Sabrina Fairchild, is that you?
Shimmered lids
The parade of shimmered lids proved that it is the red carpet-approved eye makeup for the minimalists. Kapuso stars like Gabbi Garcia opted for a swish of a gold shimmer eyeshadow to complement her smoky feline flick. On the flip side, Bea Alonzo exhibited a radiant bride-to-be glow on the red carpet. As for the highlight of her look? A heavenly combination of shimmered lids and glossed lips!
Latte lips
Latte makeup is one trend that translated well at tonight’s gala. Miss Universe Philippines 2022 Celeste Cortesi’s beauty entry, for one, featured her play on brown and bronze tones. The result? No-fail face card that is warm and glowy. Elsewhere, Heart Evangelista took a subtle nod to the look with her honey-hued lids and nude lipstick.
Side partings
Call it a case of nostalgia, but side partings have officially made its revival. Beauty pageant titleholders like Miss World 2013 Megan Young and Miss World Philippines 2018 Katarina Rodriguez effortlessly captivated the crowd with their take on the classic hairstyle. To say the least, it only proves that side partings paired with a couple of waves evoke a timeless elegance.
Sultry eyes
Smoky eyes are certainly an it-girl beauty essential, and it’s one sentiment that Miss Universe Philippines 2023 Michelle Dee would agree with. On the red carpet, the titleholder owned the sultry smoky eyes. Her signature eye makeup paired perfectly with her nude lipstick and complementary flip hairstyle. Moreover, leave it to Max Collins to offer a masterclass on how to add a modern cool appeal to the traditional look.
