The annual BRIT Awards commenced on Saturday night and the star-studded guest list did not disappoint with an array of iconic glam moments, alongside mesmerising performances to round up an unbelievable year of British music. From sultry, grungy glam to vibrant pops of colour, we take a glimpse at the makeup looks that brought the beauty to the BRITs this year.

As if making history by winning six Brit Awards wasn’t enough, Raye also won us over with her Hollywood-inspired ’90s twist glam. Consisting of a bold, dramatic black graphic liner paired with neutral-toned shimmer over the lids, makeup artist Lan Nguyen-Grealis created a sharp and seamlessly blended smoky cat eye.

On the red carpet, Irish singer-songwriter Jazzy’s makeup was a captivating fusion of eras, blending an 80s-inspired electric blue lash with a 90s-infused zigzag parting and a beautifully ombré, brown-toned lined lip. Makeup and hair artist Gracie Cox masterfully crafted a nostalgic dream, effortlessly capturing the essence of multiple decades in a single look.

For pop-powerhouse Griff, makeup artist Michelle Dacillo created an editorial-inspired, matte, pastel-toned, cloud-like eye shadow look, juxtaposed with a spiky lash to match her strong yet ethereal outfit.

For her first UK performance of her latest single, “Training Season”, Dua Lipa collaborated with makeup virtuoso Lisa Eldridge, who created a captivating look using all YSL products. Eldridge’s artistry unveiled a stunning fusion of sophistication and allure, exemplified by a beautifully executed smoked-out fox-eye liner, adding a feline mystique to Dua Lipa’s gaze. To finish the look, Eldridge applied a luscious, peach-toned glossy lip, flawlessly blending it to achieve a soft, blurred effect.

Inspired by mermaids, Lauren Reynolds experimented with pastel tones alongside matte and metallic textures to create a wet, otherworldly finish for Charli XCX. She also added single-strand lashes to build long, separated wing lashes and white lines as a nod to old Hollywood glamour.
