Do you hear that sound? It’s the official kickoff of the 2023 Grammy Awards red carpet that’s all about celebrating the best in music — and though it’s just starting, celebrities are pulling out all the stops with their looks. At the 65th annual Grammys tonight, we can expect some out-there style and beauty moments compared to other award shows. And this year is already delivering everything we’d hoped for (and more).

Big names like Doja Cat, Lizzo, and more are set to take the stage this evening, and their beauty looks have already set the tone for a stellar evening of music (duh!) and, well, makeup and hair moments that are certain to offer whatever inspiration you’re looking for. Red eyeshadow and poppy crimson cheeks to match? I didn’t know I needed it until I saw Lizzo rocking it. 

Below, you’ll find the best beauty looks from the 2023 Grammy Awards, plus the exact products used to achieve them all — including the new Charlotte Tilbury wand used on Lizzo, the pro-approved hair dryer behind Doja Cat’s sleek ‘do, and the $8 lipgloss behind Megan Fox's high-shine pout.

Lizzo

It’s about damn time… that we hear it for Lizzo’s #fire Grammys 2023 ensemble. The singer walked the red carpet in a red floral-embroidered cape, a crystal-embellished corset, and a coordinating full-length skirt. But where her evening attire really shined (aside from those glistening crystals, of course) was from the neck up. 

The singer’s makeup artist, Alexx Mayo, went for a red-hot look, applying crimson-hued shadow and red-tinted cheeks with  the new Charlotte Tilbury Matte Beauty Blush Wand, and big, wispy eyelashes from Velour Lashes that could blow anyone away.

Doja Cat

Doja Cat stunned at the 2023 Grammys red carpet in a latex Atelier Versace gown with matching gloves, but her beauty look was certainly one for the books, too. Ultra-sleek, shiny hair was the name of the game, and hairstylist Jared “JStayReady” Henderson used a slew of GHD hair tools, including the Helios 1875w Advanced Professional Hair Dryer and a flatiron to achieve her frizz-free pixie. The finishing touch to ensure all-night hold? Ghostbond XL Hair Adhesive that you can find on Amazon for $20.

If you were having a dreary day, Kelsea Ballerini’s bright-yellow Grammys dress is certain to be the sunny boost you need to get you out of the winter blues. But what’s even more intriguing is the juxtaposition between her lemon-yellow maxi and her smokey eye that makeup artist Kelsey Fisher achieved with a slew of Covergirl products — including the Clean Fresh Clean Color Eyeshadow palette that comes in a range of shades, plus this $8 red lipstick that’ll add the perfect pop of color to any look.

Kacey Musgraves showed up on the 2023 Grammys red carpet wearing a pink bodysuit and a feathered cape to match. Her textured attire was completed by an ultra-sleek hairdo that celebrity hairstylist Giovanni Delgado achieved with a slew of T3 hair tools including this $35 ceramic round brush and the small-but-mighty T3 Afar Hair Dryer. For styling, Delgado tapped Unite haircare products like the 7Second Blowout Cream and the 7Second Leave-In Conditioner.

Bebe Rexha

Bebe Rexha is serving major lewks at the Grammys. She’s channeling a ‘70s Barbie in a plunging baby pink gown, plus perfectly bouncy blonde locks that are giving Farrah Fawcett  — a fitting source of inspiration, seeing as the singer recently teased a new '70s-inspired single. Hairstylist to the stars Cesar Deleon Ramirez used a range of Unite products to boost volume and shine on Rexha’s waves, including a dry shampoo and the Blow and Set Lotion. 

Wavy locks and Barbie-pink dress aside, it’s hard not to notice her perfectly shaped brows and wispy lashes that were achieved thanks to a pair of foolproof tools from Tweezerman: the $8 Shaping Spiral Brow and Lash Brush and the Classic Eyelash Curler.

Brandi Carlile

Vibrant, smooth hair was the name of the game at the Grammys — see Doja Cat’s pixie for proof — but few tresses shined as much as Brandie Carlile’s. And it was thanks to the product used to prep her locks pre-red carpet, Madison Reed’s Color Reviving Gloss, which gives the ultimate refresh by adding a glossy shine and sleek finish.

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez was a vision on the Grammys stage in a plunging Gucci gown, dripping in hundreds of crystals that glistened with every step she took. But really, we didn’t expect anything less from J.Lo — after all, she’s had some pretty iconic Grammys moments (ahem, that plunging green dress of the early aughts). But the diamond didn’t stop on her dress. Her go-to nail artist Tom Bachik made sure to add some sparkle to her mani, prepping Lopez’s nails with his limited-edition nail care set from Tweezerman, plus Apres gel nails complete with a row of diamonds down the center.

Cardi B

Cardi B Grammys

Cardi B looked so good at the Grammys — okurrr. It’s hard to argue with the fact that her cobalt-blue gown from Gaurav Gupta, complete with the architectural front, was a true work of art. Her pose? Also a work of art. And her impeccable red-carpet glow that perfectly completed her dress? Also a work of art, and accomplished by using the SOL by Jergen Deep Water Self Tanner Mousse. Hot Tip: Celebrity makeup artist Erika La’ Pearl recommends leaving it on for six hours before rinsing it off.

For Cardi B's makeup, Pat McGrath used a few of her hero staples, including the MTHRSHP Eyeshadow Palette, the Ultra Glide Eye Pencil, and the Ultra Lip Pencil. Talk about a beauty!

Camila Cabello’s Grammys outfit took 40 hours to handmake, but her flawless and minimalist hair and makeup moment certainly did not, thanks to a slew of hard-working L'Oréal Paris products. Ash K Holm prepped Cabello’s skin with hero staples like the Vitamin C serum and the now-$13 24H Pore Minimizer (flashing camera lights aren’t always the most flattering, after all), while hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos used this detangling spray to prep her locks, the Dyson straightener to create that subtle bend, and the satin hairspray to hold everything in place — no matter where the evening might take her.

Megan Fox

We had high hopes for Megan Fox’s Grammys look, and as per usual, she and Machine Gun Kelly did not fail to impress. Fox was a vision in white in a diamond-encrusted, corset-style Zuhair Murad gown and thousands of dollars worth of Lorraine Schwartz jewels, but fear not — her makeup was much more attainable. Jenna Kristina, the mastermind behind her beauty look, prepped her skin with Image Skincare’s eye masks, followed by two Maybelline products: the New York Tattoo Studio Ink Pen Eyeliner for a smokey eye and Lifter Gloss in Ice for a glossy pout — both attainable for even the most budget-conscious at less than $10. The finishing touches were big, wispy lashes, courtesy of Kiss’s Lash but Better False eyelash pack.

To no one’s surprise, Paris Hilton came to serve at the 2023 Grammys in a rhinestone-covered Celine dress that sparkled from every angle. The finishing touches included a dark smokey eye look, glossy lips, and ultra-smooth hair that Hilton’s hairstylist, Eduardo Ponce, created by combining two Fekkai products: the Brilliant Gloss Anti-Frizz Serum and the Clean Stylers Glossing Cream. If pin-straight, frizz-free hair is what you’re after, these two beauty staples are must buys.
