Camila Cabello’s Rosy Flush

The "Havana" songstress rocked a flirty pretty-in-pink blush look at the 2019 Grammy Awards that was all kinds of Valentine’s Day #goals. Celeb makeup artist Allan Avendano hit her apples with the L'Oreal Paradise Blush in Fantastical and then layered the brand's True Match Lumi Powder Glow Illuminator in Rose on top as a highlight.

Lady Gaga’s Bedhead Bends

The way to get a morning-after mane the night of a la Mother Monster? By alternating between two different wave patterns, as hair pro Frederic Aspiras did for the star at the 2019 Grammys. He prepped her strands with the Joico Defy Damage Protective Shield before blow-drying, and then bounced between S-waves created with a flat iron and barrel bends using a “curl and slide” technique.

Alicia Keys’ Radiant Skin

The Grammy host is known for her barely there makeup looks, so makeup artist Dotti simply upped her glow game for the awards ceremony by blending the Burt’s Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil and Goodness Glows Full Coverage Liquid Makeup.

Lily Collins’ Chic Chignon

It doesn’t get much more elegant than the sleek low updo mane man DJ Quintero crafted for the brunette beauty at the 2019 BAFTA Awards.

Miley Cyrus’ Retro Cat Eye

We love the vintage vibes of the feline flick makeup artist James Kaliardos dreamed up for the "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart" singer at the 2019 Grammys. No matter your liquid liner prowess, Michelle Phan’s EM Cosmetics Brush Tip Illustrative Eyeliner is fool proof.

Dakota Fanning’s Bobby Pins

The perfect way to upgrade a super sleek blowout? With face-framing bobby pins as mane woman Jenda did for the blonde beauty at the Rodarte fall-winter 2019 fashion show.

Lucy Boynton’s Cherry Blossom Eyes

For a high-fashion take on Valentine’s Day's classic pink and red color combo, look no further that the “medieval geisha doll” look celeb makeup artist Jo Baker created for the Bohemian Rhapsody actress at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. In addition to the “#pinkjelly dreamy flush” and “3D Matte #redlip for #colorcontrast drama,” Baker applied the Dior Pump'N'Volume Mascara in Pink Pump on the bottom lashes an eye-opening effect.

Kerri Russell’s Undone Pony

Nothing says “date night” like super sexy bedhead, and Ted Gibson crafted the romantic ribbon-adorned undone ponytail for the Americans star at the 2019 Directors Guild Awards. Create texture whether you’ve got it or not with the Starring by Ted Gibson Shooting Star Texture Meringue.

Rowan Blanchard’s Wine-Stained Lip

Makeup artist Emily Cheng dreamed up the ultimate berry pout to complement the actress’ lilac bustier and matching skirt at the Rodarte fall-winter 2019 show. No word on exactly what shade she used, but we’re fans of the Elizabeth Arden Plush Up Lip Gelato in Pink Berry Burst.

Amandla Stenberg’s Braided Bob

We’re not sure what we love most about the actress’ cropped plaited ‘do at the 10th annual AAFCA Awards: the deep side-part or hints of the season’s go-to icy purple hair color.

Kate Bosworth’s Icy Eyes

To complement the blonde beauty’s pale green Jason Wu gown at the 2019 Learning Lab Ventures Gala, makeup artist Pati Dubroff lined her multi-colored peepers in a shimmering pastel hue (we like the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Yeyo).

Mandy Moore’s Pearly Pony

The best way to upgrade a simple low ponytail? With a single pearl as hair pro Ashley Streicher did for the This Is Us star at the 2019 SAG Awards using a Jennifer Behr bobby pin.

Julia Garner’s Coral Pout

Forget pink and red! The Ozark actress’ bright coral lip at the 2019 SAG Awards was all kinds of chic, and pro Hung Vanngo used the Chanel Le Crayon Levres in Desir to line the pout and the Rouge Allure Velvet Luminous Matte Lip Color in First Light to fill it in.

Gemma Chan’s Ethereal Updo

To add texture to the Crazy Rich Asians star’s undone chignon at the 2019 SAG Awards, hairstylist Clariss Rubenstein spritzed Dove Care Between Washes Invisible Dry Shampoo throughout. The best part? It costs $4.99.

Ashley Graham’s Pretty in Pink

Working with the supermodel on a “special shoot,” makeup artist Allan Avendaño shared on Instagram that he used Revlon products (we like the ColorStay Looks Book Eyeshadow Palette in Enigma and Insta-Blush in Candy Kiss) to create the romantic monochrome look.

Marion Cotillard’s Cherry Pout

Offering a masterclass in French-girl beauty at the Chanel Haute Couture show in Paris, the Academy Award-winner rocked glowing skin with a bright red lip that was all kinds of chic. No word on the exact shade she used, but we love the long-wear (read: kiss-proof) powers of the Chanel Rouge Allure Liquid Powder in Radical (a vibrant red-orange).

Laura Harrier’s Pony

Nothing beats a perky ponytail, as the Spider-Man: Homecoming actress demonstrated at the Golden Globes, and celeb hair pro Jennifer Yepez gave it a modern twist by adding a center part to the classic style. She used the Kérastase L’incroyable Blowdry Crème Hair Cream to ensure sleek and shiny strands, while the brand’s Laque Couture anti-frizz hairspray kept it all in place.

Vanessa Hudgens’ Glossy Eyes

For a fresh-face look with just a hint of shine, makeup artist Allan Avendaño applied the Flesh Fleshpot Eye and Cheek Gloss to the actress’ entire lid and beefed up her flirty fringe with the Dior Maximizer 3D Lash Primer and Diorshow Pump ’n’ Volume Mascara.

Nicole Kidman’s Half-Up ‘Do

For a romantic take on the classic half-up, half-down style, hairstylist Kylee Heath left a few face-framing tendrils out of the actress’ Critics’ Choice Awards ‘do. On Instagram, the pro shared that she used Harry Josh Pro Tools to create the loose waves and finished things off with Oribe styling products (the Dry Texturizing Spray is a forever-fave in our book).

Kiki Layne’s Plum Peepers

The If Beale Street Could Talk actress stunned at the Golden Globes in subtle smokey eye by makeup artist Rebekah Aladdin that was insanely sexy. The pro used the Entrapment, Disobedient, Xtreme Aubergine and Rose Gold 005 shades in the Pat McGrath Labs Mothership V: Bronze Seduction Palette to contour and highlight the lid. A smudge of the Permagel Ultra Glide Eye Pencil in Shade (a taupe) provided additional definition — as did a streak of the Perma Precision Liquid Eyeliner along the lash line. Speaking of lashes, Aladdin used the brand’s buzzed-about new FetishEyes Mascara, which is launching on Valentine’s Day!

Lucy Boynton’s Bob

The Bohemian Rhapsody actress proved at the Golden Globes that the combo of good hair and great lashes is all you need to be bonafide beauty star. Celeb mane woman Jenny Cho added a bit of undone texture to the platinum chin-length style using Suave products (we recommend the Refresh & Revive Dry Shampoo to boost body).

Emmy Rossum’s Oxblood Lip

Consider the Shameless star’s film noir-inspired Critics’ Choice Awards look your beauty *and* style inspo. Makeup artist Jo Baker used the oxblood Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Lip Color in Protector to match her velvet Ralph Lauren gown, and the result was hot, hot, hot.
