As Valentina in the new comedy flick Zoolander 2 (which hits theatres today), Penélope Cruz graces the big screen as a sultry fashionista from Interpol’s fashion division. In her latest role, the 41-year-old actress stuns with her darkly defined eyes and striking makeup. If you’re looking to update your own beauty statement this weekend, here’s how to achieve the Spanish bombshell’s look from the film now.

1) Apply liquid foundation for a smooth visage: While you may not be taking the world by storm with Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller) and Hansel (Owen Wilson) by your side, you can always channel your inner Valentina with a flawless glow. Use a kabuki brush to apply sheer coverage liquid foundation to your visage.

2) Define your eyebrows with a dark brown eyebrow pencil: If your natural eyebrows are light in colour, try recreating Cruz’s signature brows from the film with eyebrow pencil. Use a chocolate brown eyebrow pencil to fill in your own arches for a seductive look.

3) Create a cat eye effect and line your lower eyelids with black liquid eyeliner: For instantly glamorous eyes which will stun at any parties on your social calendar this weekend, use a black liquid eyeliner to trace your upper eyelids. Create an exaggerated cat eye flick, and then gently trace your lower lash line with the eyeliner as well.

4) Add black volumizing mascara or false lashes for a dramatic effect: To truly bring the attention up to your eyes, curl your lashes and add a double coat of black volumizing mascara. You can also apply false eyelashes for a doe-eyed effect.

5) Finish your look with rosy blush and pink matte lipstick: Wrap up your fierce Valentina inspired makeup look by gently contouring your cheekbones with natural-looking rose pink blush. Showcase your feminine pout with matte effect lipstick in a classic darker pink shade, and prepare to wow with a beauty statement worthy of Penélope Cruz herself!
