Zoë Kravitz Announced An Amazing Makeup Contest

by Katharine McEntee

In May 2016, YSL Beauty announced Zoë Kravitz as the brand's new beauty muse. Months later on Sept. 23, Kravitz shared something that's sure to excite fans: A YSL and Zoë Kravitz makeup contest, offering participants the chance to win the entire line of YSL Vernis À Lèvres Vinyl Cream lip colors. Be still, our Zoë-and-lippie-loving hearts.

That’s right: One lucky winner (chosen by Kravitz) will win the entire Vernis À Lèvres Vinyl Cream lipstick collection, plus an autographed record. Kravitz supplied all of the details of the contest via an Instagram post.

The caption reads, “Calling all my lipstick loving 💄 kings 👑 and queens! Create some lip art. Enter the #contest by sharing your most creative look with any Vinyl Cream lipcolor using #VinylCream for the chance to win the entire collection as well as a signed copy of one of my favorite Vinyl Records! 💿 I will personally select and announce the winner on 10/6. Check out @yslbeauty for the complete rules. Yaaaasssss ! 💋💋💋💋”

It gets better: YSL also posted on Instagram, noting that the winner of the contest will not only get the whole collection of lipsticks, but that they can be personally engraved with messages of the winner's choosing. A new collection of Zoë-inspired lips and they're customizable? This might be one of the best beauty announcements of the month.

Since Kravitz will be selecting the winner herself, it seems only fitting to take a look back on her best beauty grams for inspiration. Scroll down to see some of Kravitz’s best beauty looks and get some inspiration for the moment you (hopefully) win this incredible contest.

1. A Smoky Eye

Accompany your lip color with a heavily lined charcoal eye for a high-fashion YSL look à la Kravitz.

2. A Minimal Face

Try one of Zoë's go-to beauty looks, and keep it simple with minimal makeup and a nude lip.

3. Berry Stained Lips

When in doubt reach for a berry colored lippie and a cool pair of statement sunnies.

4. A Nude Gloss

Try Kravitz's go to red carpet look, a glowy bronze face accompanied by a glossy nude lip.

5. A Rosy Pout

Kravitz makes this girly lipstick look both classic and cool.

6. A Classic Red

Stand out amongst the other contestants with a bright red statement lip.

7. A Glittery Lid

Add some sparkle to your nude lip by coating your lids with a shimmery silver shadow like Kravitz's. Bonus: throw in some cool accessories to offset your awesome beauty look.

8. Liner

Compliment your lipstick with an equally vivid liner, like this glittery emerald green color that Kravitz used to line her lids.

9. Lashes on Lashes

Make your Instagram beauty selfie pop by pairing a cool toned lip with heavy mascara and falsies.

Beauty junkies and music fans alike will be jumping at the chance to enter this contest. In fact, there are already a ton of submissions via Instagram — so what are you waiting for?
