The first Monday in May has arrived, meaning it is once again time for the Met Gala. Every year, we look forward to watching our favorite celebrities stroll across the Metropolitan Museum of Art's red carpet in looks inspired by the night's theme. The 2024 dress code is "The Garden of Time"—a nod to the Costume Institute's new exhibition, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion."

Since it's Fashion's Biggest Night, every superstar attendee (like Zendaya and Selena Gomez) will undoubtedly commemorate the evening in extravagant, show-stopping attire. However, their beauty looks are bound to be equally exciting, and we'll be keeping a very close eye on them throughout the night. From standout hair moments to mesmerizing makeup touches, find the best beauty looks from the 2024 Met Gala ahead.

Everything about Gigi Hadid's glam, from her hair to her makeup, screams old Hollywood glamour. We're obsessed with her high-shine red lipstick, rosy cheeks, and bouncy bob.

Her entire makeup look can be achieved using Maybelline New York products. Use the Super Stay Vinyl Ink in Red-Hot and Wicked to get her red lip. To recreate her baby pink cheeks, use the Sunkisser Liquid Blush & Bronzer ($12) in Uptown Glow and Cheek Heat Gel-Cream Blush in Nude Burn ($8).

It's giving Forest Queen. All of the brown tones—from her lip gloss to her hair—give this look such an earthy feel. Her go-to makeup artist, Etienne Ortega, used Charlotte Tilbury on Lana's face and eyes, including the Magic Cream ($100), Beautiful Skin Foundation ($49), and Super Nudes Easy Eye Palette ($60).

We can always count on Doja Cat to do something unexpected with her makeup. Her glitter tears and slanted, skinny brows are so creative and cool. "We used glitter to paint shimmering, enchanted tears of joy streaming down her cheeks," says Pat McGrath, who was behind the look.

"On her lids, we created the most beautiful gilded cat eyes using black pencil, black liquid liner, lots of mascara, and the warm scintillating shades in my Mothership V: Bronze Seduction palette. She looks absolutely major!"

“The contrast between the black gloves and delicate blue tulle of Sydney’s custom Miu Miu gown inspired me to create a look that felt edgy, yet ethereal and feminine," she says.
