The 2026 Cannes Film Festival is in full swing. Among those in attendance is Swedish actor and Vogue Scandinavia alum Frida Gustavsson, who stepped onto the red carpet in a dewy, fresh-faced makeup look. Below, discover a step-by-step breakdown of her sculpted glam, and the Charlotte Tilbury products behind it

Now that the 2026 Met Gala is in the rearview mirror, another hotly anticipated red carpet beckons: the 79th Cannes Film Festival. Among the stars who have flocked to the famed scarlet steps for this year’s edition is acclaimed Swedish actor Frida Gustavsson. The Vogue Scandinavia alum has been spending a lot of time in the French Riviera as of late: in March, it was announced that Gustavsson is one of the Scandinavian talents checking in to season four of White Lotus, whose filming is currently underway in the Côte d’Azur.

​For her Cannes red carpet appearance, Gustavsson tapped a trusted sartorial formula: a slinky, black strappy midi dress paired with one of this summer’s key shoe trends, a glossy, glove heels. She finished the sleek ensemble with a bouncy ‘90s blowout and glowy, fresh-faced glam. Gustavsson’s makeup look for the evening was dreamt up by the team at Charlotte Tilbury, who harnessed the British beauty giant’s best-selling products – as well as soon-to-launch newness – to create her subtle, sculpted glam.
