I think it’s so cool when a movie star shows up to a premier looking fresh and natural.  There is something so striking in being confident enough to let your inner beauty shine, and not cover up your face with half a pound of makeup.  I know it seems contradictory for me to say this, since my job is to apply….half a pound of makeup!  Surprisingly, it is actually a lot harder to use a light hand, and create a natural glow.  Anyone can slap on some foundation, and false eyelashes and look gorgeous.  It takes a lot of chutzpah to flaunt it on the red carpet (under all those unforgiving flashbulbs!) with a soft, natural, clean face.

This leads me to the very funny, and extremely smart Reese Witherspoon. I have always been a fan, and now even more so.  She absolutely looked flawless and fresh faced at the Monsters and Aliens premiere.
