The Most Stunning Hair and Makeup Looks From the 2019 British Fashion Awards

Rihanna was the most anticipated guest of the evening, and she didn't disappoint. While her mint-green dress and diamond-studded choker (which actually connected to her gauze-y jacket) was certainly the focal point of her look, we couldn't help but notice her flawless makeup, which involved mostly matte textures and subtle contours on the eyes, cheeks, and lips.

A look so nice we had to show you twice. Rihanna wore her hair in braids that formed a circular pattern around her head, with more that started at the crown of her head and fell down her back — mimicking the crystal-studded chains of her coat.

Never one to step out with a snooze-y beauty look, Ora won the most extra makeup look of the evening with her graphic-and-glittery blue eyeliner..

The Game of Thrones star kept things classic (and incredibly festive!) with red lips, feather brows, and a low chignon with a clean side-parting.

The singer chopped her peachy-pink hair into a blunt lob for the occasion, tucking the front pieces behind her ears to show off her shoulder-grazing earrings. As for her makeup, Larsson got conceptual with floating eyeliner that was placed just above the creases of her eyes.

With twinkly shadow all over her lids and a shiny lip gloss, Campbell's makeup was a sparkly as her gown, which featured crystal-and-sequin appliqués attached to a sheer bodice. Look closely and you can also see a classic Campbell makeup trick that the model has been doing for years: a two-toned lip that, in photos, ensures lips looks full and pouty.

The Last Christmas star kept her hair and makeup clean and simple to not compete with her electric-yellow gown and earrings. Simple black winged liner and lip gloss — as well as a complexion as luminous as a Christmas bauble — was all it took to pull the entire look together.

It may have been freezing outside, but Roberts looks like a true California girl with natural-looking makeup and easy, tousled waves that make us miss Summer even more.

Little Simz's full-on Gucci ensemble was full of color, which meant she kept her makeup fairly neutral — shimmery grey eyes, a gorgeous toffee-colored lip — and her hair hanging lose under her bright orange hat.

Sampaio added shock of color to her beige-and-crystal gown with a swipe of red lipstick so bright, it bordered on the neon. The color in question? Giorgio Armani Beauty Lip Maestro Matte Liquid Lipstick in 409.

Makeup artist Manuele Mameli matched Ferragni's lids to her sparkly emerald Etro gown. A touch of gold shadow placed at the inner corners of her eyes offered a highlight — and made this look feel extra festive for the season.

It's been a busy few weeks for Scherzinger. First she and the Pussycat Dolls announced a 2020 tour, followed by a reunion performance on reunion performance on the X Factor: Celebrity and the debut of a new song. She also found time to try out a new hairstyle. We love the chin-grazing blunt bob, which she paired with sultry smoky eyes and the most perfect shade of taupe-tan lipstick.

Legendary makeup artist Mary Greenwell swiped on a petal-pink lipstick from Giorgio Armani Beauty (Blanchett is a face of the brand), while hairstylist and colorist Nicola Clarke styled her hair into a gorgeous French twist — the better to show off those amazing chandelier earrings.

We're getting major Robert Palmer vibes from the model/activist with her slicked back bob, winged liner, and vampy red lips.

The BBC Radio 1 presenter often rocks a gorgeous dark lip, and tonight was no exception. We love the bordeaux hue and how it both contrasts and complements her peach off-the-shoulder gown.

The big gold bow on her dress certainly stole the show, but James and her makeup artist made sure to find a way to tie her makeup in with her ensemble, blending bronze and gold shadows onto her lids and shaping them into sharp feline-esque wings.

The sprinter (and fastest British woman in recorded history, NBD) stepped out in a sparkly ensemble for the evening. And while she kept her makeup low-key, we love how she tied up her braids into a high ponytail, which then cascaded down her neck in shiny, springy ringlets.

The standout of Tracee Ellis Ross's look is, of course, her incredible hair. The owner of haircare brand Pattern Beauty, wore two braids styled in two large loops on either side of her head, making her look even more angelic than usual. The loop was topped off with Twiggy-style mascara drawn onto her lower lashes.

Lady Mary Charteris isn't bored of rose gold yet and after seeing her colored beach waves, neither are we. For her makeup, she wore a matching shimmer shade across the lids, topped off with a matte rose lip color.

Oversized Alice bands have been all the rage this year, but we love that Geldof chose to go with this exaggerated satin number, which added something extra to her pale gown and subdued makeup.

Inky black smoky eyes with touches of silver at the inner corners made for some seriously smoldering smoky eyes on Palvin. She kept things simpler when it came to her hair, choosing to leave it down in soft waves.

We'e seen a lot of statement-making hats recently (here's looking at you Ellie Goulding), and we love the flat top of Bruna's combined with the gold hardware. To keep all the focus on the accessory and keep it from looking too costume-y, we love the choice of keeping her hair straight and sleek, and her makeup glowy and natural.

Light pink and green are our new favorite festive shades thanks to Raye rocking them on the red carpet with a voluminous bob.

From far away, it looks like Paget's wearing your basic black winged liner. But look closer, and the sharp-as-a-knife cat eye is actually brown eye shadow that starts at the inner corners of her eyes, follows along the creases, and extends out past the tails of her brows. A neatly-parted low chignon allows the eye makeup — and her epic earrings — take centre stage.

Just when we thought the music sister duo Ami and Aya Suzuki made their hot pink blunt bob the standout of their look, we zoomed in on the double winged liner. They didn't stick to just a regular cat eye, instead they added a red sparkly wing over the top, creating a bold double liner.

With a graphic ponytail and taupe eyes, cheeks, and lips, Hosk's beauty look was as sculpted as her abs, which she showed off in a sequin co-ord.

Thorne loves to have fun with her makeup and she did just that for the BFAs. We love the unexpected combination of teal under-liner and fuchsia lipstick, and how she also made sure to put her freckles on display.
