Pink Lipstick and Blonde Hair Are Taking Over the Emmys
Our favorite glam on all our favorite stars.


Every year, the Emmy Awards recognize excellence in television, highlighting actors, writers, directors, and other creatives who worked tirelessly on our favorite shows. At the 75th Annual Emmy Awards this year, top contenders include comedies like Abbott Elementary and Jury Duty, along with dramas like Succession (which cleaned up at the recent Golden Globe Awards) and Better Call Saul. And while we all have our eyes and ears peeled for our favorite shows, praying that they'll take home the night's most coveted awards, we also have our eyes on the stunning looks that television's top stars will be sporting on the red carpet.
Ahead, the best in beauty, from hair to makeup and beyond, at television's biggest night out.

Gabrielle Ulubay is a Beauty Writer at Marie Claire. She has also written about sexual wellness, politics, culture, and fashion at Marie Claire and at publications including The New York Times, HuffPost Personal, Bustle, Alma, Muskrat Magazine, O'Bheal, and elsewhere. Her personal essay in The New York Times' Modern Love column kickstarted her professional writing career in 2018, and that piece has since been printed in the 2019 revised edition of the Modern Love book. Having studied history, international relations, and film, she has made films on politics and gender equity in addition to writing about cinema for Film Ireland, University College Cork, and on her personal blog, gabrielleulubay.medium.com. Before working with Marie Claire, Gabrielle worked in local government, higher education, and sales, and has resided in four countries and counting. She has worked extensively in the e-commerce and sales spaces since 2020, and spent two years at Drizly, where she developed an expertise in finding the best, highest quality goods and experiences money can buy.
Deeply political, she believes that skincare, haircare, and sexual wellness are central tenets to one's overall health and fights for them to be taken seriously, especially for people of color. She also loves studying makeup as a means of artistic expression, drawing on her experience as an artist in her analysis of beauty trends. She's based in New York City, where she can be found watching movies or running her art business when she isn't writing.
