Olivia Wilde’s career trajectory is nothing short of inspiring, with her evolution from an actress to a successful producer and director. Known for her exotic beauty, Wilde recently wowed audiences with a jaw-dropping makeup look that combined glam with casual elegance, further proving her star power.
Attending the Academy Women’s Luncheon hosted by Chanel in collaboration with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Wilde stepped out in a casual yet chic Chanel ensemble. She paired a loose Chanel sweater with black wool trousers, accessorizing with fine jewelry from the brand. However, it was her makeup and hairstyle that truly elevated the look to perfection.
Hairstylist Clayton Hawkins gave Wilde a holiday-inspired updo, creating volume and framing her face with curls that were both effortless and elegant. But the makeup, courtesy of artist Jo Baker, was the real showstopper. Baker’s “Parallelogram Peepers” look took a creative spin on the classic winged eyeliner, inspired by trigonometry and angles to create a unique, hypnotizing effect. Instead of the typical elongated wing, Baker used a soft black pencil to blend the edges for a smokier, more diffused finish. She also applied the same color along the upper lash line and lower lash to connect the wing for a dramatic, cohesive look.
The rest of the makeup featured neutral tones, including light browns to soften the bold eyeliner. Baker finished the look with her brand’s Tarantulash Mascara and Chanel Beauty’s Rouge Coco Flash in the shade “Boy,” which was confirmed in a comment exchange with a fan.
Fans were quick to praise the makeup, with one calling Baker the “most creative makeup artist,” and others referring to the look as “glamgasmic.” The inspiration behind the makeup even had fans commenting on how math might be intimidating, but this look was anything but.
Wilde’s timeless beauty, paired with the genius of her glam team, proves that with the right combination, you can truly create magic—making Wilde’s latest appearance an unforgettable 10 out of 10.
