The first major red carpet event of 2023 is upon us and we can’t get enough of some of the beautiful make-up looks that we’re spotted on the red carpet. Hosted by comedian Jerrod Carmichael, this year’s Golden Globes did not disappoint! We loved them so much that we’ve put together a list of our favourites with some products that would be ideal to experiment with if you have your eye on one of these looks.
Rihanna
Making an appearance at the Global Globes for her nomination of her Black Panther single “Lift Me Up” – Rihanna and her boyfriend ASAP Rocky stole the show with their looks for the evening. RiRi rocked a lovely warm-toned make up look with rosy cold girl aesthetic cheeks and coppery pink eyeshadow. Her look was finished off with a pink glossy lip, very au natural and very cute. The queen of pop didn’t hold back on her hair, styling a creative up which RiRi herself described as Princess Leia meets Hollywood. Her look was effortless and beautiful.
Luckily for us, we don’t have to look far when finding products that are RiRi verified. The Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer is a perfect colour match to the one that RiRi graced us with at the Golden Globe awards. This lipstick gives an irresistible shine to your lips and is the perfect gloss to rock whatever the occasion.
If the warm undertone of Rihanna’s eyeshadow caught your eye then the Fenty Beauty Sun Stalk’s Face and Eye Bronzer and Highlighter Palette is a beautiful palette that has a selection of warm coppery colours that would make your eyes pop just like Rihanna. The bronzed glow this palette gives is undeniably stunning and can be dressed up like RiRi has or used subtly for those no make up-make up days.
Anya Taylor-Joy
A vision in yellow, Anya Taylor-Joy went for a subtle soft glam make-up look this year at the Golden Globes. She wore a golden bronzed with organs undertone that made her brown eyes sparkle. The actress combined this eyeshadow looks with light pink on her lips to tie it together with a natural and simple make-up look.
A lovely warm eyeshadow palette that has that orange undertone similar to the shade Anya styled is the Nars Cosmetics Voyageur Eyeshadow Palette in Copper. This palette is warm and radiant and will go beautifully with any soft glam look you may be trying to achieve.
Continuing the natural and simple make-up look, the Mac Retro Pro Matte Liquid Lipcolour is a beautiful product that has a similar shade to the one Anya wore on the red carpet. The well-pigmented colour is perfect for any occasion and would look great when paired with a bold eye or a natural make-up look.
Margot Robbie
Margot Robbie graced the red carpet with a chic simple look that allowed her peach toned lips to do all the talking. The actress was rocking all things effortless with her look as she wore her hair down in beach waves and a neutral pink tones eyeshadow around her eyes.
The Laura Mercier Matte Eye Shadow in the shade Cashmere is a lovely subtle pink colour that matches the vibe that Margot was rocking on the red carpet perfectly. This eyeshadow shade gives just the right amount of colour to your eyes and is a lovely look if you are after a simple chic vibe.
The Nars Sensual Satins Lipstick in shade Orgasm is a nice peach toned lipstick that will make your lips pop just like Margot. This look is super chic and is one that is perfect to rock for a cute day out.
Jenna Ortega
It wouldn’t be the Golden Globe Awards without one of the most talked about actresses at the moment, Miss Jenna Ortega. A contrast to the soft emo look Wednesday has on the Netflix show, Jenna styles a relaxed look that similar to the others seen at the awards was dazzled with neutral and warm tones. The actress enhanced her doe eyes by styling a winged eyeliner and a light bronzed eyeshadow. There was a glimpse of white eyeshadow or eyeliner supporting her eyes which made them pop! Her make-up look also included a lovely coral blush that tied in her eyeshadow and dress shades.
The Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 Palette has a lovely selection of rosy neutral colours that are very flattering on any eye. These shades are perfect if you want a subtle base to your eye make-up to allow your eyeliner to do the talking.
Adding a sprinkle of white eyeshadow or white eyeliner in the corner of your eyes or on your make-up line is a great beauty hack that allowed your eyes to pop and sparkle. The NYX Professional Make Up Jumbo Eye Pencil is an eyeliner that doubled up as an eyeshadow, so whether your want eyeshadow or liner, the choice is yours.
The lovely coral shimmer that Jenna styles perfectly with her eyeshadow is a great alternative shade if you are not a fan of Barbie pink blush. The Dior Backstage Rosy Glow is a lovely coral-toned blush that will make your cheeks shimmer, just like Jenna’s.
