1 Lashes Are Enough to Make a Statement.

Fox wears a heavy coat of mascara or tonnes of artificial lashes, but she allows her eyes to speak for themselves. The actress wears long, curled lashes and light makeup for a more approachable take on red-carpet glamour.

2 There Are Several Shades of Red.

A girl can never have too many tiny black skirts or red lipstick hues, two axioms Fox knows well. Her lipstick matches her makeup: orange-reds with dewy makeup and deep wine-reds with smokey eyes, polished skin, and her distinctive sexy pout.

3 Hair Doesn’t Need to Be Complicated to Be Pretty.

Fox’s hair looks great from a coffee run to the red carpet. She can pull off beachy waves with a couture gown or a sleek ponytail for a film premiere. Her easygoing demeanor contributes to her attraction.

4 The most luscious lips are those that are glossy and rosy.

Sure, the actress has gorgeous lips already, but a few swipes of glassy rose gloss make them appear even larger. Almay Pure Blends Lip Gloss in Fig and Lorac Couture Shine in Couture are two of our favorites.

5 If You’re Going Retro, Don’t Go Overboard.

Fox takes a fresh look at 1940s glamour. She maintains her makeup delicate and peachy while loosening up her Rita Hayworth waves.

6 With the Right Hairstyle, a Middle Part Can Be Beautiful.

A center part with stick-straight hair conjures up images of elementary school picture day, but Fox pulls it off with grown-up undulating waves and no trace of schoolgirlishness.

7 It’s sometimes more appealing not to smile.

What is the key to creating an aura of mystery? A slight smirk—it’s one of Fox’s signature photo-op poses that takes no time to master.

8 Don’t Be Afraid to Draw Attention to Your Brows.

Fox’s eyes pop out even with minimal makeup due to her well-shaped, lightly filled-in brows. Makeup artist Dick Page suggests using a waxy cream eye makeup to fill in brows: “These products glisten like hairs and give the brows a healthy sheen,” according to Page.

9. The Over-The-Shoulder Glance is the trendiest pose.

You learn how to use the camera when you’re a red-carpet fixture like Fox. A three-quarter profile pose is deceptive, yes, but it also highlights cheekbones—and who couldn’t use a lift like that?

10 Allow Yourself a Break Sometimes.

Some celebrities are truly human. Fox understands that she doesn’t need to be totally coiffed to go grocery shopping, and it’s wonderful to see her in minimal makeup and a ponytail.
