    And the winner's are...

    The Awards season is well and truly underway and to kick us off, Hollywood's film and TV stars gathered to grace the 74th Annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony. Year after year, we watch these celebrities walk the red carpet with baited breath, eager to see what lipstick shade will reign supreme, what hair inspiration we can borrow for our return to debaucherous affairs after dry January and what beauty trends will arise that we haven't yet seen on the catwalks of fashion week.

    And this year, did not disappoint.

    Priyanka Chopra and Kerry Washington flew the flag for romantic make-up, sporting both dark berry lipstick and dramatic lashes, while Natalie Portman, Jessica Chastain and Emily Ratajkowski all paraded the pink lip with barely there make-up. Eyes were washed in hues of peach, pink and gold, with Thandie Newton and Gillian Anderson bucking the trend. And highlighting powder hit peak fever with the likes of Janelle Monae, Drew Barrymore and Evan Rachel Wood utterly glowing.

    Want to get your glow on? Head to Powder for a personalised highlighter recommendation.

    As for hair, the side swept look was the big winner of the night with Brie Larson, Busy Phillips, Jessica Biel, Kristen Cavallari and Reese Witherspoon all opting for a side part. Ribbons made an appearance too, with both Michelle Williams and Sienna Miller adding a simple bow to their style. And plaits made a subtle appearance in several styles, as seen woven within Lily Collins' top knot and used as a way to secure Jessica Chastain's sleek bun.

    Needless to say, these silver screen sirens went all out with their beauty style, putting their own stamp on make-up and hair with the help of their glam squads. Look to Zazie Beetz to see an example of how to do it well.

    In need of some beauty, hair and make-up inspiration? Scroll through our round up of the 74th Annual Golden Globes best beauty looks...

    Lily Collins

    Lily Collins

    Lily showed off her flawless porcelain skin with dusty rose pink eye shadow to match her beautiful rose embroidered gown. To offset the beading on her dress Lily’s hair was kept modern and loose instead of polished. To create that rough-spun texture, start with clean hair and apply two golf ball-sized dollops of the John Frieda Luxurious Volume Perfectly Full Mousse through the lengths. After raking the mousse through the roots and ends, blow dry the hair with a multi-bristle brush instead of a round brush to create more natural texture versus the super smooth, just-got-back-from-Dry-Bar vibes.

    Ruth Negga dazzled in a stunning Louis Vuitton dress, perfectly complimented by a 1920s wave 'do and glittery eyeshadow. Vernon Francois explains his inspiration for designing her hairstyle: 'I was inspired by Ruth’s show-stopping dress. My focus was on creating a very elegant look that captured a 1950s feel with an ultra-smooth and luminous finish. I applied a little hairdryer heat and then the rest was all about hand-tailoring the shape with gel and hairspray.' Vernon’s kit for creating this look included the CO~WASH Shampoo and RE~VAMP Moisture Spray from the VERNON FRANÇOIS® Collection, also Schwarzkopf’s Invincible Styling Gel and Oribe Superfine Hairspray.
