Here’s how Yara Shahidi got her skin to look so good for the 2019 SAG Awards red carpet
There's a $230 face cream involved.
Yara Shahidi is becoming a red carpet veteran, and at the 2019 SAG Awards, she glowed like never before.
While Shahidi's Fendi gown was a scene-stealer in itself, her radiant skin and makeup were really hard not to notice because it was that darn good.
It's true, the "Grown-ish" star has the fountain of youth on her side, but with the added magic touch of her go-to makeup artist, Emily Cheng, her SAG Award glam was stunningly timeless.
To prep for a flawless canvas, Cheng began by cleansing with SK-II Facial Treatment Essence. She gently pressed and patted the product along Shahidi's face and neck for one minute. Once the essence settled and fully absorbed, Cheng dotted SK-II RNA Power Cream on Shahidi's forehead, cheeks and chin. She followed by massaging the cream on Shahidi's skin which created a great base for makeup application.
On Instagram, Cheng posted a photo of the products along with the caption, "Power duo. I promise you the softest skin with these two."
To further enhance the 18-year-old's red carpet beauty, Cheng used Bobbi Brown Skin Long-Wear Weightless Foundation SPF 15 as well as a bronzing powder along the cheekbones.
"I wanted to create something very organic with movement while staying soft and youthful," Cheng said in a statement shared with "GMA" regarding the inspiration behind Shahidi's look. "It reminds me of an oil painting with the different textures and intensity across the eye. And from each angle, it would slightly change."
Shahidi's eyes gleamed with soft whispers of pink, and Cheng used a trio of products swept across her eyelids including Bobbi Brown Luxe Matte Lip Color in Rebel Rose, the same blush used on her cheekbones and Crystal Lip Gloss.
Lips were kept soft and supple with a mix of neutral-toned liquid lipsticks.
The finished look was picture perfect.
