To keep the balance, stars of the night ditched heavy layers and wild colors for a more refined approach to makeup. After all, nothing beats enhancing your natural beauty with a sophisticated glow. This intentional simplicity allowed the spectacular gowns to shine, while the faces remained a picture of confident elegance.

A Radiant Canvas
Skin was the most luxurious accessory of the evening as celebrities looked as if they were lit from within. To amplify this, the radiance was smartly paired with glittery highlighters and shimmering eyeshadow.

Golden Hour Glow
Peachy flushes and bronzers were placed strategically on the high points of the face, mimicking the warmth of the last few minutes of daylight. This gentle, warm sculpt made the personalities look sun-kissed.

The Polished Pout
Lips were sleek, full, and very glossy. The colors stayed within the soft range of nudes and pinks, and the focus was entirely on the high-shine sheen for that dimensionally juicy pout.

Some might question the choice of the clean girl aesthetic at such a dazzling event, but it needs to be said that less can be more—especially when it’s executed well. If there was anything the ladies of the Filipino Music Awards proved, it was that a good soft glam look will always be timeless.
