NO ONE can recreate Monica Bellucci's Iconic Makeup

[@neledemeulemeester754]

Tailored make-up explained in a CLEAR and USEFUL way

[@FeminineLogos]

I hate to break it to you, but she would look stunning without any makeup hehe

[@ozratarot]

Holy crap… You nailed that, that looks exquisite on you

[@humeyramine]

I feel it’s more like no one can recreate Monica Bellucci’s iconic makeup look because it’s her naturally gorgeous features that makes it iconic, otherwise it’s just a smokey eye. Which boils down to “step 1: be pretty”

[@maryanellen158]

Exactly!!!

[@hauntedtoast9610]

I get what you're saying cause I used to feel that way as well but it's earthshattering when you realize how amazing you can look with makeup that looks specifically amazing on you

[@shwarma]

I mean i feel like this was a really good recreation…There’s always someone prettier out there, that’s not a valid reason imo.

[@ccc-qp7el]

I mean not really. There's plenty of women who look like her.

[@taiyabazaheer9492]

I think Alex nailed it and probably because she's also pretty to begin with. 😂

[@hk-yc4je]

Monica Belluci has been my beauty standard since I was a child. I love that she's having a renaissance within the US lately.

[@BatkoBrat]

I've always had a crush on her. She was always perfect to me, and now that I am 32.. she still is perfect

[@ClaraSunshine]

@@hk-yc4je Yes, Monica Bellucci look gorgeous. She is a "real woman". Not a skinny, unhealthy or anorexic body. That's why she is so attractive. 🌞

[@TheCalebMoline]

Step one: be Monica Bellucci 😅 I think you nailed the look. It’s giving Monica attending a Tim Burton premiere. I adore her. I remember discovering her while watching the second Matrix movie. She was just so… otherworldly. One of those people who are **literally** extraordinary. I went home and looked at everything she’d done. The fashion, the looks, the walk. I was kind of obsessed, and looking back, I think she was my first gay-boy’s-feminine-icon. 😆

[@caitlinalb]

Matrix Monica was breathtaking! I still Remember first watching that scene!

[@federicopedroni3647]

I hear you. I am a gay boy from Italy and Monica is such a queen and gay supporter over here ❤

[@darinaa3819]

If by any chance you haven’t seen L’appartment… it’s a must see.

[@anniebejarano9198]

Your eyes came out GORGEOUS!!!!! Thank you for sharing these tips!!!!❤

[@melindahernandez7080]

Great advice. I love how your end result looked like you just dialed up the saturation levels to your own natural coloring. Love it. Love the artistry you brought it the look, and how you explained it for our own experimentation.

[@cosmic_lotus_eater]

She's also a great example of high contrast features makeup!! As someone like me who is indian with big eyes and big lips, her makeup look which are minimal /effortless (or can be dialed down since its either a smoky eye or bold lip) looks the best on me as opposed to a soft contrast makeup that was trending a month ago

[@Life-vu5te]

oh, same i am Indian as well. plus, focus is definitely on eyes and lips but even in eyes they are relatively neutral plus black.

[@taiyabazaheer9492]

Agreed, I'm Indian and I'll never not use black kohl pencil. It really suits our features.

[@marinamorgue]

This makes sense. I noticed that sharp, angular shapes dont suit my face at all because my features like eyebrows, cheeks, jawline and eyes are quite rounded. When I accentuate those features makeup tends to look the best on me. There isnt a "one size fits all-makeup look" in my opinion :D

[@jessica_jam4386]

Oh man this is super interesting! Maybe this is why I feel like I always look pretty rough in low contrast, overall soft makeup looks, even though I’ve loved that look on other people. I have big lips and somewhat big eyes, but idk if your coloring, season, and all that also effects how you figure this stuff out

[@carolina7306]

@@jessica_jam4386 I think those things do affect it, for example I'm a (Deep/Dark) Winter color season, and Winters tend to have high contrast, whether between iris color and skin, skin and hair, or teeth/whites of the eyes and skin. (I think Dark Autumns do as well?) For me, what works is keeping colors either dark or light, and relatively neutral -- for example, a light shadow on my lid, with black eyeliner, and a darker lip color or neutral lip color. That way I'm maintaining the natural color contrast in my features. But when I mess up that contrast by, say, putting a 'medium' tone color like a medium brown all over my lid, or a very light color on my lips, it looks all weird. I believe Monica Bellucci is a Winter as well, possibly a True Winter.

[@wheellsofconfusion]

Okay but this look is absolutely breathtaking, you nailed it 🖤💪🏼

[@nevill31]

At one point I literally saw Monica's eyes on your face, amazing skill! Bravo!

[@xoxjelloxox]

Your eyes are so clear and the ring around the outside is so dark. You are so lucky!!

[@tinahickman6300]

When you made the original video I took your advice and immediately switched my eyeliners from black to different shades of taupe and brown and have been doing my makeup like this ever since! To use the colors and tones of your natural hair, eyebrows, eye color, Etc is such solid good advice!!

[@mrsllcp]

Amazing result and explanation!

[@JiHu-d8c]

She enhances her natural looks. Yours came out awesome.

[@elizabethorfalo]

Okay Alex but you slayed this look. That neutral warm smoky eye on your complexion is breathtaking ❤❤ thanks for reminding us that what works for one person will not work for everyone, and we need to tailor our makeup to suit our own features.

[@kolourgen1762]

Stunning! You nailed it🤩🙌🏽🎉

[@Isi.31]

This is good as people try to recreate trends in any sort of fashion that don’t look good on everyone I think inspiration is a key element with your own style

[@mickeyremich3039]

This might be the best smoky eye (your interpretation) I’ve seen!!! It’s not trying too hard but doing so much!

[@sadist8902]

you actually helped me here, because when I think of “my color” in make-up I think of my skin and it’s undertone. I’ve never thought to use my eyebrows, hair or eye color. I still find it hard because it’s like a really dark brown, dark blonde and my eyes differ from blue to green to grey (mood) but I’ll definitely experiment.

[@chelsea.1234]

you should do her Beetlejuice 2 character’s look for Halloween ❤

[@mildacha8050]

I love your approach to make up, it is very authentic colorwise, yet obviously related to the original model and definitelly gives off that vibe. ❤

it's a gorgeous look, not that I expect anything less from you. but the way you're saying her last name is making my eye twitch 😂 she's not related to the late actor Jim Belushi. she's actually related to my high school Spanish teacher. that last syllable is a CHEE sound, not a she sound.

[@Bella_KG]

Hell yes!! I genuinely won’t understand people following makeup and fashion trends for the hell of it despite it not flatteringly their body or face shape. Trends are tempting but wouldn’t it be so much nicer if we all encouraged each other to highlight our own unique beauty?

[@Ren-er7fg]

What’s flattering on you is entirely opinion based. Some people like following makeup trends and feel like it looks good on them as well… No one should HAVE to box themselves in with ONE makeup look just because one person thinks it “highlights their beauty” and it’s not how they feel about it in particular.

[@angiemynhardt639]

I love what you do you really have a talent..for changing...and using good makeup

[@katjaplatin7754]

My first thought was: Monica looks stunning because she's a natural beauty, but after your make up tutorial i think that make up might have really enhanced certain features and gave a balanced but strong contrast

[@MaraliNatalia]

Sorry I’m not trying to troll or be rude but from a girl from Italy, I will say I think you should probably learn how to say her name right before doing a video about her Makeup in Italy CC is pronounced CH so her name is not Monica belushi it’s pronounced Beluchi (Bellucci)
