Alexis Bledel

The look I'm doing today is a look inspired by a picture I saw of actress Alexis Bledel. You guys might now her as Rory from the Gilmore Girls and she was also in the movie Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.



Well I saw this picture of her and I thought she looked beautiful so I wanted to try it out.
Alexis's best feature is her eyes and she plays them up in this look but in a simple way. She used very little eye shadow on her eyes and instead focused on thickening her lashline with liner and false lashes. That made her gorgeous blue eyes pop out. She kept her skin fresh and natural. You can see all her freckles (which I love). To get a sheer foundation application like this, you can use either a tinted moisturizer or a very light foundation or you can even just use concealer on problem areas and thats it. By letting your natural skin shine through, its makes your look young, fresh and beautiful.
She used bronzer on her cheeks and shimmer on her face to make her skin glow.
For her eyebrows, she just brushed them clean without filling them in.
Her lips are a gorgeous fushia pink which complement her eyes beautifully.
