This year’s Met Gala, as always, supplied us with a flurry of stunning style, incredible looks, and of course, beauty inspiration.
Emily in Paris star Lily Collins wowed on the red carpet in a gorgeous Vera Wang gown – you may have seen it all over social media. But what about the Lancôme Ambassador’s striking makeup look?
“Lily went to the 2023 Met Gala with Vera Wang. Her black and white dress called for an elegant makeup look, one that’s elevated and timeless,” says Fiona Stiles, celebrity makeup artist..
But how exactly do you get that makeup look? Lancôme have shown us how.
