Blake Lively always looks gorgeous and so can you once you style your hair like hers. This is a formal hairstyle that is quick and easy for you to style. Make sure when you curl your hair that you curl them tightly in the beginning so that by the end of the night, you will still have curls in your hair that create life and movement in your hair. The natural-looking highlights help to soften her hair and brighten it up, which is a bonus.

When it comes to your makeup application for this look, you want to make sure that your makeup matches the event. So if it is a day formal event, you want to do a gorgeous day makeup application finished off with a glossy lip. If it is an evening look, you want to do a smokey eye finished with naturally looking false lashes. The lashes will make your eyes pop! Finish off your makeup with a pastel or nude lip and you are ready for your event! Whichever makeup application you do, you want to make sure that you contour and highlight your neck and face area to ensure that you create the illusion of a perfect oval face shape.

Styling Steps

1. Part to the Right

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your right eye and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even right part. A side part is great for longer face shapes because it creates the illusion of width.

2. Curl Mid-lengths and Ends with a Curling Iron

Take a small section of hair and place the ends at the base of your curling iron barrel and then wrap the hair up around the barrel until you reach your mid-lengths. Hold the hair for 5 to 10 seconds and then release the hair by unwinding the strands backwards.

3. Apply Hairspray

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
