5 Iconic Lipstick Looks from Met Gala 2025 You Can Recreate at Home with GoPlay lipstick maker

The Met Gala 2025 red carpet served up everything we expected—and then some. From sculptural gowns to sky-high hair, the beauty looks were bold, nostalgic, and totally screenshot-worthy. And if you’re a lipstick lover (hi, hello, us too 👋), this year’s lips were the moment.

Of course, there were some hits, some misses, and a whole lot of inspo. The best part? You don’t need a celebrity glam squad or a five-figure beauty budget to pull off these looks. With GoPlay’s lipstick maker, you can create custom lipstick dupes from the comfort of your own vanity—for a fraction of the cost.

Below, we break down five of the most iconic Met Gala 2025 lipstick moments, plus how you can DIY your own versions with affordable, clean ingredients using the GoPlay LipsKit.

1. Zendaya’s ‘90s Nude Comeback

Her sculpted nude lip with a caramel undertone gave major supermodel energy. A warm brown base with a touch of peach is all you need to nail this vibe.
