The 2024 Oscars are officially here, with the inevitable glitz and glamour that comes with the annual Academy Awards. And where there’s a red carpet, there’s a whole host of celebrities rocking top-notch hair and makeup looks. Whether it was Emily Blunt’s ballerina bun, Anya Taylor-Joy’s waist-length hair and glowing skin, or America Ferrera’s hydro-bob, this year’s 96th Academy Awards brought the most beautiful looks.
From glamorous waves and old Hollywood-style red lips to statement updos and modern takes on red carpet classics, these are the best beauty looks from this year’s Oscars.
Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner wowed at the Oscar after-party with an effortless and delicate updo, a gently flushed complexion and ruby red lips.
Sydney Sweeney
Euphoria and Anyone But You star Sydney Sweeney hit the red carpet with a shaggy yet elegant bob and paired her fresh haircut with gold, monochromatic makeup.
Da’Vine Joy Randolph
Oscar winner Da’Vine Joy Randolph made a convincing case for both undone updos and expressive gothic lips at the awards ceremony after-party.
Alexander Daddario
Red lips were everywhere on the after party red carpet, but this glossy oxblood finish from Alexandra Daddario was by far our favorite. Do we even need to mention her flawless slicked-back bun? A compelling argument for side-parting here.
Lupita Nyong’o
This architectural updo was a complete transformation from Nyong’o’s ceremonial red carpet look. Blue eyeshadow and glossy charcoal lips? It’s safe to say we’re obsessed with this maximalist makeup.
