Prix Iris for Best Makeup

The Prix Iris for Best Makeup (French: Prix Iris du meilleur maquillage) is an annual film award, presented by Québec Cinéma as part of its Prix Iris awards program, to honour the year's best makeup work in films made within the Cinema of Quebec.

The award was presented for the first time at the 6th Jutra Awards in 2004.

Until 2016, it was known as the Jutra Award for Best Makeup in memory of influential Quebec film director Claude Jutra.[1] Following the withdrawal of Jutra's name from the award, the 2016 award was presented under the name Québec Cinéma.[1] The Prix Iris name was announced in October 2016.[2]

Kathryn Casault received the most nominations, fifteen, but only managed to win one award in 2009 for Babine.
