Keira Knightley

Foundation: After moisturizing, use a matte foundation in a shade as close to your natural skin tone as possible. Blend well. Color: Nude Beige LOreal True Match Liquid Makeup

Concealer: Apply concealer to the inner corners of the eyes, eyelids and underneath to cover dark circles . Use a puff or sponge to press the powder into the upper and lower eyelids. Color: Light Physicians Formula Concealer

Blush: Use a cream or powder formula blush in a delicate rose, or peach depending upon which compliments your skin tone better. Round faces look better with blush applied to the apple of the cheek, while narrower faces can take blush on the cheekbone. Color: Soft Rose LOreal Cashmere Perfect Blush

Dust your entire face at this stage with a matte pressed powder in a shade that matches your foundation. Color: Translucent Physicians Formula Face Powder

Eyelid: Apply a matte tan shade on the lid and right into the upper lashline. Sweep this shade along the lower lashline, as well.

Crease: Apply a matte smoke or charcoal shadow in the crease from corner to corner. Blend very well, paying special attention to delicately blend into the lid shadow. Color: Smoke Laura Mercier Eye Shadow

Brow bone: Apply a light layer of highlighter eyeshadow just below brow bone.

Eyeliner: Choose a black or smoke eye pencil. Use pencil eyeliner or a wet liner brush to apply cake liner or eyeshadow . Apply a thin line to the top lash line, from corner to corner. Ensure that you get in between the lashes. Now apply on lower lashline, creating a very thin fine line all the way across. Finally, trace a thin, delicate line around the inner corners of the eyes.

Trace over your eyeliner with your crease eyeshadow using an angled eyeshadow brush and then smudge with sponge tip applicator. This creates a widening of the color from the lid to below the lower lashes just a bit. Finally, use a clean brush or applicator to gently blend and soften the overall eye look to your desired result. Keira's look has no hard edges or sharp lines, except for the liner around the inner corners of the eyes. Color: Noir Expert 01 Bourjois Kohl Precision Pencil

Brows: Use a brow pencil or powder to shape and fill in brows.

Mascara: Curl lashes and coat two or three times with a black mascara.

Lips: Choose a lipstick in a very delicate matte nude, pink or peach. Apply one coat of the lipstick and blot with tissue, then apply a second coat, blot again, and apply one more coat for lasting power. Color: Imagine Lorac Lipstick
