Monica Bellucci's makeup from the 90s flooded the web: how to repeat the look

A languid siren is not an image, it is a state of mind. And it can be recreated in makeup, which has been a fan of Italian actress Monica Bellucci since the nineties.

She has always been praised for her penchant for natural beauty, skillfully emphasized with the help of cosmetics. The main features of the star have always been tanned skin and lips of a juicy berry shade. To repeat the makeup of the star, which she did at the height of her fame in the nineties, you need to create brown smoky eyes in combination with soft lips and satin skin.

The essence of the trend

Having starred in such cult films as The Matrix and Malena, Monica Bellucci has become the living embodiment of Italian beauty. No wonder modern influencers are trying to recreate her sophisticated and refined elegance as an Italian siren.

After a whole summer of minimalist beauty trends, this look is both a breath of fresh air and a nostalgic bow to the glamor of the 90s. Confident and seductive, the Italian siren knows her worth and is not afraid to take matters into her own hands. She lives la dolce vita in her own way. Sometimes she's a glamorous villain that we secretly worry about. Her makeup is a reflection of this, luxuriously velvety and a little intoxicating.

How to do Italian siren makeup

The main nuance of this look is well-tinted velvety skin with a matte finish. And don't forget about bronzer and subtle taupe blush with a pink undertone. They should be applied to the protruding parts of the cheeks to lift the face.

Of course, the center of attraction in this makeup is a smoky look. The eyes should be lifted and stretched to add drama and volume. Letizia Carnevali, a makeup artist who has been working with Bellucci for 20 years, spoke about the star's eye makeup as follows: "I always use a brown pencil to create deep, enchanting eyes topped with eyeshadow that is sometimes champagne, sometimes dark gold." Then she applies eyeliner to the inner line and around the lash line. For more drama, you can always blend the eyeliner a little.

As for the lips, nothing works better for the Italian siren look than a nude pink lipstick. Add a drop of balm on top for a moist glow. And finally, a little trick from Carnevale - apply a little concealer on a cotton swab and circle your lips with it to give them more definition.
