The Most Stunning Make Up Trends From Cannes 2019
Just as we’re getting over the straight-up sensational beauty looks that were served to us on a bubblegum pink carpet, aka the Met Gala, in comes Cannes Film Festival. The annual film festival is the one week of the year when ALL the A-Listers flock to the south of France, and while they dine on rosé, oysters, and culture, we’re left drooling over their beauty looks… And 2019 didn’t disappoint!
Although, if there’s one beauty lesson we’ve learned from the red carpet at Cannes, it’s that Hollywood glamour is making a serious comeback. The undeniable trends from this year are a classic red lip, sexy winged liner, and smokey eyes, and we love that these looks are so wearable! Check out all our fave Cannes beauty looks…

We love this neutral twist on a classic smokey eye. The warm brown and copper hues make Priyanka’s eye pop, while the elongated wing brings the drama.
Pro tip: Pati Dubroff (Priyanka’s MUA) told us: “When I’m doing a dramatic eye, even one that has a graphic feel, I always keep the edges softly diffused. I find that very hard edges can be too severe. I also always like to keep some “alive” quality – like a pop of sheen (it can be a clear glow or even glitter) to keep the lid open and bring light to the eye area.”
Selena Gomez

Like we said; old Hollywood glamour is in and Selena appreciates that. Everything about this look is executed to perfection; from her killer brows to the power lip, to the angle of the liner. To create the look, her go-to makeup artist Hung Vanngo used Marc Jacobs Lê Marc Lip Crème in Oh! Miley, $32, on the lips, as well as Magic Marc’er Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Blacquer, $30.

We’re dying over this soft, sexy glam look. The subtle pink hues keep the brown smokey eye really natural. Not to mention that glow…
Pro tip: Bella’s MUA Hung Vanngo, who created this killer look, said that his “Best and only makeup trick is mixing powder eyeshadow with Aquaphor to create a cream shadow. You can also do this with a powder blush to create a cream blush.”

Victoria Secret Model Cindy Bruna highlights that a smokey eye doesn’t have to be edgy; if you trade in the harsh edges with soft brown tones it can be super feminine and girly.
Pro eyeshadow tip: To create an even base, pack the eyeshadow onto the eye by gently pressing the powder into the lid. Once the color has been applied, blend it out using back and forth motions (think windshield wipers).
