Academy Award winner Zoe Saldaña’s 2025 Oscars look was anything but ordinary.
The Emilia Pérez actress, 46, looked unreal at the 97th annual Academy Awards — which took place at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 2 — thanks to celebrity facialist Lord Gavin and hairstylist Mara Roszak.
To get her dewy glow, Gavin used The Method by Augustinus Bader to prep Saldaña’s skin. After giving Saldaña the most radiant complexion, her makeup artist Vera Steimberg completed her look with Armani Beauty products.
Hairstylist Mara Roszak exclusively broke her look down to Us Weekly, sharing, “Zoe’s soft flowing waves were inspired by the movement in her gorgeous YSL custom gown.” Saldaña’s brunette hair was parted down the middle and styled in soft curls, which she tossed over her shoulders.

Roszak told Us she created the look by first “applying the RŌZ Root Lift Spray to roots and Air Thickening Spray to damp mid lengths and ends, with one pump of RŌZ Santa Lucia Styling Oil on ends for heat protection.” She then blew out Saldaña’s mane with the Dyson Supersonic before pinning her locks in curls.
To set the look in place, Roszak told Us she “spritzed a thin layer of RŌZ Air Thickening Spray over the top and used the Dyson Supersonic with the Diffuser attachment to gently seal in the style and hold.”
She added, “Once the pin curls were set, I carefully removed pins and gently brushed the hair out. Then I added a couple rows of The Covet & Mane Coveted Tape Extensions in Dubai and Portofino to add fullness.”
Roszak finished Saldaña’s hairdo with “one pump of RŌZ Santa Lucia Styling Oil,” which she ran through the actress’ tresses “to add shine and a subtle, piecey texture.”

Saldaña teamed her ethereal glam with a maroon gown, featuring an empire waist, a tiered pleated skirt and a studded sheer top. She added the perfect amount of sparkle to her look with a diamond necklace and stud earrings.
This year, Saldaña won the award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her part as Rita Mora Castro in Emilia Pérez, which also starred Selena Gomez.
Saldaña has already been recognized for her part. Earlier this month, she took home the trophy for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role at the 2025 SAG Awards. In January, she won the award for Best Supporting Female Actor, Film, at the 2025 Golden Globes.
