The Beauty Looks We Love At The Golden Globes 2026
The stars are glowing on the red carpet this year …
2026 is the year of the perfect complexion, if the Golden Globes beauty looks are anything to go by. Instead of dramatic make-up statements, immaculate and polished skin finishes, with hints of natural-looking blush, are in this year.
Most celebs opted for low-key, understated nude and skintone shades, including winner (yay!) Jessie Buckley, whose glowing skin and soft pink lip colour were illuminated by the ice-blue silk of her stunning Dior gown.
Nina Park is, without doubt, the celebrity make-up artist of the moment – her signature glowy skin made both Jessie and Emma Stone shine at the Globes. The perfect look to reflect the butter yellow tone of the latter’s chic Louis Vuitton two-piece.
Only a few stars braved a statement lip such as Selena Gomez in Chanel and Rose Byrne with a stronger coral to complement the emerald silk of her Atonement-style Chanel dress.
The best dressed wore polished pieces in sharply cut white, cream or black, with beauty to match: Pamela Anderson in Pandora jewellery and Emily Blunt in Louis Vuitton exuded their natural beauty as always.
Our consensus? A raft of hi-tech, skincare-packed new foundations on the way for spring will give us mere mortals the chance to achieve a fresh-faced finish (think Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk) … even without any additional cosmetic enhancements.
Sleek hair was a key look as expected, from Erin Doherty‘s smoothed-back, high-shine style to Jessie’s signature short bob.
Unlike the old-school Hollywood glamour vibe, messy and loose buns were also a popular choice among nominees, like those worn by Leighton Meester and Brittany Snow. We love to see it.
