If there’s one thing all Who What Wear beauty editors have in common, it’s that we all revere the Emmy Awards as the epitome of style. Of course, the 2024 Emmys are gearing up to be a show to remember, with television’s biggest night celebrating its 75th anniversary. The event has been long awaited, and if the past couple of star-studded red carpets have been any indication of what we can expect, we’re fully prepared to be amazed.
What’s more, the first few red carpet events of the New Year possess the unique ability to dictate the beauty trends we’ll be seeing for the remaining 351 days of the year, so we’ll be paying extremely close attention to the stunning standouts. Ready to see which looks caught our eye this time around? Keep scrolling to discover the 28 best beauty looks from this year’s Emmys red carpet. We’ll be reporting on our favourite looks throughout the evening, so don’t click away!
Gomez’s vampy lips, smokey eyes, and contoured cheeks are reminiscent of Old Hollywood glamour.
Brunson is pretty in pink with vibrant tones of magenta from her eyes to her cheeks. (And clearly, so is her dress.)
The Bear star’s luminous skin and flushed cheeks add softness to her otherwise structured look (e.g. her incredibly chic leather dress).
The Wednesday star rocks a mauve lip that matches perfectly with her textured dress.
Rae looks downright ethereal with glossy chocolate lips (one of the biggest trends of 2024), flirty lashes, and an ultra-glowy complexion.
Morrone stuns in a bronzed and glowy barely-there makeup look featuring flushed cheeks, mauve lips, and feathered eyebrows.
Clearly, bow hair accessories are another trend we’ll be seeing beyond the New Year. We’ll be taking notes from Keough and wearing ours with ponytails.
The Crown’s Elizabeth Debicki looks like royalty with sleek strands, rosy lips, and a warm wash of colour on the cheeks.
Waterhouse’s cool-girl, windswept, textured tresses are what dreams are made of.
Still not sold on Pantone’s colour of the year? Peach is the perfect way to brighten any makeup look, as proven by The White Lotus’s Meghann Fahy.
Vampy makeup is in and we’re drawing major inspiration from The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel’s Rachel Brosnahan.
Actress Lizzy Caplan shows us how a bright red lip should be done (and why you should seriously consider curtain bangs).

DeBose is bronzed and beautiful in a makeup look featuring glossy mauve lips and smokey winged-out eyes.

Chastain brings on the glitz and glam with a warm eye look, a wash of colour to the cheeks and powder-pink lips.
Lavender is the name of the game for comedian Amber Ruffin, who wears an elegant pastel eye look to complement her silk-draped dress. It’s a youthful and vibrant look we can’t wait to re-create.
We can’t stop thinking about Cox’s blue-toned smokey eye and sun-kissed complexion. Her tousled blonde ponytail couldn’t have gone better with the makeup look.
Danes’s bright pink lips and glamorous bob pair perfectly with her retro-inspired, bejewelled dress.
Wednesday star Joy Sunday is absolutely glowing in this shot of her bold pink lips and flirty lashes. Aren’t her high cheekbones to die for?

To say we’re obsessed with this edgy, metal-inspired look would be a major understatement. Lyonne’s voluminous, fiery red look stunning with her shimmering silver eyeshadow.
Feathered brows have been on our radar for a while, so we’re loving Nélisse’s! They frame her copper-toned smokey eye, allowing them to take centre stage and complement the pouty pink lips.
Yellow Jackets starCourtney Eaton’s barely-there makeup look allows her gorgeous natural features to shine through with a mauve lip, flushed cheeks, and minimal wing.
McAllister’s dewy skin, minimalistic eye makeup, and slicked-back tresses are proof that TikTok’s viral “clean girl” aesthetic will still be going strong well into 2024.
