Esha Gupta loves accentuating her eyes when it comes to her makeup, so much so that it’s rare to spot her without her kohl or eyeliner in place. This weekend, the actor stepped out for an event in a natural makeup look that’s perfect for when a dinner plan suddenly comes up, leaving you with little time to get ready. Here’s our step-by-step guide.

To recreate Gupta’s natural look, use a lightweight foundation like the Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Foundation and make sure you conceal any dark circles and blemishes—we love the Benefit Cosmetics Boi-ing Brightening Concealer for the under-eye area. For your eyes, fill in your eyebrows to give your arches definition and dust a pearly eyeshadow on your eyelids to add a hint of colour. Then, use a black pencil eyeliner like the Marc Jacobs Beauty Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner in Blacquer and line your upper lash line. Tightline your lower lash line with the same product and smudge it till you get a barely-there, day-appropriate smoky effect. Swish a few coats of a volumising mascara like the Ciaté London Wonderwand Intensely Volumising Mascara, add some colour to your cheeks with a soft blush and pick a pinkish nude hue for your lips—the Colourpop Ultra Matte Liquid Lipstick in Sunday makes for a good choice.
