As we age, that elasticity and radiance wane, leading to wrinkles. This serum is jam-packed with ingredients such as polyglutamic acid that lock in moisture along with adenosine, a naturally occurring nucleoside that may help improve your skin’s elasticity, potentially reducing wrinkles. To use, we’d recommend applying a generous amount post toner, locking in moisture to help give your skin a plump and glossy finish.

TirTir Hydro UV Shield Sunscreen SPF 50+ Broad Spectrum

A hydrating sunscreen.

Sun protection is non-negotiable. If you aren’t applying sunscreen daily, you run the risk of developing sunspots, aging your face and/or skin cancer. That’s why it’s important to find a sunscreen that fits nicely into your daily routine with a substantial SPF.

TirTir Hydro UV Shield Sunscreen aims to do all that and more. Retailing for $18, the sunscreen boasts SPF 50+, offering a broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays. It also leaves no dreaded white cast, blending into the skin like any moisturizer. Speaking of moisturizer, this sunscreen is also hydrating thanks to three types of hyaluronic acid found in the formula.

TirTir Waterism Glow Tint

A hydrating lip tint.

TirTir’s Waterism Glow Tint has 30 shades to choose from, all for just $8. The water-based formula gives the tint a non-sticky weightless feel that stains the lips for up to 12 hours. The finish is soft and wearable, unlike traditional liquid lips. Plus, the extensive shade range gives prospective buyers plenty of opportunity to find their perfect shade.

Beauty and music go hand-in-hand. Whether you’re strutting onstage in full face, à la Lady Gaga on the Mayhem Ball tour, or getting glammed up to see your favorite musicians in concert, music and makeup give fans an opportunity to express themselves in fun, creative and eye-catching new ways.

There are a plethora of musicians who have gone on to start their own cosmetic brands, from Rihanna and Jennifer Lopez to Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez. (Beyoncé and Shakira both have successful hair care lines but for the purposes of this article, we are only including beauty brands) As a longtime lover of beauty, these brands have always caught my eye because they’re an extension of each musician’s identity and persona, expanding their art and creativity beyond the stage.

Brands backed by the likes of Gaga (Haus Labs) or Halsey’s About Face feature bold offerings with formulas that are just as unique as they are, while Gomez’s Rare Beauty focuses on softer, more wearable tones with user-friendly formulas, mirroring the singer’s everyday makeup. Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty, meanwhile, is glamorous and just as artful as she is, utilizing colors and glittering finishes that remind me of the “Diamonds” singer’s equally bold and experimental fashion choices.

This concept of musicians and makeup isn’t new, of course. Stars like Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Gwen Stefani and even Victoria Beckham have been lending their acclaim to the cosmetics industry since the dawn of time, urging fans to shop everything under the sun from body mists to edible makeup (if you know, you know).

Still, not all celebrity makeup and beauty brands are created equal. Some stars are more involved in the production of their lines, while others may just see them as a — literal — vanity project. Below, I’ve ranked a few of the top musician-owned beauty brands, based on formulas, pricing, uniqueness and accessibility. I’ll be breaking down the pros and cons of each line and diving deep into why they’re ranked where they are.

As for why I got this assignment: I am an avid beauty lover and have been since I was 13, and I have covered the beauty and fashion beats at many different publications over the years, including Allure, WWD, Glamour and now Billboard. If that doesn’t convince you, I have very strong opinions — especially on the beauty industry and its practices.

Read on for the best musician beauty brands that you can buy online right now.

JLO Beauty by Jennifer Lopez

Pros: Beautiful packaging, strong branding identity, focus on body careCons: Outdated product, pricing

Lopez launched JLO Beauty in 2020, and it was made available to the public the next year in 2021. The brand features everything from skincare to body care, with a few makeup products here and there. JLO Beauty’s focus on body care and skincare is what differentiates it from the other brands on this list, making it a standout if you’re looking for coverage beyond just your face.

