There have been so many incredible red carpet beauty moments the past few months that I don’t even know where to start. From Lizzo’s slicked-back look at the MTV Video Music Awards to Florence Pugh’s showstopping dress and hair at the Venice Film Festival, let’s just say my Pinterest board has enough inspiration to last me a lifetime. But as a a beauty-obsessed editor, I’ve also come to realize that I can’t stop and quite frankly, won’t stop. That brings us to the current source of my admiration—the 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards red carpet beauty looks. Stars arrived to Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles for the annual awards sporting a variety of looks—from Old Hollywood glamour and rhinestones to trendy cuts like the blunt bob. Keep scrolling and prepare to be wowed—stunning looks ahead.
I can’t even quite pinpoint what exactly makes this look so perfect. The diamond earrings? The ’60s-style hair? The peach lip? All of the above.
Zuri’s smoky bronze shadow with a hint of maroon blush is such a wearable look for fall. Must-have beauty product: Juvia’s Place The Warrior Eyeshadow Palette ($20)
Elle’s look is giving Old Hollywood glamour in the best way possible. Pinned and curled strands with a platinum necklace complement her dress so well.
I’m totally obsessed with Julia’s golden brown eye shadow look here. It really makes her eyes pop. Not to mention those incredible earrings.
I love a rhinestone moment more than anyone, so of course Sheryl’s bedazzled braid made the list. Must-have beauty product: Urban Outfitters Easy Peasy Face Gems ($8)
Christina’s sleek bob is so on-trend. She also opted for a nude lip so her brown smoky eyeshadow could really shine through.
Lily really upped the glamour and went with a sparkly shadow on the lids. Normally, I’d think it wouldn’t work with an equally as sparkly dress, but she balanced the two so perfectly with this look. Must-have beauty product: Urban Decay 24/7 Moondust Eyeshadow ($22).
It really is the little things. Jung used a tiny flower as a hair accessory and it’s so so cute.
Nicole’s hair alone deserves an award here but I’m also all about the rosy blush and gorgeous highlight she’s sporting here. Must-have beauty product: Pat McGrath Labs Skin Fetish: Divine Powder Blush ($39).
Amazingly enough, Issa’s whole makeup look is from affordable brand E.l.f. Cosmetics. Yep, you read that right. Must-have beauty product: C-Bright Putty Primer ($12).
Kaley is definitely leaning into the barbiecore trend and I’m here for it. Who doesn’t love a rosy pink lip?
Never underestimate how good simple makeup and slicked back hair can be. If you were ever having doubts, let Rosario be your proof.
Electric purple eye shadow is so in. Sasheer kept the rest of her makeup pretty simple and went with a super bold eye. Must-have beauty product: Armani BeautyEye Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Eye Shadow ($30).
