Welcome back to Beauty Marks: the weekly edition of Vogue’s favorite moments in celebrity beauty and the glam of the fashion and pop culture landscapes. Each week, we select the nail art that deserves hanging in the Louvre, celebrity hair transformations, and red carpet glam. It’s as much about celebrity beauty as it is about the makeup artists, hairstylists, and nail artists, as well as the creators crafting the trends you’ll be adding to your Pinterest board.
While last week we were still basking in the afterglow of Coachella and watching everyone from Daisy Edgar-Jones to Sarah Catherine Hook play with the beauty aesthetics and trends du jour, this week, it’s all about the little things. Details! Details! Check out Blake Likely’s glinting gold leaf manicure, and Doechii’s Barbie doll glam that makeup artist Chelsea nails with the sweep of some winking pink blush. Then, there’s Nara Smith’s baby(doll) bangs, and Iris Law’s teeny tiny plaits (a small departure from her head of state position in team pixie). The Last of Us’s Isabela Merced treads boldly into the boho beautysphere, while Vogue favorite hairstylist Evanie Frausto brings their signature stamp to a shoot for Vogue Mexico, revelling in hair gels, acidic color palettes, and choppy cuts. Sophie Sinot, meanwhile, gives Amina Muaddi an icy makeover with the coolest sweep of blue shadow—a tone we’re sure we’ll continue to see all summer long, even as the temperatures begin to creep up. Speaking of summer glows Ngozi Edeme (aka @paintedbyesther) does the business with Abény Nhial and some expert blush and highlight placement—take notes!

Ngozi Edeme (aka @paintedbyesther) gives the model some sun-kissed and glowy summer glam to take notes on—blush travels carefree across the visage, with highlight confidently dusted on the nose bridge and brow bones, and juicy, three-dimensional gloss lips.

Ambitious hair artist tapped by everyone from Lady Gaga to Sabrina Carpenter, Luar, and multiple international editions of Vogue, Evanie Frausto takes us behind the scenes of a latest Vogue Mexico shoot.

Sophia Sinot creates chameleonic beauty with attitude, whether that’s dark disco eyes on Emma Chamberlain or punky studded brows for Doja Cat. This week, Sinot threw it back to the icy blue eyes boldly lined with kohl she gave Amina Muaddi for Paris Fashion Week.

Miley Cyrus’s crunchy curls
Seen out and about in New York City, Miley Cyrus forgoes the vintage-led looks of her forthcoming album Something Beautiful, and instead opts for some rock star locks—her long golden blonde curls are laden—but not overburdened—with texture and weight to give it a fresh-from-the-stage power presence and attitude.

The Last of Us season two has brought us Isabela Merced’s captivating portrayal of firecracker Dina. She’s been just as electric on the press tour, adding this boho beauty look to a stellar run. Here, to wear Chloe in Paris, she opted for a tousled, soft-banged bob, cool-toned eyeshadow, and a glossy nude lip.
