Madrid-born Penelope Cruz was a star in her native Spain before becoming a leading lady in such Hollywood films as Blow, for which she has been nominated for a 2002 MTV movie award. Though her life has been transformed by movie stardom (Tom Cruise, anyone?), the 28-year-old's look hasn't -- Cruz retains the poise and classic beauty she developed as a ballet dancer. Her exquisitely chiseled features need very little makeup. To get Penelope's look -- achieved without eye shadow -- follow the advice of makeup artist Deborah Grayson.

STEP 1 Begin with the eyes so that if any eye makeup tumbles onto your cheeks it will be easy to clean off. Apply black eyeliner pencil, making a generous line above the entire upper lash line. (If your lids are not as large as Penelope's, make a slightly more narrow line.) Using a Q-tip, sponge applicator or your finger, gently smudge the line. Next apply liner inside the lower lash line. And then apply it underneath the outer third of the lower lash line. Curl lashes by crimping them at the bottom, middle and ends of the lashes. Apply mascara on the upper lids. Brush eyebrows up.
