The Academy Awards are always rife with beauty inspiration. Here, marie claire’s Beauty Director, Sally, weighs in on who she thinks nailed the beauty brief at the 2021 ceremony.
Celeste Waite
Best Original Song nominee (‘Hear My Voice’ from The Trial of the Chicago 7) Celeste Waite let her beautiful natural texture do all the talking on the Oscars red carpet. Paired with a perfectly applied matte red lip, a pretty flush, and her fringed Gucci dress, this is a bold yet super pretty look for the singer.
Margot Robbie
The new lowlights and long, face framing fringe is a winning look for the Chanel-clad Margot Robbie. Coupled with her tonal, natural makeup, the actress has stepped up her beauty cred yet another notch with this look.
Zendaya
Zendeya’s custom Valentino cut-out yellow gown is perfectly off-set with low-key peachy toned makeup and heavenly long flowing mermaid hair. It’s the definition of cool girl beauty.
