It's hard to overstate the allure of Swedish actress Hedda Stiernstedt until you've seen her on the hit television period drama, The Restaurant. As the daughter of a wealthy Stockholm family caught up in a forbidden upstairs-downstairs romance, she is nothing short of spellbinding. On December 25, the feverishly popular series—which has catapulted Stiernstedt to international stardom in just a few short years—returns for its final season. Ahead of the highly anticipated episode, Stiernstedt sits down to talk off-duty beauty secrets and (spoiler alert!) dashes off a quick makeup tutorial on how to adapt The Restaurant's lush matte red lips for real life using the Lip Suede compact.

From the little jar of cream behind the mega-watt skin to the juicy touch she adds to her favorite wine-stained lip color, she proves she's got the 'can't look away' presence of a Hollywood heavyweight. Watch her transform with a few swipes of bold crimson color in today's episode—and trust us, it's enough to inspire a full binge watching session on Amazon Prime this weekend.
