Adriana Lima is so flawless she looks like a wax statue (in the best possible way). This is how you do a dynamic beauty look using just flesh tones

Ruby Rose's luminous skin, tousled crop and on fleek brows are beauty goals

Lea Seydoux is a modern vamp in a bright, red lip and a fresh blonde bob

Kristen Stewart goes all out with intense smoky eyes that have a hint of turquoise sparkle and a cooler-than-cool reverse quiff

Olga Kurylenko's sleek centre part and soft, pink lips are prettily understated

Vietnamese actress and model Ly Nha Ky's elegant updo and touch of sparkle on the eyes was glamorously restrained

We adore the soft waves on Russian model Valery Kaufman that are effortless while being red carpet appropriate

Russian model Lara Lieto (and paramour of Adrien Brody) is a vision in shimmery rust eyeshadow tones that bring out her stunning, hazel eyes

Liu Wen is a breath of fresh air in a casual bob, luminous skin and her signature wine-stained lips

There are so many elements of actress Astrid Berges-Frisbey's look that we adore: The baby bangs, baby fresh skin, and the flick of maroon eyeliner

We are loving model Daphne Groeneveld's super relaxed beauty. This is how you do a bare face and soft braids with style

Sofia Boutella is a fresh-faced dream at Cannes, and we're especially digging her short bangs and new blonde colour

All hail the beauteous Aishwarya Rai who dons a bold tangerine pout and glitter-flecked eyes with serious aplomb

Alessandra Ambrosio is a glamazon for hire, and though her updo, makeup and necklace combo is slightly matriarchal, she still makes it work

Chinese model Ming Xi's subtle liner and deep side part is an easy-to-wear look we're copping for our next evening out

Marion Cottilard is a Cannes veteran and her chicly cute twisted updo and inky liner looks at home on the red carpet

Bella Hadid lets loose with undone waves and subtle contouring that brings out her natural beauty

Lupita Nyongo'o always brings her best hair game. Her voluminous 'do and reverse banana eye liner is a fun look that she pulls off

Laura Harrier is sleek and gorgeous in finger waves and silver shadow accented with a neat cat eye flick

Chinese singer Li Yuchun, aka Chris Lee, is effortlessly cool girl with her dusty periwinkle bob. We're so bringing this shade to our colourist

As leader of the Cannes jury panel, Cate Blanchett reigns supreme with a soft, classic look using natural tones

Fellow jury member Ava DuVernay not only rocks dreads styled into a topknot and braids, she defines her eyes with electric teal eyeliner

Is it just us or does model and actress Xenia Tchoumitcheva remind you of Princess Leia? Loving her braided twin buns and the reverse liner look

Though it's her first Cannes, Kiko Mizuhara nails it with a raspberry-coloured pout and softly smokey eyes with a subtle duochrome shimmer

British model and designer Leomie Anderson makes flawless skin and a sharply winged, midnight blue eyeshadow look oh-so-good

Proving she comes from that enviable French ja ne sais quoi stock, Louise Bourgoin is effortlessly chic with natural freckled skin and understated makeup

Making waves with Rafiki, Kenya's first LGBT film, Samantha Mugatsia makes an equally worthy beauty entrance wearing a pop of sky blue liner

You have to hand it to Penelope Cruz; her signature kohl-rimmed eyes, voluminous waves and soft pink lips are never passé

With makeup artist Beau Nelson wielding Chanel Beauty for smokey eyes with a touch of glitter, red carpet regular and jury member Kristen Stewart's got this
