Ariana Grande’s press tour for “Wicked” has showcased a series of glamorous looks that fans can easily replicate at home, highlighting her personal beauty line, r.e.m. Beauty. On December 3, the official r.e.m. Beauty account took to Instagram to reveal the makeup secrets behind Grande’s stunning appearances. Starting off her tour in Sydney, Australia, the 31-year-old singer established a dewy complexion by using her Galinda Glow Drops and Luxury Beautification Undereye Masks. To continue the fresh look, she applied her Sweetener foundation and concealer, warming up her cheeks using the Satin Matte Bronzer and Highlighter Topper. Grande complemented her glitzy Vivienne Westwood ball gown by choosing a soft pastel pink eyeshadow, creating a harmonious look that was accentuated by glittery lip gloss.
As she transitioned to Los Angeles, Grande maintained a similar aesthetic while adding her own twist. Sticking with the same foundation and bronzer, she enhanced her cheeks with the fuchsia Satin Matte Blush named Pinking of U. For an extra pop of color, she emphasized her lips with the r.e.m. Lip Stain Marker, using the shade Booked n Busy to define her Cupid’s bow neatly. Grande then created a stunning gloss effect by combining the Pink Razor gloss with her lavender Chuckie shade, resulting in a glamorous look that perfectly matched her gingham Thom Browne dress, allowing the dress to be the center of attention.
One of the highlights of Grande’s beauty evolution during the press tour was showcased at the Mexico City premiere of “Wicked,” where she wore an eye-catching iridescent Versace dress. To complement this striking outfit, she opted for a soft pearlescent highlighter that added brightness to her cheek and brow bones. The Miss Mercury highlighter provided a radiant touch, while the Ozdust eyeshadow palette contributed to an ethereal effect, leaving her looking nothing short of angelic at the event.
In New York, Grande shifted to a delightful baby pink theme that seamlessly matched her strapless Louis Vuitton dress. Taking a break from her previous Ozdust palette, she opted for her Babydoll collection, skillfully blending a soft pink hue into her crease for variable depth. Grande’s blush application was bolder this time, as she layered the Blush & Lip Stick in the shade Call Back along with her Satin Matte Blush, showcasing her ability to play with colors and enhance her features elegantly while still keeping a cohesive look.
Finally, Grande made a memorable impression at the London “Wicked” premiere, sporting a striking yellow Ralph Lauren gown that was paired with forest green sunglasses—a nod to Glinda’s iconic costume from the Broadway show. Her impeccable makeup included bronzed cheeks, glossy pink lips achieved through the previously mentioned lip stain and Pink Razor gloss, and long, luscious lashes that framed her eyes beautifully. She opted for a soft nude eyeshadow, which allowed her standout features and the vibrant gown to speak for themselves, encapsulating her transformation into the beloved character of Glinda.
Overall, Ariana Grande’s “Wicked” press tour makeup not only reflects her artistry and personal style but also encourages her fans to explore and recreate her glamorous looks through the affordable and accessible r.e.m. Beauty line. Each event allowed her to showcase different facets of her beauty while drawing on the essence of the character she portrays, striking a balance between becoming Glinda and maintaining her signature pop star flair. Through step-by-step product details shared via her beauty account, Grande has made it clear that looking fabulous doesn’t require magical spells, just creativity, the right products, and a bit of inspiration from her extraordinary journey.
