Nicole Kidman’s makeup artist shared her hack for the ‘perfect amount of radiance’
Want to feel like Nicole?
The Oscar-winning actress was positively glowing on the the LACMA Art+Film Gala 2026 red carpet this weekend, thanks to a beauty look from her longtime makeup artist, Gucci Westman.
The industry icon reached for Clé de Peau Beauté products for Kidman’s glam, including the brand’s Luminizing Face Enhancer.
The luxe highlighter contains opal powder for an iridescent sheen that reflects and absorbs light. Rather than applying it after foundation, Westman instead layered it underneath as a base.
“[I used it] only above cheek bone to have the perfect amount of radiance, and luminance from within,” she explained in a press release.
According to the luxe Japanese beauty brand, the powder doesn’t fade or crease for up to 12 hours — ideal for a lengthy red carpet event.

The gold undertones perfectly complemented Kidman’s ballet-inspired Chanel dress, which was plucked straight from the brand’s spring 2027 ready-to-wear line.
“Nicole’s dress for the LACMA Gala was inspired by Degas and the beautiful colorway inspired my makeup choices,” Westman said.
Kidman is a longtime fan of Clé de Peau Beauté, having starred in multiple brand campaigns. She also reached for its products during her “Practical Magic 2” press tour — including the Beauté Eye Contour Cream Supreme, which Westman called a “hero” at the time.
“I want to use the products to enhance Nicole’s natural beauty,” she explained.
