INSTYLE: It was a glittering night honoring outstanding performances in film and television at the 2025 SAG Awards. Beyond the fashion, there were undeniably standout beauty looks, ranging from Pam Anderson’s natural, glowing skin to Cynthia Erivo’s eye-catching metallic silver smoky eyes that matched her vintage Givenchy Couture dress.

One of the biggest makeup trends of the night was red lips, worn by Selena Gomez, Elle Fanning, and Mikey Madison for a pop of contrast against their sleek gowns. “The bold red lip was the perfect finishing touch, a nod to the classic beauty of the ‘50s that made the whole look feel effortless, confident, and perfectly polished for the red carpet,” says Madison’s makeup artist Melissa Hernandez. Hair-wise, waves abounded, with some opting for Old Hollywood sculpted waves like Leighton Meester, while others chose soft, brushed-out Pre-Raphaelite waves like Aisha Dee.

Cynthia Erivo

“The look tonight was completely inspired by the iconic archive dress Cynthia is wearing,” says her makeup artist Joanna Simkin. “The silver raffia was begging for some silver drama!” With the rest of her makeup naturally luminous, Erivo complemented her archival Givenchy Couture gown with a matching set of smoky eyes, crafted with Charlotte Tilbury’s new Palette of Beautifying Eye Trends in Super Neutral.

Zoe Saldaña

“I created a modern, high shine ballerina-esque updo with a touch of ’80s glam,” says hairstylist Mara Roszak of crafting Saldaña’s ultra-chic updo using her new RŌZ Evergreen Style Cream.
