Laverne Cox's Blue Chrome French Manicure

With a red lip and pin-curl waves, the red carpet host looked like the epitome of Old Hollywood glam. The differentiating details, however, were her nails, which were painted in a blue chrome french manicure.

The only thing better than Taylor-Joy's two-piece Dior gown was her soft, smoky glam using Dior Beauty by makeup artist Georgie Eisdell and her metallic-yellow chrome nails, which perfectly brought together the actor's ensemble.

Robbie looked perfect in Barbie-pink monochromatic makeup, with soft waves courtesy of celebrity hairstylist Bryce Scarlett and products from KMS and Varis. A few standouts? The KMS Quick Blow Dry Spray ($26) and Varis Marcel Curling Iron ($185).

The star's makeup was done by Pati Dubroff using all products from Chanel, which Robbie is a brand ambassador for. We especially love her lipstick combo: Rouge Allure Velvet Luminous Matte Lip Colours in Intiutive and Éternelle ($45).

Gomez's crystal nails at the Golden Globes sparkled better than the trophy thanks to her go-to manicurist Tom Bachik and Aprés Gel-X products.

Her hair was styled by celebrity hairstylist Marissa Marino using Olivia Garden hot tools and René Furterer products. To prep the star's face for makeup, celebrity makeup artist Hung Vanngo used Olehenriksen skin-care products.

Celebrity hairstylist Janine Thompson was inspired by "the sex appeal, mystery, and glamour of a 1950s Italian movie star" and created Coolidge's va-va-voom hairstyle using Better Not Younger hair products. The accompanying detail you don't want to miss: her glam black nails, which featured tiny triangle details at the cuticles.

For Coolidge's makeup, celebrity artist Lilly Keys used Victoria Beckham Beauty products and R.e.m. Beauty lashes.

Cuoco stepped out on the red carpet with more than a baby bump; she also debuted a significantly darker hair color than her traditional blond. The style was by celebrity hairstylist Christine Symonds using Clairol Professional hair products.

Her makeup was also stunning. Celebrity makeup artist Jamie Greenberg got her ready with RéVive Skincare and Tweezerman products.

Milly Alcock's Half-Up Hairstyle

At first glance, Alcock's hair looked like any other half-up style. Then, she turned around, and you could see a cool hidden chain detail. Alcock's hairstylist, Graham Nation, wrapped the chains where the top section of her hair was gathered, making the final style look more seamless.

Her makeup was done by Misha Shahzada using Charlotte Tilbury products. "Milly's black Givenchy gown with studded diamonds was the perfect inspiration for her glam look," Shahzada says. "We went for a metallic smoky eye with a gorgeous iridescence to complement the gown's shine, finished with fresh, glowing skin to keep her eyes as the star."

In addition to the "Severance" actor's on-trend auburn hair color, celebrity makeup artist Molly R. Stern also created a soft glam look, prepping her skin first with Retrouvé products. "I wanted her to have radiant skin, a slightly dirty eye with an unexpected nod to pop art," Stern says.

Bold red lips (and matching nails) are already sexy, but pair them with a french bob haircut as Hall did, and you're practically steaming.

The edgiest take on the ballerina bun was Koshy's "wet" twist on the style, which was made even cooler by her high-neck gown and 3D nails.
