Cardi B’s makeup style hasn’t changed much over time. The rapper favors thick lashes, bold nude lips, and sharp eyeliner.
Cardi B’s makeup artist Erika La’ Pearl revealed her prep routine for the rapper: “She uses makeup remover wipes before she starts anything because she wants to have clean skin. Then she applies moisturizer and a pore-blurring primer to make the foundation go on smoother and softer.”