The packaging is also a big draw for me, with all the gold accents and eye-catching JLO branding. Some of my favorite products from the brand include their That Star Filter Complexion Booster for $39 and That Limitless Glow Sheet Mask 3 Pack for $49. Both those products and the brand’s existing line can be shopped at Revolve.

If I could pinpoint where the brand needs to revamp, I can think of two things: First, the product is outdated, with formulas that have been done before. While Lopez’s skin is amazing, it is likely thanks to the treatments she has had as a world-renowned celeb, not because of her product line. Personally, when I think of JLO, I am not thinking about her skin. I’m thinking about her hit music. She needs to make herself an authority on the subject of skincare if she wants to get people excited about her products. I’m craving more inventive product, even a rebrand if possible — something to further differentiate her brand from the rest.

GVXE

No. 6

GXVE by Gwen Stefani

Pros: Strong branding, affordable pricingCons: Non-inventive products, needs a formula revamp

Stefani began GXVE in 2022 and it was launched in Sephora only a few weeks later. The product line backed by the “Luxurious” singer is exceedingly affordable, boasting strong and eye-catching branding that matches the singer’s own unique sense of style. The product line is also extremely stripped-down, filled with simple and easy-to-use products for the everyday girl looking to get glam.

Some of my favorites from the brand include their Paint It Up Clean 24-Hr Cream Eyeshadow for $10 and the Pick It Up Cream Contour & Talc-Free Powder Bronzer Duo for $14. Every product mentioned, and much more, can be shopped at Sephora.

Where GXVE lacks is inventiveness. The product line is barebones and contains makeup that has been done before, and done better. With a formula revamp, and a quick trip back to the drawing board, I believe the brand could be even greater. I’d like to see new product ideas that fit the 2025 consumer with innovation in mind. With a name like Stefani attached to the line, the brand has the power to do more and go farther.

R.E.M. Beauty by Ariana Grande

Pros: Affordability, cohesive product line, unique range, best basicsCons: Brand identity, consumers are craving something new

Grande’s R.E.M. Beauty launched back in 2021 with an “Ultraviolet” collection. The line has since grown to include skincare and makeup brushes. The line is affordable and tells a cohesive story with products that reflect Grande’s personal tastes. The basics, like blushes, highlighters and lip products, are solid through and through, boasting a healthy range of both experimental and wearable hues. Some of my favorites include the Essential Drip Glossy Balm for $19, Hypernova Satin Matte Blush for $22 and their Hypernova Satin Matte Bronzer for $28. All of these products can be shopped at Ulta Beauty.

The brand’s complexion line is where improvements can be made. The Sweetener Foundation is serviceable, as is their concealer of the same name, but both are not in any way remarkable. It’s something we’ve seen before, a lightweight but full-coverage finish. You’ve likely not heard much buzz about those products for that reason. In general, R.E.M. Beauty’s product line is for those looking for approachable products with makeup that you can trust.

Fenty Beauty by Rihanna

Pros: Inclusivity, affordabilityCons: Too many eggs in one basket, flash-in-the-pan virality

One thing I will always give Rihanna flowers for is Fenty Beauty’s commitment to inclusivity, something that not every brand aims to prioritize. When the brand launched in 2017, Rihanna was almost immediately praised for her line of Pro Filt’r Soft Matte Longwear foundations. At the time, it came in 40 shades, a massive feat for 2017. Since then, the foundation line has included 10 more, bumping the total shade range up to 50.

The brand is also exceedingly affordable, even with a celebrity name attached. No makeup-centric product in the line, including brushes, is over $60. If all that wasn’t enough, the brand is extremely accessible, available in store and online at both Ulta Beauty and Sephora. Some of my favorite products from the Rihanna-backed line include their Bright Fix Instant Brightening + Blurring Powder for $38, Gloss Bomb Stix High-Shine Gloss Stick for $26, Diamond Bomb All-Over Diamond Veil for $43 and Match Stix Contour Skinstick for $32.

