This is my take on the E/S at least until I get the actual e/s used on Ms. Knightley and the actual lipstick as well. I have seen all the products in person , so this is my perhaps cheaper alternative to create the same look.
I will list the products I used to create it, and then after list all the "Actual" products used on Ms. Knightley.
First off some photos to gauge on how the look , looks. With different lightening the look can look obviously darker or lighter. I do think through out the film they intensified her make up as her character became the duchess. It's a beautiful natural look , that would be best on fair to medium skintones , brown eyes especially but green or blue would work too.

I went off the second picture mainly...

Diorskin Nude Loose Powder in Light Beige

MAC Shell Color base, MAC concealer in NC20
Eyeshadows:
MAC: Concrete, Charcoal Brown, Mylar, Wedge, Modelette, satin taupe (can opt for mylar and one color or two colors with mylar like CB and concrete. Just any light/medium muted taupe colors with a matte, satin finish...Of course you can use all depending on how dark you want it, I thought the combo of all was lovely...)
Mascara - Any black/brown and black

Lancome 1 Powder Brush
How I applied the products
Face
I would uses a matte or semi-matte foundation .
I used Chanel Mat Lumiere in 0.5 Porcelain (My natural skintone). If you want that era's skin I would go a shade or so lighter in foundation than you normally do. Don't go too pale/white, we want to keep it modern still.
Any loose translucent powder or matching powder to set the foundation. I used what I had which was Diorskin Nude loose powder in 020 Light Beige.
I also used MAC's Mystery powder in light from the Baroque Boudoir collection (optional). I used just a typical big powder brush (Mine is a Lancome one). I also applied NC20 MAC studio finish concealer under my eyes and blemishes .
Cheeks:
I used Chanel Jous Contraste in 99 Rose Petale, which was the actual product that they used on Ms. Knightley. I used my 116 MAC Blush brush and built the color up to what I desired. I am not sure of a dupe for it. It is a light rosey pink with fine subtle shimmer. The shimmer doesn't translate onto the face. I applied it to the cheeks as it is in the photo, and used it lightly to contour around the jaw, chin, hairline . Optional : I wanted a highlight so I used a bit of MAC's Cream Colorbase in Shell on the top of the cheeks and on the bridge of the nose.
Eyes:
Since I don't have the actual shadow I made due with what I had in MAC colors. I know that the actual shadow is a medium taupe and the other color is a shimmery white highlight.
I applied my Painterly Paint pot. I applied "Mylar" to my entire lid with my MAC 217 blending brush. I find this brush for me applies lightly (and I naturally apply things heavy so lol). I then took "Charcoal Brown" and lightly swept it over the lid and slightly up past the crease like she has her shadow applied. I then lightly took "Concrete" and did the same thing and blended the colors together. I then used "Sating Taupe" lightly in the crease and blended "Charcoal Brown" over it. I took "Modelette" and "Wedge" on just my lid to lighten the color , and used a bit of mylar along the upper lash line. Some of the colors are optional. I would say mainly "Charcoal Brown," "Concrete" and "Mylar" are the main ones.
I took my 266 angle brush and dipped it into "Charcoal Brown" "Concrete" and applied it lightly on the top and lower lash line and smudged it.
Then I took a tiny amount of Chanel's blush in 99 Rose Petale and washed it over the entire lid to blend (Like Keira's Make Up Artist did).
For Mascara I used Maybelline Volume 3x in Black/Brown , with one coat of diorshow blackout mascara . I believe you don't want super black lashes for this look, unless you want that.
Brows:
I darkened my already medium brown brows with MAC's Coffee eyeliner pencil. Her brows are pretty dark for most of the film. This is optional.
Lips:
I used Benefit's Misbehavin' which is a dark plum/brown color, along with Benefit's Good to go which is a lighter plum/brown, and a bit of MAC's Capricious . I applied it with my fingers to create a stain look. I think the main color you want is a plum color so Benefit's Misbehavin' or Mac's Capricious would work. Using all three is optional. Ms. Knightley's color is a dark plum color, and they applied it lightly with the fingers to create a stain look.
The colors and products they actually used on Ms. Knightley
“In brief, I would describe Keira's look as a soft, muted, pretty and
ethereal version of late 18th century make-up based on paintings by
Joshua Reynolds and Mary Cosway - prolific painters of the period.
It's about finding a 'middle ground' on what would otherwise be a
garish make-up period,” said make-up designer Daniel Phillips.
*As of Oct. 15, 2008, Keira Knightley is a spokesmodel for Chanel Coco Mademoiselle. Makeup411.com chose to run this breakdown because it does not feature only Chanel products.
