This Week in Beauty and Glam: January 2025
Welcome to your weekly roundup of the most dazzling, innovative, and talked-about beauty and glam news of January 2025. From the runways to the red carpets, here’s what’s making waves in the world of beauty.
Golden Globes Glamour
The Golden Globes set this year’s beauty trends in motion. Moreover, stars showcased everything from ethereal gold to bold, daring styles. Demi Moore, for example, made her first Globes appearance since 2009 in a stunning gold ensemble. Her timeless glamour, in turn, set a high bar for the night. The event also offered endless beauty inspiration, blending sophistication with avant-garde touches. Notably, lustrous satin finishes in makeup stole the spotlight. [US Magazine]
Demi Moore chose a custom Giorgio Armani Privé dress for the Golden Globes 2025 red carpet on Sunday in Los Angeles. Her look featured a strapless champagne silk gown accented with a curved geometric detail embellished with Swarovski crystals. She paired it with Christian Louboutin shoes.
Moore was styled by her longtime collaborator Brad Goreski, who also works with Kaley Cuoco and Ashley Park. Goreski and Moore worked together during the entire press tour of “The Substance,” which saw the actress in looks by Schiaparelli, Loewe, Chanel, Bach Mai, Oscar de la Renta, Balenciaga, Giorgio Armani Privé and Tom Ford, among others. – WWD

Blending Beauty with Wellness: Ingredients traditionally found in supplements are now making their way into beauty products, blurring the lines between beauty and health.

That’s all from Grok.
Here’s a piece I recently wrote delving into the irresistible charm of rom-com lips.
You know the ones—they’re perfectly glossy, effortlessly pouty, and seem to embody every romantic moment on screen. From that first shy kiss to the dramatic rain-soaked reunion, these lips are practically a character of their own. Something is captivating about how they balance glamour and approachability, making us all wonder if achieving that look could somehow transform our lives into a cinematic love story.
