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.
