Our beauty writer brings us some of the beauty trends from the MTV VMA’s red carpet.
Chanel Iman
She is one of the world’s leading models since gracing Victoria Secret with her flawless body and beauty. Chanel was a dark horse on the red carpet and we loved it. The timeless black Smokey eye with a nude lip complimented her leather dress and gladiator style shoes.
Kelly Rowland
Kelly proves the saying that ‘pregnancy makes you glow’. The songstress had a beauty ombre braid, which was paired with a pastel lip. Try this look and complete it like Kelly with a hint of gold eye shadow on the inner corner of your eyes.
Nicky Minaj
We are grateful Nicky has waved goodbye to the pastel green and pink hair at awards and channeled a more demure look. The romantic hair with a side parting gave her an elegant yet soft look. A Cat-eye is a great way to give your eyelashes a fuller look and finish it off with shimmer or light blush just as Nicky did.
Solange Knowles
Calm before the storm seems to be the look queen B’s little sister had. The nude face with bright coloured eyelashes is a great trend to do for an event, be it day or night. The singer completed her look with big waves and not the conventional curls.
Nomuzi Mabena
Our very own TV personality Nomuzi, proudly represented SA as she presented live from the states. Looking bald and beautiful, the MTV base presenter had a bold lip as the focal point on her face with pink shimmer cheeks. Dare to shave your hair for the new spring season?
