California Beauty: Jessica Alba
For the recent premiere of “Sin City: A Dame To Kill For,” Hollywood starlet Jessica Alba hit the red carpet in Los Angeles in a striking blue dress by Versace, strappy heels by Monique Lhuillier, and makeup by Chanel. Here, makeup artist Monika Blunder takes us through the look.
“Jessica wore a very form-fitting, royal blue dress, so I didn’t want the make up to compete with this amazing dress,” says Blunder. “My inspiration was a sexy, modern Brigitte Bardot with a gorgeous winged eyeliner and a nude lip.”
