What were the top beauty trends at the Oscars 2017?

The six standout trends were side-parted hair, natural-looking lips, iridescent eyes, loose curls, wearing colours that complement your skin's undertones, and the classic red lip. Notably, most were looks that are easy to recreate at home.

How do you achieve iridescent eyes like the Oscars celebrities?

Hailee Steinfeld, Taraji P. Henson and Olivia Culpo led this trend with shimmering eyeshadow in silver, purple or warm golden brown tones. The key is choosing one iridescent shade and letting the shimmer do the work.

Why does wearing the right colour matter for your complexion?

Dressing in shades that complement your skin's undertones, whether cool, warm or neutral, allows your skin to glow rather than appear washed out. Chrissy Teigen is cited as an example, her warm undertones illuminated by her gold gown.

How do you style a side part like the Oscars celebrities?

An intentional side part draws attention to central facial features like the eyes and lips, adding a subtle sensuality to any look. Emma Roberts, Karlie Kloss and Emma Stone all wore this effortless style on the 2017 red carpet.

Red Carpet Beauty Worth Copying

The Oscars' red carpet is always a spectacle of the latest trends in beauty. This year, stars shined in a range of timeless looks and modern beauty accents that partnered with their fashion-forward gowns. Surprisingly, the most popular beauty trends were those that us little guys can actually pull them off.

The Effortless Side Part

Side parted hair: An ample amount of A-listers swept their locks to the side. An intentional side part is an easy way to spice up your look. Once hair is parted to the side, it draws attention to the central facial features like the eyes and lips bringing a subtle sensuality to any look. Emma Roberts, Karlie Kloss and Emma Stone are perfect examples of why this trend is so attractive.

Natural Lips and Iridescent Eyes

Natural-Looking Lips: Accentuating natural lip colour is a sly way of accomplishing the effortless beauty look this season. Natural looking lips are quick and easy to attain and help to highlight the eyes.

Loose Curls and Colour Confidence

4. Loose curls: Soft curls indicate classic femininity and elegant style. The timeless look is simple and goes well with just about any outfit, not just couture gowns. Brie Larson, Leslie Mann, Kirsten Dunst indulged in this beauty trend.

"If @brielarson's gown was a Venn diagram, it would live in the overlap between "completely classic" and "totally modern." Her velvet custom @oscardelarenta gown was designed by Creative Directors Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, and its elegant, architectural, and just looks like heaven on the red carpet. Such a win for the @oscardelarenta team, on every level?"- Co-Founder @hillarykerr on her pick for best dressed tonight #Oscars2017

Wearing The Right Colour: Figuring out the undertones in your skin is important before deciding what to wear. Whether they have cool, warm or neutral undertones, many stars dressed in colours that complimented their complexions. This allowed their skin to glow rather than looking washed out. Chrissy Teigen’s warm undertones were illuminated by her Zuhair Murad gown.
