This time, the Oscars red carpet did not disappoint. And it wasn’t just the outfits that caught our eye but a combination of beauty trends that kept us glued to the screen. From the subtle allure of unfocused lips to the curves of modern bobs, each trend was beauty reimagined and redefined. Simply, here’s a list of our absolute favourites.
Peach/Strawberry Glam
Hailee Steinfeld, Margot Robbie, and Emma Stone embraced the peach and strawberry glam. Spotted multiple times on the carpet, this trend popularised by Mrs. Bieber, highlights monochromatic makeup at its best – fresh, vibrant, and downright angelic.
Curved Bobs
Zendaya, Sydney Sweeny, and Carey Mulligan are not just names but the bearers of the bob revolution. Zendaya’s side-parted bob was a standout with its timelessness. These trendsetters showcased that whether it’s sleek or tousled, a bob is your best bet for a chic look.
Volume Is IN
Echoing the voluminous vibes of Miley Cyrus at the Grammys, stars like Billie Eilish and Becky G brought back big waves, proving that when it comes to hair, bigger is indeed better. Fran Drescher took it a notch higher, blending old Hollywood bouffant with a modern twist – a braid at the base, redefining volume with a dash of classic charm.
Variations Of The Fringe
Ah, the fringe – the world loves to hate it but Vanessa Hudgens with her single tendril, Kim Kardashian’s eye-catching patch, and Ariana Grande’s baby flicks, each offered a unique take on the dreaded comeback of high school’s most popular rebel haircut.
Updos
The elegance of up-dos was reimagined by Emily Blunt, Issa Rae, and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan. From Blunt’s delicate princess-like do to Rae’s classic twist and Ramakrishnan’s tendrils that softened a messy bun into an elegant updo, these styles remind us of the transformative power of a well-crafted up-do.
From the revival of classic styles to the embrace of fresh, fruity makeup, the night was a celebration of beauty in all its forms. And as we look forward to what the future holds, one thing is for sure: the Oscars will continue to be a space where Hollywood’s royalty put their best look forward.