A common issue with celeb-run brands, and where Fenty Beauty suffers, is that they really have too many eggs in one basket. With a skincare line, their very own brushes, fragrance line, haircare line and makeup all under one roof, it can be easy to produce product that is uninteresting or of less quality. My belief is that if the brand focused all of its time on makeup, every product would be a slam dunk.

Alana O’Herlihy for about-face

No. 3

About Face by Halsey

Pros: Creative product, unique formula, artistic perspective, beautiful packaging, affordabilityCons: Not for everyone, lack of complexion products

Halsey’s About Face is all about artistic perspective. I fell in love with the brand’s creative product line, which boasts unique formulas with affordable price tags to boot. The makeup line is for those looking for something exciting and inventive out of their beauty products. Some of my favorite products launched from About Face include their Holographic Eye Paint for $19, Cheek Freak Blush Balm for $18, Line Artist Liners for $15 and their Curtain Call – Set & Smooth Loose Powder for $21. You can snag all these products, and more, in store and online at Ulta Beauty.

My only gripes with the brand are that the product can be unapproachable, what with the extreme and unique shades of lip gloss, blush, eyeshadow and even setting powder. About Face’s complexion products are also lacking. The brand has a pretty standard foundation but no concealer, which I find a little odd.

No. 2

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez

Pros: Inclusive packaging, niche market, everyday makeup, clean beauty, easy to useCons: Lacking creativity, simple product range, not for experimental beauty

Selena Gomez’s Rare Beauty was launched in 2019 and filled an inclusivity hole in the beauty market. The product launch was, and is, focused on inclusivity, giving those with disabilities access to makeup that they can actually use (all of the product packaging is easy to open and close, and easy to apply for those with dexterity issues). The makeup itself fits into the “clean beauty” category, with shades and formulas that are standard and less inventive than something like Halsey’s About Face.

If you’re looking for product that works, and works well, with shades and formulas that work for everyone, then Rare Beauty should be your go-to. Some of my favorites from the brand include their Kind Words Lip Liner for $16, Brow Harmony Precision Eyebrow Pencil for $19 and, a sleeper hit, their Rare Fragrance Layering Balms, also for $19. These products are available online and in store at Sephora.

A note: This makeup line is not for those seeking out extremely creative formulas. The product is simplistic, oftentimes lacking creativity. All that to say, don’t expect to be creating colorful looks with Rare Beauty products. You’ll likely have to look somewhere else for that.

Haus Labs by Lady Gaga

No. 1

Haus Labs by Lady Gaga

Pros: Inclusive line, innovative products, quality formula, focus on artistryCons: Product line might not suit everyone’s makeup style, eyeshadow department needs an upgrade, lack of affordability.

When Haus Labs launched in 2019, I was immediately drawn to the brand. It just made sense from an artistic perspective, knowing Lady Gaga’s proclivity for fashion and beauty. The musician is well-known for her striking makeup. It’s been a key part of her identity both on and off stage. The line’s star performer, their Triclone Skin Tech foundation, went viral for its airbrushed finish and buildable coverage, making skin look like skin.

Not only that, but the shade range was impressive, boasting 51 total shades as of 2025. This is another brand focused on artistry, with quality formulas and inventive color stories across the board, reflecting Gaga’s love of maximalist looks. Some of my favorites from the brand include the Triclone Skin Tech foundation for $49, Color Fuse Blushes for $32, PhD Hybrid Hydrating Tinted Lip Oil for $26 and their Cruelty-Free Foundation Brush for $39. All of these products are available online and in stores at Sephora.

My big hang-up for Haus Labs is their affordability. The price tag might be due to Gaga’s name tied to the project, or perhaps the quality of packaging and product. Whatever the case may be, the price tag certainly makes the brand less accessible. The product line is more inventive, which could also deter those looking for more natural, everyday makeup.

