The beauty game at the 68th edition of The Cannes Film Festival was as strong as the sartorial choices—the red carpet was flooded with pleasantly surprising makeovers, trend-setting hairstyles and beautiful summer colours.
This Girl is on Fire: Katrina Kaif
For starters, Katrina Kaif's astonishing burgundy hair had the world swooning over her refreshing makeover—the newly turned redhead exuded dark glamour on day one in her Oscar de la Renta gown and she followed it up by pairing her flaming mane with a red Elie Saab on day two. Talk about being 'red' carpet ready. This can only mean that the remaining Bollywood L'Oreal ambassadors—Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Sonam Kapoor—also expected at Cannes this year, have exciting looks in store too.
Making Waves: Sonam Kapoor
Sonam Kapoor matched her floor-sweeping Ralph and Russo gown with big bombshell waves, falling softly on one side. Just like her voluminous tresses, her make-up was ultra glam too--smooth skin, metallic cat-eye and a crimson pout.
Red Hot: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
Before she walked the red carpet, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan attended the Variety celebration of UN Women at Cannes in a bold red pucker, clean face and a glossy winged eye. Her big entry saw her swimming in experimental waters as she took to metallic green eyes and glossy burgundy lips to go with her Elie Saab gown.
Trendsetters at Cannes
Lupita Nyong'o will remain a sight to remember in her glossy orchid lips and her massive, elegant top knot, courtesy hairstylist Vernon François, which, rumour has it, has been given its own name: the fronut.
The bun really was the ultimate choice for many others. Sienna Miller showed us that a bobhead can do an updo if she wants to, while Doutzen Kroes proved that messy can be really sexy. What more, model Tanya Dziahileva's curled ponytail needs to be on your DIY hairstyle list this summer—it's soft, it's fun and it takes the mundane right out of ponytail.
As we continue to spot celebrities under our radar, here's looking at the best beauty moments at Cannes 2015 so far.
