The Best Beauty Looks from the 2025 Grammy Awards

The 2025 Grammys took place on February 2nd at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, marking the first major awards show since the city was impacted by devastating wildfires earlier in the month. Trevor Noah returned as host for the fifth consecutive year, kicking off an awards season that balances celebration with reflection.

In January, the Recording Academy in, MusiCares CEO Harvey Mason Jr., and board chair Tammy Hurt confirmed the event would continue as scheduled. However, this year’s ceremony has a deeper purpose, aiming to raise funds for wildfire relief and honor the bravery of first responders.

Beyoncé led the nominations for the 67th Grammys with 11 nods, followed by Charli XCX, Billie Eilish, and Kendrick Lamar with seven each. While the major categories were highly competitive, the race for Best New Artist was especially tight, with breakout stars Doechii, Chappell Roan, and Sabrina Carpenter all in the running.

The Grammys red carpet is known for bold beauty moments, and 2025 was no exception. From striking makeup to sleek hairstyles, the night was a showcase of glamour.

Here are the standout beauty looks from the 2025 Grammys:
