As the world fawned over Cardi B in Mugler Fall 1995 couture at Paris Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2021, Tuesday Style Dryer (TSD) was busy securing the deets on the rap star’s flawless face. Dubbed the ‘crystal couture’ look by celebrated, British-born, Rock-blooded make-up artist Pat McGrath, the seamless beat — made extra haute with red crystals — was created by make-up artist Erika La’Pearl using products from McGrath’s make-up brand Pat McGrath Labs.

Here’s How To Get the look:
