Seal It With A Kiss: Met Gala 2025

Last night was Met Monday, and the 2025 Met Gala did not disappoint. This year’s theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, paid tribute to the history, elegance, and impact of Black fashion. From bold suiting to detailed craftsmanship, the red carpet was a love letter to dandyism, self-expression, and the power of personal style. The dress code, "Tailored for You," encouraged celebrities to bring their own twist to classic menswear.
The carpet was a masterclass in precision and intention. While sharp lapels and custom suiting stole the show, one of the biggest beauty trends of the night came straight from the edges—literally. Kiss curls made a major comeback, softening strong silhouettes with a touch of glam nostalgia. From Dua Lipa and Sydney Sweeney to Coco Jones, Simone Biles, Angel Reese, and even Bad Bunny, the curl was queen.
Want to get the look? You'll need a few styling products, but the key to that glassy, controlled finish is starting with Semi di Lino Cristalli Liquidi. Here's your step-by-step guide:
Start with clean or damp skin and hair
Choose a small section at the hairline where you want your kiss curl to sit (forehead, temple, or nape). Lightly mist with water if needed.
Apply Semi di Lino Cristalli Liquidi to prep
Warm 1 pump of Cristalli between your fingers. Smooth it over the section of hair, focusing on the mid-lengths to ends. This adds shine and slip while controlling frizz.
Tip: Avoid applying too close to the roots. Too much oil can make it hard to shape.
Add gel or edge control to shape
Layer a small amount of strong-hold gel over the Cristalli-prepped hair. Use your edge brush or a fine-tooth comb to shape the curl flat against your skin. Go for an “S” shape or a small spiral.
Tip: Work slowly and press the curl into place as you go. Don’t worry if it takes a few tries. It’s all about sculpting.
Set with a scarf
Once the curl is in place, lay a silk or satin scarf gently over it and tie it down. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes so the shape sets properly.
Finish with hairspray
After removing the scarf, mist lightly with hairspray to lock everything in. Avoid overspraying to keep the finish shiny, not crunchy.
Kiss curls are having a moment, and it’s your turn to try it. Whether you’re recreating Met Gala glam or just adding a bold detail to your everyday look, this sculpted curl brings instant drama. And with Cristalli Liquidi, the shine is unmatched.
