The Best Beauty Looks At Last Night’s BAFTAs

Now that we’ve digested the BAFTA winners along with the red carpet hits and misses, it’s time to hone in on the beauty efforts of those in attendance. Without a doubt, the most popular trend of the night was a strong red lip (see Dakota Johnson, Laura Haddock and Kate Winslet) while a select few stars – such as Saoirse Ronan, who we think reigned supreme in every sartorial regard last night – chose a paler pout and a smouldering smokey eye.?We’ve been giving props to Saoirse’s beauty routine a lot of late, and while she most often keeps things paired back, it’s nice to see her strike out with a bolder look, which makes her blue eyes positively pop.

Elsewhere, classic Hollywood glamour was the order of the night – Isla Fisher looked unbelievable – and if these stars are anything to go by, contouring is definitely on the way out.

A slightly more gothic edge also featured with the likes of Alicia Vikander choosing a darker, berry coloured lip and you can always rely on Rooney Mara to bring her ethereal A-game with those enviable gothic brows. Last but by no means least, can we take a moment to appreciate how genuinely beautiful Dame Maggie Smith looks? She’s 81 years of age. Her blow-dry is on point. Now, we’re off to practice our best Hollywood red lip and find out the secret to Dame Maggie’s youthful appearance.
