Lupita Nyong o knows how to make an entrance. Last night for an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the actress debuted a pretty in pink look with a surprising twist—and one that s quickly becoming her signature.
Never one to shy away from a daring makeup moment, Nyong o has established herself as a beauty risk-taker, often seen taking shocking shadows and electric washes of color for a spin. For her latest act? A seemingly safe magenta pout to match a metallic pink Bande Noir jumpsuit, all offset with a slightly terrifying pair of honeyed contacts.

After gaining speed on the Fall runways, as models at Balenciaga, Gucci and Rick Owens showed off shockingly chic colorful gazes, Nyong o is now taking the playful trend for another test drive after slipping on a pair of crimson lenses at the premiere of her latest film, Us, last week. And while the award-winning beauty gives a powerful and haunting performance, the actress proves she s equally capable of delivering a stylish scare off-screen.
