Jessica Alba has played roles in movies such as Dark Angel, Sin City, Fantastic Four, Into the Blue and Idle Hands. Maxim Magazine voted her as one of the sexiest people in the media. She is known for her effortless and natural looks. Here is how to get the Jessica Alba look at home.
How To Get The Jessica Alba Look: Jessica's Makeup
1. Start with cleansed and moisturized skin. Allow time for your skin to soak up the moisturizer. The moisturizer will act as a primer and help your foundation glide on smoothly and stay put longer. A healthy skin care routine is important in achieving any look. Apply a sheer layer of foundation to create a nude look, working outward toward your hairline. Select a foundation that matches your skin tone. Going too light on the shade will make you look pale and too dark will look fake. If necessary, apply concealer before applying foundation.
2. To create a "glow," apply a cream bronzer (using a brush) to your cheekbones, chin, bridge of your nose, and along the hairline (try gloMinerals gloBronze in Sunkiss - $38.50 ). Bronzer is every makeup artist's magic wand in creating appearance of high cheekbones and a straighter nose. Jessica Alba's nose is slender and straight. To create this illusion, apply a darker shade of bronzer on each side of the nose to give a shading effect. The key here is to blend, blend, and when in doubt, blend a little more.
3. Apply translucent powder into a puff and gently press into the T-Zone and slightly over face. Applying some translucent powder (with a small brush) down the bridge of your nose will give the appearance of a straighter nose. Remove excess with a large brush.
4. Enhance the apples of the cheeks with a sheer pink blush. Blend color back and up to the hairline. To get Jessica Alba's youthful glow, use a petal pink blush on the apple of your cheeks. Use a darker shade (slightly plumpish-pink) blush and apply from your hairline (by the ear) to the outer edge of the apple of your cheeks. The trick here is to get some powder on your brush, press it against the region by your ear and pull it towards your cheek. Apply less pressure as you work towards the cheek. This will give you the appearance of higher cheekbones.

How To Get Jessica Alba's Eyes
1. Use a dark-colored cake eyeshadow (see Choosing The Best Eyeshadow For Your Eye Color). Lightly moisten it and using a flat liner brush, press the eye shadow into the eyelash base on top and bottom.
2. Use a neutral cream eye shadow and apply it to the center of the eyelid. Blend outward.
3. Line inner rim of eye with a dark colored pencil. Using liquid eyeliner can add a dramatic effect, but liquid eyeliner can be difficult to apply. It will take practice to learn how to apply liquid eyeliner properly. If you have smaller eyes you can create a fuller look by applying lighter shades of eye shadow and using false eyelashes.
How To Get Jessica Alba's Lips
Jessica Alba is blessed with natural full lips. Here's how to get yours. Line lips with a nude-colored pencil. Blend to cover lips. Top with a sheer gloss. If you don't have full lips, referred to the "How To Get Anglina Jolie Full Lips" entry to learn how to pump up your lips. To achieve youthful Jessica Alba lips, use lipsticks that are of the nude shades.

How To Get Jessica Alba's Hairstyle
Jessica Alba's hairstyle always looks natural and effortless. To achieve the sexy waves below, try the following suggestions:
1.Wash hair with a volumizing shampoo and conditioner. Adding volume to your hair can create a healthier and slimmer look.
2. Apply some hair mousse to the root of your hair. Blow-dry damp hair with your head turned upside down to create fullness and volume at the roots.
3. Once hair is dry, add some large velcro rollers, or use a large curling tong, to divide off small, random sections for soft, wavy, loose curls. Change direction of curling to create natural, glamourous curls.
4. Once hair is curled, style with either a brush or your fingers and then add a touch of hairspray to mold the style into shape. It is important that you allow your hair to cool completely before you fix it up. A small curling iron is great to fix up the ends.
Styling tip: When using velcro rollers, heat them up under your blow-dryer for added staying power and curl.
