Welcome to my Met Gala best of beauty moments!
Although there was a definite sense of underwhelm when it came to the fashion for many of us, there was plenty to celebrate when it came to the hair and beauty of the Met - so much so that I've also made a video version of this episode!
If you fancy seeing all the celeb looks and trends I'm talking about, the video version is on my YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CharisseKenionYT
I've also made several videos on specific Met Gala looks so check them out over on my TikTok @charissekenion or my Instagram @beautymepodcast. And don’t forget, I would love to know who your favourite or favourites are so feel free to slide into the DMs!
