"The Odyssey" press tour has given us some stellar fashion and beauty inspiration. Much of said inspiration comes from Zendaya, who regularly stuns on red carpets with flawless looks courtesy of her longtime stylist Law Roach. For the New York premiere of "The Odyssey" in July 2026, Zendaya pulled off another jaw-dropping appearance, this time channeling angelic vibes. In addition to her floor-length white gown and feathered wings from Matières Fécales, the "Challengers" actor dialed up the ethereal energy with a dewy, no-makeup makeup look. We've witnessed Zendaya's stunning beauty transformation over the years, but this look flatters the fashion icon like none other. 

Zendaya's makeup artist Ernesto Casillas, who worked with the star for the respective global premieres of "The Odyssey," explained how he created the minimalist look. "For the premiere, we wanted the skin to look fresh, luminous, and naturally sun-kissed," Casillas wrote on Instagram. "The makeup was intentionally minimal, with glowing skin at the heart of the look and soft warmth placed where the sun would naturally hit." In order to elevate Zendaya's angelic features with a dewy base, Casillas used products from Prada Beauty, like the Reveal Skin Optimizing Foundation and the Blurring + Micro Correcting Concealer; Zendaya's perfect glowy flush was courtesy of the Touch Cream-to-Powder Blush, with Casillas using a combination of the shades Cherry and Coffee to create dimension. No-makeup makeup can be hard to get just right, but Zendaya and her team are showing us exactly how to rock it in 2026. 

Zendaya is undoubtedly one of today's most influential fashion and beauty It-girls. The "Euphoria" actor makes headlines whenever she steps onto the red carpet, and for good reason. In addition to her fabulous outfits, Zendaya's stunning complexion and perfect makeup are always on point. The no-makeup makeup look she rocked at "The Odyssey" New York premiere brought to mind the times that Zendaya went makeup-free and looked flawless. It's no surprise that the star can rock no makeup effortlessly, given her dedication to keeping her skin healthy. 

In January 2023, Zendaya revealed to GQ that her skincare philosophy involves consistency and simplicity because of her sensitive skin. "I have to do like fragrance-less kind of situations and just keep it really, really simple, like cleanser, moisturizer," the star explained. "[I] don't do too much, because when I start to apply too many layers of things, like too many different masks and too many different things, I break out or I get an eczema flare-up." Zendaya has also discussed how removing makeup before bed is a non-negotiable in her skincare regimen — citing it as her number-one beauty rule to both Glamour and British Vogue. As far as products, the actor has shared that she uses Lancôme UV Expert Aqua Gel SPF 50 as her go-to sunscreen, Shea Moisture's African Black Soap as facial cleanser, and a tube of Aquaphor for on-the-go lip care. Zendaya knows how to look fresh-faced when you don't have makeup, and her streamlined skincare routine proves it.
