Every Beauty Moment From the 1998 Emmy Awards That Has Stood the Test of Time

The Emmys are just a few weeks away, and we can't wait to see what stunning beauty looks our favorite celebrities will rock on the red carpet. With so many '90s trends making a comeback, we wouldn't be surprised if this year's stars take a little inspiration from the looks we saw at 50th Annual Emmy Awards back in 1998.

Stars like Katie Holmes, Angelina Jolie, and Halle Berry all sported hair and makeup looks that were not only innovative and trendsetting at the time, but are still super relevant and stylish by today's standards. While we'll have to wait a little longer to see what beauty trends will reign supreme at this year's ceremony, take a trip down memory lane to see the best beauty moments from 20 years ago.
