Eva Mendes may be a big Hollywood star, but that doesn't mean she won't fangirl out for her biggest role models, including one of her closest former co-stars, Salma Hayek.

Mendes, who co-starred alongside Hayek in the 2003 shoot 'em up action flick, "Once Upon A Time In Mexico," crept into the comments of one of Hayek's latest Instagram posts to shower the legendary actress with love and pointed out a few reasons why she is a huge fan of the star.

Mendes dropped the praise after 53-year-old Hayek shared a beautiful, fresh-faced photo to her social media feed revealing a makeup-free look. Hanging by a cactus, Hayek didn't add much of a caption but let the photo do all the speaking.

The longtime partner of actor Ryan Gosling couldn't control her reaction and dipped into Hayek's feed to show the love:

"Look at THAT FACE! Esa cara. La mas bella. Ayyyyy Dios! And you have the corazon to match that face. Pure beauty ❤️ pura belleza."

FYI, corazón refers to the heart, courage and strength in someone -- something Hayek obviously embodies to the max.
