Kristen Stewart’s 2009 MTV Movie Awards Makeup

I was loving the young, playful makeup and hair Twilight starlet Kristen Stewart sported at this year’s MTV Movie Awards, so I decided to give you guys a few tips on recreating her look! Here’s how to do it step-by-step:

Step I: Face Makeup

1. Apply a sheer foundation or tinted moisturizer like Stila Sheer Color all over your face. We want to keep your skin’s natural beauty showing through — that’s the best way to keep your look young.
2. Dab a subtle bronzer at the base of your cheekbones, then blend forward lightly. This replaces the need for blush to enhance your color, keeping the look pale without it being Edward Cullen-pale!

Step II: Eyeshadow

1. You’ll need 3 shadow colors: gray, dark brown and a rosy pink (TIP: if you’re lacking a suitable pink shadow, just use one of your cooler-toned blush colors!)
2. Apply the grey eyeshadow shade all over the eyelid. Then, apply the rosy pink eyeshadow to the base of the browbone just above the crease and blend upward.
3. Using the dark brown shadow, apply to the outer corners of eyes and your eyelid crease.  Blend outward from the corners and scoop the shadow upward slightly, suggesting a line from the shadow to the end of your eyebrow.

Step III: Finishing the Eyes and Lips

1. Run a colored eyebrow mascara (I like the one by MAC) through your brows, then smooth through with a Q-tip. Finish your brows with a deep brown eyebrow pencil — the brows in this look are sharp and intense, so don’t be afraid!
2. Line the inner rims of eyelids around the entire eye with a black kohl eyeliner pencil. Coat lashes twice with your favorite black mascara.
3. Lips are the easiest part of this look: a subtle shimmer like what the new shimmery Chapsticks offer will do just fine!
