A smoldering eye was the focus of Mckinnon's head-turning red carpet look. We love the way her makeup artist Cassandra Garcia used hues like rose gold and burgundy to soften the overall finish in lieu of harsher tones like black and charcoal. Plus, her lashes—courtesy of Lashify—are amazing

She considers her day-to-day beauty aesthetic very low-maintenance and relies on staples like clear brow serum (from Kimiko!), Lawless's Lip Plumping Mask in Cherry Vanilla, and an eyelash curler. For special occasions or days when she's taking more meetings or has an event, she'll wear anything and everything from Charlotte Tilbury (the foundations are game-changing), some shimmer on her lids (Stila and Róen do it best), and a few coats of the best mascara-type product on earth, Surratt's Noir Lash Tint.
