The Best Beauty Looks From the 2024 Emmys

The 2024 Emmy Awards were teeming with major moments, especially on the beauty front.

There were the moments that harkened back to Old Hollywood, from Naomi Watts‘s Marilyn Monroe-esque red-lip-and-bob combination to Abbott Elementary stars Quinta Brunson and Sheryl Lee Ralph's kiss curl-accented updos à la Josephine Baker.

And then there were the ones that felt cool and fresh. Leave it to Selena Gomez, nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in A Comedy Series for Only Murders in the Building, to serve up a major makeup moment. Her smoked-out winged liner was a stunning standout, with dusty rose blush and glossy lips rounding out the look. And Hacks star Hannah Einbinder upped the chic factor on her signature collarbone-grazing bob with sculptural, face-framing bends.

Below, see all the biggest beauty moments of the 2024 Emmys.
