The VMAs are here, and we're so ready. After what's felt like an especially excellent year for music, with releases from artists like Lizzo, Megan Thee Stallion and Taylor Swift, it's no surprise that the stars who brought us the biggest hits are now breaking the internet with the best beauty looks they've shown us all year.

Just as we expected, we saw some amazing looks at this year's show. The red carpet trends ranged from natural face beats to Euphoria-inspired glittery eyes and even a full-on 1960s bouffant. Keep scrolling to see the celeb looks we'll be talking about until the next red carpet.
