We’re fully in awards season, and as a beauty editor, this is my Superbowl for red carpet beauty. As the industry comes together to celebrate the very best in film, the BAFTAs 2024 (AKA, the British Academy Film Awards) is also the place to find some of the best beauty looks of the awards season. The hair and makeup moments we see here no doubt influence the spring beauty trends we’ll see for the season ahead. Take the hydro bob, which we’ve seen all over the awards ceremony this year, worn by everyone from Ayo Edebiri to America Ferrera. Or cherry cola hair as seen on Dua Lipa.
We’ve already seen some incredible beauty looks from the Golden Globes, Emmys and the Grammys. And now that the BAFTAs 2024 has arrived, you can best believe that I’ve been spying on all the celebrity looks from the red carpet. I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled on all the show-stopping beauty looks, from major makeup moments to the manicure trends that we’ll soon be rushing to the salon to copy. Not forgetting, award-season hair, which always gives plenty of inspo for chic hairstyles. I’ve also been keeping tabs on the top makeup artists, hairstylists and nail technicians who are responsible for making the celebrities look their best and doing a deep dive into the products that they actually use to prep them for the red carpet.
Ahead, you’ll find all the best beauty looks from the BAFTAs 2024 and all the deets on the beauty products used backstage. Prepare to swoon.