After a successful product launch in 2023, Arcane and Fenty Beauty are back together again, and this second collaboration is a major one. The collection launched Monday (Oct. 27), and includes four exclusive Gloss Bombs, all for $22, and a Hydra Vizor Mystery Box for $44. Both products are inspired by the two-season show created by Christian Linke and Alex Yee. The 2023 collection was a major success, selling out quickly upon its release. If you’re a fan of League of Legends and Arcane, you’ll want to snag this collection before it’s gone for good.

Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer: Arcane Collection

Fenty Beauty Arcane-inspired glosses.

The new Gloss Bomb colorways include Risky Rulin, a sparkling warm gold inspired the character Mel; Rogue On Riche$, a shimmering peach nude inspired by Caitlyn; Rebel Rais’r, a vibrant holographic pink inspired by the character Vi; and Kaboom, a holographic black inspired by the character Jinx. Every shade features sparkling reflex, giving the lips a juicy, light-catching look. Every gloss comes in a special Arcane-inspired package, depicting the character associated with the gloss.

Fenty Beauty’s Gloss Bombs are a non-sticky, high-shine formula gloss that delivers pigmented payoff upon the first swipe. The gloss is equipped with an extra large doe-foot applicator that gives users more control of their lip look. No matter the colorway, each formula is equipped with shea butter that conditions the lips, keeping them hydrated while looking absolutely stunning.

Arcane Hydra Vizor Mystery Box Moisturizer Sunscreen + Collector’s Case

A sunscreen and collectors case mystery box inspired by Arcane.

Along with the glosses, fans and followers of Arcane and Fenty will be able to shop a mystery box featuring the brand’s Hydra Vizor Moisturizer Sunscreen packaged in one of four collector’s case. Much like any blind box, you’ll have the opportunity to pull a special package inspired by characters Vi, Jinx, Caitlyn and Mel.

The Hydra Vizor sunscreen contains SPF 30 and is formulated with niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3 that works to strengthen your skin barrier, reduce inflammation and improves the appearance of your skin, among other things. This means that the product not only protects your skin from the sun’s harmful rays but keeps it healthy too.

If you didn’t know, Arcane is based on League of Legends, often referred to as League, an exceedingly popular multiplayer online battle arena video game. Arcane is a sort of spinoff show inspired by the game. It is a science-fantasy drama and a Netflix original that follows the conflict between the cities of Piltover and Zaun, focusing on the origin stories of sisters Vi and Jinx.Both characters are playable in LOL.

The series has major ties to the world of music. In its second season alone, the soundtrack featured a slew of A-list artists including K-pop boy band Stray Kids and Twenty One Pilots, who recorded singles called “Come Play” and “The Line,” respectively, along with Young Miko, King Princess, Stromae, Marcus King, Ashnikko, d4vd, Sheryl Lee Ralph and more.

Solange has shared the secret to her flawless makeup routine with ILIA, and it’s only five steps.

The “Cranes in the Sky” singer cultivated a small collection of products from ILIA titled The Eldorado Ballroom Edit. The edit consists of top products from the brand, including its Super Serum Skin Tint, Limitless Lash Mascara and In Frame Brow Gel.

“When I’m on the curatorial side of my practice with Saint Heron and The Eldorado Ballroom, it’s truly about finding a balance of being rooted in the work, the research and the expression of these performances, but also showing up with the ease of feeling grounded in looking and feeling myself, and my best,” said Solange in a press release.

“As a longtime ILIA fan, I’m grateful to them for allowing me to create the Eldorado Ballroom Edit, one that is rooted in our shared philosophies of natural skin and luminosity so that I really represent my most radiant, joyous and present self for these nights that I hold so close to my heart. ILIA’s and Saint Heron’s brand DNA in art, architecture and design made it a natural choice to partner on bringing the Eldorado Ballroom Edit to life.”

Trending on Billboard

The full edit can be shopped now on ILIA’s website for $133.45 — that’s a $157 value. You can also shop each product separately if you’re not ready to snag five products. We’re breaking down each piece in the collection from serums to eyeshadow sticks to help you make informed decisions before shopping.

Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 in Shade Dominica ST14

A serum-esque skin tint with SPF 40.

It’s a skin tint and sunscreen all in one. Retailing for $48, this product is truly the best of both worlds. The tint offers light coverage that protects the skin from harsh sun thanks to the SPF 40 built right in. The tint comes in a multitude of shades, but for reference, Solange’s is Dominica ST14. Skincare ingredients such as shea butter and squalane help moisturize while aiming to beef up the skin’s barrier.

Squalane is also an anti-aging ingredient that helps smooth the appearance of wrinkles. If you take a closer look at the tint’s ingredient list, the active ingredient is 12.0% zinc oxide. That’s your mineral sunscreen. Sometimes, sunscreens in makeup can leave a white cast, especially mineral sunscreens, but not ILIA’s. To apply, use the dropper to disperse onto the back of the hands or in the palm of your hand; a few drops will do. You can blend out with a stipple brush, buffing in circles, or use your hands. The product is so good that Allure gave it the stamp of approval back in 2020, naming it the best clean foundation.

Limitless Lash Mascara in After Midnight

A deep black mascara in a white and black package.

Looking for lashes with limitless length and volume? Well, look no further than ILIA’s Limitless Lash Mascara. This mascara both lifts and separates lashes, preventing a nasty clumpy look. Solange uses the After Midnight colorway, a jet-black formula.

The formula isn’t flakey and resists smudging for up to 12 hours. We think that the secret to the product’s success is in the brush. The wand’s dual-sided construction is equipped with a multitude of thin bristles. One side features shorter bristles, while the other side is slightly longer. This construction works like a comb for your lashes, separating while evenly coating each strand in the product. Say hello to lash extension-worthy lashes every time.

Eye Stylus Shadow Stick in Opulent

A creamy eyeshadow stick in a champagne hue.

Solange achieves a sparkling eye look in one swipe using ILIA’s Eye Stylus Shadow Stick. Her shade of choice is Opulent, a champagne hue with a dazzling finish. These eyeshadow sticks offer maximum color payoff in numerous shades from sparkling shimmers to vibrant mattes. For our on-the-go makeup lovers, these sticks are easy to use. Just swipe on and blend with your fingertips. Or if you want to be extra, blend away with a fluffy crease brush. These shadow sticks are all about high impact with low effort.

In Frame Brow Gel

A clear brow gel in a black and white tube.

The summer heat is here, which means a lot of sweating. This makes locking down your brows virtually impossible. Not to fear. You can count on ILIA’s In Frame Brow Gel to keep your brows in place no matter the conditions. Retailing for $24, this clear gel is lightweight, sculpting and setting the brows for a fluffy and lifted look for up to eight hours. The formula includes key ingredients such as hydrolyzed quinoa that may help give your brows a fuller look. Simply brush the spoolie up through your brow hairs to shape them as you please. Let them dry and they should remain in place through even the hottest summer days.

Lip Wrap Reviving Balm

A clear lip balm with a shiny finish.

Moisture is key to a plump lip look. Quench your lips’ thirst this summer with ILIA’s Lip Wrap Reviving Balm. The product gives your lips a glossy finish, while nourishing. This barrier-building balm features potent levels of hyaluronic acid and sea succulent, ingredients that impart intense hydration to heal dry and cracked lips.

Beyond the ingredients, the balm is also pleasantly scented with lavender and chamomile, creating a calming effect. It also includes a ceramic applicator that creates a cooling sensation that feels extremely good on hot days. If you’re looking for a product in this edit that leans toward skincare rather than makeup, the Lip Wrap Reviving Balm is for you.

Approved by Y2K baddies and TikTok influencers alike, Lancome’s Juicy Tubes create some of the most kissable pouts around.

