Penelope Cruz Inspired Makeup Look





Penelope’s signature on the red carpet was soft and sultry, with a defined, smoky eye. Apply a tinted moisturizer for your foundation, and set it with Ultra-Fine Translucent Powder for a bright soft finish. Put a light coating of foundation.

On your eyes, apply a classic smoky look, by using matte brown (tips: you may change it to other dark colors such as black or blue) and smoked out the lid, blended into the crease, and then created a smoky line under the eye. Rimmed the lash line and in the inner lid with a black pencil eyeliner. (tips:Be sure to soften a freshly sharpened eyeliner pencil on the back of your hand first). Adding the black on the top lashes smudgy gave you a sexy blended eye. Then, apply a black mascara on the lashes on top.

For a soft, romantic look, dust bronzer on your cheeks. Because the eyes are always the focus of Penelope's Cruz's look, you need only a light dusting of a bronzer or peach blush on the apples of your cheeks.

Penelope’s lips were her own nude lip liner with a clear gloss, to keep the focus on the eyes. Light lips are Penelope's signature makeup look, even in the evening. Wear neutral lipsticks that are a few shades deeper than your natural skin tone, or a soft baby pink. Skip the lip gloss to keep the look matte and Penelope-perfect.

Finish the Penelope Cruz look with a light dusting of shimmery powder all over the face.
