Lizzo wore a full face of discount makeup to the Vanity Fair Oscars After Party
Lizzo is the absolute queen of bargain beauty.
Remember when she revealed that her entire skin care routine costs less than $60? Because we will never forget.
The singer and rapper is back at it with the discount beauty finds, except this time she and her makeup artist Alexx Mayo dreamed up an entire makeup look for Lizzo's first-ever Vanity Fair Oscar's After Party for less than $60.
Mayo used all ColourPop Cosmetics products to create the '90s inspired look, which featured a thin brow and a nude colour palette.

The exact ColourPop Cosmetics products Lizzo wore to the Vanity Fair Oscar's After Party
To create Lizzo's flawless base, Mayo used multiple shades of the ColourPop Pretty Fresh Hyaluronic Creamy Concealer ($9 from ColourPop) to correct, conceal and illuminate the singer's complexion where needed. The full coverage concealer has a natural finish that still looks fresh on camera and in-person thanks to the hyaluronic acid and coconut water-infused formula.
Lizzo's cheek makeup was our favourite part of Mayo's artistry; the makeup artist layered the creamy ColourPop Stix Blush in 'Pretty Thing' ($7 (usually $10) from ColourPop) with the ColourPop Pressed Powder Blush in 'Just Cruisin’ ($8.40 (usually $12) from ColourPop) to create a cloud skin wash of colour.
To finish, Mayo gently tapped the ColourPop Super Shock Shadow in 'Mighty Morphin' ($7 from ColourPop) onto the centre of Lizzo's eyelids using the pad of his finger. It gave the singer's eye look a beautiful shimmer of light-catching highlight that made her eyes pop. Then the makeup artist applied a healthy layer of the ColourPop Ultra Glossy Lip in 'One Kiss' ($9 from ColourPop) to Lizzo's lined lips for a sumptuous shiny effect.
The price tag on Alexx Mayo's makeup kit wasn't the only thing that surprised us on Oscar's night. This tool was in almost all celebrity makeup artist kits.

Since then, her keen interest in fashion and beauty has landed her gigs as a Digital Content Producer and Beauty Editor with titles like Girlfriend, Refinery29, BEAUTYcrew and beautyheaven. She loves the way seemingly innocuous topics like skin care and style have the ability to put a smile on people’s faces or make them think about themselves a little differently. A big believer in self love and experimentation, Briar has made a point of becoming the Australian beauty industry’s unofficial guinea pig for unusual treatments and daring hair trends.
