All right. We brought you live coverage of last night’s Golden Globe Awards, we brought you our ten best dressed and our ten worst dressed (still reeling, Halle Berry)…
Now, we’d like to level the playing field and just focus on the shoulders up. Last night, there was some really amazing hair and makeup on the red carpet–and some not amazing hair and makeup. This is our rundown of the best and worst of the Golden Globes beauty.
Best Blowout: Tina Fey. Everyone wanted to touch Tina’s hair.
Worst Liner: Claire Danes‘ eye makeup just seemed so harsh.
Best Face: People had lots of feelings about Jessica Chastain‘s slicked back hair but… could anyone fault her makeup artist? She looked flawless.
Worst Pompadour: Eva Longoria.
Also snags Worst Fake Lashes. Are these from the Kardashian makeup collection?
Second Worst Pompadour: Julianne Hough, you look about as edgy as Miley Cyrus.
Best Side Part: Helen Mirren, you fox.
Worst Extensions: No, Sarah Hyland! Why did your hair team pile on all those cheesy extensions? This hair is more appropriate to the woman dressed as a mermaid at used car dealerships.
Best Glow: We weren’t crazy about Kate Hudson‘s dress but she’s hardly looked better from the neck up. Not too much, not too little. Matte but soft and dewy, all the good stuff, etc.
Best Side Swept Waves: The most popular look of the night and one nailed by the impossibly beautiful Rachel Weisz. Also, Best Eyebrows?
Worst Side Swept Waves: Heidi Klum‘s hair people needed to set down the hairspray a long time before they actually did. Klum’s waves looked stiff and greasy, and then there’s the matter of those roots.
Best Red: Damn, Isla Fisher. What a perfect beauty look for a redhead.
Worst Mohawk: Halle Berry not only dominated for worst dressed of the night, but her crunchy stegosaurus hair seemed fitting.
Best Minimalism: Although one of our worst dressed, Thandie Newton came out looking gorgeous and unfussy in the beauty category. Look at that skin!
Worst Beehive: Adele. It was great if you like Holly Golighty hair–a shiny bouffant with unsubtle highlights.
But it just seemed so… crunchy. Also, too much mascara led to winning a secondary honor, Worst Tarantula Eyes.
Best Coral: You win this time, Jessica Alba. That bold streak of coral set off the peachy Oscar de la Renta gown and made it just a little bit more interesting.
Worst Goth: Kaley Cuoco‘s stylist talked her into something “on-trend” and it shows. Don’t wear shit that you have to be coerced into, famous laides!
Also, this will look so dated starting… yesterday.
Best Blue: Kerry Washington is so beautiful it’s stupid, but she’s also demonstrating how blue eye shadow can work for every woman.
Worst Blue: …While Nicole Richie demonstrates how not to wear blue shadow.
Most Herself: What could we possibly say, Helena Bonham Carter?
