30 of the Best Emmys Beauty Looks of All Time
With the Emmy Awards a few short weeks away, the excitement of seeing our favorite celebrities' beauty looks is making us nostalgic for the hair and makeup looks of years past. Some of our favorite stars have walked the red carpet dressed to the nines in honor of our favorite TV shows.
In the last 20 years alone, we've found endless inspiration for our next haircut or new tube of lipstick from everyone from Jennifer Aniston to Kerry Washington. So, after careful consideration, we've looked back at the most impressive beauty styles to ever grace the Emmys. And the award goes to . . .
Lisa Kudrow in 1998 
We hope Kudrow's slicked-back bob makes a comeback ASAP.
Sarah Jessica Parker 2000 
Parker's sleek half-up style looked both fun and chic.
Kristin Davis in 2003 
Davis was ahead of the coral blush trend 15 years ago.
Jennifer Aniston in 2004 
Women have always been trying to emulate Aniston's beachy waves and honey blond hair, especially after she stepped out in 2004.
Sandra Oh in 2005 
Oh's loose curls and wash of blue shadow were a simple yet fun choice for the red carpet.
Halle Berry in 2005 
As always, Berry looked like a dime with her sleek ponytail and bronze makeup at the Emmy Awards in 2005.
Marcia Cross in 2005 
We're still desperately in love with Cross's monochromatic peach makeup from 2005.
Tyra Banks in 2006 
Banks is "smizing" thanks to these out-to-here lashes.
Eva Longoria in 2007 
Longoria's curled bob was just as playful as her bedazzled gown.
Alyson Hannigan in 2009 
Hannigan would make Ariel herself jealous with these auburn waves.
Leighton Meester in 2009 
In 2009, Meester took a page out of Blair Waldorf's book with a romantic braided up-do.
Blake Lively in 2009 
Lively's dramatically long braid made our collective jaws drop back in 2009.
Sofia Vergara in 2012 
A bronzed Vergara mastered the cat eye in 2012.
Lucy Liu in 2012 
Liu's side ponytail was just as sleek and shiny as her silver dress.
Mindy Kaling in 2012 
Kaling took a break from making us laugh until we cry to strut down the red carpet with a berry lip and smoky eye in 2012.
Tina Fey in 2013 
Even Regina George would have to admit that Fey's 2013 Emmy Awards look was fresh-faced and stunning.
Kerry Washington in 2014 
Washington proved blue eye shadow and orange can be complementary colors.
Sarah Hyland in 2015 
Anyone else immediately print out this picture of Hyland's chin-length bob and bring it to their hairstylist?

Roberts brought the Hollywood glamour with her long, platinum waves.
Laverne Cox in 2016 
Cox looked stunning in head-to-toe gold in 2016.

Chopra solidified her place as a beauty icon with this bold red lip and sleek low ponytail.

Felicity Huffman in 2017 
We're not sure if our hair has ever looked as voluminous and gorgeous as Felicity Huffman's in 2017.
Evan Rachel Wood in 2017 
The muted hues of Wood's makeup in 2017 made her blue eyes pop.
Zoë Kravitz in 2017 
Kravitz made a strong case for pixie cuts back in 2017.
Gina Rodriguez in 2017 
As soon as we spotted Rodriguez's deep red cat eye in 2017, we fell head over heels.

We've never seen a winged liner as fierce as Shahidi's in 2017.
Jane Fonda in 2017
