Twenty-year-old Swift revamped the understated hair and makeup she wore last night at the 58th BMI Country Music Awards. Her winged tip eyeliner made her blue eyes pop and balanced out her matte, nude lips and chic updo.
Gwyneth Paltrow held her own alongside the country crooners with sleek, straight hair, dewy foundation, flushed cheeks, and a frosty nude lip.

Martina McBride's piercing blue eyes stood out thanks to shimmering, smoky eye makeup, soft pink lipstick and brunette locks.
Actress Katherine Heigl reminded us of a young Grace Kelly with her teased updo and cool, smoky eyes. She rounded out her look with rosy cheeks and lips.
