False lashes? A must. But first, use a white eyeliner pencil to line the inner rim of the lower lashes. This makeup trick brightens the eyes and makes you appear more alert, even if you’re deprived of sleep. Use a black eye liner pencil to draw a fine line along the inside edge of the upper and lower lash lines.

Halle Berry keeps her eye makeup light and clean. The goal is to brighten up brown eyes and avoid colors that look muddy. Apply a hint of gold eye shadow at the tear duct of each eye for a glowing effect.

Don’t skip the blush and bronzer, as these are the keys to getting Halle Berry’s sculpted cheekbones and coffee-and-cream complexion (a look that earned her a gig as the face of Revlon). Sweep powder bronzer on the forehead, bridge of the nose and cheeks to mimic the glow you get when the sun hits your face. You can contour the hollows of your cheeks with the same shade, applied genersouly.

Outline your lips with a liner that is slightly darker than yournatural color for a pouty look, then blend with a lip brush. Dab chocolate pink lipstick, followed by a caramel lip gloss, on the lower lip using your finger for a demure Halle Berry look. --Stephanie Simons
