Lupita Nyong'o was one of the top 2020 SAG Awards beauty looks of the night

Last year, the Screen Actors Guild Awards ushered hair ribbons and Lucy Boynton's experimental eyeliner into the spotlight. Awards season seems to have that sort of effect on things, so what beauty looks will the SAG Awards bring to 2020?

Red carpets and catwalks are, in some ways, one in the same. Awards season has about as much influence on future trends as New York Fashion Week, at least for the beauty industry. A year ago, it was all about the hair accessories — bows, statement barrettes, and headbands — whereas this season seems to be favoring glittery eyeshadow (thanks again, Lucy Boynton) and old Hollywood glam.

Colorful eyeliner, strikingly bold lips, and even Little Women-inspired braids have all made notable appearances on 2020's red carpets so far. Now, the SAG Awards is solidifying all of the above, as well as introducing some curveballs of its own.

Red pouts proved to be as stylish as ever while topknots made an unexpected appearance. From Nathalie Emmanuel's natural curls to Sophie Turner's spiky lashes, these SAG Awards hair and makeup trends are destined to crop up in your own beauty routine eventually, so it's best you get a head start on them, below.

King's awards season looks are getting better by the week, it seems. This time, she opted for a smoldering eye and slicked-back hair.

Proof that there is no hairstyle trustier than a slicked-back low bun on the red carpet, a simple look created by Renato Campora using Dove products that all ring in under $5.

Cynthia Erivo

Harriet's Cynthia Erivo stole the show with her sprawling pink ballgown. Her glittery eyeliner was just subtle enough to not steal away from the main event, and her fine fingerwaves (created by Coree Moreno using all Dove products) were the perfect simple finishing touch to the look.

Scarlett Johansson

Nobody wears a red lip like this awards show veteran.

Reese Witherspoon

Long mermaid waves are all the rage lately, but Witherspoon is proof that a sharp bob will never go out of style.

Red and pink is no longer just a Valentine's Day combination — take it from Elisabeth Moss.

The only match for Christie's voluminous black gown was a bold red lip.

Yvonne Strahovski

Strahovski kept her look soft with a pink lip and a slicked-back updo, so as not to outshine her neck bling.

Winona Ryder

The perfect example of a minimalist approach: Ryder's simple ponytail and a pop of pink on the lips.

Margot Robbie

And the topknot wins again. Could this be the new red carpet trend?

Kathryn Newton
