Cynthia Erivo’s Glow-Boosting Foundation
The secret to Erivo’s radiant glow? e.l.f.’s Soft Glam Satin Foundation. At the 2025 Grammys, celebrity makeup artist Joanna Simkin used this $8 foundation for medium coverage and to leave skin with a soft, satiny glow. Better yet, it’s available in 36 shades that match a variety of complexions and undertones.
Zoe Saldaña’s Brightening LED Face Mask
LED light therapy is known to boost collagen for a youthful glow, so both Saldaña and Mikey Madison prepped their skin with the Currentbody Series 2 Face Mask for the Golden Globes. Long-term use of the mask will also result in wrinkle reduction and have a plumping effect, so you’ll basically be left with ultra-soft baby skin.
Demi Moore’s Smoothing Complexion Stick
To match her several wins for The Substance, of course, Moore needs a top-tier foundation that provides an even complexion when she’s on stage for her acceptance speeches. And Rokael Lizama found that in the Dior Forever Skin Perfect 24H Multi-Use Foundation Stick for the Golden Globes. It offers ease of application and a creamy formula that blurs and hydrates for up to 24 hours.
Miley Cyrus’ Repairing Hair Oil
To keep the layered strands of Cyrus' Grammys jellyfish haircut moisturized, celebrity hairstylist Bob Recine used the Nexxus Repair & Nourish Lightweight Hair Oil. Infused with rose of Jericho oil, this product locks in moisture and elevates shine without weighing down your strands, making it a great styling oil.
Sabrina Carpenter’s Techy Blow Dryer
Carpenter will never be seen without bouncy volume, but for the 2025 Grammys, hairstylist Evanie Frausto pinned her flowing blonde hair into a curly updo. And, the L’Oréal Professionnel AirLight Pro Silver in tandem with a 1.25-inch metal round brush is how he got the lift she loves.
Emma Stone’s Styling Cream
The most shocking beauty look of the 2025 Golden Globes was Stone’s debut of her Mia Farrow-like pixie cut. Lots of questions were had, but the biggest was how she styles it. Celebrity hairstylist Mara Roszak used the Evergreen Hairstyling Cream from her hair care line, RŌZ, to delicately smooth and place Stone’s baby fringe. If you’re still not convinced, she also used it for Zoe Saldaña’s sleek bun.
Jennifer Lopez’s Texturizing Spray
At the Grammys, Lopez sported voluminous soft waves with the help of the Style on Steroids Color-Safe Texture Spray by Color Wow. Celebrity stylist Chris Appleton applied the product as the last step to ensure that the style stayed in place and the texture lasted.
Doechii’s Neutral Eyeshadow Palette
Not only is everybody impressed with Doechii’s impressive rhymes, but her grey-ish smoky eye and visible face tape on the Grammys red carpet earned a spot in the beauty hall of fame. Makeup artist Dee Carrion used the iconic Naked2 Basics Matte Eyeshadow Palette by Urban Decay to achieve the look. With six neutral shades, it’s got everything you’d need.
Margaret Qualley’s Plumping Face Cream
Qualley is a Chanel girl through and through. During the Golden Globes, the The Substance actor prepared her skin for makeup using the N°1 de CHANEL Cream. This plumping moisturizer smooths and protects skin with a glowy finish.
Charli XCX’s Nude Lipstick
Charli XCX’s grungy makeup always includes a soft lip. For the Grammys, makeup artist Nina Park used the Valentino Spike Valentino Buttery Matte Lipstick in Spike A Pose. This mauvy-nude added a natural-looking velvety sheen to her lips.
