Pretty in Pink

Zendaya’s sensational Tom Ford hot pink chest plate stole the show at last weekend’s Critics’ Choice Movie Awards, but her pretty in pink beauty look deserves a moment of your time. The swipe of hot pink shadow paired with a lightly glossed lip has us dreaming of spring. And those floor-length box braids deserve an award or a standing ovation, at the very least.

Sunset Eye

That flick of eyeliner at the end might be the most satisfying thing we’ve seen all week. One could say it’s “the perfect sunset” to your week.
