Best Beauty, Hair, Makeup Looks

Ready, set, glam! The stars of film and television stepped out for the 83rd Golden Globes on Sunday, January 11, and the style did not disappoint. The Golden Globes is the first major ceremony of awards season — so it’s no surprise that the red carpet at the Beverly Hilton marked a return to high glamour. The gowns turned heads, but it was the beauty looks that had us swooning. Hollywood’s A-list showed off next-level hair and makeup. Let’s get into it!

Modern takes on classic Hollywood glamour reigned supreme. Taking the lead as top trend of the night: bobs of all manner, including voluminous roller sets a la Selena Gomez and Ayo Edibiri, sharp, chin-length looks like Robin Wright’s, and lengthier lobs seen on Elle Fanning and Rose Byrne. While clean, glowing complexions were on full display, some stars wore dramatic maquillage indicative of 2026’s makeup maximalist movement (case in point: Teyana Taylor and Odessa A’zion).

Without further ado: behold the best Golden Globes beauty looks for 2026.

Kate Hudson

The Song Sung Blue phenom stunned with a center-parted chignon styled by Peter Gray using Joico products and peachy-beige cheeks and lips. Makeup artist Tonya Brewer relied on products by Charlotte Tilbury for the demure look, painting lips with K.I.S.S.I.N.G. lipstick in Penelope Pink and layering the Beauty Light Wand in Pillow Talk Original over Unreal Blush Healthy Blush Glow Stick in Peachy Glow.

Audrey Nuna

One of the voices of the KPop Demon Hunters looked runway-ready in woven braids and black lipstick.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas

One of the night’s presenters, Chopra Jonas, showed off enviably sleek strands, bold brows, and the perfect matte rosy-nude pout. The actress’s complexion looked absolutely flawless, perhaps thanks to a bit of skin prep. Makeup artist Morgane Martini swiped on Danucera D22 Tonic, a liquid exfoliator that whisks away dead skin cells and smooths rough spots, before moisturizing with the brand’s Mega Serum.

Ayo Edibiri

Serving old school Hollywood glamour, the nominee for The Bear rocked a voluminous bob and rosewood lips. Her makeup artist, Ernesto Casillas, chose plum and mauve shades for the look “to provide a striking contrast to the silver and emerald brooches on each shoulder” of the star’s Chanel gown. Before applying color, he prepped skin with Chanel Sublimage L’Extrait de Nuit and La Crème Texture Suprême Ultimate Cream before applying color. For the chic lips, he brushed on Chanel Le Rouge Duo Ultra Tenue Ultrawear Liquid Lip Colour in Intense Nude.

Rose Byrne

Bright is right! For the If I Had Legs I’d Kick You winner’s bold pout, makeup artist James Molloy used Chanel Rouge Coco Flash Hydrating Vibrant Shine Lip Colour in Beet, “dabbing pigment into the lips with fingertips to create a beautiful, long-lasting stained effect.” To create her updated ’70s feathered lob, hairstylist Harry Josh used KERASILK Smoothing Blow Dry Cream and Ultimate Hold Hair Spray for “the simple, yet powerful blow-dry look,” the pro says.

Elle Fanning

The Sentimental Value nominee showed off buttery blonde locks and sweet, rosy cheeks. The star’s longtime makeup artist, Erin Ayanian Monroe, blended two hues of L’Oreal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Blushes to get the look — Innocent Flush and Apricot Kiss. A swipe of Colour Riche Lipstick in 580 Peony Pink was the finishing touch.

Selena Gomez

Retro fabulous! The Only Murders in the Building star was the picture of a Hollywood bombshell wearing a waved bob and deep ruby lips. Hairstylist Renato Campora wanted to give a nod to the silver screen sirens of the 1940s, he says, creating a look “full of glamour, precision and quite confidence.” Joico JoiWhip Design Foam at the roots “built structure and lift.” He locked in a pin set with a spritz of Joico Hold Hero High Hold + Shine Boosting Finishing Spray. Longtime makeup artist Hung Vanngo prepped the triple threat’s skin with products by Dr. Althea before highlighting skin and eyes with her line Rare Beauty. Vanngo used products from his newly launched eponymous line for the statement pout. He lined and filled in lips with Hung Vanngo Beauty Longwear Lipliner in Above the Line before pressing on Creamy Matte Lipstick in New York Red.

Connor Storrie

Swoonworthy! The Heated Rivalry hottie rocked an updated Brit boy Oasis-inspired haircut.

Teyana Taylor

The One Battle After Another nominee stunned with waved edges, an extended cat-eye and overlined lips. The secret behind those mega wings? Makeup artist Bella Mayven used Charlotte Tilbury Feline Flick in Panther. For the ultra-glossy lips, she slicked on Tilbury’s Big Lip Plumpgasm in Nudegasm Diamonds after lining with Lip Cheat in Foxy Brown.

Jenna Ortega

Sleek chic. The Wednesday star wore a center-parted, low-slung knot and matte makeup. Before applying color, makeup artist Mélanie Inglessis sculpted Ortega’s cheekbones and jawline using the Ladoura Lumeo Skinlift LED Infusion. She then set to work on a monochromatic toffee nude look using Dior makeup. To add further dimension to cheeks, Dior Forever Skin Bronze in #1 Light Fair was layered with Dior Backstage Rosy Glow in #103 Toffee. The perfect lips were achieved with a trio of essentials: Rouge Dior Contour lip pencil in #229 Rose Spice, Rouge Dior On Stage lipstick in #390 Redwood Star, and Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil in #081 Latte.

Jessie Buckley

The Hamnet nominee glowed with a sleek, short crop and the glassiest skin. For the “polished yet effortless finish,” makeup artist Nina Park was inspired to “create sheer layers, a natural flush and a touch of luminosity.”  She used an underpainting technique for the glowing-from-within cheeks, applying Chanel No.1 de Chanel Lip and Cheek Balm in Healthy Pink under Chanel Les Beiges Water-Fresh Tint in Medium. For the fresh hair look, mane man Bryce Scarlett was inspired by “the energy and elegance of Grace Kelly.” He created the shape by running Goldwell StyleSign Mattifying Paste through strands before finishing the look with a spritz of Goldwell StyleSign Shaping & Finishing Spray.

Justine Lupe

Everybody wants that hair! The comedic actress displayed runway darling mega-long locks with a fresh face. To impart her preternatural glow, makeup artist Tracey Levy prepped skin with products by Bioeffect. After cleansing, she massaged EGF Serum all over the face and neck before popping on a Bioeffect Imprinting Hydrogel Face Mask for 30 minutes.

Odessa A’zion

The Marty Supreme actress paired ’80s-inspired makeup, including an extended brow and eye, with her trademark curls.

Sarah Snook

With shiny, center-parted locks and glowing skin, the All Her Fault actress was the picture of simple elegance. The foundation of the look started with a creamy complexion. Makeup artist Mary Wiles prepped skin before makeup with the G.M. Collin Biocellulose Face Mask, before massaging in G.M. Collin Bota-Peptide Eye Contour and Ceramide Comfort Cream.

Hudson Williams

Hollywood’s sudden heartthrob showed off his delightfully floppy hair and trademark freckles. But it wasn’t just flirty banter that gave the Heated Rivalry star his glow; groomer Aika Flores used iS Clinical’s Pro-Heal Serum Advance+ to boost radiance.

Robin Wright

Nominated for her performance in The Girlfriend, the actress wore one of the hottest trends of the night, a flippy bob.

Tessa Thompson

Wet and wild! The actress showed off mermaid locks and rosewood lips.
