These Golden Globes Beauty Looks Just Set the Standard for Award Season
Each January, the Golden Globes kick off award season. (If you're unfamiliar or could use a reminder, I got you. This year's order of award shows is as follows: Golden Globes, Critics Choice Awards, Emmys, Grammys, SAG Awards, and, finally, Academy Awards). The 2024 Golden Globes nominees include the likes of Margot Robbie, Emma Stone, and Jennifer Lawrence. You know what that means, right? Yep, killer beauty looks.
Since this is the first red carpet event of the New Year, it sets the standard for all others that follow. It also sets the standard for beauty trends. Well, it actually dictates beauty trends. Trust me. All you have to do is watch this one award show to get a pretty good idea of what hair and makeup looks will be *it* for 2024. Without further ado, keep scrolling to see the 25 best beauty looks from this year's Golden Globes red carpet.
