From effortless red lips to minimal skin, the French have long been known for their laissez-faire approach to beauty. But at the southern edge of the country, celebrity attendees seize the opportunity to dial up the glam on the Cannes 2024 red carpet. Scroll through below for some of the most fetching hair, makeup and nail moments among the Cannes 2024 beauty looks.
Bella Hadid

Bella Hadid, unofficial queen of Cannes, made so many stunning appearances at the film festival, we lost count. To walk the red carpet on May 23, Hadid’s longtime MUA Nadia Tayeh created a look she called “soft classic glam” in an Instagram post. The model and fragrance founder was glowing in a subtle winged liner and taupe eyeshadow and nude matte lip. Meanwhile, hairstylist Bryce Scarlett swept Hadid’s dark brown hair into a sleek updo finished with cascading curls.

Oscar-winning actress Michelle Yeoh might have also won Cannes with this entire look, from her newly cropped fringe to the fringe-covered Bottega Veneta dress she wore on May 20. Zero notes!
Selena Gomez

It’s giving movie star, honey! Selena Gomez stepped onto the Cannes red carpet on May 20 looking every bit the starlet, from her deep side part and Hollywood waves to her eye-catching diamonds. MUA Hung Vanngo created a soft glam makeup look with a subtle pink eyeshadow, flirty lashes and a matte petal pink pout that was over-lined just so. Celebrity nail artist Tom Bachik painted the Rare Beauty founder’s tips red to match her Giambattista Valli rosette-covered dress using Essie’s Rock the Runway.
Naomi Campbell
In a full circle fashion moment, Naomi Campbell revived an archival Chanel Fall 1996 look she originally wore nearly 30 years prior, and her statement glam was pitch perfect for this iconic reveal.
Her makeup, credited on Instagram to pro MUA Angloma, was warm and bronze-y, with a subtle flick of eyeliner, curled lashes and a nude pink lip. For hair, Rio Sreedharan formed ethereal curls for the supermodel with a defined centre part and va-va voom volume.
Lily Gladstone

Attending the screening of The Second Act, Lily Gladstone wowed us with her glossy hair and glass skin. The Killers of the Flower Moon actress went with a deep side part and dramatic waves inspired by “South of France old Hollywood glamour,” her hairstylist, Marc Mena, told Vogue.
As for makeup, Nick Barose created a major eye look and locked everything in with Cheekbone Beauty’s Moon Dust Mattifying Power. The beauty notes on Gladstone’s glam? “Fresh glowing skin with sparkly ’70s eyes and glossy lips,” Barose writes on Instagram.
Taylor Hill
Former Victoria’s Secret Angel Taylor Hill walked the Cannes red carpet sporting a brunette crop that was sculpted into a wavy and wet-looking hairdo perfect for the French Riviera setting.
Her brown brows were boldly filled in and complemented her black cat-eye liner and doll-like lash look. Pink blush accentuated the model’s cheeks, and a mauve liner contoured the edges of her lips, while the centre remained a soft nude shade.
Sabrina Elba

At the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga screening, Sabrina Elba showed off a flawless take on Cannes beauty. Makeup artist Kelly McClain used Dior Beauty products to achieve this look, opting for sparkling lids, peach cheeks and a subtle kiss of pink colour on her lips.
London hairstylist @papachicistyle was responsible for Elba’s chic side-parted hairdo with retro, flipped-up ends, citing “super glossy undone hair” as the vision in the caption of an Instagram post. Mission accomplished.
Anya Taylor-Joy
Starting off the 2024 Cannes Film Festival with a striking bang, Anya Taylor-Joy’s first red carpet beauty look was the epitome of movie star chic. On May 15, the Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga actress floated along the Cannes carpet wearing an elegant chignon crafted by hairstylist Gregory Russell and timeless makeup by Georgie Eisdell using Dior Beauty. Drawing on classic French beauty codes, Eisdell painted on perfect red lips — courtesy of Dior’s Rouge “#999” velvet lipstick — and elevated the look with sharp-winger eyeliner, glittery gold lids and shimmery skin.
For her next glam moment the following day, Taylor-Joy opted for a sultry smokey eye, berry pink lip and matte skin. Peeking out from a beaded headpiece, the actress’s butter blonde hair hung long past her shoulders in loose waves. And upon close inspection, her neutral, ultra-long almond nails featured the daintiest little rhinestone detail for a little extra panache.
