Sabrina Carpenter’s GRAMMYs party makeup blinded us because of this exact highlighter

While she may have been snubbed from an ‘emails i can’t send’ GRAMMY nom, Sabrina Carpenter still brought her absolute A-game to the Pre-GRAMMY Gala.

After a quick reunion with Ice Spice, Lana Del Rey and Jack Antonoff (who all wore matching ‘Reputation’-coded black fits), Carpenter also caught our attention thanks to her practically blinding cheek highlight.

Think we’re exaggerating? Take a look at it for yourself…

And, sure, while we wish we could have made another appearance on the actual night of the GRAMMYs, Carpenter sure made her pre-show appearance memorable with her absolutely stunning makeup look.

As one of the Internet’s current ‘it girls’, we don’t doubt this will be a look many recreate - after all, she’s already gone viral for her Eras Tour makeup looks.

So, without further ado, we break down Sabrina Carpenter’s GRAMMYs makeup look, courtesy of her makeup artist Carolina Gonzlez. 

The base of Carpenter's glow was the Armani Luminous Silk Perfect Glow Foundation ($105 from Sephora), a product beloved for offering a flawless yet natural finish. This, combined with the Luminous Silk Concealer ($73 from Sephora), ensured that the “Feather” singer’s skin looked impeccable, with a luminous sheen that seemed to emanate from within. ins

Highlighting and contouring played a pivotal role in accentuating Carpenter's features, with the Luminous Silk Glow Liquid Bronzer in shades 90 and 100 ($77.31 from Nordstrom) giving her face a sculpted, sun-kissed look. The cheeks were adorned with the Luminous Silk Glow Blush in shade 11 ($72 from Myer), injecting a healthy, youthful flush that complemented her ensemble perfectly. But it was the Fluid Sheer Highlighter ($69 from Sephora) that stole the show, creating the blinding cheek highlight that had her reflecting like a mirrorball.

For her eyes, the REM Beauty Midnight Shadows Eyeshadow Palette ($45 from Selfridges) provided depth and drama, while the Armani Smoothly Silk Eye Pencil ($50 from David Jones) and Eyes to Kill Mascara ($66 from Adore Beauty) defined and elongated her lashes, courtesy of the Velour Lashes Classic X-tensions ($59 from Sephora). These elements came together to create a mesmerising look that was both bold and elegant, ensuring her eyes were a captivating feature.

The final touch was the Armani Lip Maestro in shade 207 ($66 from David Jones). Her lips, perfectly defined and colored, added the finishing stroke to a masterpiece of makeup artistry.
