Venice Film Festival 2018: The best beauty looks

Screen sirens

Sara Sampaio is a vision of beauty in a deep side part, a stouch of sparkle on the eyes and lush, red lipstick

Stacy Martin gives a masterclass in effortless French elegance with subtle platinum highlights and barely-there makeup

Natalie Portman sports her signature flush and pairs it with soft, smoky eyes, lashings of mascara and light curls

Canadian actress Sarah Gadon is the perfect icy blonde in a Grace Kelly-esque flip and a stunning raspberry lip

Tilda Swinton makes a statement with her aggressive minimalism. Just a slick of red lipstick enlivens an otherwise bare face

Izabel Goulard is causing serious hair envy with bouncy, honeyed locks and bronzed skin

Claire Foy is cool and understated with a slicked back, short 'do and a flick of liner

A simple stroke of azure eyeliner is all you need to make your eyes pop, as demonstrated by model Barbara Palvin (extra effective if you happen to be blue-eyed)

Proving a scarlet lip is de rigueur for the red carpet, Chinese actress Elaine Zhong flashes a perfectly sculpted statement pout

Cate Blanchett does ice princess to a T with frosty, pearlescent shadow and a textured bob

Dakota Johnson does a modern smokey eye in a warm burgundy that complements her skin tone

Bianca Balti's flawless complexion is the perfect balance of bronzy and dewy, with that lit-from-within flush

With her lush lashes, glossy pout, and refined bone structure, model and actress Bruna Marquezine is the next Brazilian beauty to follow

Model Greta Ferro brings back the '80s with a to die-for curly shag

Looking editorial AF, English actress Mia Goth works a starkly austere look with her barely-there brows and matte scarlet lips

Up-and-coming Japanese model Hikari Mori is a masterclass in the no makeup makeup look

Jury member Naomi Watts makes age a number with her fresh, glowing skin and beachy hair

Sara Sampaio rocks a half ponytail that's part sleek and part flirty

Italian rising star Matilda de Angelis is the picture of fresh-faced beauty with her smattering of freckles and textured brows

We'd like to give a standing ovation to Lady Gaga's makeup artist for those ultra-HD cheekbones

The 75th Venice Film Festival is underway, and we’re scouting the celebrities acing the red carpet with the most award-worthy beauty looks

When in Venice for the 75th edition of the world's oldest film festival, it seems the repertoire of old-school silver screen sirens is the order of the day. Just take a gander at Lady Gaga in her jaw-dropping Valentino gown when she took to the red carpet for her rousing turn in A Star is Born. The hair and makeup department seemed to have gotten the memo too, working the classic formula of flawless skin — bronzed and strobed to perfection, of course — meets bold red lips or a good smoky eye. To see the standout stars getting our vote for best beauty looks, click through the gallery above.
