Olivia Rodrigo

Glossier girl Olivia Rodrigo looked stunning from head to toe for her second Met Gala. She showed out in her signature color, dawning a glitzy purple Versace gown with a draped neckline, perfectly tying into the gilded theme. Rodrigo amplified the look with large purple butterfly clips in her long, curled hair. Purple eyeshadow tied the entire look together, making Rodrigo’s brown eyes pop in the process.

Glossier Lidstar in ‘Moon’ ($18)

Makeup artist Lilly Keys, of course, used all Glossier products. Keys did a full look breakdown on Instagram, where she shared the key to the ethereal halo effect on Rodrigo’s eyes was Glossier’s $18 cream shadow in ‘Moon.’

Megan Thee Stallion

The brand behind Megan Thee Stallion’s flawless Met Gala face? Revlon. Yes, the flawless red carpet look—from the defined winged eye to the ’90s ombre lip—is all drugstore makeup. Being the queen she is, Megan shared every product used to get “Thee Gala Face,” as she captioned it on Instagram.

Quannah Chasinghorse

Quannah Chasinghorse returned to the Met Gala red carpet as stunning as ever. Chasinghorse’s braided hair and vibrant makeup were a beautiful embodiment of her personal style and culture. The glam and tulle gown allowed the centerpiece of the look, handmade jewelry from Lenise Omeasoo, to shine.

Makeup artist Carolina Dalí-Trites shared the full product lineup from Westman Atelier on Instagram, including the lip palette used for the model’s nude lip.

Emma Chamberlain

With a tiara perched atop her new platinum bob, Emma Chamberlain was a Met Gala princess. Her eyes popped against the gold and copper shadows applied by MUA Kelsey Deenihan.

bareMinerals Mineralist Lip Gloss Balm ($20)

Following the night’s gilded theme, Deenihan even used real gold on the center of the lid. While we may not all have 24k gold in our budget, Chamberlain’s Met Gala glam can be achieved with bareMinerals.

KiKi Layne

It appears KiKi Layne invented the phrase “pretty in pink.” The actress wore a romantic fuchsia gown and white gloves; both adorned with flowers. MUA Billie Gene masterfully drew flowerpetal-like lines on Layne’s lids in various shades of pink, and Tish Celestine’s perfect afro completes the look.

Suva Beauty Hydra FX Liner in ‘Scrunchie’ ($14)

While we obsessively refresh Gene’s Instagram for product details, you can easily recreate the editorial liner with Suva Beauty’s Hydra FX liners ($14). Scrunchie is a gorgeous vibrant pink that can be worn alone, or lighten it with Space Panda to get a light pink shade like Layne.

Lizzo

She’s giving hair, makeup, nails, ‘fit, and flute. Lizzo’s glam team pulled her elaborate gilded look together through the power of makeup and hair.

Velour Beauty Poker Face Lashes ($27)

Firstly, makeup artist Alexx Mayo created a soft, smokey eye and paired it with a deep burgundy lip. Then, Shelby Swain perfected Lizzo’s wig with gelled finger waves and vintage curls. Oh, yes—we can’t forget the corkscrew nails, either. The flute and vibes were courtesy of Lizzo, though.

Maude Apatow

For her first-ever Met Gala, Maude Apatow joined forces with Miu Miu and Cartier. Euphoria‘s costume team constantly dressed Apatow’s character in Miu Miu for the show, so it’s safe to say Lexi Howard would approve of the sheer black gown.
