Saweetie Serves Up Laughs & Fabulousness In This Makeup Tutorial
"Very bougie, very expensive, very exclusive, very icy."
Saweetie gives us a look into her makeup routine and it's a lot simpler than you think. Known for her glam looks and top tier face card, the Icy girl's routine proves that less is more and technique always wins.
However, it wouldn't be a Saweetie video without humor. Throughout the video, she shared hilarious stories from her childhood, including using lip liner instead of an eyebrow pencil to fill in her eyebrows.
Check out the rapper's ASMR makeup tutorial for InStyle below.

Saweetie reveals that she likes to start with the lips and draws her lip pencil over her cupid's bow for a rounder appearance.

She takes the highlighter and dabs it on the side of her finger first before applying it to her face. "Take it slow," she says.

Next, she uses the Z palette to contour her face. "I like to mix a dark brown. This, with a hint of blush," she says. She proceeds to "tap, tap, tap" the brush all over her face.
Bronzer Over Foundation

"I'd rather do bronzer than foundation 'cause once that flash hit your face, you gotta be able to really identify the features," she explains.
"If I don't have no contour, I'm gonna be looking like a blow up doll."
Eyebrows

Saweetie is very serious when it comes to the brows. "We don't like a blocky brow, trust me I used to be that girl. Matter of fact, I used to do my eyebrows with lip liner and nobody told me about it," she reveals.
She shares that it took her watching a makeup tutorial to realize that eyebrow pencils even existed.

She ends her tutorial with the Saweetie-approved setting spray from Benefit Pore-fessional.
