Zendaya’s Cleopatra Beauty: A New Take on the Clean Girl Aesthetic
By Kaleigh Werner
If you’ve been following beauty trends lately, you might have noticed a prominent focus on the "clean girl" look—a natural, minimal face with a hint of glow. However, Zendaya has come along to put an end to this trend with her bold new makeup style.
At the "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" premiere in Shanghai on Friday, Zendaya showcased a dramatic Cleopatra-inspired eye look. With imperfect micro bangs and color-washed eyes, she sported a sharp, smoky eye featuring bronze shimmer, charcoal, black, and navy hues. The intense shadow was accentuated by black liquid liner, creating a striking contrast.
This unexpected beauty move from the Emmy-winning actress is a far cry from the recent clean girl trend, proving that makeup innovation knows no bounds.
