Kristen Stewart's high fashion-yet-nonchalant style gets her noticed and placed directly at the top of best dressed lists very frequently. But it's her signature smoky eyes that helped land her latest major career milestone — face of Chanel makeup. Today it was announced the the actress will be the face (or eyes) of the brand's upcoming campaign, focused on their stunning and super-wearable shadows.

Karl Lagerfeld must have noticed Kristen's ability to perfectly diffuse a smoky eye (and use every single shade of a palette) while working with her recently. She was the face of both the 2013 Metiers d’Art Paris-Dallas and 2016 Metiers d’Art Paris in Rome campaigns, and the 2015 spring/summer eyewear collection. She even starred in Lagerfeld’s short film Once and Forever, playing Gabrielle (Coco) Chanel herself.

Lagerfeld’s muse has been the face of a beauty campaign before for Balenciaga’s Florabotancia fragrance. But it’s her dazzling green eyes, bold power brows, and certain je ne sais quoi that will be celebrated in the upcoming Chanel makeup portraits, shot by famed fashion photographer Mario Testino. And even though the actress is keeping herself extremely busy with the four (!!) films she has scheduled for this year, we’re wishing and hoping that she also comes out with some eye makeup tutorials. If anyone could teach us, it’s her.
