As I'm writing this I have no idea who has won Best Actress or Best Picture (C'mon Argo!) at the 2013 Oscars but what I can say with certainty is who won the red carpet beauty awards (more about that on the next slide).

Overall, the trends were simple and safe, as they've been all award season long: loose waves, nude nails, and neutral makeup with the occasional red lip. As expected, Adele went for her signature cat eye, Sandra Bullock kept her hair extra sleek, and Ben Affleck opted not to shave his scruffy beard.

I'll admit, there were a few surprising missteps this year (sorry, Jennifer Aniston, but you're officially stuck in a hair rut, time to give up that simple blowout on the red carpet). But those slipups only meant that the gorgeous hair and makeup looks on the other actresses seemed that much more, well, flawless.

Ready to see if your favorites made the cut? Or did you skip watching the 2013 Academy Awards all together and need a quick cheat sheet? Either way, click on to see which stars earned top awards in our red carpet beauty categories.

Jennifer Lawrence has that old time classic beauty that hasn't been achieved in decades!

Zoe Saldana always knocks it out.

Loved Jessica Chastain's makeup! I only disagree with the hair looks. I think both Jennifer Lawrence and Naomi Watts could have done something less boring with their hair.

Charlize Theron looks fresh and young. Whoever does her makeup has great taste.
