One of the earliest events on the Awards Season roster is the Golden Globes

In the ceremony's 80-year history, there have been a plethora of fashion and beauty moments like no other.

The 2023 event alone brought iconic makeup looks in abundance. From Jenna Ortega’s sultry Sophia Loren-inspired eyes to Lily James’ feline flick eyeliner and brunette bombshell bobbed hair.

Throughout history, we've seen Hollywood's most glamorous icons grace the Golden Globes red carpet, from Marylin Monroe to Grace Kelly, Sophia Loren to Farrah Fawcett.

As we patiently wait to see what the 2024 event brings on Sunday January 7 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, we reflect on some of the best vintage Golden Globe beauty moments of all time…

In a look that says 2000s princess, Halle Berry paired her signature pixie cut with a soft glam look featuring glitter on the inner eyes to make them pop. I love the super nude glossy lip.
