Happy Birthday, Alicia Keys Opens a New Window. ! The award-winning songstress turns 38 on Friday, January 25 (just two weeks away from her Grammy’s hosting gig on Sunday, February 10), and we’re celebrating by paying homage to her minimalist makeup approach that has redefined red carpet beauty.
Over the last few years, the “Girl on Fire” singer has eschewed overly made-up looks in favor of glowing skin and natural hair and, in the process, has helped spark a powerful conversation about the importance of natural beauty and being comfortable in your own skin.
In honor of the music icon’s 38th birthday, we are taking look back at some of her most beautiful no-makeup makeup looks. Keep scrolling to see our favorites!
