Olivia Rodrigo’s Glamorous Looks at the 2023 VMAs

Olivia Rodrigo has had an incredible week, full of achievements and jaw-dropping fashion moments. Let’s dive into the details of her stunning looks at the 2023 VMAs, and get exclusive insights from her makeup artist, Nina Park.

The Pink Carpet: Dripping in Diamonds

Olivia rocked a custom Ludovic de Saint Sernin gown on the pink carpet, and let me tell you, it looked like it was dripping in diamonds! We wanted to keep her makeup fresh and clean, allowing the dress to be the statement piece. To achieve this, Olivia’s makeup artist focused on highlighting her beautiful skin using the Nars Light Reflecting Foundation. The foundation provided seamless coverage with a skin-like finish, while The Multiple Stick in Copacabana added a heavenly glow to the high points of her face. It was all about letting her natural beauty shine!

The Performance: Cherry Bright Red

Oh, the contrast was on fire! For her performance at the VMAs, Olivia changed into a custom red Sandy Liang two-piece set, and her makeup artist decided to go with a stunning cherry bright red look to match the costume. It wasn’t just any old red lipstick though; it was a mix of several shades carefully chosen to perfection.

In the quest for the perfect red lipstick, Olivia’s makeup artist had a clear vision. They needed a true bright red shade, one that perfectly matched the vibrant red Sandy Liang outfit. Not only that, but the texture of the lipstick had to be smooth, hydrating, and packed with pigment. The winning combination? Nars’s Powermatte Lip Pigment in the shade Don’t Stop, accompanied by the Powermatte High-Intensity Lip Pencil in 185 Cruella and the Precision Lip Liner in Porquerolles. To finish off the look, the Afterglow Lip Shine in Triple X added a touch of jaw-dropping shine!

The Key to a Bulletproof Lip

Let’s not forget the secret behind a bold, long-lasting lip that stays flawless throughout a performance. Olivia’s makeup artist loves to use sheer layers to achieve the perfect lip. Starting with a pencil, they then apply a crayon lip pencil lipstick like the Powermatte Lip Pigment. After blotting, they seal the deal with a coat of liquid lipstick, creating a bulletproof combination that feels comfortable and won’t budge.

Conclusion

Olivia Rodrigo stole the show at the 2023 VMAs, not only with her remarkable music but also with her glamorous fashion choices. From her pink carpet goddess look to her electrifying performance, every detail was meticulously planned and executed. Thanks to her talented makeup artist, Nina Park, Olivia’s beauty shined brightly as she graced the stage. We can’t wait to see what’s next for this rising star in the world of fashion and music!
