Here’s How You Can Recreate SZA’s 2021 Billboard Music Awards Makeup Look
By Brooklyn White · Updated May 1, 2024

Last night, R&B singer SZA stunned on the 2021 Billboard Music Awards’ red carpet in a little black dress, black curls with a platinum blonde highlight and a stunning soft glam makeup look.

“SZA’s red carpet dress was a total show-stopper. To complement its striking silhouette, we wanted her beauty look to be soft and romantic,” Deanna Paley, the makeup artist behind the look said in a press release. “We started by creating a flawless, airbrushed complexion and then accentuated her natural beauty with universally-flattering, sumptuous hues of blush-pink.”

SZA’s entire makeup look was done using Charlotte Tilbury products. Tilbury is an acclaimed British makeup artist and contributing Beauty Editor of British Vogue. Her high quality products aren’t inexpensive, but they are perfect for bringing out your inner glam diva.
