When Cardi B isn’t making waves in the music industry, the iconic rapper is slaying the red carpet and social media with her latest beauty looks. Whether she’s hitting NYFW week or taking risks with her fashion and beauty statements at the Grammy’s, the hot new mama is truly a force of nature. Excitingly, the Bodak Yellow music mogul always keeps her #BardiGang on their toes thanks to her fabulous long-time makeup artist, Erika La Pearl.
