THEN & WOW

NICOLE KIDMAN

The women who look better now than ever

STARTING out, the actress is almost unrecognisable with a mass of curly red hair. The heavy fringe makes her face look rounder, while her pale skin appears washed out — with no definition offered by her minimal mascara and pink lipstick. NOW, Kidman is transformed. Her ringlets have been tamed into a sleek blonde up-do. There is colour in her defined cheeks, offset by sharper brows, dark eye make-up and full red lips, which work together to lift the whole look.
