But her beauty look didn't hold back on the bling either. The actor wore bronze and copper shades on her eyes, lips and cheeks, and a dramatic, rhinestone-encrusted manicure, tying it all in to a gold sheer nude plunge dress with a high leg slit by Dolce & Gabbana, proving that major red carpet moments are still here to stay. If you want to recreate this makeup look, read on for the exact lip shades that Chopra's long-time makeup artist Mary Phillips picked.
