The 10 Best Celeb Beauty Moments From Coachella 2026

We've discussed the worst-dressed celebs at Coachella 2026 weekend one, as well as Coachella 2026 weekend two's worst-dressed celebs, but thankfully, the festival's beauty moments weren't nearly as disappointing. Held in Indio, California, from Friday, April 10, to Sunday, April 12, as well as from Friday, April 17, to Sunday, April 19, the cult festival gathered some of the most famous faces in the entertainment industry. While some headed to the dessert to put on a show, others simply attended as festival guests, enjoying their time while watching performances and heading to the many side-parties that Coachella has become known for.

This year, celebrities showed us two main ways of upping their beauty game: Some decided to explore bold, futuristic, and sparkly trends, while others went back to beauty basics but with a modern twist. From Kylie Jenner's gorgeous manicure to Kacey Musgraves' bold eye makeup, here are the best beauty moments from everyone's favorite desert music getaway.

Kylie Jenner's subtle manicure was fun yet wearable

Reality television star Kylie Jenner attended both weekends of Coachella 2026, and for weekend two, she showcased her stunning manicure on Instagram. The star sported a classic almond-shaped French manicure, with her tips subtly bejeweled with a variety of sparkling accents. The manicure was simple yet fun, showcasing that classic looks can still look timeless, even with a bit of modern sparkle. The length that Jenner opted for was the perfect balance between feminine and practical, undeniably allowing her to have fun all weekend long.

Addison Rae's fiery hair suited her (and balanced her fierce makeup)

Addison Rae may have debuted her copper hair color prior to Coachella 2026, but the vibrant shade was still a major part of her on-stage look. The "Diet Pepsi" singer kept her hair natural-looking, with plenty of texture and movement. The color of her locks was fiery and bold, a departure from her natural brunette shade, and it perfectly balanced Rae's fun and daring makeup choices throughout the festival. Ultimately, while we weren't too fond of some of her Coachella fashion choices, Rae's hair and makeup more than made up for her fashion faux pas.

The Katseye girls brought back face gems just in time for summer

Anyone who's been keeping up with Katseye's fashion and beauty choices knows that these ladies never serve dull or forgettable looks. At Coachella, the members of Katseye looked cohesive with similar outfits and makeup, and for the latter, they decided to bring back the face jewels trend, noticeably rocking them along their eyelids. The trend gained major popularity in the late 2010s thanks to the hit drama series "Euphoria" but died down some in the 2020s. Now, though, it seems as if the "Gnarly" singers are bringing it back for summer 2026.

Hailey Bieber's strawberry cheekbones proved that bold blush trends reign supreme

As the first lady of Coachella 2026, all eyes were on Hailey Bieber's fashion and beauty choices this year. Hailey's husband, pop star Justin Bieber, was one of the headliners of this year's festival, which meant that the model attended both weekends. As Hailey's known for the clean-girl aesthetic, we didn't expect the model to venture out and give us colorful makeup looks. However, we did notice that Hailey went heavier with her blush, creating an almost sunburnt look. She clearly knew the best blush placement for her face shape, and the strawberry tone was beautiful.

Zara Larsson's hair clip added whimsy to her soft makeup look

Swedish pop singer Zara Larsson is known for her fun and quirky fashion and beauty looks, but while most of us expected the "Midnight Sun" singer to rock glitter and colorful eyeshadow, Larsson opted against it. Instead, she rocked subtle baby-pink makeup, which made her look fresh and natural. However, Larsson needed a bit of extra quirkiness for her look, and she definitely got it with her bright-yellow hair clip. Unexpected, but oh-so cute!

Karol G's wavy locks were the perfect example of beachy hair

When "Tusa" singer Karol G hit the stage at Coachella 2026, her fashion and beauty choices didn't disappoint. She looked stunning overall, but her hair in particular was one of the most stunning beauty choices we've seen this year. The Colombian star decided to go for effortless beachy waves, which, combined with her hair length, gave her an almost fairy-like appearance. The texture, the waves, and the blended highlight were perfection — and definitely a look worth recreating this summer!

Teyana Taylor's face jewelry and sunglasses were stunning

"One Battle After Another" star Teyana Taylor is known for her bold fashion and beauty, and her Coachella 2026 choices didn't disappoint. In fact, Teyana Taylor's spiciest fashion looks have always been about innovative ways to express herself, and the sunglasses and face jewelry she rocked at the festival definitely fit the pattern. The silver moment, featuring futuristic shades and lip jewelry, may not be something that everyone would gravitate toward, but we're so glad that Taylor did.

Kacey Musgraves' starry eye makeup was perfect for Coachella

Kacey Musgraves' Coachella 2026 outfit disappointed thanks to its predictability, but the star somewhat made up for her jeans and white tank top with her makeup. Musgraves rocked a fun metallic star around her right eye, serving us an asymmetrical and unpredictable makeup moment. Finished off with fake eyelashes, the eye makeup was something we couldn't look away from. The "Dry Spell" singer undeniably pulled the sparkly look off, giving us a festival makeup trend we hope to see more of in the future.

Sabrina Carpenter's updo and dangly earrings were a match made in heaven

As one of the headliners of Coachella 2026, Sabrina Carpenter put on a fabulous show filled with numerous fun beauty and fashion moments. And while picking just one is a tough task, we do particularly love the combination of her loose updo with dangly earrings. Sophisticated and chic, the look isn't something we see much of, especially because hoop earrings have been popular for years. However, for a classy beauty moment, dangly earrings will always be top tier, as the "House Tour" singer proved. 

PinkPantheress' no-makeup makeup look was a refreshing sight at Coachella

Coachella is known for fun makeup looks, which often involve colorful eyeshadows, face jewels, and bold lip colors, but the truth is that a no-makeup makeup look can be just as stunning. "Stateside" singer PinkPantheress performed at Coachella 2026 with barely there makeup, proving that not conforming to the festival's trends is cool, too. Like a breath of fresh air, the "Boy's a Liar" singer paired her clean face with soft, wispy bangs and straight, layered hair.
