Keep scrolling for Kate Winslet's beauty evolution from the '90s to now.

1986

The feathered-haired youngster nabbed her first professional gig-in a commercial for a kids' cereal-at age 11.

1993

A fresh-faced Winslet filmed her breakout role in Heavenly Creatures. Even though she was just 17 at the time, her straight strawberry-blonde lob lent an air of authority.

1997

Winslet captured hearts as a redhead in Titanic — and ruined her fiery mane: "It was quite damaged from all those water scenes and from re-dyeing it red so many times."

1999

A year for taking risks! Winslet bared all in Holy Smoke and lopped off her locks into a punky crop. Looking to go shorter? There's a pixie cut for every face shape.

2001

"Kate doesn't like her hair overly done," stylist Renato Campora has said of the Iris star. Case in point, the simple half-updo Winslet wore to the Screen Actors Guild Awards.

2002

"We didn't want her hair to compete with her red dress," said Campbell Mcauley of the nominee's Academy Awards look. "I pulled it into a loose bun." As for her makeup, it was kept neutral for the same reason.

2004

Evening elegance for the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind actress: a single loose tendril and sheer rose lipstick.

2005

"This is where it all started to get better for me," Winslet told InStyle of her Oscars look. "I was having a romantic moment," she said of her look, which included loose, swept-back curls and glossy pink lips.

2007

For the BAFTAs, the Little Children star rocked a '60s-inspired voluminous updo. Her fallen tendrils served a dual purpose: framing her face and making this look visually effortless.

2008

Scrunch-dried waves — Winslet's staple style — for the Revolutionary Road premiere. It's a versatile look that fits right at home on the red carpet or at the beach.

2009

With windswept hair and a radiant complexion, Winslet was absolutely mesmerizing as our cover star.

2010

"We usually do opalescent skin, pinkish lips, and lots of mascara," Dempsey said of the Mildred Pierce star's signature combo.

2011

At the Venice Film Festival premiere of Carnage, Winslet showed us a dressed-up version of a mini-pompadour.

Winslet won a Golden Globe for Mildred Pierce wearing a casually tousled updo and sheer rose gloss.

2013

The mom-to-be kept her makeup natural, going for a sheer lip and shimmery eye at the premiere of Labor Day.

The English rose exudes elegance without even trying. A fresh face, tousled waves, and a simple pink lip — plus, diamond drop earrings — make her red carpet-ready.

2015

A subtle smoky eye and swept-back hair let Winslet's true beauty shine through. By leaving this style a little loose, it keeps from looking overly formal (read: severe).

2016

If anyone can pull off a cool-girl hair flip and blonde beach waves on the red carpet, it's Winslet.

2017

The actress wore her hair up in a loose updo to complement her dress's embellished high neckline, pairing the look with pink eyeshadow and a matching lip.

At the London Film Critics Circle Awards, Winslet showed us how a little cat eye, red lip, and tousled waves never hurt anyone.
