She’s topped countless ‘most beautiful women’ polls over her years in Hollywood. Now it’s finally been revealed how Michelle Pfeiffer looks so good at 68.
Legend Award Outfit
The screen star donned a stunning cream dress from Chanel’s autumn/winter 2026 collection as she accepted the Legend Award in New York earlier this week. Her stylist Samantha McMillen told The Telegraph, “The ivory really suited her coloring – such an elegant piece, especially if you have the arms to pull it off.”
“It’s figure-skimming and flattering but not too tight, and slightly reminiscent of Twenties flapper dresses… I love the swish of the skirt when she walks.”
“It’s very chic and refined. Pfeiffer is around 5ft 7in, and you have to be quite tall to pull this style off, which she does with aplomb.”
Michelle Pfeiffer looks as good in casual ensembles as she does in formal ones. She proves this in her new series, The Madison.
Makeup Looks
She’s also perfected her hair and make-up over the years. Telegraph beauty director Sonia Haria says we can all learn something from her Legend Award look. This is especially true for keeping things flattering over the age of 50.
She said, “Masterfully applied by make-up artist Valli O’Reilly, the soft, smoky eyeshadow, glossy burnt-peach lip gloss and lightly powdered cheeks looked beautiful, but I’d argue the star of the show was Pfeiffer’s eyebrows.”
“Any good make-up artist will agree that a set of eyebrows can make or break a midlife beauty look. In Pfeiffer’s case, her lightly filled in, arched brows add shape and structure to her face.”
Using Organic Options

When it comes to her makeup choices, the actress is specific about what she wants. Michelle Pfeiffer is a big fan of keeping the products she uses as organic and clean as possible.
She previously told Oprah Daily, “You begin to look at the world through the eyes of your children, and you just want to protect them – so you start looking at health in a preventive way.”
“I have to have different standards. There are products that I know to be super safe, and if I’m not working and won’t be photographed, I’ll use those.”
Among Michelle’s favorite beauty products is the W3LL People mascara, which is sold as “clean” and “non-toxic” on Amazon.
