From Bold Lips to Glowy Skin: 26 of the Best Celebrity Beauty Looks Lately
After zooming in on bright lipsticks and bob hairstyles lately, it's time to catch up the rest of the celebrity summer beauty looks you shouldn't miss!
Whether you love bold lipstick, matchy makeup or a bare face, there's something for everyone in this batch of beauty inspo:
Mandy Moore
What I like: Could Mandy be any prettier? I love this precise raspberry lip with the more casual wavy hairstyle. Notice how her lip tone is cool but the rest is warm (peachy blush and gold and copper eyeshadow). Bonus points for the natural lashes and feathery brows. What I'd change: Nothing.
Mandy is wearing: Lipstick in An Affair
What I like: This one is more of a “power” look, with vibrant fuchsia lipstick, bold brows and textured hair flipped to one side. I really like how the eyeshadow is softly diffused on the top and bottom lids. What I'd change: Nothing, although I prefer the warmer blush with Mandy's skin tone.
What I like: Mandy's skin is the standout for me here. With her hair up, you really notice its flawless condition, enhanced by a pop of orangey-red lipstick. If you look closely, there's a dab of blue on each lid, which is a fun touch. What I'd change: Nothing.
Kendall Jenner
What I like: Kendall's glowy skin and glossy lipstick. She looks so fresh—so much better than when she wears the signature Kardashian spackle! She got some help in the lash region, but I'm fine with it because of the soft texture. What I'd change: Her brows are really lifted at the tails and they weren't always that way. (What I'm saying is BOTOX.)
Sofia Vergara
What I like: Sofia got bangs! Finally! I approve 1,000 percent. They give her go-to long waves a much-needed update, drawing the focus to her eyes (and covering up her brows, which I always wished she'd groom with brow mascara). Even her lipstick is more modern, a fire-engine red. What I'd change: Her cheek fillers look overdone.
Selena Gomez
What I like: Gosh, does Selena have the most amazing mane of hair or what?! I also love these sparkly smoky eyes and the super-natural brows—we're seeing a real movement toward less precision, which I love. What I'd change: I like the gloss, but the over-lining on the top lip is very obvious.
Lily Aldridge
What I like: Well, what can I say? Lily is a goddess. As if it weren't enough to be blessed with chiseled cheekbones, full brows and flawless skin… her makeup is so lived-in, it barely looks like she's wearing any. What I'd change: Nothing.
Hailey Baldwin
What I like: Hailey's flipped-over lob. I also like her matchy-matchy eyes and lips in a tawny rose. It's always great to see her skipping the false lashes that so many of her peers are into. What I'd change: Nothing.
Rachel Weisz
What I like: Rachel's thick, shiny waves and perfectly executed smoky eyes. If you look closely at the eyeshadow, the outer edges come to a soft point, for a subtly graphic twist. Her brows are incredible, and the stained lip feels fresher than lipstick. What I'd change: Nothing.
Emma Stone
What I like: Emma's marsala lipstick and soft brown shadow. I also like the texture of her brows, and that she left them darker than her newly blonde hair. What I'd change: Nothing, although I think these warm tones were more striking when she was a redhead.
Jourdan Dunn
What I like: Jourdan's bright orange eyeshadow. The key here is layering it with a thick black liner closer to the lashes, to define her eyes. I also like her flippy bob and glowing skin. What I'd change: The makeup in her mid-face is too yellow, and her brow edges are too defined.
Alicia Vikander
What I like: Alicia's luminous skin and glossy waves. As usual, she sculpted her eyes with a subtle taupe shadow, and enhanced her lip tone with a pinky stain. What I'd change: Nothing… although it would be great to see her mix it up a bit!
Hailee Steinfeld
What I like: Hailee's deep berry lip stain and cute top knot. She has a matching sheer maroon on her eyes, with spidery defined lashes and her signature full brows. What I'd change: The contour/bronzer is too dark.
Lily James
What I like: Lily's flushed cheeks and pink lipstick. With her amazing brows, natural lashes and loose hair, this is such a pretty, low-key beauty look. What I'd change: Nothing.
Kristen Stewart
What I like: It's always an eye makeup statement with Kristen, and this look is no exception. What makes it different from a traditional smoky eye is that the colour extends out, not up, and there's some shimmer at the inner lower corners. I like that she paired it with bare lips and minimal blush. What I'd change: I'm not really feeling this haircut—at least the tufts in front of her ears!
Taylor Schilling
What I like: Taylor looks amazing here! I love the cat eyes, dark brows and pale pink gloss—not to mention her glowing skin and face-framing updo. Plus, her smile is so genuine, she gets extra points for that. What I'd change: Nothing.
Holliday Grainger
What I like: Holliday's reverse cat eyes. The wings are done in black pencil, not liquid liner, and extend up from the bottom lids, with black in the waterlines. There's a hint of silver on the top, and her lashes, lips and skin are gorgeously natural. The soft wavy lob is also perfect. Obsessed! What I'd change: Nothing.
Sophie Turner
What I like: Sophie is a redhead again! The blonde was pretty, but I think she looks more unique with this colour. Makeup-wise, I like the flicky cat eyes and soft peach tones on lids, cheeks and lips. What I'd change: Nothing.
Molly Quinn
What I like: Molly is a testament to the fact that you don't need to pile on the makeup for a red carpet. All she did to enhance her ultra-fair colouring was add some pink shadow, black mascara (on the top lashes only) and a rosy lipstick with soft edges. What I'd change: Nothing.
Halston Sage
What I like: The top edges may be a little messy, but Halston's full berry lips are speaking to me. They look great with her lovely skin and blush (which looks like it's coming from within). Beachy, piecey hair will never go out of style. What I'd change: They're not bad, but I don't think the false lashes are necessary.
Rachel Bilson
What I like: We haven't seen Rachel in YEARS! She looks as cute as ever in these cat eyes, with a generous dusting of glitter at the inner corners. The pink lip gloss is really pretty, too. What I'd change: I'm not a fan of the bouffant updo, which seems a little dated.
Amanda Peet
What I like: Amanda's healthy natural beauty look. The sheer pink is super-flattering on her lips and cheeks, and then she did a metallic champagne all over the lids. Full brows stand in for mascara. Her layered waves look incredible! What I'd change: Nothing.
Dakota Fanning
What I like: Who says you have to do smoky eyes in brown or grey? Dakota went for pink, and it looks fantastic. Pink lip gloss, full brows and straight hair complete the look. What I'd change: Nothing.
Maisie Williams
What I like: I know Maisie's makeup statement is the green liner, but what's drawing me in even more are her gorgeous brows, long lashes and healthy skin. What I'd change: I could go either way on the liner—it's fun, but this would be equally pretty without it.
Rita Ora
What I like: Rita's two-toned eyeliner. On the top are thick black wings; on the bottom, a sweep of pink glitter. Can't say I've seen this before! With such a dramatic look, she was right to keep her hair off the face, and balance it with a non-matchy red lip. It's not meant to be “natural,” so I guess the false lashes are fine. What I'd change: Her skin looks a little dry.
Peyton List
What I like: Peyton's matte brick lipstick and glowy, sun-kissed skin. She wears this unusual colour very well! What I'd change: It would be even better with clean eyes, and her hair looks quite dry and brassy. I'd love to see her chop it off into a lob!