The gloss has enjoyed a resurgeance in popularity as of late, likely in part to the revolving door that is the trend cycle. Iconic aesthetics from the 2000s are back in full swing, from clothing to makeup, and Juicy Tubes certainly fit the bill. You can shop the silky gloss everywhere from Lancome’s website to Sephora, Ulta Beauty and even Amazon for just $25.

Lancome Juicy Tube in 20 Lavender Latte

A lip gloss with a shimmering lavender finish.

Dubbed the “original high-shine gloss,” Juicy Tubes were first launched by Lancome in 2000, capitalizing on the frosty and ultra-glossy lip trend of the time. The gloss was so popular that Lancome claims to have sold 20 tubes per minute at the product’s peak.

Juicy Tubes was briefly discontinued in 2018 and made a comeback in 2020.

Lancome Juicy Tube in 05 Marshmallow Electro

A lip gloss with a pink and gold reflect.

Each gloss leaves the lips looking fuller without an overly sticky residue. Juicy Tubes come in three impressive finishes: sparkly, cream and jelly. The lip gloss also comes in a slew of shades — 11 to be exact. The line includes wearable neutrals and vampy browns, allowing for different looks for different skin tones. Some of our favorite shades include 05 Marshmallow Electro, 01 Pure and 20 Lavender Latte.

05 Marshmallow Electro is for our Y2K baddies looking for a high-shine flush to the lips. The gloss is has finely milled gold reflects that work to catch the light, giving the wearer the appearance of a plump pout. 01 Pure is a universal shade with a clear finish that works in tandem with the natural shade of your lips. We’d recommend wearing this gloss with a lip pencil to offer your lips dimension, making the gloss more impactful.

Lancome Juicy Tube in 01 Pure

Finally, 20 Lavender Latte is a new shade for Lancome, and a great one at that. The new addition to the Juicy Tubes family boasts a sheer lavender base with finely milled champagne glitter suspended throughout. Much like 05 Marshmallow Electro, this gloss’ sparkling catches the light to help make your lips look fuller. We think this gloss would look great on darker skin.

No matter what shade you choose, Juicy Tubes will give your lips a boost of hydration that’ll take you back to the days when Britney Spears was on the radio and frosted tips were all the rage.

Rare Beauty Find Comfort Niacinamide Hydrating Body Lotion

A hydrating body lotion with niacinamide.

The ever-hyped Rare Beauty currently has a sale on its Find Comfort lotion at Sephora. The body lotion is fresh and non-greasy, hydrating the skin for up to 24 hours. It’s all thanks to the product’s key ingredient; niacinamide. In simple terms, niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3 that, when used in skincare products, can do a bunch of great things like brighten the complexion, reduce redness and improve skin texture by promotion water retention. It works great in lotions because you want as much moisture as you can to nourish the skin. Fair warning. The Find Comfort lotion is heavily scented, so our sensitive skin folks might want to skip out on this one.

Lancome Hypnôse Drama Instant Full Volume Waterproof Mascara

A volumizing waterproof mascara in black.

Want longer looking lashes in just one coat? Lancome’s Hypnôse Drama Instant Full Volume Waterproof Mascara does just that, and more. The waterproof formula is true to its name, creating major drama and volume that holds up to 24-hours. It’s all thanks to the mascara’s formula which is packed with saturated waxes and intense black pigments that offer maximum lash volume with one swipe.

Teyana Taylor took the stage as a sultry robot at the 2025 BET Awards held Monday night (June 10).

Taylor got the crowd jumping, performing her new single “Long Time” off of her highly-anticipated album Escape Room set to release in August of this year. Beyond her fembot-esque ensemble, the singer’s makeup was on point thanks to the work of makeup artist Yeika Glow who utilized products all from MAC Cosmetics.

“This look was inspired by Teyana’s next era and coming back with her new album. Being part of the creative process of her new awakening: softer girl vibe, but still strong. That couldn’t align with a better brand than MAC,” Glow said in a press release in regards to the makeup look she created. “We were able to focus as artists on telling a story through her look, rather than focusing our time mixing 4 shades of foundation because not all brands cater to brown skin. From the red MAC lip she has worn time and time again, to her own collab with the brand, we are here today to celebrate being soft but strong.”

