The BAFTAs are upon us as we (frantically) type. The best of British - and the whole world, for that matter, are out in force to celebrate their screen achievements over the past year. Our eyes are on two things: dresses and makeup. Okay, three things, because Eddie Redmayne is also making an appearance.
We’ll be bringing you our favourite beauty looks as they sashay down the red carpet - we’re predicting some lust-worthy lobs, glowing complexions and enviably elegant eye makeup. The cream of the crop will make it into our gallery for your clicking pleasure...
BAFTAs Beauty
1 of 16Sarah Jane Crawford
Deep, Hollywood style waves are a great compliment to Sarah Jane’s glossy nude lip - it keeps it very British and fresh.
2 of 16MyAnna Buring
A navy eye might seem bold on paper, but just going for lashings of mascara rather than a full-on smokey look stops it being too 80s.
3 of 16Hayley Atwell
Flying the flag for redheads everywhere, Hayley looks resplendent with sharp sculpted cheekbones and a soft glow.
4 of 16Charlotte Riley
We can practically see our reflection in the mirror-like shine of Charlotte’s hair - we’ve heard a rumour she had a glossing treatment at London salon, FOUR, the day before...
5 of 16Laura Haddock
Looking princess-like with an elegant, scraped ‘back do and glowing skin.
6 of 16Holliday Grainger
We’re liking this nod to the 40s with her cute hairstyle - and what elegant brows she has!
7 of 16Alice Eve
An updo and a scarlet lip are a classic combination, but the mussed-up texture gives Alice an edge.
8 of 16Lea Seydoux
Hello, screen siren! That red lip is a bold choice with her canary yellow frock but Lea pulls it off expertly.
9 of 16Dianna Agron
We love Dianna’s bumped-up, mini-quiff - it adds a rockabilly vibe to her look.
10 of 16Amy Adams
Sleeker-than-sleek locks give Amy a polished finish.
11 of 16Gugu Mbatha-Raw
The prettiest pink lip makes Gugu the belle of the ball.
12 of 16Keira Knightley
Glossy waves and soft contouring gives Keira a totally dreamy look.
13 of 16Rosamund Pike
Our English Rose can do no wrong - look at that artfully tousled bob.
14 of 16Reese Witherspoon
Woah, mama. Reese’s blonde hair looks voluminous but still soft and understated, and we’re so into her peachy glow. Top marks.
15 of 16Julianne Moore
Glossy, glamorous curls and a natural, glowing complexion makes for a show-stopping look.
16 of 16Felicity Jones
Felicity’s sticking to her trademark updo - hey, if it ain’t broke. Also into the peachy tone bringing out her striking cheekbones.
The heavens have been kind to us in that the A-Listers aren’t being doused in a very British downpour yet, which hopefully means the stars will hang around for long enough for us to get a truly 360 look at every inch of their hair and makeup. Plus, if you’ve been sitting in a chair at The Savoy all day being primped and preened, the last thing you want is a full sprinkling of H20 all over your ‘do.
Already we heart Rosamund Pike’s softly waved bob and radiant skin, as well as presenter Sarah Jane Crawford’s Grecian look - what punctual ladies they are. We’re hoping for a stonking look from Ms Sienna Miller, who’s become something of a beauty crush again for us of late with her rock-chic bob and sexy, smokey makeup. Oh, and Keira Knightley who’s definitely going to score a hat-trick of ace award show beauty with another delicate and romantic look. Stay tuned for more...
