Rachel Bilson looked simply stunning at the recent premiere of her new movie Jumper. While the movie looks like a bit of a mess – (sci-fi time travel with Darth Vader himself, Hayden Christensen, as the love interest? umm, think I'll pass...) – she's one of my favorite stylish celebs of the moment. She never looks overdone and knows that less is often more. So, if you're feeling so inclined to bring on the Bilson, use these tips to get her smouldering Jumper look:
Rachel always looks glowy and healthy (yet not overly bronzed or made-up), so you want to prep the skin to even it out a bit, but not hide your natural complexion. Use a tinted moisturizer such as Duwop's Revolotion Face (one of my absolute faves). It's infused with skin luminizers that give a radiant, natural look with a satin matte finish. Next up, add a hit of soft color to your cheeks with a neutrally blush such as Lancome Blush Subtil in Cedar Rose, a pinky brown that's universally flattering.

This look is all about Rachel's lovely dark-brown eyes, so play them up with a browny-black smokey eye. Start by rimming the top and bottom lids with a black eye pencil such as Dior Crayon Eyeliner in Black. To soften the line, using an eyeshadow brush, go over it with a dark-brown shadow such as Earth Brown from YSL's Eye Shadow Duo in Golden Sand/Earth Brown and blend the shadow into the crease. Use the lighter shade in the compact from the crease on up to the brow to blend the darker shade into light, so it looks seamless. Follow up with a few coats of your favorite black mascara on the top lashes only. Finish with a slick of Laura Mercier's Stickgloss in Brown Sugar, a browny-pink balmy lipcolor, on the lips. Now go save Darth from himself.

I've never been a fan of Rachel Bilson, but I can't deny that she's gorgeous!
Thanks so much for the product recos to get the look - I wonder if my MAC N collection products will help me look as gorgeous as Rachel does!! :)
Hey Sugarshock, thanks for the rec's for Rachel Bilson's look. I agree that her makeup is pretty but never overpowers her look, so people can see her.
Nilla - I've loved her since her days as Summer on the O.C., but I guess she's not to everyone's taste!
I think the MAC N collection would be great for this look - the black eye pencil and dark brown shadow would totally work. I just felt like mixing up the product recos a bit, since I seem to cover MAC so often! ;)
