Beauty Marks: The Best Beauty Looks of the Week
Just because it’s spring—and almost summer!—doesn’t mean you can’t embrace cool tones and a bit of sparkle. From Gillian Anderson to the runways of Dior resort 2027, see the best beauty looks of the week here.

Forget dewy minimalism — this week's beauty moment belongs to frost, shimmer, and a confident hand with color. According to Vogue, the red carpet and set circuit delivered a masterclass in cool-toned maximalism, with celebrities and their collaborators leaning hard into metallic highlights, glossy lids, and statement lips at a time when most people are reaching for beige blush and SPF lip balm.
At Cannes, Gillian Anderson arrived to promote her upcoming film Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma with a celestial-level highlight — the kind that reads as armor, not decoration — coordinated with the metallic silver detailing on her gown. Meanwhile, jury co-chair Demi Moore leaned into full drama: hairstylist Dimitris Giannetos delivered a sleek, high-impact look to pair with her water-like Grecian Gucci gown, while makeup artist Raoul Alejandre kept skin luminous rather than competing. Two different approaches to silver-screen glamour, both absolutely landing.
The Artists Behind the Looks
The names doing the actual work are worth knowing. Alexandra French is responsible for the Euphoria season three glow on Alexa Demie — a cool cream eye paired with a russet red lip that sounds contradictory and looks stunning. Global MUA for Christian Louboutin Morgane Martini constructed a two-toned, juicy lip alongside glossy eyes that belong in an art gallery. Allan Avendaño delivered the kind of poreless, suede-finish skin that makes you want to book a facial immediately. Ivan Núñez brought subversive Barbie glam — statement lashes included — and nail artist Natalie Minerva matched a Hollywood-cinematic-inspired collection with a scalloped French that somehow felt both nostalgic and completely now.
On the nail front, Jennifer Lopez's go-to, Tom Bachik, served a "peach champagne mani" that's precisely the energy spring evenings call for — warm enough to feel festive, subtle enough to not fight your outfit. Zara Larsson, committed maximalist, stayed on-brand with full-on sparkle. The throughline across all of it? A willingness to be seen — not just polished.
The real takeaway this week isn't a single product or trend, but a reminder that beauty at its best is a collaboration — and the artists executing these looks are just as responsible for the moment as the faces wearing them.
