The beauty trends found on the 2018 Emmy Awards red carpet was a mixture of classic, vintage hairstyles, bold, natural updos and light, dewy makeup looks. If I had to claim a beauty theme of the night, I’d say it was royalty. Each star showed their own interpretation of what it means to be regal. Styled from head to toe, these starlets did not come to play. Take a look at some of the beauty trends we loved at the Emmy Awards.

Letitia Wright wore her braids half up and half down, with jeweled accessories in the bun of her hair.  If you ever thought you couldn’t wear braids to such a prestigious awards show, think again! Wright’s soft and dewy makeup was done by makeup artist Tasha Brown. Get her glow by using Bare Minerals Barepro Glow Highlighter ($28 Bareminerals.com). The Fierce shade is perfect for brown skin.

Speaking of highlights, can we get into Ashley Nicole Black’s color range? The writer and comedian opted for a simple updo that really showed off her bleach blonde streaks. She went for a bright orange lipstick to go with her yellow and gold dress. Achieve the look with Nars Audacious Lipstick in Geraldine Tangerine ($34, NarsCosmetics.com).

Wiley took it back to the 90’s with a side part in her hair. This is a throwback look that she made look modern and glamorous. Shea Moisture’s Jamaican Black Caster Oil Strong Hold Gel can help achieve this look ($10.99, Target).
