Sydney Sweeney’s Vanity Fair Glow: LANEIGE x Armani Beauty Breakdown
Sydney Sweeney brought full-throttle bombshell energy to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, slipping into a sultry, embellished Miu Miu dress that demanded an equally luminous beauty look. To complement her stunning look, makeup artist Melissa Hernandez created a luminous, sculpted beauty moment using a hydration-first approach with LANEIGE before crafting soft, smouldering definition with Armani Beauty.

Skin Prep: The Foundation of a Glow
Melissa’s approach was all about supple, plumped skin that kept its glow all night. “I started with Laneige Cream Skin Toner & Moisturizer—it’s a two-in-one that deeply hydrates like a moisturizer but feels as lightweight as a toner. I love this because it instantly makes the skin feel soft and supple without any heaviness.”
To lock in hydration, she followed with Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream Moisturizer, ensuring Sydney’s skin stayed fresh and dewy without tipping into greasy territory. “It absorbs beautifully and leaves the perfect base for makeup—hydrated but never greasy.”
For the delicate under-eye area, Melissa tapped in Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Eye Cream, warming it between her fingers before pressing it in. This not only kept the area moisturized but prevented concealer from creasing.
To enhance Sydney’s lit-from-within glow, she layered Glowy Makeup Serum onto the high points of her face. “It gives the skin that dewy, fresh-faced glow that lasts.”
And, of course, no bombshell beauty look is complete without a perfectly prepped pout. Melissa applied the cult-favourite Lip Sleeping Mask in Berry, a secret weapon for smooth, soft lips. “Even though it’s meant for overnight, I love using it before lipstick because it softens and smooths without feeling heavy.”
From her flawless complexion to that signature red carpet glow, Sydney’s beauty look proved that great skincare is the ultimate power move.
Flawless Complexion with Armani Beauty


With skincare locked in, Melissa moved on to Armani’s iconic Luminous Silk range for that lit-from-within glow:
- Luminous Silk Foundation in 5.75 for a seamless, radiant base.
- Luminous Silk Concealer in 5 to brighten and perfect.
- Luminous Silk Bronzing Powder in 100 to add soft warmth and definition.
- Luminous Silk Cheek Tint in 62 for a natural flush.
- Luminous Silk Aqua Highlighter in 03 to amplify the glow.
Softly Smoldering Eyes & Defined Lips
Sydney’s signature sultry gaze was achieved with a blend of Armani Eye Tint in 22M, 70 & 12S, creating depth and dimension. Smooth Silk Eyeliner in 4 was used to define the lash line, finished with Vertigo Mascara for fluffy, voluminous lashes.
To tie the look together, Lip Power in 102 provided the perfect neutral lip—not too bold, not too bare, just effortlessly chic.
With flawless skin, soft bronzed tones, and a touch of Armani sophistication, Sydney’s Vanity Fair beauty moment was nothing short of red carpet perfection.
