Heart Evangelista shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. The Filipina fashion muse continues to stun and inspire at the same time. Just recently, her collaboration with iconic Italian brand Dolce & Gabbana Beauty was launched, to the Internet's amazement. See the video below:

In the video, the beautiful actress speaks about how kindness should come naturally. She talks about how growing up with a generous father inspired her to be the same way. She ends the video with a striking quote—"Devotion is tangible."

While we are not strangers to Heart's grace and kindness, we are still in awe of how utterly beautiful she looks with every passing day.

In an exclusive interview with Heart's go-to makeup artist Memay Francisco, we spoke about the Dolce&Gabbana Beauty shoot, what products we'll need to achieve Heart's fiery look, and what holiday trends we're supposed to be sporting this holiday season! Keep reading!

Metro.Style: What was it like working with the D&G Beauty team? Did you collaborate on Heart's look?

Memay Francisco: Working with the Dolce&Gabbana Beauty team was an absolute dream and a pleasure. They are so meticulous and very passionate about luxury and it was amazing to see how they bring out the best in each look. Heart as a creative director has such a clear vision for each and every campaign that she does and it was about creating a look that was both glamorous and authentically her. That’s Heart—being true to herself. 

We definitely worked together to bring that vision to life and I’m just so happy with how that turned out. Her leadership and her input was a big key in creating her Dolce&Gabbana Beauty campaign and that it felt luxurious and real. The real Heart Evangelista. We kept it sophisticated and added some touches like dewy skin and powerful lip.

Metro.Style: What are the key D&G Beauty products our readers can buy to get this look? 

Memay Francisco: To recreate Heart’s look, I would definitely recommend a few standout pieces. The first one is the Everlift Luminizer, this is such a game-changer in achieving that dewy look. I haven’t done a matte finish for Heart’s looks the past year since I came back as one of her makeup artists and it makes her skin look more youthful. That’s one of the keys in making yourself look younger, vibrant, and more youthful. Then, for the lips, Heart wore the Everkiss Liquid Lip in 405 Devotion which is a classic red that has the perfect balance of warmth and depth. It’s not totally warm, it’s the perfect neutral red lip. It’s stunning, it’s classic, and such a bold statement lip that screams elegance and timelessness.

We also used the Dolce&Gabbana Eyeshadow—just the beige shimmer for the inner corners of her eyes. It’s also a great accent piece for your bag! The last makeup I would recommend from the Dolce&Gabbana line would be the That’s My Line! Eyeliner in shade no. 7. It was used to define the eyes with a rich and precise line. This is Heart Evangelista’s signature look—the eyeliner. She never goes out without any eyeliner, be it liquid or just a regular pencil or even eyeshadow, she would use it to smudge her eyes. For this we used a liquid liner for a very precise line to give that timeless classic look for the campaign.

Metro.Style: What's your biggest makeup trend for the holiday season?

Memay Francisco: This holiday season, I’m all about glowing skin and bold lips. It’s about looking back twenty years from now and still seeing that you did a timeless, classic makeup look. Think radiant, youthful-looking skin with a bit of extra highlight for that festive sparkle, which is very now. The Everlift Luminizer is definitely a must for achieving that glow for her makeup, and for the lips we’re seeing a lot of reds and berries which work perfectly for the holidays.
