But not by much!
Do you think that boundaries betweenmen and makeupare finally coming down?
Lil Nas X arrived at the 2023 Met Gala covered in silver body paint, crystals, and little else.
I think we have a long way to go.
Allure: What kind of makeup are you wearing lately?
I can’t think of a specific product right now, but that’s my go-to.
Lil Nas X accentuates his favorite feature during a photoshoot for his latest YSL Beauty campaign.

[I like] a glossy finish over the face, accentuating the lips.
Allure: Do you have a favorite facial feature?
Lil Nas X accentuates his favorite feature during a photoshoot for his latest YSL Beauty campaign.
LNX: My favorite feature of my face is probably definitely my lips.
They were the parts of my face that I hated the most growing up.
I like to keep a shine on my lips.
I like to keep them moisturized.
Lately, I’ve been trying out the [YSL Beauty] Candy Glaze Lip Gloss.
I think I realized I was hot right along… No, no, no, no, no.
Actually, probably at the very beginning of my fame.
And I’ve always thought I was an attractive person.
Well, at least when I started to grow my facial hair and stuff.
But really around that time when other people would say it to me.
Allure:Has your relationship to the way you look changed since you’ve become famous?
I feel like being here has changed that for me.
And hopefully, it’s changing it for a lot of young people that are watching me.

LNX:The most beautiful thing I can think of?
I have two, Zephyr and Sonny.
Allure:Who is the most beautiful person that you know of?
LNX:Most beautiful person?
Outside of myself, I’d probably go with… Who would I go with?
I can’t think of anyone at the top of my head.
There’s a lot of beautiful people out there though.
Allure: How do you smell?
I can say that.
Allure: Do you do any kind of skin care?
LNX:Any kind of skin care?
I get this one a lot.
Well, I think naturally, my skin is just usually pretty well off.
The best beauty advice Ive received from anyone is to limit my soda intake.
When I do drink soda, I like to go with Pineapple Fanta.
That’s my girl.
