Lily Gladstone, fresh off the Met Gala carpet, is now in the South of France for the 77th annual Cannes Film Festival. For the event’s opening night, her hairstylist Marc Mena created a “South of France old Hollywood glamour” look, while her makeup artist Nick Barose kept her makeup soft and fresh with a touch of ’70s style to complement her dress. Mena had to adapt to the notoriously humid weather in Cannes by embracing the humidity and creating a look that it would only add to. He used a variety of products to prep Gladstone’s hair before styling it with a round brush and curling iron, finishing the look off with plenty of hairspray.
Barose focused on Gladstone’s eyes for her makeup look, using a gorgeous shimmery ivory eyeshadow pencil on her brow bone and a shimmery navy mascara to make her brown eyes pop. The contrast between the light ivory color and the deep sea blue mascara created a striking look without having to smoke out the eyes too much. The makeup look was designed to complement Gladstone’s overall aesthetic for the red carpet event, and both her hair and makeup worked together to create a cohesive and glamorous look for the occasion.
Gladstone’s role as a jury member at the Cannes Film Festival required her to be camera-ready and stylish for all of the events and red carpets she would be attending. With the help of her glam team, she was able to achieve a classic, elegant look that suited the South of France setting and the star-studded atmosphere of the festival. The attention to detail in both her hair and makeup shows the thought and effort that went into creating her red carpet look for the opening night of the festival.
The combination of the old Hollywood glamour inspiration for her hair and the ’70s touch for her makeup created a unique and timeless look for Gladstone at the Cannes Film Festival. The incorporation of Indigenous-owned beauty products added a personal and meaningful touch to her makeup look, reflecting her heritage and supporting underrepresented communities in the beauty industry. The overall effect was a stunning and sophisticated appearance that captured the essence of classic film glamour with a modern twist.
Gladstone’s experience at the Cannes Film Festival, from walking the red carpet to attending screenings and events, was a whirlwind of excitement and glamour. As a jury member, she played an important role in selecting and honoring the best films of the festival, showcasing her talent and expertise in the film industry. Her presence at the event brought attention to both her work as an actor and her impeccable style on the red carpet, solidifying her status as a rising star in Hollywood. Overall, her time at the Cannes Film Festival was a memorable and successful experience that showcased her beauty, talent, and sophistication on an international stage.
