Best Oscar Look: Angelina Jolie
She may not have uttered a word to Ryan Seacrest, but Angelina Jolie's message was loud and clear: No one was going to throw off her A game. Angie followed her usual red carpet M.O.: A simple but elegant black gown, femme fatale eye makeup, and Brad Pitt on her arm.
Her makeup artist Mary Burton, feeling the heat of the occasion, decided to step up the drama ever so slightly by stretching Jolie’s trademark cat’s-eye liner a smidge further than usual, and adding a touch underneath the lower lash line, “like a sideways V,” she says. The heavier eye makeup made a statement, but didn't look overdone, probably because it was balanced out by those emerald boulders hanging from her ears. (Gorgeous.)
Holy lashes. Burton finished the look by applying several coats of LancĂ´me Oscillation Mascara ($34), topped with YSL Volume Effet Faux Cils ($28.50). Lips were simple, glossed, cheeks dusted with a trace of (honestly, invisible) powder blush.
“I rarely ever put blush or bronzer on her skin,” says Burton. “Anything else is too much for her.”
