Jennifer Lawrence has long perfected a quietly assured, sophisticated sense of style. Whether on the streets of New York or on the red carpet for a premiere, trust that you’ll see her in elegant silhouettes and louche tailoring via The Row and Dior. She’s come to match her sartorial sensibilities with her glam.
Photographed yesterday (November 1) at the New York premiere of Die My Love, Lawrence wore a perfectly lined scarlet red lip. Her makeup, by Georgie Eisdell, centered on the witchy red tone, with a flawless base and soft bronze cheek contour, a delicate smoky brown eye and black mascara. Lawrence’s blonde hair, by Gregory Russell, was swept into a sleek side parting and kept long down her back, straight, and glossy.
Eisdell, Lawrence’s go-to makeup artist and who counts clients including Anya Taylor-Joy and Dakota Johnson, is known for creating timeless visages: soft and blurred lips, radiant complexions, diaphanous smoky eyes.
The vampy glam—propeled by a makeup bag full of Dior Beauty—was in a bewitching rhythm with her sculptural black Dior gown, a gold, platinum, enamel, and diamond ‘Hot Dog’ necklace by David Webb, and the perfect pair of Manolo Blahnik black pumps with a delicate cold ankle chain.
Over the years, the Jennifer Lawrence glam team has established some polished beauty routine signatures: her Birkin bangs, a soft eyeliner flick, and when requiring max impact, a statement red lip. It’s a classic beauty move that makes sense for a star who favors understated style with elevated details. On some of her earliest red carpet appearances (think Hunger Games era) Lawrence paired more juicy red lips with lashings of mascara and punky eyeshadow combos to match a then-more edgy style. A face of Dior Beauty’s Addict lipstick since 2015, Lawrence has had over a decade to play with the house’s lippie range, testing out fawn pinks, gothic plums, and brick reds.
As she’s matured into her contemporary, elegant sense of style—growing out her pixie cut and letting down the top knots, smudging less eyeliner, and finding The Row—she’s come to roll out a sumptuous red lip against a more parred back, timeless visage.

This evening’s lip in question errs on the witchier shade of reds for Lawrence, veering into Cabernet territory, moisture sealed in with a touch of hydrating gloss. Against her dramatic Dior gown and the screening of her already Oscar-rumored movie, Jennifer Lawrence knows the true power of the expertly employed red lip.
