The Oscar nominations were announced today to a flurry of Internet chatter (Jennifer Aniston was robbed! What about Selma?). One thing that can be universally agreed upon, however, is that the Best Actress nominees have already won us over on the red carpet this year with powerful signature beauty looks as distinguished as their performances.
Take Bond Girl turned Gone Girl star who masterfully walks the line between ladylike and edgy with a penchant for pretty nude makeup, a sleekly styled bob—and the occasional flash of her fearless undercut—while The Theory of Everything contender Felicity Jones went from fresh-faced ingénue to a sophisticated force to be reckoned with both on and off the silver screen.
But it’s not just Academy Award first-timers who’ve been stealing the spotlight. In contrast to her practically barefaced performance in Reese Witherspoon regularly pays tribute to Old Hollywood glamour—glossy, side-swept curls, neatly painted crimson lips, and the occasional smoky eye. With her impossibly radiant skin and fine-boned features—to say nothing of her covetable red mane—Still Alice front-runner Julianne Moore hasn’t lost an ounce of appeal since her first Oscar nod for Boogie Nights almost 20 years ago. And with her thoughtfully polished take on Parisian elegance, this year’s surprise nominee, (Two Days, One Night) reminds us that even the most classic sensibility can have spectacular range.
Here, a look at the 2015 Best Actress contenders’ best beauty looks.
