The Best Hair and Makeup at the 2019 Emmy AwardsElleMon, September 23, 2019 at 1:52 AM UTCTelevision's biggest night is underway at the Emmys red carpet and stars are bringing their beauty A game. From bold lips to sleek updos, see the best looks ahead. The Russian Doll star offset her bold green gown with a sleek updo and rosy lips and cheeks. Red lip? I don't know her. Jamil opted for a bright coral lipstick paired with shimmery gold lids, while her signature bangs were framed with loose waves. Glowing skin is the best canvas for dark smokey eyes and a nude lip, as seen on Cox. A simple low ponytail completes the look nicely. There's nothing wrong with getting matchy-matchy: Snow coordinated her copper dye job with an orange lip. The Pose star made a statement wearing fuchsia lipstick, dark smokey eyes, and pin straight hair.Praise be to Gwendoline Christie! The GOT actress wore her Jesus-inspired gown with glamorous waves and a deep red lip. Va va voom! Davis went for the drama with vampy makeup and a show-stopping curly afro. If looks could kill! Killing Eve's Villanelle wore a half updo with blond highlights, taupe lids, and flirty lashes. King's caramel highlights stood out in a chic lob, while her makeup featured luminous eyes and a pretty pink lip. Leave it Zendaya to show us how Hollywood glamour is done: Voluminous waves, bronzed and glowing skin, and strong brows. Turner kept the focus on her fresh-faced makeup with a clean half updo and champagne lids. While Oh kept her makeup look simple with rosy cheeks and lips, it was her perfectly messy updo that really stood out. Clarke proves less is more with flawless skin, full brows, and classic black eyeliner. A short cut is elevated with romantic curls, fluttery lashes, and a pink lip, as seen on King. Garner went for the unexpected with a monochromatic look complete with metallic lips. Emmanuel went full-on glam with a fire engine red lip, smokey eyes, and full brows. But the real star was her hairdo, slicked back into a cascade of curls. Washington makes a strong case for getting bangs this fall—perfectly layered and complete with face-framing tendrils. A light pink lip and heavy charcoal eye round out the effortless look.The Best Hair and Makeup at the 2019 Emmy Awards1 of 18Television's biggest night is underway at the Emmys red carpet and stars are bringing their beauty A game.
