This week it’s an unadulterated look back at 8 of my favourite Met Gala hair and beauty moments.
From 'Lil Kim wearing head to toe pink Versace complete with pink wig in 1999, right up until Doja Cat meowed her way down the red carpet as Karl Lagerfeld's pet cat Choupette last year, I'm sharing some stunning hair and beauty looks.
Be sure to let me know if any of these are your faves, or let me know who's your favourite over in the DMs @beautymepodcast on Instagram or say hi over on Threads @charisse_kenion.
