May 24, 2021: Is there anyone on Earth having a year quite like Doja Cat? The answer is a swift and resounding no—the singer has dominated the music charts, been embroiled in controversy, and still came out the other side with some amazing performances. Last night, at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, for example, she solidified her place as a red carpet icon with a geometric negative-space eye look that we want to recreate like, yesterday.
Makeup artist Ernesto Casillas, who has painted the faces of Ryan Destiny, Tiffany Haddish, and plenty of Real Housewives, yet again gave Doja a killer look for the red carpet. Doja has been into an Afro-futurism era for her upcoming album Planet Her, and this graphic eye with a pop of blue to match her necklace is a brilliant addition to this era. Just look at those sharp, spear-like eyebrows.
Casillas achieved the look using a lot of high-end products from brands like Tatcha, NARS, and Pat McGrath for her complexion makeup, according to his Instagram. He didn’t share the shade of blue used on her eyes, only the brand (Suva Beauty), which makes some of the best bright and high-performing colors in the beauty industry. One peek at the brand’s website has us guessing Doja is wearing the shade Freezie or Blue Steel, but we wouldn’t be surprised if it actually turned out to be a mixture of both shades. The rest of the face is finished with a barely-there blush from Pat McGrath, as well as lashes from Rokael Beauty. On the lips, we’ve got a gorgeous terracotta color from Huda Beauty finished off with a NARS lip pencil.
