There are few musicians who radiate heat and soul like Olivia Dean. In a world of cancel tradition and social media overload, her message is so refreshingly easy: we might be good to one another.
At 27, the London-born singer-songwriter has already gained 4 Brit awards and a Grammy. She’s launched two albums, Messy in 2023 and final yr’s The Artwork of Loving. She grew to become the primary feminine solo artist to have 4 singles within the UK high ten concurrently (Man I Want, So Simple To Fall In Love, Good To Every Different and Rein Me In) and she or he’s picked up an entire era of followers because of her joyful anthems.
Even higher, it appears her affinity for kindness extends to how she treats herself. We recognised this again in 2023 when she accepted her very first award – the Rising Star award at GLAMOUR’s Girls of The 12 months – and took the chance in her acceptance speech to squash comparability tradition. “I began to really feel my most stunning when I discovered my independence and I now know that my hair is my superpower and it provides me energy,” Olivia advised us. Carrying her hair in a “Diana Ross second,” that is turn out to be her signature, Olivia insisted “I really feel my most empowered when I’ve my hair like this and it is all huge and it is getting in the best way and it is taking on house.”
However chatting to GLAMOUR right now, it is evident that her strategy to scent, make-up and haircare is as celebratory as ever. Considerate, romantic and endearingly relatable her, solutions cemented the truth that she’s categorically of the girlies (Olivia is aware of her approach round a glowy bronzing hack), and she or he is aware of whats-up in relation to selecting merchandise (she’s swapped heavy brows for a fast fluff of Refy forehead gel). It is seemingly why final yr, Burberry tapped her up because the face of their Her fragrance, as a result of she actually is that woman. This is what Olivia advised us about magnificence…
GLAMOUR: You have got quarter-hour to prepare for a celebration. What are you doing make-up and hair smart?
Olivia Dean: In all probability a slick again bun and easy glowy make up.
What merchandise are all the time in your make-up bag and why have they earned their place there?
Refy forehead gel is my favorite forehead gel in the mean time. Hourglass Blur Balm as a result of they’re so light-weight and flattering. Chanel Les Beiges bronzer as a result of it’s the right bronze shade and goes on so seamlessly.
