Jessica Alba Shows Off Honest Beauty Faves
After just two months after it launched, Honest Beauty has launched an ad campaign featuring founder Jessica Alba showing off five of her favorite looks in a video. Honestly, it's fabulous. Consider the video a one-minute makeup tutorial that shows you how to go from morning to late night with ease — using Honest Beauty, of course.
The video shows Alba walking through five different events, each with a different Honest Beauty product in hand. From early mornings with her adorable daughter to late nights with the ladies, there's a different look inspired by the all-natural makeup company's offerings to take you through the day. According to the brand's site, the video is a part of the #LetsBeHonest campaign and focusses on five of Alba's favorite beauty looks that she wears in real life.
If all ads were like this, I might actually watch them on purpose. There's nothing better than the face of the company being, well, honest about her go-to products and encouraging others to do their makeup the same way she does. Alba also urges women to get on social media and make up a name for their favorite beauty trends, just like she does in the video. I'm getting ready to submit my "I work from home, but still keep it chic" style as we speak.
My favorite thing about the video is how the star walks us through all aspects of her life. She shows getting ready in the morning with her daughter Harper and even the inside of The Honest Co. building. Sure, the cameras might make for a more-glamorous-than-usual feel, but I completely appreciate the glimpse into her life.
Whether you're a fan of her "boss lady" blush or her "front row ready" lips, Alba shows just how versatile her beauty line can be with just a few simple products. Take a look at her go-tos before naming your own #LetsBeHonest look.
1. Almost Woke Up Like This
Between her glowing skin and her daughter putting on her lipgloss, there's no wonder that this is one of Alba's favorite daytime makeup looks.
She uses the Playful Kiss lipgloss to complete the look. Infused with pomegranate, this gloss is super hydrating and provides great shine, according to the site.

2. Like A Boss
Strutting through the office like a pro, Alba opts for a pink lip, heavy lashes, and creamy cheek for a day at the office. This makeup look screams "boss lady" for sure.
The secret behind this look is her crème blush, infused with raspberry, grape, and blackberry. Consider this product your daily dose of fruit for your face.

3. Sun Kissed After Sunset
With a little bit of gloss and glowing skin, this look is perfect for any occasion.
The company's luminizing powder is the secret behind Alba's flawless skin here. Available in three colors, this lightweight powder will bring your complexion to life.

4. Front Row Ready
Alba has shown off her bright lip at many events, so this comes as no surprise. The berry lip is quite the show-stopper.
Instead of offering traditional lipstick, Honest Beauty opts for a slightly lighter lip crayon.

5. Girls Night Out
I love that Alba goes for an all-natural night out makeup palette. With a little bit of liner and a nude gloss, this look is my favorite.