Wet N Wild Fantasy Makers Color Icon Rainbow Highlighter

A rainbow pressed powder highlighter.

We implore you to wear your pride on your cheeks this Pride with help from Wet N Wild. This ultra-colorful pressed powder highlighter went viral back in 2016 for its color payoff that looks more natural than meets the eye rather than a stripe of color on the cheek. Although the colors in the pan look intimidating, once you swirl your brush into the product and swipe onto the skin, you’re left with a uniform iridescent sheen in bluish-purple hues.

If you’re looking for that highlighter rainbow look, you can take a fluffy eyeshadow brush and work it through the intended colors one by one, applying it to the cheek before blending together for a less uniform rainbow sheen. Whatever application you choose, each color is meant to mix to create a sheen that you can see from space.

Rae’s chosen hue is a mauve tone with flecks of sparkling pigment suspended in the formula that offers the skin a luminous finish, hence the name. In total, you’ve got 10 shades, four of them new, so there’s bound to be something that’ll work for you.

Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Natural Glow Foundation

A foundation with a natural glowy finish.

Rae’s makeup team utilized Luminous Silk Natural Glow Foundation in shade 5.75 light to medium, golden. The foundation is a best-seller for Armani Beauty, and for good reason. Retailing for $69.00, this foundation features a radiant, skin-like finish that offers the complexion a subtle “glow from within” kind of look.

Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Hydrating Face and Under-Eye Concealer

A silky brightening undereye concealer in a hydrating formula.

High-coverage and well-performing like its foundation counterpart, Armani Beauty’s Luminous Silk Hydrating Face and Under-Eye Concealer is a major winner in our book. Rae used shade 5.25 medium with a pink undertone to cancel out any redness under the eyes. The concealer is equipped with a radiant but high-coverage formula that’s dispersed with help from a nifty short doe foot applicator.

Armani Beauty Eye Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Eyeshadow

A long-lasting tinted liquid eyeshadow with a doe foot applicator.

This dreamy and ultra-creamy eyeshadow formula comes in three finishes, metallic, matte and shimmer. Rae sported shade 32S Frost in an icy lilac shimmer. The pastel hue was very 2000s-inspired and brought out the color of her eyes. The secret of this eyeshadow formula is a liquid-to-powder technology that goes on wet so you can blend and dries down so it won’t budge or transfer. That means no fallout and no creasing. The formula consists of pure color pigments in a water-infused formula so you can build up for a higher color payoff without disturbing the layer beneath. No bunching or pilling here.

Armani Beauty Vertigo Lift Longwear Lengthening Mascara

A black lengthening longwear mascara.

Want long lashes without the hassle? The Vertigo Lift Longwear Lengthening Mascara will get you there in a few easy swipes. The “Headphones On” singer wore Armani Beauty’s Obsidian Black shade, a deep and rich pigmented hue with a formula that builds and lengthens without getting clumpy. The wand is equipped with a long and bristled brush that works to define each lash, giving each hair follicle the attention and length it deserves. Smudgeproof and ultra black, the formula also boasts 24 hours of wear time. Rae built up her lashes with this product for a spidery, doll-like look, making the eyes look bigger in turn.

Armani Beauty Prisma Glass Hydrating Lip Gloss with Squalane

A clear hydrating gloss with squalane for moisturizing properties.

For a powerful pout, Rae sported Armani Beauty’s Prisma Glass Hydrating Lip Gloss with Squalane in shade 01 Clear Shine. The chosen shade is clear and not sticky, offering the lips a glassy and plump look. The key to this formula is the added squalane, a naturally occurring oil that offers ample hydration, keeping the lips shiny and moisturized. Clear glosses like these can be used as a sort of lip topper, enhancing the color beneath. If the clear gloss isn’t your thing, the Prisma formula is also available in eight other colors on Sephora’s website.
