Over the past few weeks, we've seen images from the Sex and the City 2 set pouring in. While these photos include shots of the four friends dressed in the designer duds we've grown to love, we've also had a peek at some wilder looking '80s getups worn by the characters portrayed by Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon, and Kim Cattrall. We'll just have to wait until the movie comes out next year to find out the reasoning behind their Reagan-era hair and makeup. But in the meantime, let's take a look at what the actresses really did look like back in the day. Let's start with Carrie.

2008 Primetime Emmy Awards: Cynthia Nixon

Who says short hair isn't versatile? Cynthia Nixon really changes up her hairstyle for the red carpet. Just a few days ago at the release of Sex and the City on DVD, she wore a modified updo that made her hair look much longer. This side-parted flip is sexy and flattering, and the strawberry color with darker roots gives it some dimension. Do you like her hair as much as I do?

Whose SATC Premiere Makeup Look Did You Like the Best?

Last night, the cast of Sex and the City arrived at Radio City Music Hall for their much-anticipated premiere. The girls lit up the city wearing metallic dresses (well, all but Cynthia Nixon) and fabulous hair and makeup. I especially love the bronzer on Kristin Davis because it's something we never saw much of on the show. SJP's eyes are a sexy, smoky slate grey (word on the street is that Dior did her makeup). Cynthia Nixon and Kim Cattrall chose a more minimalist look, but looked lovely as ever. All of the ladies beamed from the inside out, but whose makeup look did you think was the prettiest on the sparkling pink carpet?

Beauty Products Inspired by Sex and the City

Can't wait for the movie premiere? These lipsticks and nail polishes have the same names as the main characters on Sex and the City.

Stila Lip Color in Miranda is a creamy, shiny coral lipstick; it was so popular in 2007, it won In Style's Best of Beauty Buys. Cargo PlantLove Lipstick in Sam ($20) is a deep red lipstick that exudes sexiness and confidence, just like powerhouse Samantha Jones - and Stila SPF 20 Shine Lip Color in Charlotte ($22) is a sheer orange shade with the shine of a gloss and the creaminess of a lipstick.

Sarah Jessica Parker and famed manicurist Deborah Lippmann collaborated to create a soft, cotton-candy pink nail lacquer called Sarah Smile ($15) during the heyday success of the sitcom, and Duri Cosmetics recently released a bluish-red, nail polish in Sex in the City ($5). It's clear that this fab four has influenced beauty looks over the past decade with their glamorous hair and fashion-forward makeup. Would you consider buying these SATC-inspired beauty products?
