The glamor during this year’s awards season continues to dazzle, with the best makeup looks from the 2022 Critics’ Choice Awards setting the bar even higher for swoon-worthy moments of beauty. With plenty of stars in attendance at Sunday’s in-person event, the stage was set for several spring beauty trends to shine. Among the most glamorous looks of the evening, juicy lipsticks in shades of berry, crimson and mauve all did the trick for the most requested makeup look for spring and summer, while skin demi-matte and soft glam liner and shadow all took a turn in the spotlight.
Awards show newbies like Hannah Einbinder, Katja Herbers and Jasmin Savoy Brown have all proven how powerful dramatic lipstick is on the red carpet, with variations on the increasingly popular red-orange lip, a classic vampy matte red and moody burgundy respectively. squid games Star Hoyeon Jung continued her new tenure as a red carpet favorite, showcasing old Hollywood finger waves and a dark pink nude lip. And once again, Jade Pinkett Smith proved that hair is utterly unnecessary to make a stylish impact on the red carpet, especially when paired with a soft, glossy raspberry lip and a delicate jeweled headpiece.
