Viola Davis
Viola Davis
Actress Viola Davis has a sophisticated style with a thickly lined cat eye and emerald green shadow to match her Vera Wang gown, and nude lips for a very clean, natural look that suits her natural, auburn hair.
Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez's sultry look features contoured cheeks, well-groomed brows and double wing-lined eyes. The dewy, glowing complexion was achieved by mixing L'Oreal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Makeup with a little La Mer The Reparative Body Lotion. Celebrity makeup artist Mary Phillips shares the details on how to get Jennifer's Oscars makeup look.
Octavia Spencer
Oscar Award-winning actress Octavia Spencer said that she hoped her Oscar win would inspire black actresses, especially since she is "not the typical Hollywood beauty." She'll inspire more than just black actresses. She's receiving kudos not only for her acting ability, but for her style as well as beauty. This may sound corny, but it radiates from within.
Octavia looked lovely at the Oscars. Her makeup was done by Valerie Noble.
The smoky eye takes a different twist with two shades of shadow giving the lids more of a two-toned look, and the lips are nude (Iman Luxury Shimer Gloss in Velvet). For more details on how Valerie achieved the look, read this interview with Essence.com.
Esperanza Spalding
The subtle, natural and bare look is great for Esperanza Spalding's sweet face, with thickly lined eyes, flirty lashes and pink lips on a smooth and clear complexion.

Sherri Shepherd
Sherri Shepherd's blindingly bright blue gown matches her energetic, fun personality. With her skin tone she can get away with the blue eyeshadow (as long as it's not overdone), full lashes, a blush that pops on the apples of the cheeks, and a deep shade of lipstick close to her natural skin color.
Paula Patton
For Paula Patton's look at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party makeup artist Fiona Stiles applied CoverGirl Queen Collection Natural Hue Liquid Makeup in Rich Sand and CoverGirl Queen Collection Natural Hue Concealer in Light where needed. She then applied CoverGirl & Olay Simply Ageless Sculpting Blush in Lush Berry on the apples of the cheeks using a dual fiber brush and set the makeup with CoverGirl Professional Loose Powder and a bit of CoverGirl Queen Collection Natural Hue Pressed Powder in Light Bronze.

The brows were filled with CG Brow & Eyemakers Pencil in Midnight Brown and brushed into place. For the eyes, she started with a primer on the lids to make sure that shadow adheres and stays in place and used a wash of CoverGirl Queen Collection Natural Hue Bronzer in Light Bronze and Brown Bronze from the lash line up towards the brow to add depth to the eyes. Next she lined the eyes with CG LineBlast 24HR Eyeliner in Enduring Black, putting black liner in the waterline top and bottom. Instead of rimming the eyes in black, to add more depth CG Queen Collection Vivid Impact Eyeliner in Truffle was used at the lashes, which achieves the effect of depth, but also gives the eyes a softer appearance. CG Queen Collection Natural Hue Bronzer in Brown Bronze was used over the liner on the inner corners of the eyes and CG Liquiline Blast Eyeliner in Black Fire was used at the outer corners to elongate the eye. Several strokes of CG Queen Collection Lash Fanatic Mascara in Black added drama to the look.
The mouth was lined with CG Queen Collection Lasting Lip Pencil in Rose to define the lips and also to assure long lasting color throughout the night and was topped with CG Queen Collection Lip Color in Penelope Pink. Fiona decided on a soft pink to let the eyes be the main focus of the look.

The makeup look at the Oscars had a focus on winged cat eyes and pink lips. Chinese actress Li Bingbing also had a lovely bare-faced look with groomed brows, nicely lined eyes, with a little shimmer on the lids, and of course, the popular pink lips.
Maya Rudolph's makeup artist Molly Stern kept the comedian's makeup simple, with peachy blush on the cheeks and pink lips using NARS Matte Velvet Pencil in Never Say Never and then Laura Mercier Lip Gloss in Bon Bon on top, neutral shadow on the eyelids and lightly lined eyes.
