The 7 Best Beauty Looks from Cannes 2023 Red-Carpet
We rounded up the best beauty looks from the red carpet that stole our breath away.
The 76th Annual Cannes Film Festival began on Tuesday, May 16 and runs through Saturday, May 27, so over those 12 days, the stars will be descending on the French Riviera to support their projects with press conferences, photo shoots, and premieres. Not only that, but this is their chance to showcase all kinds of fashion, from looks inspired by the Mediterranean coast of southeastern France to dresses reminiscent of old Hollywood, stunning hairstyles, radiant makeovers to remember, and more!
As the 76th annual festival progresses, a star-studded guest lineup continues to light up the red carpet with sleek hairstyles, unique makeup styles and glowing skin, including Scarlett Johanson, Gemma Chan, Natalie Portman, Viola Davis, Aishwarya Rai and Elle Fanning, just to name a few, on everyone’s lips for their stunning looks.
Cannes is two full and glorious weeks of premieres, panels, daytime events, sponsored parties and black-tie galas, all in a row, which means a much wider variety of styles to be inspired by.
Nude eyelids, bold lips, jelly glosses, wet-look hairstyles, smoky eyes, hair dye and mermaid waves were just some of the trends seen on the red carpet.
Let’s take a look at some of the best beauty looks from Cannes 2023.
GIGI HADID
Makeup artist Patrick Ta created Hadid’s warm, summer-friendly makeup for the festival. A striking contrast to the cool tones of her platinum blonde hair, Hadid’s coconut brown lip liner played with the same colour palette as her structured dress.
ALESSANDRA AMBROSIO
Two words to describe Alessandra’s gorge at the Killers of the Flower Moon premiere? To quote the model herself, “smoky elegance”.
NATALIE PORTMAN
Actress Natalie Portman attended the 2023 Cannes Film Festival red carpet wearing a flawless bun hairstyle that effortlessly balanced minimalistic sleekness with a voluminous silhouette. Similarly, her makeup echoed this harmonious blend as she paired smoky eyes with softly muted pink-nude lips.
DUA LIPA
Dua Lipa made a stunning appearance on the red carpet of the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, exuding a captivating blend of grungy glamour. Her long, piece-y fringe and silver-toned smoky eyes, which have undeniably made a comeback for 2023, added to her striking allure.
JENNIE RUBY JANE
SCARLETT JOHANSSON
Scarlet Johansson dazzled on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival wearing her blond hair tucked behind her ears, icy eyeshadow, plenty of pinky blush and red lipstick, ticking off this season’s make-up trends with aplomb.
GRACE ELIZABETH
Grace Elizabeth emanated a sense of timeless elegance with her precisely defined makeup and a vintage-inspired approach to her short crop. Her look exuded old-school glamour, capturing the essence of classic beauty.
