I'm Obsessed With Sabrina Carpenter's Surprisingly Toned-Down Look
When it comes to personal beauty preferences, I'm definitely a lower-maintenance kinda gal. But boy, do I have the utmost respect for those who go all-out with their hair and makeup. Take Sabrina Carpenter, for example: Her signature look always includes a voluminous blowout and fully dolled-up eyes. I wish I had the time (and team) to do the same on a regular basis. But even full-glam girls like to take a break from the works every now and then, and over the weekend, Carpenter proved she looks just as gorgeous going for a more subtle look.
The award-winning pop star appeared at the Variety Hitmakers event on Saturday night in a strapless, patchwork archival Ralph Lauren dress that couldn't have looked more romantic. And while Carpenter's usually big, softly sculpted hair, false lashes, and ample eye shadow would have looked phenomenal with this style, I love the way she softened things up with a more subdued look.
Instead of perfectly positioned retro volume, Carpenter's hair was styled with loose, borderline messy waves that gave an air-dried feel. Instead of a teased crown and round-brushed curtain bangs, her hair gently, wavily fell in a middle part.
Although Carpenter still opted for overlined lips, dark brows, and a healthy dose of blush, her eye makeup was significantly pared down: just a hint of luminous beige shadow and a coat of what looks like brown mascara on her top and bottom lashes.
After months of touring in tons of makeup and what I assume is a cloud of hairspray, I don't blame her for taking a break from a complete beat, even if just for one night. Looking as lovely as she does either way, it's a win-win.
