alexis bledel

by Maria Cataldo on Jul 30, 2008
Porcelain beauty Alexis Bledel (Gilmore Girls) is almost too beautifully delicate to be real, so we figure the only way we're getting anywhere near that standard is by stealing her makeup. She's reprising her role as Lena in the sequel to The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and showed up at the premiere looking hot to trot!

Get her look: 

Gorgeous skin like Alexis' doesn't need much help, but a good foundation is a must for any red-carpet look. A powdered mineral foundation provides a nice sheer coverage that's easy to build up without looking caked on. A touch of mousse concealer under the eyes completes the base.

Keep the eyes simple with a slick line of eyeliner on the upper lid only (thickness entirely up to you!) and two-three coats of mascara. Make sure to add a single coat to bottom lashes too for maximum impact.

Lastly, add some colour. Use hot pink matte lipstick to copy Alexis' bright pout, making sure to apply some lip balm first to counteract the drying effect of matte lippy. A matching lipliner keeps the colour from straying too far (and we really mean this - you should never use a lipstick without a liner!)

Apricot blush on the apples of your cheeks (the rounded part when you smile) adds a nice complement to the fuschia lips.

Maybelline (available from your local chemist) have some great pearly hot pinks. If you're after a matte fuscia - try your local Napoloeon Perdis makeup counter. Hope that helps!

What other brands have a good hot pink lipstick, maybe something a little cheaper than MAC?
