To help you get ready for her upcoming UK tour, the experts at Fresha, the global beauty and wellness app, have provided their top tips on her look at home.
Colourful eyeshadow
It’s no surprise that the starting point of Chappell’s look is a bold eyeshadow base! We recommend opting for a bright pink to channel your inner ‘Pink Pony Club’. Buff out the eyeshadow and add a slightly darker colour to add more dimension and colour, such as a light red or purple. Alternatively, a pastel blue is more of a subtle statement for the eyes.The more colourful this look, the better! Pair this trend with some ultra dark mascara or winged black eyeliner and you’re hot to go.
Tight curls
Curly hair has seen a rise in popularity over the last few years, largely from singers such as Taylor Swift and Charli XCX embracing their natural locks. One of Chappell’s hallmarks is her fiery tight curls, but in order to achieve this look,we recommend investing in curl-defining shampoo and conditioner. Once washed, add in some curl defining cream at the ends of your hair and scrunch into small parts in your hands and shape into small ringlets to define the style. While high-quality hair diffusers add volume and dry your hair, a more budget friendly hack is to follow a twisting motion on your damp hair to let it set. Tease your hair out at the crown for extra volume, while applying styling gel to decrease frizz and create a stronger hold. To enhance your look even further, finish with touches of glitter hairspray throughout. We also recommend avoiding any hairstyle that doesn’t follow her signature volume – so put away those flat irons and hairbrushes!
Red blush
Opt for red blush to add a high contrast look that works on every skintone, or it can be blended into a softer tint that still gives you a rosy glow. Use a stippling brush to create circular blush on the apples of your cheeks. If you’re all about multitasking, or want to save some pennies, this is also where the lipstick-as-blush hack comes in. Instead of carrying multiple products, just dab a bit of your favourite red lipstick onto your cheekbones and eyelids and blend with your fingers for a budget-friendly, rosy glow that matches your lips perfectly.
Bold lip
You can have fun exploring vibrant colours on your lips to see which best suits you, whether that’s a signature red or shiny pink. Don’t forget to add lipliner to create a fuller, longer lasting look. You can also place a tissue over your lips and dust with setting powder so that it will stay on all night.
Glitter and Rhinestones
Adding a touch of sparkle is a game changer when it comes to achieving a flawless finish in seconds. Glitter can be added on top of your eyeshadow with a delicate brush or your fingertips, but be careful not to overload with glitter as it can clump around your eyelids. We recommend choosing a colour that accentuates your eyeshadow, rather than hides it.
When adding rhinestones, there’s no need to worry about shaky hands; just place them above your eyelids, stick, peel, and you’re ready to go. Finally, add a primer to ensure the look stays on all night.
