Best in Beauty at the 2015 AMAs

These 9 celebs gave good face on the red carpet.

By Virginia Lowman · November 23, 2015October 27, 2020
01
Bronzed Beauty

Christina Milian’s AMA beauty look was all about classic contouring and strobing. Simple. Gorgeous. Always red carpet appropriate.

02
Midnight Goddess

Ciara offers a lesson in rep carpet chic: mattify your skin, stain your lips and focus all of your attention on the eyes. This charcoal shimmery smokey eyes she’s rocking is everything!

03
Up The Lash Factor

We love how Nicki elevates a simple beauty look with voluminous lashes. To follow her lead, keep your makeup look simple, opting for soft or nude palettes, then up the ante with a set of lengthy lashes.

04
Matte About it!

Zendaya’s beauty M.O. was decked out in pink. We love the simplicity of this look without compromising on the pretty factor. A simple flush on the cheeks, a bold matte lip and a volumizing mascara on the lashes. If you love this lip, try Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Liptick in Blush

$20, available at anastasiabeverlyhills.com

Perfect Nudes

Karrueche is becoming our beauty girl crush; her red carpet looks are always spot on. At the 2015 AMAs, she and bestie, Christina Milian were twinning with high top buns. Karrueche complimented her updo by pairing it with a perfect matte lip, nude skin and winged liner. She’s mastered the art of effortless beauty.

Effortless Beauty

Empire beauty, Serayah McNeil, was flawless on the red carpet; sporting luxe lashes, nude lips and shimmering eyes. Love this look? Read our Get the Look for the inside scoop on how you can copy it!

07
A Pinch of Color

Wet N’ Wild ambassador Kat Graham dazzled the red carpet with shimmering eyes and a pop of bright yellow in her inner corners. She kept her lips simple, topping them with matte nude.

08
Daddy’s Girl

We all love Tyrese, but at this year’s AMAs his daughter, Shayla Gibson, stole the show. I mean, what’s not to love about her perfect skin and those gorgeous high cheek bones?!

09
Sahara Sunset Shadow

We’ve been eyeing the red shadow trend for a while now, and last night celebs were rocking it in full force. Normani Hamilton of 5th Harmony paried the trend with winged liner, groomed brows and glossy lips.
