Athens-based makeup artist Jennifer Duvall imagines what we'd find inside the makeup bag of the Southern starlet—aka Mrs. Paul Newman.
Joanne Woodward | Circa 1957
Georgia native Joanne Woodward, who turns 84 on February 27, won an Oscar for The Three Faces of Eve in 1958, but we'd argue her greatest prize was Paul Newman's hand in marriage. Wed for 50 years (until his death in 2008), the dashing couple remains one of Hollywood's best love stories. Joanne, an LSU alumna, never possessed a sultry persona. Instead, she enchanted with her creamy complexion, perfect eyebrows, and soft blonde locks. While she won the Academy's vote for her three-faced portrayal of Eve, she captured Paul's heart with just one.
