Whenever I do these “BEST OF” posts regarding red carpet makeup, I find I seem to gravitate towards the same types of looks – bold lips, smokey eyes, old Hollywood wavy hair!! Oh well, at least I’m consistent right?? Here are my picks for the most show stopping makeup looks from Sunday night with product suggestions on how to copy that look. Plus the one celeb that usually nails it, but really disappointed me this time…womp womp…
Jennifer just looks fan-freaking-tasctic!! Not overdone at all, just simply beautiful. Her eye makeup is a look I go for quite often, the subtle smokey golden browns. And my go-to for this look is the original Urban Decay Naked palette which contains the perfect matte tan browns and shimmery golds shades to recreate Jennifer’s eyes. Can I please get a pair of those emerald green earrings to go too please??

I don’t know if this model (and daughter of RHOBH Yolanda Foster) went to the actual Oscars, but she did attend the Vanity Fair after party and looked uh-mazing. All neutral makeup is hard to pull off without looking super blah, but she did this color palette right. With just the right amount of highlighting on the eyes and skin, tons of lashes (I would copy with Esqido lashes in “Oh So Sweet”, and the most perfect nude lip (copy with L’Oreal Le Gloss in “Nude Illusion”, she looks ethereal. No need for fussy hair for this gal, the slicked back ponytail was the perfect addition to show off her gorgeous face.

I don’t know the first thing about hair or even how to get this look but I do know it is super fab!! Emma is just the cutest, chicest, and a trendsetter every time on the red carpet. If someone knows how I could get this look, feel free to school me in the comments below. I would love that. So this is just me professing my love for her hair here. Oh, and the coral lip is pretty awesome.

I’m usually J’Lo’s biggest beauty fan. I heart her. Her dress was exquisite (here) but her makeup was not on point this time. The rose gold eye shadow shaded around her eyes (should’ve kept it just on the upper lids) along with that bubble gum pink lipstick made her look dare I say, sickly?? It just didn’t work for me. Her face is still ridiculously gorgeous though.
