1/10
Kim Kardashian
Who isn't familiar with Kim K's makeup look? Since the reveal of her contouring, highlighting and baking methods, women all over the world began to delve into the frenzy as well. We believe these makeup trend stemmed from the queen of reality TV herself!
2/10
Beyonce
Beyonce is all about the bronze. She's doesn't do many trendy makeup looks, but her signature warm complexion and neutral eyes and lips give a foundation to all her stylish hairdos and outfits.
3/10
Lupita Nyong’o
The first thing one would probably notice upon seeing Lupita Nyong'o is her glowing complexion. Her flawless skin is a statement-making makeup look in itself, with just neatly groomed brows, rosy cheeks, mascara and a bright lip being her red carpet beauty look of choice.
4/10
Lily Collins
Lily Collins has brows that anyone could recognise from a mile away. Her dark, bushy brows frame her slim face well and are in good contrast against her fair skin tone. She likes to alternate between a dark, vampy lip and a nude everyday pout.
5/10
Alexa Chung
Fashion's princess of effortless style would be unrecognisable without her choppy locks and minimal makeup. Alexa Chung is usually seen with a flawless complexion and subtle eye makeup such as a small winged tip or soft smokey eyes, accompanied by a nude lip.
6/10
Sofia Vergara
Have we ever seen Modern Family's Gloria with her hair up? We may have to do a double take if she ever does! Sofie Vergara is almost always seen with wavy long tresses and a glamorous brown smokey eye.
7/10
Ariana Grande
Mention 'high ponytail' and 'singer' and you'll probably only have one person come to mind. Ariana Grande's half-updo is her main look, despite recently going platinum blonde on her Instagram. The dramatic cat eyeliner flick is here to stay though, so if you're planning to go as the singer for Halloween, never forget it!
8/10
Lorde
Despite being known previously for her voluminous, curly mane and vampy lips, Lorde has now begun to come into a more refined style that involves a wavier hairdo and more sophisticated minimal makeup.
9/10
Gwen Stefani
The No Doubt singer has been working the pinup look for a while now and it doesn't seem like she'll be retiring from it anytime soon. Gwen's platinum blonde locks and chilli-red lipstick are what most of her fans recognise her for.
10/10
Adele
As we await her much-anticipated comeback, we remember the Hello crooner for her strawberry-blonde hair and 60's eyeliner. If we had the choice, we'd want Adele to do our eyeliner everyday!

From Gwen’s red lips, to Ariana’s eyeliner and high ponytail to Kim’s heavily-contoured look.

What’s Kim without her flawless contour? Or Gwen Stefani without her platinum locks and red lips? Or Alexa Chung without her choppy bob and eyeliner? Many celebs have perfected their beauty routines as they rose to fame and as proven on some, change isn’t always necessary. This has led to them developing their own signature looks, understanding what works best on their features (and hair) the best to suit their individual style.

Getting your signature look down pat has to do with your lifestyle. Whether you have plenty of time to get ready in the morning, or if you’re just not the kind of person to wake up extra early to do the whole highlight/contour/bake charade, it depends on what’s easiest or what you love most for your look. Some find that a red lip brightens their complexion and is vital to look awake everyday, while others prefer the toned-down nude look.

Know what you prefer and if you still haven’t quite gotten there yet, look to the celebs in our gallery above for inspiration.
