I’ve got my best beauty looks from the 2014 Oscars last night! I don’t know about you but I get so excited for the Oscars primarily for the red carpet. I have to say though that last night’s show fell kinda flat when it comes to fashion. The hair & makeup however was great. Here are my top picks-

We’ll start with the clear cut winner from last night, Lupita Nyongo. Loved the glowy skin, coral lip & the headband.  I know a lot of people were kind of not sure about the headband, but it suited the look perfectly and made her look like an angel 🙂Next is my runner up, Kate Hudson. She always manages to look like she is beyond glowing, like lit-from-within glowing. The dress was amazing too.Speaking of a natural glow, we all know that part of the glow Olivia Wilde has is because she’s carrying that genetically blessed child in her belly, but I love how they combined a thicker winged out liner with an elegant updo and those big earrings. Gorgeous.Loved that Kerry Washington took a risk and did something different by first of all letting her hair down, looks great, and that vampy lip, so gorgeous.

Lastly I have to give homage to Maria Menounos hairstyle. Whoever did it, did an amazing job. Definitely a look I’ll try in the future.

Before I go I just want to congratulate Adruitha Lee and Robin Matthews, the makeup & hair team from the film Dallas Buyers Club. They won an Oscar for their work in the film, but what’s amazing about that is their budget for the entire film- $250. Un-freakin-believable. These are the kind of women I’m inspired by and respect.

What were your fav looks?
