Eva Mendes looked a little worse for the wear last evening at the Venice Film Festival.
The normally impeccable 35 year old actress hit the red carpet with some major under eye puffiness, exacerbated by the concealer and foundation she caked on to cover it up.
Whether her baggage was the result of the 12 hour flight from Los Angeles to Venice or an all night bender, we'll never know.
But we do know that there are beauty tricks to fake a full night of zzz's. Check out these tips from What Not To Wear's makeup expert Carmindy on wearing makeup that'll wake you up.

Under Eye Concealer
First, cover dark shadows with under eye concealer. Apply it directly to the dark spot, at the inside corner of the eyes.

Shimmer Under Browbone
To visually open up the eyes, slick a little highlighter on the brow bones just beneath the eye brows. This makeup artist trick draws light to the area, making your eyes look more awake.

Shimmer At Inner Corners
Sticking with the shimmer, now apply it to the inner corners of the eyes. Another light trick, this tactic draws light to the inside of the eye, erasing redness and making the eyes appear more open.

Blue Eye Liner
Now, apply a navy blue eye liner to the inner rims of the lower eye lids. Use a waterproof, pencil liner. The blue pigment makes the whites of the eyes appear clearer and whiter, and offsets any redness at the lower lids.

Pink Blush
Brighten the face with a dusting of pink blush high on the apples, just beneath the eyes. This will give you a fresh flushed look, like you just came in from a jog.
