We take a look at the best beauty looks from Cannes 2015

The stars are outshining themselves at this year's Cannes Film Festival, with windswept locks, relaxed curls tumbling around gently bronzed complexions and slick up-dos – beauty was in abundance.

Even among the myriad of camera flashes, Charlize Theron dazzled in a sunshine Dior gown and Chopard diamond earrings. Followed by an everlasting train and partner Sean Penn, the Mad Max: Fury Road actress tops our beauty charts with her lightly-bronzed complexion, pink tinted lip and single loose curl. 

The gentle spring look created by make-up artist Pati Dubroff uses the French fashion house’s lip colour and a swipe of Diorshow mascara, alongside beauty-brand staples Charlotte Tilbury and Smashbox products. Accessible beauty brands are a firm favourite this season, from Gigi Hadid’s Maybelline lip at the Met Gala to Julianne Moore’s purple pout at the Oscars created by blending two L’Oreal shades – recreating celebrity looks has never been easier.

Emma Stone’s wardrobe for Woody Allen's Irrational Man premiere included an Oscar de la Renta LBD and an elegant Christian Dior Couture gown - both complimenting the actress’ pale complexion and cropped red locks. The feminine ODLR dress layered with ruffles and sheer lace was teamed with a loose wavy up-do and a soft pink lip – a demure approach to beauty conquering Cannes. As Stone emerged wearing her second ensemble, the Dior Couture gown reminded us of a vintage bridal design. Alongside the star’s elegant middle-parted up-do and Audrey Hepburn brows, she was a vision of feminine radiance. 

Breaking the mold with a bold, red lip was the ever-stylish Sienna Miller. Dressed in a one-shouldered midnight blue Lavin gown at the impressive Cannes opener La Tête Haute premiere, the star set the beauty-bar high from the first day. Sienna’s contoured cheekbones and feline flicks were brought to life with a swipe of vibrant red lipstick – created by the beauty-guru Charlotte Tilbury - it’s no wonder we were envious of the flawless look.

With so many beautiful looks to choose from, we were overwhelmed with weightless tresses and barley-there lips – so take a visit to the South of France with some of the dazzling beauties from Cannes 2015. Here's some of the best looks from the film festival so far:
