It’s getting hot in here! One of Gigi Hadid’s six sizzling looks from the iHeartRadio Much Music Video Awards 2016 in Toronto includes her red carpet look: a red Mugler pantsuit with a bold lip that matched. Patrick Ta was responsible for her look on Sunday, June 19, and tells Us Weekly that his inspiration came directly from Hadid.
“Gigi loves a fresh and natural look, but still glam at the same time,” he said. “The inspiration for her look this year came from Gigi herself, which I was able to execute and make it my own. She wanted a bronze and beautiful eye with a bold aspect to it which was the red lip.” The finished product turned out to be what Ta called his “fav red carpet look to date” in a June 20 Instagram.
Ta applied Master Prime Blur + Illuminate to prep the Maybelline brand ambassador’s skin and smoothed on Dream Velvet Foundation for a clean look. He then swept on Fit Me! Bronzer to contour her cheekbones and highlighted with Master Strobe Highlighting Stick.

To brighten her eyes, Ta used a light brown color from the Nudes Palette on her crease and a shade that matched her skin on the lid. For the touch of shimmer, Ta, who works with Shay Mitchell and Chrissy Teigen, used the metallic shade from the palette. To finish, he swiped on two coats of Spider Effect Mascara and touched up her brows with Brow Precise Micro in Blonde, which launches in July.

For the lips, Ta used a flesh-colored lipstick as a base to complement the color on her cheeks. And to create the perfect hue, he combined two shades: Orange Danger and Smoking Red from The Loaded Bolds collection, which features honey nectar that provides a rich finish.
