Stay-at-home orders have given us plenty of time to improve our makeup skills and the same is true for celebrities. Kelly Ripa admitted she's using her daughter's self-tanner to boost her complexion for tapings and Tina Fey's getting virtual lessons from her makeup artist. It looks like the only person still getting their makeup done is Eva Mendes. Plot twist: The glam artists are her own children.

Mendes shared a selfie on Instagram of the extraordinary and colorful look her daughters Esmeralda Amada Gosling (five years old) and Amanda Lee Gosling (four years old) created for her.

Mendes captioned the photo, "They've won ❤️." At first glance, it looks like the two girls just painted their mom's face with any color they could find in her kit — there are both neutral and bright pigments marked up all over their mom's face, which you would expect from kids their age. They even added two different blush shades on each cheek as well as purple lipstick. However, they didn't do such a bad job with the eye shadow. The electric blue shade is done pretty neatly and it complements Mendes's brown eyes.

Fans are predictably delighted. The comments are flooded with remarks like, "Amazing, Eva! so beautiful and colorful portrait!" and "prettiest canvas!!! Please post more pics of their masterpieces 😍😇." The actor doesn't often share her private life with her daughters and husband Ryan Gosling, but when she does we really appreciate it. It's so nice to see these sweet snippets of their life together, especially now with so much chaos in the world.

Mendes's daughters are very young, but we see a future in makeup artistry. After all, they nailed every spring color trend in one look.
