Britney Spears' ponytail was #onfleek with mermaid-worthy pastel ends and a braided accent.

Bronzed Goddess
Gigi Hadid looked every inch the supermodel with luminous skin and shimmery eye makeup, courtesy of Patrick Ta for Maybelline New York. (She's also making us reconsider our ban on frosted lipstick.)

Stylist Jennifer Yepez for GHD North America created her '70s-inspired 'do by blow drying her hair from the nape of her neck to the front, then applying mousse and thickening spray around her roots and teased them. To get the sleek finish, she straightened her hair with the GHD Platinum Styler.

Smoke It Out
Hailee Steinfeld's slicked-back hair allows her smoky cat eye, bold brows and contoured cheekbones to take center stage. Celebrity makeup artist Stephen Sollitto applied Laura Mercier Longwear Crème Eye Pencil in Noir with an angled liner brush to create her elongated cat eye. He then traced over it using Laura Mercier Baked Eye Color in Lagoon, and added it along her lower lash line as well for a colorful, youthful feel.

Make a Statement
Love her or hate her, VMA host Miley Cyrus certainly knows how to arrive. Her red carpet beauty look was one of the most daring looks of the night (as was her barely-there outfit). Surprisingly, we're kind of digging her matte red lipstick and blue liner combo.

Stylist Gregory Russell for Bed Head by TIGI created her over-the-top ponytail by using TIGI Bed Head Hard Head Gel to her wet hair and slicking it back into a ponytail. After drying her hair, he used TIGI Bed Head Hard to Get Texturizing Paste to create the texture in her ponytail.

Bob Mentality
We're copying Kat Graham's curly bob and cat eye combo for our next date-night.

It's finally time: The 2015 MTV Video Music Awards. The VMAs are famous for some of the most controversial musical performances (who could forget Miley Cyrus at the 2013 VMAs or Britney Spears' legendary performance with a giant snake) -- and some of the most daring fashion and beauty moments, like Lady Gaga's meat dress. What amazing beauty looks did the 2015 VMAs bring? We've gathered out favorites here.
