Recs for this pretty/fresh/clean look?

My friend has a big event coming up at her church and asked me to do her makeup for the event. She is half Caucasian, half Filipina and absolutely GORGEOUS. Obviously since it will be a church event, red lips or smokey eyes are out of the question. So I found inspiration from Olivia Hussey as Juliet Capulet in the 1968 version of Romeo + Juliet. There was something so effortless fresh and gorgeous about her look. Her features are beautiful and she has a full brow just like my friend has and very expressive eyes. Any recs to create a similar look?

The only difference is that my friend's skin tone is deeper (because she's half Filipina) and she has brown eyes (instead of blue, like Olivia Hussey).

Here are some photos of the look I am trying to recreate:

Which part are you looking for? Eyes/lips/cheeks?

For eyes I would use Urban Decay Sin, and depending if she has Caucasian type crease or Asian double lid or single lid, Mushroom (also UD) for the crease or lash line emphasis color. A very thin line of pencil liner like UD or MAC feline blended out with an espresso color, and ridiculous long lashes with a good mascara.

For cheeks something super neutral ie. Blushbaby. Freckletone or Creme d' Nude for lips with C-through lipgloss or if you want something slightly pinker, maybe Nymphette.
