Ariana Grande has changed so much! See the evolution of her beauty looks
Ariana Grande has evolved from star kid to pop icon with looks that are an inspiration for thousands of fans. Check out the best since 2009
Ariana Grande started her career in 2008 when she starred in Broadway musical 13, for which she won the National Youth Theatre Association Award. Since then, she has accumulated as many hits as beauty looks showing her transformation over the years. Ariana´s signature ponytail and cat eye makeup is the last stage of a style trip where curls, red hair, waves and bangs have been on display.
Take a look at twelve of her most iconic looks for the past ten years and you will realized Ariana has never failed to deliver impeccable makeup and hair on and off stage.
Medium-length, fire-red hair, and lined eyes
At AFI FEST 2009 opening, she wore medium-length hair in an impactful shade of red. She had already begun to accentuate her dark eyes with black eyeliner, while her lips were more discrete with just some gloss.
Ponytail and golden makeup
In 2010, she got the role of Cat Valentine in Nickelodeon's series Victorious, where she also performed the opening song. By that time she attended the premiere of Justin Bieber´s movie Never Say Never with golden makeup and her hair pulled into a high ponytail.
Long curls for a touch of magic
At the premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 in 2011, Ariana went for a very flattering retro look, with a vibrant red wavy hair, swept to the side. The final touch? That lively red shade on the lips. She looked like the perfect Little Mermaid!
Natural look
She loves natural colors as much as bright ones, and here´s the proof. In 2012, when her singing career took off, Ariana polished her look in the search of a more natural image. Still red-haired, the singer went for a matte rose nude lip shade and the accentuated eyelashes she still favors today.
A romantic accessory
The actress, singer, and composer added a dash of romance to the Radio Disney Music Awards 2013 with a floral headband in her already ombre hair. Pink eyeshadow and lip color completed her sweet look.
An asymmetrical half-up pony with soft makeup
Ariana wore this look at the 56th Grammy Awards Ceremony in 2014. Abundant curls flow from an asymmetrical half-up pony framed by a swath of hair swept to the side. A natural lipstick and a heavy lining on the eyes finish this sophisticated look.
Straight hair down with bright pink lips
That same year, it was clear that pink lips, accentuated eye makeup and voluminous lashes were her favorite trends. She also showed that she looks absolutely beautiful with her hair down.
Unconditional love for the cat eye effect and ponytail
The singer of God is a Woman already appeared with her signature ponytail and cat eye makeup back in 2015. She chose the distinctive look to attend the Grammy Awards Ceremony.
An ingenious half-up bun
Ariana loves wearing her hair up, but this time she gave us a great idea for those times when a simple ponytail pulling up all or half of your hair is not enough. What about this ingenious braided half-up bun? Try vibrant red lips for a more striking finish.
Bangs and crimped hair
At the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, she surprised her fans with bangs that gave her beauty look a fresh element and that went perfectly with the crimped hair in her ponytail. Her nude makeup with elegant eyeliner is proof that less is indeed more.
Dark eyeshadow, defined brows
Ariana usually chooses dark eyeshadows and defined eyebrows. In fact, this duo was the best way to walk the red carpet of the 2016 Grammy Awards, where she sported a look where red was the mainstay. An updated ombre, with much more defined ends, totally hit the target.
An icy shade
Between 2017 and 2018, she tried out an icy shade that showed off her dark roots. First, she had silver hair and then she went for a platinum shade. In this picture, she opted to put her ponytail at the back of her neck. Of course, her lashes were also incredibly voluminous.
The best cat eye
At the 2018 Met Gala, with the Heavenly Bodies: Fashion & The Catholic Imagination theme, she showed off a cat eye worthy of emulation. The best thing is compensating the dramatic effect with more discreet, subtle lips. She crowned her hairstyle with a giant silk bow that flowed almost down to her waist.
Back to accessories
At her performance at the 2019 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, the singer confirmed once again that she loves accessories with an original hairband. Which of her beauty looks do you like best?
