Celebrity Inspiration: Minimal Makeup

We here at Beautylish are huge makeup junkies but that doesn't mean we can't appreciate fresh faces and natural beauty. Celebrities are constantly starting trends with bright lipsticks, smoky shadows, and sexy cat eyes, but they also can be inspiring when it comes how minimal their makeup is. Checkout the stars who dared to go bare on the red carpet.

JESSICA BIEL

Jessica’s dewy complexion complements her lush couture gown. A nude lip keeps the focus on her glowing skin.
