Celebrity makeup artist Kelsey Deenihan prepped the supermodel's skin with ALLEVEN Total Face Serum ($141). And if you're wondering what the brow queen's choice of brow product for the night was, look no further. Deenihan says, "Cara’s natural brows need very little perfecting, but I used the DiorShow Brow Styler in 002 Universal Brown ($30) to fill in any sparse areas and enhance the shape."

Christian Serratos

"The rusty smoky eye had bronze and a bit of a red undertone with deep brown black along the lash line topped off with a perfectly sculpted face and a nude lip. To me this is the ultimate sexy makeup," says the star's makeup artist for the night, Jenna Kristina.

Kristina broke down the products she used to Byrdie exclusively: "For her eyes, the Dior 5 Couleurs Mitzah eyeshadow palette was perfect to match the look we were going for. Then, I used for a matte brown eyeliner along the lash line and topped off with Diorshow mascara."

Kristin Cavallari

Makeup artist Kate Synnott told Byrdie this exclusively about the inspiration behind this look: "I wanted this look to be super dreamy and soft, so the main technique would be blending out any harsh lines. The magic is all in the blending. Light and feather-like strokes really work for makeup application, keeping it long-lasting so it stays in place."

On her lips is ICONIC London Lustre Lip Oil in Sugar Mama ($26) in combination with Charlotte Tilbury's Iconic Nude ($22) and Very Victoria ($34). ALLEVEN All-in-One Concealer, Foundation and Treatment ($147) in the shade Sand gave her a flawless finish.

Doja Cat

Celebrity hairstylist Jared Henderson kept Doja Cat’s cute cropped 'do shiny and vibrant with Joico’s Defy Damage Hair Care System. Henderson says the must-have beauty product to get this look is the Joico Blonde Life Brilliant Glow Brightening Oil ($23). "It gave both our looks maximum shine while also helping control frizz with all of the movement Doja was doing on stage," the hairstylist adds.
