Cardi B didn’t come to play at the BET Awards Sunday night.
After the rapper turned up the crowd with her performance of “Pressed” with husband Offset, she turned heads again when she popped up on stage to accept the Album of the Year award, rocking a statement-making gold custom Nicolas Jebran dress and strappy gold stiletto Miu Miu heels.
But it wasn’t just her dress that caught our attention (although it did steal the show). Cardi’s glam squad nailed her beauty look, giving us a new colorful golden look to recreate this summer.
Take a peek at the five products you need to nail Cardi B’s BET Awards glam!

1. An Electric Blue Eyeliner
Cardi’s pop of neon blue eyeliner was an unexpected surprise that took her glam to the next level. Try Urban Decay’s Glide on Eye Pencil in Chaos ($22.00, Urbandecay.com) to mimic the color and look.

2. Soft Yellow Eyeshadow
To compliment her dress, there is a soft pop of yellow on Cardi’s lids. To recreate this look, try the Nairobi shade from Juvia’s Place in The Nubian 2 Eyeshadow palette ($15.00, Juviasplace.com). There’s also another yellow golden shade in the palette – Nefertiti – an 18k gold shimmery color that you can use to amp up the shimmer on that shade.

3. A Summer-Perfect Lip
Cardi B’s soft lip hue is perfect for summer. To nail a similar lip color, try Stunna Lip Paint in Unattached ($24.00, Fentybeauty.com) with a splash of lip gloss on top. Go with a nude gloss or Fenty Beauty’s Fenty Glow in Shimmering Rose Nude ($24.00, Fentybeauty.com) for an extra layer of color.

4. A Fierce Lash
This look isn’t complete without a set of dramatic lashes. We love Makeup for Melanin Girls Maryam Cruelty-Free Faux Luxe Lashes ($15.00, makeupformelaningirls.com), which you can wear up to 20 times.

5. A Sun-Kissed Highlighter
There’s nothing like a sun-kissed summer glow that makes skin pop. To re-create Cardi’s glowing skin, go with a highlighter like Danessa Myricks Beauty’s Enlight Illuminator in Warm Bronze Champagne ($24, Danessamyricksbeauty.com).
