It seems Selena Gomez celebrated her boyfriend Benny Blanco’s 36th birthday last month by sharing a heartfelt post on Instagram, accompanied by sweet photos and videos of them together. In her post on March 8, Gomez expressed her love for Benny, praising his emotional endurance, talent, humor, and kind heart.

Benny Blanco, who is gearing up for the release of his cookbook “Open Wide: A Cookbook for Friends,” revealed in an interview with TalkShopLive that he and Gomez often cook meals together. He mentioned that Gomez is particularly fond of steak, pasta, and fried potatoes.

Interestingly, March also marked an important milestone for the couple as they had their first virtual date. Blanco sent Gomez a pink card with a flower drawing, commemorating the occasion. Gomez shared a photo of the card on her Instagram Stories with the caption “#Long distance relationship vibes,” highlighting the challenges they face due to their geographical separation.

Selena Gomez, the multifaceted artist, actress, and founder of Rare Beauty, aged 31, brought a vibrant springtime aura to the New York City launch event for her brand’s latest product, the Soft Pinch Luminous Powder Blush, on April 6.

Gomez exuded radiance in a silky pink button-down dress adorned with a subtle paisley pattern. She completed her ensemble with a chic baby pink coat draped over her shoulders, adding a touch of laid-back elegance to her look. Accessorizing with pointed pink pumps featuring delicate ribbons, Gomez perfected her ensemble with a harmonious blend of sophistication and charm.

For a bit of vintage flair, Gomez’s hair was styled into a voluminous, ‘60s-inspired bouffant courtesy of celebrity hairstylist Orlando Pita.

Gomez’s makeup artist Hung Vanngo kept her look feminine, radiant and monochromatic, with soft pink tones used throughout. Of course, the star was wearing her new Soft Pinch Luminous Powder Blush, which combines two fan-favorite Rare Beauty products — the Soft Pinch Liquid Blush and Positive Light Silky Touch Highlighter.

Rare Beauty’s social media revealed after the party that Gomez was wearing the shade Happy for the big night — because she was so happy about the launch!

“I love that our liquid blush is super pigmented and lasts all day and that our highlighters give this amazing sheen that makes your skin look illuminated,” Gomez told PEOPLE about the two products that inspired the new launch.

The Only Murders in the Building star shared that the blush’s six shades — four derived from the Soft Pinch Liquid Blush and two brand new — are designed to be “mixed, matched and layered.”

“Whether I’m on set, going to a red carpet or hanging out with friends, there is really no wrong way to wear it,” Gomez said. “I gravitate towards Cheer for the daytime — it’s such an effortless shade and I love how it brightens up my face.”

The star added that she had “a lot of fun” working on the  launch and that throughout the process, tested out the potential shades on her friends.

“The biggest challenge was stopping at six shades!” she added.

The singer seems to be on a matchy-matchy kick lately. In the campaign photos for her new blush, the singer complemented the radiant new product by wearing a custom satin corset top in baby pink. She also wore high-waisted jeans and a black belt.

The Hope Corset was created by Undone by Kate designer Kate March in collaboration with Gomez’s stylist Erin Walsh. The duo worked together to ensure that the custom, cap-sleeved corset was a perfect color match for the new campaign.
