The Best Beauty Looks at the 2023 Emmys: From Hair to Makeup

TV’s biggest A-listers brought nothing but maximum glamour to the 75th annual Emmy Awards at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on Monday, January 15.

The red carpet at the star-studded ceremony — which originally was scheduled for September 2023 — saw a flood of impeccable fashion ensembles laced with statement-making embellishments (Issa Rae and her fabulous feathered Pamela Rolland dress delivered), timeless velvet fabric, retro influence and sizzling red shades. 

When it came to the beauty looks, celebrities brought their sartorial A-game too. Hairstylists like Gregory Russell and Mark Townsend turned to the past for mane inspiration, finding influence from Hollywood legends like Brigitte Bardot and Catherine Deneuve for their clients.

Makeup remained effortlessly gorgeous. Glam pros focused on achieving fresh and glowing complexions and softly enhancing them with either a sexy eye or a pretty bold pout.

Celebrity hairstylist Gregory Russell crafted a gorgeous “half-up” hairdo with “modern texture” using Great Lengths Tape-In Extensions. Makeup artist Mai Quynh was inspired by the ’60s-esque hair: “I wanted her makeup look to feature a modern eye moment that made her eyes pop. To achieve this, I started by smudging the Chanel Le Crayon Khol Intense Eye Pencil in Noir along her upper and lower lash line. Then, I used Chanel eyeshadows (Chanel Ombre Première Libre Loose Eyeshadow in Mûrier Noir and Chanel Stylo Ombre et Contour Eyeshadow-Liner in Nude Éclat) to define the shape,” she exclusively told Us.
