Zoe Saldana was easily one of the night’s best dressed at the 2016 Met Gala—perhaps even having her best red carpet style moment ever! Makeup artist Vera Steimberg wanted to complement her stunning Dolce & Gabbana gown with a chromatic beauty look. Here are the steps to get it:

1. To prep Zoe’s skin and ensure a flawless, poreless canvas, Steimberg applied Charlotte’s Magic Cream ($100) generously to the entire face, massaging it in to plump skin and create a luminous glow. Then, she followed with Magic Eye Rescue ($60) to smooth the delicate eye area.
2. Next, she applied Charlotte Tilbury Wonderglow ($55) on the cheekbones, bridge of the nose and brow bone to create a “spotlight” effect. For a naturally beautiful complexion, apply Light Wonder Foundation in Shade 10 ($45).

3. To create a red carpet contour and gorgeous highlight, she used Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze & Glow in Light-Medium ($68).

4. For the eyes, Steimberg applied a wash of color on the eyelids with creme eyeshadow Eyes to Mesmerise in Mona Lisa and Jean ($32 each), and then used the same combination to line the lower lashes for a serious shimmer. Next, she lined into the lash line with the Colour Chameleon Eyeshadow Pencil in Bronzed Garnet ($27)—using it all the way up the lid and blending the two jewel tones together for a more defined shadow. To enhance Zoe’s eyes and give her a wide-eyed, fresh look, she lined the lower lashes with Colour Chameleon Eyeshadow Pencil in Bronzed Garnet ($27) and used The Feline Flick ($30) to dot between the upper lashes—creating a fuller, false-lash effect. She finished with several coats of of Charlotte Tilbury Full Fat Lashes ($29).

5. To complete the look, Steimberg opted for a soft pink lip by applying Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner in Pillowtalk ($22) followed by Charlotte Tilbury K.I.S.S.I.N.G. Lipstick in Hepburn Honey ($32).
6. Once dressed, Steimberg created the illusion of elongated, gilded limbs with Supermodel Body ($65)—a shimmer for the body that catches the light for a glowing finish.
