Why Camila Morrone Is a Breakout Beauty Star to Watch

Camila Morrone is having a moment—and it appears she has the spotlight-ready beauty moves to match. Over the past few months, the 22-year-old actress has seen plenty of opportunities to hit the red carpet while promoting her new film, Mickey and the Bear, in which she stars as a Montana teenager who serves as a caretaker for her veteran father. But counter to character Mickey, who favors air-dried hair, scrunchied topknots, and a make-up free face, Morrone’s own above-neck sensibilities are a study in sophistication.

Since the start of November, the model-turned-actress has displayed a penchant for subdued glamour, favoring nude lips and center-parted lengths left to fall in easy waves. But the restraint is made stronger when you consider Morrone’s stylized punctuations. Consider, for example, the noir Merlot lip liberally painted for a screening of Mickey at the Film Independent Screening Room in L.A., the pout paired with a straight blowout for a medley of romance and modernity. Updos skew romantic as well, midi-ponytails worn finger-raked and softened by loosened, face-framing sections; half-up styles pulling focus to old-world earrings and petal pink pouts. And just last night, Morrone brought the aesthetic circuit full-circle, her barely-there nude lip accompanied by a no-makeup makeup look—likely as close as her on-screen counterpart’s approach as she’s likely to get. Here, six recent moments that prove Morrone is a rising star in the beauty realm as well.
