Guys, I know it's only the morning but in true Monday fashion, it's all kicking off – buckle up. SK and Raven from Love Is Blind have gone their separate ways, we're still dwelling on Tyler and Dianne's Strictly Come Dancing departure and as ever, it's raining outside *sobs in tired*. But (and it's a big but) on a much lighter note, Ariana Grande has just debuted a brand new hairstyle along with an exciting new beauty launch. It's as if the former news has depleted under a ray of sunshine. That is, metaphorically speaking, unfortunately.
To show off the new look, Ari took to her main Instagram grid just short of 24 hours ago with a four-part carousel post. From the first pic, we can see that to accompany her recently dyed blonde hair, she's had a full fringe cut in. And not only that, but her locks have been styled in two low pigtails. Is anyone else getting Y2K primary school flashbacks?
Whilst the hair had us in a trance for quite some time (read: a good five minutes), after scrolling along to the following slides in her post, we were met with two new fragrance launches. In the caption, Ari writes: "december 1 🍨♡🤍
Mod Vanilla and Mod Blush @ultabeauty 🍪🍪🍪🍪🤎🍪🧈🍪☕️🍪🍪".
I'm not sure which I'm more excited about, the hair or the perfumes?! Let's just go with both, shall we?
Oh, and if you've been left wanting more (no, bc same), look no further than her second post in the form of a video reel. See both the hair and perfume duo in action below:
Now, I know Ariana has clearly stated that the products will be available December 1 on Ulta.com but here's hoping that they will soon follow with a UK release. *Cough* We'll be waiting *cough*.
