Award season is still underway, which means that there is plenty of red carpet looks to add to our inspiration boards. On Sunday, February 28, television and film stars assembled at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California for the 28th Screen Actors Guild Awards where celebs donned sleek hairstyles, vibrant makeup looks, and intricate nail art. We rounded up some of our favorite glam looks from the evening, and even got the scoop on how to recreate each from the makeup artists and hair stylists who did them.
