When it comes to sourcing new beauty inspiration, we can always count on celebrities on the red carpet to introduce us to a new product or show-stopping trend. Last year, we saw the return of some old favorites - like Taylor Swift's trusted red lip and the controversial jellyfish haircut - and this year, we're already seeing some affordable beauty surprises (we're talking under $20!).
While celebrity glam is more typically associated with high-end, luxury beauty products, many celebrities use more budget-friendly products for their red carpet looks. Sarah Pidgeon achieved the perfect editorial knot with a $16 mousse; Paige DeSorbo sported a $10 blush; Tate McRae used a $17 hair gloss; "Love Island" star Olandria Carthen used $10 body oil for her red carpet glow; Keke Palmer grabbed $9 mousse to keep her hair frizz-free; and Selena Gomez opted for a $16 cleanser to prep her skin.
Ahead, we rounded up the best affordable beauty products under $40 that today's biggest stars relied on for their red carpet appearances this year. From drugstore favorites to hair-care staples to plenty of editor-approved skin-care products, these beauty must haves will make it easy to achieve A-list glam - even if you're on a budget.
