The Golden Globe Awards is the first major red carpet event of the year, and we expect to see some incredible beauty looks on our screens. How can we not? The nominees include Zendaya, Nicole Kidman, Cynthia Erivo, Selena Gomez, and Angelina Jolie, all of whom have served some pretty scroll-stopping hair, makeup, and nail moments in the last few months. (We’re especially looking at Erivo for the latter!)
Our editor eyes are superglued to our TVs and social feeds during award shows, but the Golden Globes are arguably even more significant for us beauty folk. See, the looks we view tonight don’t just set the stage for the upcoming award season; they’re basically the blueprint for beauty trends writ large. If you’re curious about which looks will dominate 2025, just take a scroll through the Golden Globes beauty highlights below. Watch this space, as we’re sure to see stunning iterations all year long.
Margaret Qualley’s fresh-faced glam is so elegant. If you look closely, you’ll see her freckles peeking through.
Zendaya’s glam is really giving Old Hollywood, especially that perfectly curled bob.
Nicole Kidman’s big, voluminous hair is truly a work of art.
Ariana Grande channels Audrey Hepburn with those baby bangs—plus a never-been-worn Givenchy Haute Couture gown.
We’re obsessed with Miley Cyrus’s updo and brow-skimming bangs. Her soft-grunge glam is also on point.
We cannot take our eyes off Demi Moore’s frosty shadow.
This Zoë Kravitz glam is everything. Her dewy skin, baby winged liner, enviously fluffy brows… We’re immediately adding this look to our mood boards.
Elle Fanning has been a major fan of deep side parts lately, and we’re living for it. Plus, her soft, peachy glam is just gorgeous.
The red lip was simply made for Alexandra Daddario. She also cosigns the deep-side-part trend!
After seeing Kerry Washington’s bright-pink blush, we’ll be sticking to solely bubblegum this winter.
Take it from Cate Blanchett: The tucked bob isn’t going anywhere in 2025.
Anna Sawai’s soft, face-framing tendrils are just so pretty. We also see a very chic knotted ponytail…
We’re swooning over Dakota Fanning’s velvety red lip! It’s classic and glamorous.
