Recreate These 6 Stunning Eye Shadow Looks From the Met Gala

The Met Gala may be over, but we’ll be thinking about this year’s fashion and beauty display all season long. Especially since the event yielded some head-turning eye shadow looks that are perfect for spring and that transition well into summer. Keep reading for the standouts, plus find palettes that’ll help you recreate them.


Penelope Cruz

The Met Gala co-chair didn’t disappoint with her angelic ensemble and sunset-colored, smokey eyes. Charlotte Tilbury’s Easy Eye Palette in Charlotte Darling holds a dreamy lineup of matte and metallic shades great for sampling Penelope Cruz’s look. Layer the matte brown shades, then add a swipe of the metallic, rosy pink hue to your lids. Add a blush-toned gloss to your lips to complete the look.


Quinta Brunson

Quinta Brunson’s pink lids matched her show-stopping embellished gown as she owned the Met Gala carpet. Recreate her romantic lid look with the Natasha Denona Love Palette, blending the matte burgundy brown shade “Commitment” into your creases and swiping the rose pink hue “Valentine” onto your lids. Pair with Lilly Lashes in “Luxe” (the same ones Quinta wore!) and shiny gloss.


Suki Waterhouse

Suki Waterhouse’s petal-hued shadow just screams spring, and it matches her floral gown. Using Natasha Denona’s Retro Glam Palette, find greens and pinks to create your own variation of the look. Concentrate the greens around your tear duct, swipe the pinks along your lid, then top it off with a pigmented, red-pink blush.


Jennie Kim

Along with a chic, rose-accented dress, Jennie Kim donned a timeless, metallic pink eyeshadow look that we’ll be recreating all season long. Get her gorgeous smize with Viseart’s Paris EDIT Eye Shadow Palette. Layer the matte dusky pink shade “Pétale” and the metallic pink hue “Opera” for fresh, shimmery lids. Pair with charcoal liner and wispy lashes to complete the look.


Dua Lipa

To say Dua Lipa’s frosted, foil shadow had us levitating would be an understatement. Craft the dramatic look with this collection of otherworldly shades from Surratt Beauty’s Les Etoiles Palette in Supernova, and wear it on a warm spring or summer night out. Layer the black matte shade “Noir le Plus Noir” and silvery shimmer color “Interstellar,” then swipe on a rosy, brown lip color.


Naomi Campbell

All eyes were on Naomi Campbell as she stunned in a blush pink, silver-accented gown. Her eye look matched the ensemble with metallic pastel lids and a crisp cat eye. The Glam to Go Mini Palette from Anastasia Beverly Hills provides similar shades to recreate the look, namely the taupe-hued shade “Dawn” and the metallic pink-lilac color “Pretty.” Finish the look with liquid liner and dab on a small amount of pink color to the center of your lips for a subtle flush.
