Priyanka Chopra, 2016
Here's definitive proof that a well executed red lip will never go out of style. Priyanka Chopra dominated the Emmys beauty game at the 2016 awards with this absolutely flawless matte red lip, with an assist from power brows and a shiny low pony.

Diahann Carroll, 1986
Major lashes. Major arches. And very major cheekbones. Diahann Carroll was the first black actress to ever be nominated in the "Lead Actress in a Comedy Series" category back in 1969, and boy did she serve up the looks.

Keri Russell, 2000
With her crown of curls, apple cheeks and pink lips, Keri Russell looked downright cherubic on the Emmy red carpet back in 2000. It's quite the contrast to her new look -- nowadays, you'll likely catch her rocking a sleek 'do with co-star and boo Matthew Rhys on her arm.

Laverne Cox, 2014
Is Laverne Cox's contour game flawless, or what? Her eyeshadow and eyelashes are gorgeous too, of course, but it's her expertly painted cheekbones (read: that highlight!) that steal the show.

Demi Moore, 1988
Of course Demi Moore absolutely crushed her Emmys beauty look back in the late '80s. She wore her hair in a trendy-at-the-time curly pompadour accented with shiny drop earrings and rocked some truly great wild '80s brows, as well as a classic red lip. Oh, and bonus points for her arm candy: a tuxedo-clad Bruce Willis.
