31 of the best ever makeup looks at the Oscars

As well as the excitement of finding out that year’s winners, we always look forward to the guaranteed gorgeous fashion and beauty looks at the Academy Awards. With this in mind, at woman&home we’ve been revisiting some of the best ever makeup looks at the Oscars from the red carpet archives.

Each year, Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre welcomes nominees and big names from the entertainment industries to see the winners announced. It’s a classic Hollywood red carpet situation, with glam squads getting the A-Listers’ hair and make-up ready for the red carpet – and the make-up inspiration is always exquisite.

To that end, we’ve collected together some of the best looks from ceremonies past to get you in the Oscars spirit. From Jennifer Lopez to Oprah Winfrey, these are some of our favourite make-up looks from both the main red carpet and after-party arrivals.
