After a short break from her summer of red carpet slam dunks, Zendaya is back and serving up another enviable beauty look at the 2026 Emmy Awards.
Tonight, she’s walking the red carpet at the Peacock Theater in Downtown Los Angeles for both business and pleasure: The actor is nominated for outstanding lead actress in a drama series for her role as Rue in the final season of Euphoria, as well as presenting the award for best comedy actress.

Zendaya worked with makeup artist Ernesto Casillas and hairstylist Coree Moreno to create a stunningly natural look. The final touch of her beauty routine? A spritz of Prada Beauty’s newest fragrance, Paradoxe Sweet Chemistry, a scent the star describes as “sweet without being overbearing.” (Zendaya is the face of the campaign.) It’s a fun bit of synergy for the newlywed, too—husband Tom Holland is the face of Prada’s men’s fragrance, Paradigme. When it came to hair, Zendaya and Moreno kept it simple, styling her pixie straight into a Halle Berry-esque coif.
The entire look is a stark change from the bold lilac shadow and curls we saw earlier this week at a New York Fashion Week event. But then again, Zendaya is the ultimate fashion and beauty chameleon, and this is just another hit for the mood boards.
