Nicole Kidman’s makeup artist shared her hack for the ‘perfect amount of radiance’

Nicole Kidman’s makeup artist, Gucci Westman, used Clé de Peau Beauté highlighter beneath foundation for the actress’s look at the 2026 LACMA Art+Film Gala. Applying it only above the cheekbones was intended to give her skin a subtle, natural-looking radiance.

Westman said Kidman’s ballet-inspired Chanel dress, drawn from the spring 2027 collection, inspired the makeup’s golden tones. The brand says its opal-powder highlighter resists fading and creasing for up to 12 hours. Kidman has also worn the brand’s products during campaigns and her “Practical Magic 2” press tour.
