There are those who have confirmed themselves trendsetter absolute over all and beyond Covid-19. There are those who exploded for a TV series providing on the screen, episode after episode, inspo beauty to be copied immediately. Then there are the royal girls, some endowed with a reassuring beauty, some, on the contrary, rock and against the tide. And then the women in politics who have reached the top of the world, send a message from the beauty details as well as the divas of the star system with something to say, as well as to show. Ten women who for us have distinguished themselves in beauty, ten women with an edge. They are the ones who have the scepter of beauty queen 2020, dose horribilis that precisely in beauty, however, has found a foothold to cling to. Here, then, is the golden team that has brought light to these dark months. Attention: the following is not a ranking, all of them are number 1.

KATE MIDDLETON
And speaking of queens, how not to include the Duchess of Cambridge among the absolute beauty icons 2020, point of reference for many of us especially for its hair messy always impeccable (even in full lockdown without a team of hairdressers in tow). We always copy her very relaxed and perfect semi-gathered hairstyles from morning to evening and especially, we followed his switch of color during the year. Kate has, in fact, recently gone from bright caramel reflections to a very glossy chocolate shade. But immediately after the lockdown she had shown herself with a coppery shade then turned to blonde in the summer. All nuances immediately intercepted by our beauty radars.

LILY COLLINS
His eyebrows bushy they have always distinguished it. But to give her the title of beauty icon this year was the most fashionable TV series since the days of Sex & The City, of course Emily in Paris, in onda su Netflix. Lily Collins has a natural beauty, a porcelain complexion and features that make her look like Audrey Hepburn. But with Emily in Paris the spotlight was not only on the designer outfits, but also about her hair and make-up looks. Her hair in waves created artfully with iron was the hairstyle wannahave of the last few months as well as the textured ballerina chignon with a lot of rhinestone tiaras, soft and romantic semi gathered and high and wavy ponytails to show off during the day. The make-up instead is inspired by Parisian aesthetics timeless: lips dressed in intense red nuances and material mascara. Effortless chic, it’s easier!

ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ
Activist, politician, and of course beauty benchmark. Born in the Bronx and of Puerto Rican descent, elected in the 14th district of New York, is an inspiration to millions of women around the world. The free and emancipated spirit that distinguishes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez channels it into the look, elegant, but never too serious. In particular, Alexandria she is a lover of bright lipsticks, that she wears naturally, combined with naked eyes and defined eyebrows. In June, she tweeted her favorite lipstick shade, namely Kiss of the liquid lipstick Stay All Day of the Stila brand. And it reminded us of how good red lips make us feel, even hidden by the mask.

CHIARA FERRAGNI
In the most difficult and horrendous year ever, the digital entrepreneur has been able to reinvent herself in an excellent way, coming out as a super winner. Through Instagram he has always shown us, during the lockdown and beyond, the importance of never neglecting himself and, indeed, continue to experiment. His beauty look like catchers despite the pandemic have ranged from natural to sophisticated, according to mood. Healthy bearer of blondness (one of the most popular nuances on celebs in these months), testimonial of Pantene for which she emphasized the concept of well-being that starts from the head, Chiara has tried them all in terms of hair (and we with her). And the same goes for make-up (he also launched the Chiara Ferragni x Lancôme collection). In addition, it has a plus glow: expecting the second child and is naturally radiant.

JENNIFER LOPEZ
Not even the global epidemic was able to stop cyclone J.Lo. The 51-year-old super bionic diva (she is, of course) started 2020 with an amazing performance feat. Shakira at the Super Bowl (but how much did we want her soft, wavy hair?) And ended it with the announcement of the arrival of her radiance-enhancing skincare line, JLo Beauty, in January 2021. The main ingredient in the range is olive oil rich in antioxidants, and while we can’t wait to try it, remember that over the months there have been amazing hairstyles (from wet look to the 80s hedgehogs, from crops to buns 90s, and much, much more) and space makeup (but also social #nomakeup shots to show that Jennifer Lopez is beautiful and that’s all). Not to mention his physique that to say tonic is an understatement. Bionics, in fact.

KAMALA HARRIS
The world’s first female American Vice President, Kamala Harris, of Jamaican and Indian descent, represents the modern beauty icon the world needed. A contemporary icon of feminine power that also passes through the image. Above all, hair becomes a symbol of strength, class and reliability. A medium scaled cut with upturned tips, very shiny and always in the crease combined with an ultra simple make-up based on eyeliner and freshly colored lipstick. False lashes are her signature, the secret behind Harris’s intense, deep, winning gaze that she uses them especially in public speaking occasions. On the nails, however, only the French. In short, dynamic and accurate.

ZENDAYA
The American diva made her mark this year, becoming the youngest winner in the history of an Emmy for Best Actress (for the TV series Euphoria). Known for her full brows and being a beauty chameleon (over the years she has tried everything in terms of make-up and hairstyles), Zendaya is a true style icon and a great reference point for girls. Activist, committed and mature well beyond her 24 years, the star was nominated at the beginning of the year as the face of the CoverGirl bran and, later, also of the Idôle fragrances by Lancôme of which she embodies the young essence that conquers every age.

CHARLÈNE OF MONACO
Princess fromattitude punk. He looks like a character from a movie, but he is real, in every sense: Charlène absolutely represents the other side of the monarchy, more rebellious, or maybe just contemporary. In this, the head shots helped her that radically changed her image during the course of 2020. First a turnaround to her first staid bob, then made rock thanks to a mini fringe with a 20s effect in key 20s of the third millennium. At the end of the pandemic year the most extreme revolution all‘hairlook: a gritty half-shaved undercut that needs a good dose of courage. If not copy, we can only approve.

ANYA TAYLOR-JOY
Impossible not to have watched even one episode of Lto chess queen, mini series of records by Netflix that has made the fame of actress Anya Taylor-Joy soaring that a producer of Walt Disney Studios, as reported by the Daily Mail, he defined “as a character from a Japanese anime become real; its beauty is otherworldly and has global appeal. There is no doubt that he will become a big star ». Already the face of the Flowerbomb fragrance by Victor & Rolf, Anya has generated unconditional love for the retro beauty look: each of her magnificent hairstyles from the TV series, each of her make-up, have been x-rayed and assimilated to be proposed for the right occasion by each of us.

ADELE
The British pop star is the symbol of rebirth: during 2020 it really made a extreme make over to his image, losing more than 40 kilos. The photos he posted on Instagram last May, showing a new one silhouettand wrapped in a black mini dress and long, wavy blonde hair, she left everyone speechless. Adele, in short, has given herself a new Adele demonstrating her extraordinary willpower. In October she appeared as the “special” presenter on Saturday Night Live! with a 1950s diva beauty look. And we are even more fans of it.
