Selena Gomez’s Golden Globes Look Was One For the Books—Here’s How to Recreate Her Sleek Pony & Glowing Skin

Selena Gomez might not have taken home the 2023 Golden Globe last night for Only Murders in the Building, but her look was definitely a winner in our book. While Sel truly does it all—acting, singing and a founder of an incredibly successful beauty brand—this was her first time being nominated for the prestigious award (though we’re willing to bet this won’t be the last). So it only made sense that she would go big for the award show ceremony, where she wore a show-stopping Valentino velvet gown with a high-slit and statement puff sleeves.

As for her glam, the rare beauty herself was dipped and covered with a plethora of Rare Beauty and Rene Furterer products, with her high pony making way for her glowy visage to shine—and we’ve got all the details on what her hairstylist and makeup artist used to make it happen.

As evidenced by her frequent GRWM videos over on TikTok, Selena certainly practices what she preaches when it comes to actually using her own brand’s products for her makeup looks. For the Golden Globes, she made sure not to ruin a good thing—the good thing in question being having her fave Rare Beauty products by her side (or in this case, her face)—while tapping in makeup artist Hung Vanngo to glitz her up to perfection.

To achieve her dewy natural complexion, Selena’s look consisted of the Positive Light Under Eye Brightener (which has easily been going TikTok-viral), Liquid Touch Weightless Foundation, Liquid Touch Brightening Concealer, Warm Wishes Effortless Bronzer Stick and the Always An Optimist Soft Radiance Setting Powder to top it off. Her glam was then tied into her outfit through the use of a beautiful smoky mauve eye, courtesy of Rare Beauty’s Came To Play eyeshadow palette, which was prepped for the long night of festivities with the Always An Optimist Weightless Eye Primer.

And if you’ve been keeping up with the latest launches from the brand, you’ll find it no surprise that Selena’s makeup artist’s bag also was equipped with her Positive Light Silky Touch Highlighter (in shade Mesmerize) and her Kind Words matte lipstick in the hue “Worthy” and liner in “Wise.”

Paired with her low-cut neckline and gorgeous glam, hairstylist Marissa Marino’s vision for Selena’s hairdo called for the sleekest of ponytails. In an emailed statement from Rene Furterer, the brand disclosed the items Marissa had at her disposal. “I started by blow drying her hair smooth with an Olivia Garden ceramic round brush,” the hairstylist noted. “Then, I added René Furterer STYLE Holding Gel and pulled her hair into a high ponytail, leaving out her front bang area, and secured with a hair tie.”

She continued, “Next, I curled the ponytail with the Olivia Garden 1.25” curling iron, and sprayed with René Furterer STYLE Finishing Spray. Then, I brushed the bang area back into the ponytail and wrapped around the rubber band to secure.” The last step to top finish with a bang? René Furterer STYLE Shine Mist for extra shine.

Jennifer Aniston Swears By This $58 Brush—But We Found a Similar One That’s Less Than $9 on Amazon

If we could wake up each morning and have any celeb’s hair, it’d be Jennifer Aniston’s. She sets trends like no other; both the “Rachel Haircut” and “Modern Rachel Haircut” are iconic. And now, she’s even founded her own haircare brand, LolaVie. Though discovering which products she uses from her own brand is a total breeze, it’s not as easy to pinpoint the hair tools, such as brushes, that help her achieve her voluminous, shiny strands.

In October 2021, Jen posted a video on Instagram that shows exactly how she does her hair. Per usual, we put on our FBI hats and tracked down the two brushes shown in the tutorial. The first one, Wet Brush’s Brush Pro Flex Dry, was easy to find because of its unique shape and colors. The second one was a bit trickier, but after some digging, we finally found it. 

Jen An uses the rose gold S-Heart-S Scalp Brush. WTF is a scalp brush you might be wondering? Well, it does way more than your average brush. It features a massaging bead at the tip of each bristle that gets rid of residue and flakes, improves the effectiveness of your shampoo and promotes microcirculation to spread shampoo evenly. Of course, it also combs through knots with ease. The bristles are so relaxing, it’ll feel like you’re getting a head massage at the sink of a salon.

The catch? It’ll cost you two to three Uber Eats deliveries (a.k.a. $58) to get your hands on one. For those not feeling its nearly $60 price tag, we searched for an alternative that works just as well but costs a fraction of the price. In fact, our discovery is less than $9, so “pivot” your focus onto this bad boy and enjoy your new fave hair brush.

Ikemoto Seduce Hair Care Brush Amazon

Ikemoto’s Seduce Hair Care Brush is made in Japan and is great for massaging your scalp and gently detangling your hair. Like the S-Heart-S brush, its bristles also have tiny beads at the end. Though not metallic rose gold, the bright blue color is still super cute and hard to misplace.

Don’t believe the two brushes are that similar? The Ikemoto one flaunts a 4.6-star overall rating on Amazon, with some shoppers directly comparing the two.

“This Ikemoto brush is just as good, or as ‘normal’, as the S-Heart Scalp Brush,” wrote one reviewer. “Aside from the pretty and shiny rose-gold finish of the S-Heart Scalp Brush, I don’t feel or notice any other measurable difference. In other words, I can’t justify the cost of the very expensive S-Heart Scalp Brush when this IKEMOTO brush is so incredibly similar and works just as well on long, straight hair.”

Another shopper speaks more to the brush’s durability and how it feels on your scalp.

“This is hands down the best hair brush. It sounds dramatic but it is a fact. I got my first one in Japan. I’ve been using these brushes for literally 28 years,” wrote another reviewer. “It will last you a lifetime. It gets rid of any tangles you have with ease and without any pain. The bristles are firm but also soft and feel like a scalp massage when you run it through your hair. I’ve never had a single bristle fall out of my brushes and I use them twice daily.”

In other words, Ikemoto’s Seduce Hair Care Brush does an A+ job at massaging your scalp and detangling your hair, but it’ll also last you for ages—maybe even 28 years!

Whether you splurge on the Jennifer Aniston-loved S-Heart-S Scalp Brush or go for the more budget-friendly option from Ikemoto, your hair is about to look so gorgeous. Shop Ikemoto’s Seduce Hair Care Brush for just $9 on Amazon and you’ll soon have hair just like Rachel’s.

Newest TikTok sensation Alix Earle has made quite the splash across the social platform—the 22-year-old has garnered over 3 million followers (and climbing) to date. While her content is hardly original, there’s something alluring about each video she puts out. Whether she’s spilling the tea on her relationship status or sharing her go-to makeup products, it’s safe to say we’re all hooked for one reason or another.

It’s no secret her platinum blonde strands are the focus of many of her ‘Get Ready With Me’ videos; Earle has continually showcased the exact products she uses to achieve her voluminous, bouncy hair. While her collection is seemingly always changing, there are several core products she easily favors, some of which stem into luxury territory or go for as low as $15.

If you’re curious what Earle keeps in her vanity on a regular basis, you’ll find a complete breakdown of everything we’ve spotted in her TikTok’s as of late down below.

Real Housewives of Miami 2023 Instagram Fashion

We’re throwin’ it back again to when Page Six posted a snap of Lisa Hochstein looking like a ten. She wore a black crystal embellished outfit and paired it with some solid arm candy. It’s nice to see her out there thriving after watching the drama unfold on RHOM. Almost as nice as watching a Style Stealer of this ‘fit unfold in our hands.
