Nicola Coughlan

Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan proves that a monochromatic makeup look never goes out of style. Her soft, tawny-toned eye shadow, blush, and lip shade were the perfect match for her bold sequined gown. “I was inspired by the gorgeous structure and shine of Nicola’s dress. I decided to reflect this monochromatic vibe onto her makeup look, but in a fresh, soft way,” says makeup artist Adam Breuchaud, who used all Chanel products on Coughlan. “I achieved this by applying mauvy-pinky, saturated, and fresh tones.” Her sleek, center-parted hair look was styled using Olaplex's No. 5 Moisturize & Mend Leave-In Conditioner.

Brie Larson

“When we first saw the sketch of Brie’s Chanel gown for tonight’s Emmy Awards, we knew right away that we had to channel Catherine Deneuve’s timeless elegance and glamour," says makeup artist Nina Park. “To give this a fresh, modern twist, I applied Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream in Soleil Tan Medium Bronze, focusing on sculpting her cheekbones and forehead for that soft, sculpted look. For her eyes, I wanted a defined, but subtle, liner to really bring out her natural beauty. I applied Chanel Le Volume de Chanel Mascara in Noir to create full, fluttery lashes—a must for the look. I completed Brie’s look by applying rosy, pink washes of color on her cheeks and lips, tying everything together for a soft, radiant finish.”

Sofía Vergara

We don’t know what we love more: the impossibly shiny Hollywood waves, bombshell cat-eye eyeliner, or blurry rose lip. The star's makeup look was created by artist Sabrina Bedrani, who prepped her skin using SumaNurica.

Lily Gladstone

Before the Emmys, celebrity facialist Lord Gavin McLeod-Valentine prepped Lily Gladstone’s skin for makeup using Augustinus Bader. Blush was one of the biggest beauty trends of the night, and we love the star's warm toasted apricot rather than baby pink take on a flushed cheek.

Actor Da'Vine Joy Randolph's striking red carpet makeup is worth bookmarking and crafted by Lanc?me global artist Sheika Daley. “Da'Vine Joy brought red carpet drama to the Emmys with a look that perfectly balanced elegance and edge," Daley says in a statement.
