If awards season is all about endurance, the red carpet at Vanity Fair’s Oscar Party is the perfect moment to finally let loose. After months of waiting, the newly minted Oscar winners are ready to enjoy a round of congratulatory toasts. The beauty looks were surprisingly wearable, the type of makeup that looks more at home as it settles in over a night of partying, and guests stopped by the L’Oréal Paris touch-up station before they walked the carpet.
So it’s no surprise that Sunday night’s standout faces emphasized freshness and finding your light. Glowing skin, flushed cheeks, and subtle sculpting were the key trends, like Cara Delevingne’s subtle pigments or Chase Infiniti’s glossy nude lip. A few bold lips spiced up the carpet—see Odessa A’zion and her cherry cola liner or Iris Apatow and Alison Brie’s just-bitten matte pouts.
Simone Ashley and Bella Hadid both showed the power of carrying the high-wattage shimmer onto the shoulders, while Heidi Klum and Quinta Brunson proved that a classic smokey eye never goes out of style.
