Rachel Brosnahan's Hair and Makeup 2018 Golden Globes

We Can't Tear Our Eyes Away From Rachel Brosnahan's Gravity-Defying Ballerina Bun

Rachel Brosnahan's Hair and Makeup 2018 Golden Globes

The Golden Globes red carpet was filled with a plethora of head-turning beauty looks, but Rachel Brosnahan's gorgeous getup certainly stood out among the sea of black dresses. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star, who took home the award for best comedy actress in a television musical or comedy, wore her hair in the most mesmerizing ballerina bun that immediately caught our attention.

Celebrity hairdresser Ted Gibson took the reins with Rachel's locks, pulling them into an updo that was perfectly perched atop her head all evening. First, Ted sprayed Leonor Greyl Condition Naturelle ($38) from her scalp to the middle of her hair and followed up by using Leonor Greyl Mousse au Lotus Volumatrice ($46) from midlength to the ends of her hair for heat protection before giving her a blowout. After using a nylon and boar bristle brush (nylon detangles and the boar bristles smooth) during the blowout, he separated her hair into one-inch sections and used a flat iron to create a bevel, rather than a curl. Ted then used a bungee hair tie to pull her strands into a ponytail on top of her head, twisted it into a chignon, and secured everything with bobby pins.

The finishing touch? Nestled in her picture-perfect bun were three rosette embellishments that nearly blended in with her brown hair and were made from the same fabric as her gown. How chic!

As for makeup, Rachel went for a fresh-faced, '60s-esque look with Laura Mercier products. Makeup artist Lisa Aharon began by prepping Rachel's skin with Perfecting Water Moisture Mist ($38) and her lips with Infusion de Rose Nourishing Lip Balm ($24). To master that flawless, glowing complexion, Lisa applied Flawless Fusion Ultra-Longwear Foundation ($48) and Candleglow Concealer and Highlighter ($32) to her skin, then used a foundation brush to pat a bit of Creme Cheek Colour ($25) in the Canyon shade over the apples and high points of her cheeks.

To achieve Rachel's smoldering eye makeup, she blended the Amethyst and Burnished Bronze shades of Laura Mercier's Caviar Stick Eye Color ($29) and followed it up with Long Lash Mascara ($26) and a bit of Longwear Crème Eye Pencil ($25) in Noir.
