If you thought singer Bebe Rexha was ruling the 2020 Grammys red carpet like a boss babe last night, you were spot-on in reading her vibe. That was the intention.

Her superstar style may have started with the suit she chose to don for the star-studded occasion, but it also extended to her make-up. Rexha collaborated with Buxom Cosmetics Celebrity Make-up Artist Ash K Holm. “Bebe’s personality is fun-loving, free-spirited and sometimes wild, and that’s what people love about her,” Holm shares with E! News exclusively. “We discussed that she would be presenting and talked about her outfit, and we wanted to match something with that chic boss babe vibe.”

The idea was to keep the look fresh and young, but play into that power vibe that Rexha gives off so effortlessly. The make-up had to be the same. “We went for a clean, effortless make-up and hair look. It was understated yet timeless. The look was a collaboration between the two of us,” Holm says.

To achieve Rexha’s red carpet glam look, Holm relied on some of her favorites. “I went for products that I use on a daily basis like Buxom Cosmetics and Beautyblender,” she explains. “It’s best to use products you are familiar with and believe in for red carpets.” Why? It’s simple. As Holmes puts it, “There’s no time for mistakes when there are a million cameras on the artist for a big night like the Grammys!”

But even though the intention was to have a minimal make-up look, it came with some challenges. “You would think it would be easier to do a minimal makeup look but in most cases it’s not,” Holm says. She aimed to keep the skin light and fresh and add a very thin wing liner, which is where the challenge came in.

“Sometimes a look like this can take even longer than a dramatic look because you need to be so precise and soft-handed in the application,” she explains. So how did she achieve that wing? “With a wet angled brush I used Buxom Cosmetics eyeshadow in shade Unapologetic and wanted to keep the eyeliner very dainty, so I really took my time when applying it. It’s very easy for eyeliner to keep getting thicker when trying to make both sides even, so have patience and take it slow.”

If you ask us, Holm nailed it. Rexha looked stunning last night. And it sounds like she and Holm had fun creating the look.

“I like working with someone who takes risks with their look and who is willing to have fun with it,” she says. “Bebe is never scared to use color and switch up the makeup style. What I love most about her is that she trusts me with her image. It is so important to build a strong relationship between the artist and client. If you can establish this with your client, only magic can happen.”
