Eva Longoria knows how to find her light.

The actress and director stunned her followers in what appeared to be a gorgeous yellow patterned robe, as her signature hoop earrings and brown locks drape over her shoulders.

"The sun was trying to steal my shot," she captioned the photo.

Naturally, fans were ogling over Longoria's beauty and effervescence in no time at all.

"Always gorgeous,” one follower wrote while another added, "Thought that was just your own radiant vibes."

"The sun can’t compete with you!" an admirer wrote. One person said, "Nothing could steal your shot."

Of course, Longoria is no stranger to using her platform to show off her confidence as well as to empower others.

Last month, the multi-hyphenated artist reflected on her success while encouraging other Latinx artists to tap into their potential.

"Looking back at this photo really has me reflecting on all the work I've had to do to get here, being a chicana directing powerful movies about and for my culture," she began her caption.

"From doing more than what was expected of me (acting), pushing back, being told no, being excluded from conversations because it wasn't where I 'belonged,'" she continued. "It hasn't been an overnight success as y'all know. But here I am, despite all of that, doing what I love to do and you can too!! Whatever that is. Because if this Texicana from Corpus Christi can, you can too."

In September, the mogul explained to Yahoo Entertainment that her Mexican heritage, specifically Tejana culture, inspires all areas of her life.

"Being Mexican is who I am," she said at the time. "For me, it exudes in everything that I do every day from how I style my hair, to putting on my lip liner, to putting on my hoops, to what I make for breakfast, how I have my café con leche, how I drive. It seeps into every aspect of my life."

The activist has also shined a light on the issues impacting Latinx artists in Hollywood.

"The problem is when you don't have a person of color within your community, if your neighbors aren't Latino, the only reference you have of us is the news. And that doesn't do a very good job of portraying who we are," she said to Yahoo Entertainment. "And so, representation in TV, in film, in music, in art, it matters because it educates the community about who we are."
