Red carpet regular Angelina Jolie proved why she's been voted Sexiest Woman Alive on numerous occasions as she hit the Kodak Theatre for the Oscars. Proving that you don't need much (aside from a pillowy pout) to wow, Ange wore a brown smoky eye, lashes on the outer corner of her eye and coral-red gloss, whilst her hair was sporting some beautiful body and bounce. What do you think, did Angie score another win on the red carpet?

2012 Oscars: Cameron Diaz

Cameron Diaz clearly got the memo that gold and black was the colour combo of the evening.

Cameron Diaz clearly got the memo that gold and black was the colour combo of the evening. The actress picked both colours for her eye look, forgoing a sparkly shadow in favour of a cream-based metallic gold. Adding definition to the look, Cam's makeup artist water-lined her eyes in black and painted the lip pink. Her hair was parted roughly off-centre, but not perfectly, to tie in with the natural-looking texture that ran throughout the style. Thoughts on the look?

2012 Oscars: Emma Stone

Much has been made of her gown being similar to Nicole Kidman's Balenciaga Oscars frock from 2007, but we're here to talk hair and makeup.

Much has been made of her gown being similar to Nicole Kidman's Balenciaga Oscars frock from 2007, but we're here to talk hair and makeup. Picking subtle colours, perhaps to let her dress do all the talking, Emma Stone wore a sparkling light lilac eyeshadow that had a touch of iridescence to it, which was topped off with winged liner and a pink lip tint. Hair-wise, Emma's strands were parted off-centred and then styled into a braided bun. What do you think?

2012 Oscars: Natalie Portman

Natalie Portman has gone against the grain and worn her hair down for the Oscars.

Natalie Portman has gone against the grain and worn her hair down for the Oscars. Continuing the retro theme — her gown is vintage Christian Dior — her hair has been deep-parted with the fringe styled into a singular finger wave. The makeup is signature Natalie: brown shadow, liner and a pink lip. All by Dior no doubt. What do you make of her Oscars hair and makeup look?

2012 Oscars: Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez opted for a big doughnut-style bun on the Oscars red carpet.

Jennifer Lopez opted for a big doughnut-style bun on the Oscars red carpet. It's her got-to up 'do of choice and today she's paired it with a matte golden-brown eye and shimmering peach gloss. It's a pretty look, but not as show-stopping as it could've been. How do you rate it?

2012 Oscars: Octavia Spencer

Best Supporting Actress nominee Octavia Spencer went for a classic hair and makeup pairing on the red carpet.

Best Supporting Actress nominee Octavia Spencer went for a classic hair and makeup pairing on the red carpet. The Help star wore a brown-toned smoky eye which was teamed with a side-styled up 'do. Octavia's hair had an injection of volume which gave a retro feel to the style. With her white-coloured gown she could've gone for some more colour in her makeup palette, but what do you think. Is it a winning look for you today?

2012 Oscars: Rooney Mara

Rooney Mara is an actress who knows what she wants. Whilst she's made the move from black to white in the frock stakes, her red carpet beauty look has strayed to far from her signature style: blunt bangs, sleek looped ponytail, ivory complexion, natural-looking lashes and a rust-toned red lip. Do you like the look or do you wish she'd switch things up more?

2012 Oscars: Michelle Williams

Finally! The lady we've all been waiting for.

Finally! The lady we've all been waiting for. And boy, was she worth the wait. You seriously need to check out her gown as it's shaping up to be our favourite frock of the night. But back to the hair and makeup. Hair was kept soft and parted at the side, whilst makeup teamed an impressively flirty flutter with a pretty pink lip. Michelle's a red carpet pro and we always love her look, but are you taken with her Oscars beauty style or were you hoping for more?
