These Golden Globes Looks Prove Red Carpet Beauty Is Back and Better Than Ever
While there won't be a traditional red carpet at this year's Golden Globes ceremony, the award show's trademark glitz and glamour will remain steadfast, as always. Typically, we'd watch our favorite film and television stars spill out of their limousines decked out in jewels and jaw-dropping designer gowns, and 2021 won't be that different—except, of course, that this year's nominees will show off their head-turning fashion and beauty looks from all around the world and via the virtual safety of online attendance.
Keep scrolling for all of the best red carpet beauty moments from 2021's virtual Golden Globes. Cheers!
We can't take our eyes off Awkwafina's eye-catching pearlescent shadow or her over-the-shoulder mermaid-like waves.
Soft pink lips, a subtle dusting of blush, and perfectly defined liner and lashes create the ultimate beauty ensemble for Susan Kelechi Watson.
Zellweger's perfectly mussed bob and radiant complexion are so on point.
This two-toned eye look is everything.
Regina King just made it official: the side part is definitely not dead. In fact, we love it more than ever. (Especially when it's playing alongside a smoldering eye look, glossy nude lip, and radiant skin.)
Haas keeps her red carpet beauty MO chic and sophisticated with a barely-there aesthetic punctuated with a coral-lipstick focal point.
Gadot looks like a classic screen siren from the '40s and '50s with her shoulder-length curls and bold red lips.
There's so much good going on here. For InStyle's beloved #InStyleElevator, Condor's makeup artist, Melissa Hernandez, gave the actress a saturated dose of bubblegum-pink lip gloss, and the cat eye of all cat eyes. (We're also loving this half-up hairstyle!)
We haven't said hello to our red lipstick in a while, but thanks to this artistry from Garner's makeup artist Hung Vanngo, we're about to.
How beautiful is this look from Clemons? We're trying her glossy copper lip and smoked-out eye look ASAP, even if we have nowhere to go.
Fisher knows her way around color, and her bright berry pout is the prettiest accent for her hot-pink gown and signature red strands.
The iconic actress keeps things fresh and radiant with her buttercup gown and peachy glow.
Seafoam plus hot pink plus platinum is officially our new color obsession thanks to this stunning Golden Globes beauty look courtesy of Wiig.
Sixty years later, Fonda still has eyes to kill (those lashes though!) and the best feathery hair on the planet.
Epitomizing minimalism at its finest, González accents her sleek slick-backed hair with a punchy pink pout and a light sweep of liner and mascara.
Is anyone else getting subtle Twiggy vibes from Sedgwick's mascara-lacquered lower lash line? Into it.
What's a red carpet without Salma Hayek? Here, her lush, chocolaty curls and lash-heavy eye look have us swooning.
As if we already didn't love the Bridgerton actress enough, she just made our wildest pink eye shadow fantasies come true with this neon red carpet look.
How kismet is Haddish's gilded makeup vibe with her honey-hued blonde hair and Alberta Ferretti gown.
Cox never misses a beat when it comes to a glamorous red carpet moment, and we're so here for this head-turning braid and beautiful Bordeaux lip (even if it's just from home!).
Dern knows that the classic combination of luminous skin, blotted berry lips, and a voluminous bang can't be beaten.
We literally wait all year to see how Erivo will arrive on the red carpet, and her mile-high lashes and peekaboo purple eye shadow do not disappoint.
Seyfried channels Old Hollywood glamour à la her nominated film role in Mank, completing the look with glossy lips, shining waves, and a siren-like smoky gaze.
Between her sun-kissed strands and high-watt bronze complexion, Cuoco has us craving a holiday in the sun.
From her smoldering mauvy eye shadow to her torso-long braid, everything about Bassett's Golden Globes beauty look is a 20/10.
And just like that, we want to chop our hair into Rudolph's exact chin-grazing bob. (We also can't stop staring at that juicy blush!)
Sleek hair, a peachy glow, and lashes for days. Check, check, and check!
Fey complements her ultra-chic black dress with vibrant pink blush, a touch of petal-hued gloss, and a blowout Farrah Fawcett would be proud of.
Between her piecey blonde strands and her glistening highlight, is it just us, or does Hudson look like a real-life wood nymph (in the best way possible)?
All eyes are on Day after this weekend's Hulu release of The United States vs. Billie Holiday, and we just have to say… This ethereal beauty aesthetic from the nominated singer and actress deserves its own award.
We've missed seeing Robbie on the red carpet. Here, she dons her signature glowy complexion and glossy blonde waves for the 2021 Golden Globes.
Fanning epitomizes our doe-eyed daydreams—from that perfect cat eye to her long, fluffy lashes.
From her crimson strands to her ruby Monique Lhuillier gown, we love the actress in all things red this evening.

She now calls Santa Monica home but grew up in Minnetonka, Minnesota, and studied writing, rhetoric, and communication at University of Wisconsin, La Crosse. She studied abroad in Galway, Ireland, and spent a summer in L.A. interning with the Byrdie and Who What Wear family. After graduating from UW, she spent one year in San Francisco, where she worked as a writer for Pottery Barn Kids and PBteen before moving down to L.A. to begin her career as a beauty editor. She considers her day-to-day beauty aesthetic very low-maintenance and relies on staples like clear brow serum (from Kimiko!), Lawless's Lip Plumping Mask in Cherry Vanilla, and an eyelash curler. For special occasions or days when she's taking more meetings or has an event, she'll wear anything and everything from Charlotte Tilbury (the foundations are game-changing), some shimmer on her lids (Stila and Róen do it best), and a few coats of the best mascara-type product on earth, Surratt's Noir Lash Tint.
