Ever since Ciara blessed us with the gift of her song "1, 2, Step," the singer, model, and dancer has been a permanent fixture in modern pop culture. For more than a decade since she set foot on the music scene, she has walked countless red carpets, attended plenty of awards shows, and performed on many stages. So it makes perfect sense that Revlon, the behemoth beauty brand, has tapped her as its new global beauty ambassador.
According to Allure, Ciara stated in a press release that she's no stranger to the beauty company. “My name comes from the Revlon Ciara fragrance," she said. "It was a gift given to my mother from my father, and she fell in love with the scent and the name.” Her first campaign will be released Saturday.
While this is Ciara's first beauty partnership, the star has a laundry list of incredible beauty looks. To celebrate her recent announcement, we've compiled some of our favorites within the past year. Click through the slides ahead.
2016 CFDA Awards
For the event, Ciara sported a romantic, bohemian hairstyle with a middle-part and soft waves. She kept her makeup equally whimsical, with natural lips, lids, and cheeks.

Miss America 2017
With a thin, gold choker and chunky highlights, Ciara gave a nod to early-2000s beauty. She added a touch of metallic eyeshadow near the inner corners for a super-subtle, eye-opening effect.

2016 Kids' Choice Awards
Space buns are having a bit of a moment, and she paired the look with an equally bold red lipstick. On Instagram, her hairstylist César Ramirêz wrote, "Someone once said I was most known for #RaverBuns / I said 'Oh Really'?"

2016 Grammy Awards
Ciara swept her hair into a low bun, but left a single, face-framing strand loose. She kept her makeup understated and neutral, with a soft smoky eye to play up her dress.

2016 Met Gala
The Met Gala is one event where all beauty rules go out the door — Ciara made the most of that with this sci-fi-chic look. Her S-waved updo was painted bluish-silver, which played up her gray, kohl cat-eye and highlighted cheeks.

2016 Billboard Music Awards
Ciara debuted wispy, face-framing bangs that drew most of the attention to her dark, smoky eye makeup. While we can't guarantee these are real bangs, they sure are enviable.

Apollo In The Hamptons Benefit 2016
