The 27th Annual Screen Actors Guild is considered to be an awards show for actors by actors — a celebration of the craft above all else. But that doesn’t mean that any of the presenters or attendees are skimping on the glam. In fact, despite the fact that this year’s show isn’t just virtual, it’s actually been pre-recorded and edited to a bite-sized, hour-long event as a social distancing practice, the stars didn’t hold back when it came to hair, makeup, and nail art. The best beauty looks for the 2021 SAG Awards ranged from clean and classic to cool and creative, with so many ideas to try on your own.

Last year brought so many memorable looks — remember Charlize Theron’s sparkling middle part, Zoe Kravitz’s monochromatic makeup, and Cynthia Erivo’s glittery liner? — and despite posing remotely, this year’s cast of virtual attendees, including Lily Collins, Viola Davis, Cynthia Erivo, Daisy Ridley, and Helen Mirren, were determined to shine just as brightly, regardless of the lack of red carpet.

From Kerry Washington’s bejeweled manicure to Helen Mirren’s petal-hued put, the show’s best beauty looks offered plenty of inspiration for your next excuse to get glam — if only at home for your own enjoyment. See them all ahead.

The 2021 SAG Awards Best Beauty Looks: Mindy Kaling

Mindy Kaling’s makeup artist for the night, Janice Kinjo, said she wanted to “accentuate the modern goddess look.” Kinjo certainly delivered as the actor and presenter’s skin was glowing like no other and topped off with flushed coral cheeks and up-to-there lashes (courtesy of No7 The Full 360 Ultra All-In-One Mascara).

The 2021 SAG Awards Best Beauty Looks: Jamie Chung

Interested in testing out the money piece trend taking over hair salons (and IG feeds) all over? Well, take a page from Jamie Chung’s book. The actor and nominee’s waved hair featured bright blonde front pieces that felt so chic and of-the-moment.
