The Academy Award for Best Makeup and Hairstyling is the Academy Award given to the best achievement in makeup and hairstyling for film.

The Academy Awards are given each year by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the best films and achievements of the previous year.

The Academy Award for Best Animated Feature was first awarded in 2002 for films made in 2001.
