Zoe Saldana looked every inch the L’Oréal Paris spokesperson for the Cannes Film Festival opening ceremony with her hair set in pretty side-swept waves and her makeup consisting of a delicate cat eye and bright red lips.

Here’s how to get her look.

The Base: Prep your skin by applying a dewy primer to create a smooth canvas for the rest of your makeup to adhere to. Next use a flat brush to dab foundation across your cheeks, chin, nose and forehead and blend until full coverage is achieved.

Take hold of Zoe’s healthy looking glow by applying highlighter across both sides of your face in the shape of a ‘3.’ A hit of colour underneath the cheekbones will also enhance the contouring effect. L’Oréal’s True Match blush in Rosewood is the perfect match to Zoe’s rosy cheeks to bring warmth to your beauty finish.

The Eyes: For Zoe’s sultry cat eye makeup, start with a wash of bronze eyeshadow across the base of your eyelids. Then using a black liquid eyeliner, trace a thin line across your upper and lower lash line. Continue the line from your upper lash line finishing in a slightly upward-angled straight line. Finish the look with a couple of coats of mascara.

The Lips: Complete your beauty look with a swipe of red lipstick for an effortlessly glamorous finish.
