Live from New York, Ariana Grande took over hosting duties for Saturday Night Live embracing her pink-loving character Glinda from the upcoming Wicked movie adaptation. From her opening monologue to her final sendoff, the 31-year-old made sure to incorporate the bewitching shade into all of her looks –including her makeup.
In a rare look at her off-stage moments, the “Yes, And?” singer took to TikTok on Saturday (Oct. 12) to quickly share her exact lip look for the comedy sketch show, which included makeup from her beauty brand r.e.m. Beauty.
“@arianagrande shows you her galinda-fied lip combo for @Saturday Night Live – SNL 🩰🫧” the caption for the video says.
Grande quickly takes you through her step-by-step routine for creating a lip look worthy of hosting SNL using only products from the celeb-founded beauty brand. The three step process used a lip stain marker, pink lipstick and lip gloss and on a freshly cleaned lip, you can see Grande start out by outlining her mouth with the lip marker. Her trick is to add a line down the center of her bottom lip “cause it adds a cute little pout there,” she says in the video.
From there, you just use your finger and gently smudge the lip liner, then follow up with a layer of pink glittery lipstick from r.e.m. Beauty’s Wicked collab and top your lips with a ballet slipper pink gloss.
Below, shop all the ingredients you need for Grande’s exact lip look.
