I’m all for a no-makeup makeup look, as is Selena Gomez. But if there ever was a time to go more glam, it’s at the Cannes red carpet. That’s exactly what the Rare Beauty founder did for her first official engagement at the film festival.
Gomez, who is starring in Emilia Pérez, left her hotel (presumably for the red carpet) wearing a blue-red lip that I quickly identified as the Rare Beauty Lip Souffle Matte Lip Cream in the shade Inspire. It’s the only bright red in the actress’s entire beauty range, so it’s become her go-to for a statement swipe. Despite its matte formula, the air-whipped cream has a light and hydrating feel that won’t emphasize any dry patches. Plus, I can attest that it won’t feather or fade for hours—a must for a red-carpet event. Best of all, it retails for an affordable $20.
