With four Emmy nominations and a jaw-dropping Chloé gown, Maya Rudolph hit last night's red carpet ready in all her glowing, flushed, fabulous glory.
"For tonight’s look, I wanted Maya to have a glowing complexion with a super juicy flushed cheek and a playful bright lip," shares her makeup artist Molly R. Stern. "I kept her eyes simple, yet defined."
The glowing-skin magic was courtesy of Monastery, a healing botanical skin-care line made in small batches in San Francisco. (According to the brand, Rudolph also uses the brand at home.)
"To start, I prepped Maya’s skin by applying a mix of MONASTERY XX ($79) and MONASTERY Gold ($159) for a very gentle exfoliation," Stern shares. "Next, I applied MONASTERY Aloe ($84), which is a hyaluronic moisture boost. I then layered a mix of MONASTERY Flora ($140) and Attar ($168) and massaged that into her skin using JILLIAN DEMPSEY Gold Bar ($195) for an entirely quenched, super glowing base to build her beauty look upon."
Stern and aesthetician Athena Hewett (who founded the brand) say mixing Monastery's Flora and Attar at the end of prep contributes to a "super glow."

"For Maya’s complexion, I first used CHANEL Ultra Le Teint Foundation ($65) in color BD41 as a highlighter by applying a small amount under her eyes, on her upper cheekbones, upper jawline and bridge of her nose," Stern shared on Instagram. "I then applied a veil of CHANEL Les Beiges Water-fresh Complexion Touch ($70) in color B40 to the remaining naked parts of her skin blending the two foundations together where they met. This effect gave her skin a boost of light where she needed it without ever looking heavy."
Next, Stern applied some shading to the hollows of her cheeks and jawline using CHANEL Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream ($60) in color 395 - Soliel Tan Deep Bronze.
"Now, the build of flush. I started by layering CHANEL No. 1 Lip and Cheek Balm ($48) in the colors 1 Red Camellia and 4 Wake-up Pink and applied a generous amount to the apples of her cheeks. Then I applied a wash of CHANEL Baume Essentiel ($48) in the color Dragée to the upper cheekbones. I finished off her healthy cheek with a dusting of CHANEL Josue’s Contraste Intense ($52) in Rose Radiant."
For Maya’s eyes, Stern says she subtly contoured her crease using CHANEL Stylo Ombré Et Contour ($38) in the color Electric Brown. Then, she added a soft wash of the sheer peach from CHANEL Les 4 Ombres Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow ($68) in color Tissé Vendôm. "I then added a swipe of CHANEL Stylo Yeux Waterproof ($35) in Brun Agapé to under her lash line. I then added two coats of CHANEL Le Volume mascara ($40) in color 10."
For Maya’s lips, she swiped on the stunning CHANEL 31 Le Rouge ($195) in 4 Rouge Flou for a "fanciful finish."
