Amazing Makeup and Nail Instagram Accounts

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Northwestern chapter.

There are tons of incredible beauty Instagram accounts out there, but that sometimes can get overwhelming. So I’ve rounded up a few of my personal favorites as a great place for anyone to start exploring!

@Hudabeauty

Huda Kattan is a make up artist from Dubai. Her instagram has over 10 million followers and she not only uploads videos of her doing her own make up but also features a lot of other makeup artists’ videos and photos on her account as well. Pictures and videos include cute outfits, nail art, hair braiding, and make up tutorials and hacks.  Huda also has her own Youtube page and website where you can find more extensive tutorials and beauty tips for free!  Huda Kattan is also known for her dramatic fake eyelashes, which she sells online.

@dressyourface

 

Tamanna Roashan is a make up artist and makeup educator from LA. Her instagram has over 2 million followers. Most of her clients come in for Indian or Middle Eastern weddings so a lot of the pictures she puts up are beautiful women with very dramatic eye make up, fierce eyebrows and incredibly flashy accessories. Roashan travels around the world teaching makeup classes, but you can also pay for a subscription to her online classes. Roashan is also famous for all the gift boxes she gives to her students. One of the main items in those boxes is the L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer. You can purchase this concealer, which is perfect for contouring, on Amazon Prime for less than $6, and I’ve loved using the product! Roashan not only has her own line of hair extensions but also eyelashes and intricate henna temporary tattoos.

@LaqueNailBar

There are two Laque nail bars, both located in California. Laque’s nail art ranges from simple matte to huge Swarovski crystals, to miniscule fonts. Celebrity Jeffree Star is a frequent client at this Californian nail bar. Laque also does impressive individual eyelash extensions.

@HouseofLashes

This is the Instagram account for the online eyelash store. Thus, the account features mainly eye makeup that features their store’s eyelashes. It’s really beautiful to see how different makeup artists use these elaborate eyelashes with the overall look of the eye shadow and eyeliner.
