Anna Cathcart Gives Cosmo a Behind-the-Scenes Look at Her 2026 Oscars Prep Process (Exclusive)
The XO, Kitty star made her Oscars debut in sparkling style.
Anna Cathcart is a star on the rise, and her latest red carpet appearance proves it. The XO, Kitty star made her Oscars debut on Sunday, March 15—along with fellow Gen Z queens like Mckenna Grace, Ariana Greenblatt, and Chase Infiniti—and she truly brought her A-game. Styled by Caroline DeJean, Anna wore a sparkling silver cowl-neck dress from Jenny Packham, which she accessorized with Nicole Rose jewelry. She finished off her look with a low ponytail and a full face of ColourPop Cosmetics, including the cool-toned Silver Lining palette to complement her sparkling gown.
Wondering how she got her gorgeous glow? For that, she can thank ColourPop’s Cloud Whip Blurring Liquid Lipstick and the newly reformulated Blush Stix, which add the perfect wash of color to her lips and cheeks. Stuuunning. To celebrate her Academy Awards debut, Anna brought Cosmopolitan along as she got glammed up for her big night and let us in on her secrets to successfully enjoying the awards show (spoiler alert: coffee and headphones were definitely involved). She dropped us never-before-seen pics of her GRWM process with captions from her POV of the glimmering night.

“Incredibly important first step.”
“My dream team!! A mix of a glam squad, a therapist, and a hype man all in one.”

“Diamonds on diamonds!”
“Ta daaa! We’re ready to go, folks.”
“And a moment for the hair.”

“It’s happening!! Let’s do this thing.”
“A dream come true. For real, someone pinch me.”
“The most special night!! Let the after party begin.”
