Olivia Wilde’s GQ Style

Olivia Wilde heated up the pages of GQ magazine when she posed for a fabulous swimsuit photo shoot. Her swimsuits were natural and hot which matches her personal style to a T! In magazine interviews Wilde has said her beauty routine is low key and decidedly simple.

Olivia Wilde Skin Care

Wilde’s skin care routine is simple. She recommends washing and moisturizing your face religiously and uses tried and true drugstore brands to do so. Her favorites are Cetaphil and CeraVe. Her biggest skincare tip off is to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. She’ll use anything around to keep her skin soft and supple.

To keep your skin clean and fresh she recommends exfoliating on a regular basis. She says she knows a product is working to cleanse her skin if her face tingles from it. Her favorite way to tingle is to use Kate Somerville exfoliator. Celebrity’s swear by ExfoliKate by Somerville.

Olivia Wilde Makeup

She’s an ambassador for Revlon so Wilde loves their makeup products as number one. Her typical makeup is rather natural with the exception of her eyes which she plays up. She likes a soft and natural facial color and highlights her cheek bones with a slightly orange blush to add life. A nude color lip with a slight orange tone is also her favorite. She sculpts her eyebrow into a fairly pronounced arch and to make herself stand out even more she uses plenty of black mascara, black eyeliner and false eye lashes.

If you want to try and copy Olivia’s girl next door makeup with smoldering eyes then try a dark gray or black eyeliner on the eyelash line. Then use a shimmery steel gray, almost black eyeshadow on the eye lids and smudge. Try the Revlon Illuminance Creme Shadow Precious Metal pallete for a glossy look that is more shiny than powder. Accent the inner corners of the eyes with a shimmering blueish gray shade.

This mixed metal, smokey eyed look can be rather other-worldly so to tone it down use a basic brown eye shadow in the eyelid crease and very, very natural makeup on the rest of the face. Nude lips will make the eyes dazzle even more and with plenty of mascara you’ll be smoldering for a party or event.

As a spokes-model for Revlon Olivia has tried all of Revlon’s products. Her favorite is the Revlon mascara. In an Allure magazine interview she said Revlon mascara makes her lashes look perfect as though they’ve been photo-shopped.

Olivia Wilde Hair

Wilde loves headbands. When the TRON star is looking for an easy solution she dons a cool stretchy thin headband in black, the kind you pick up at the drugstore. For a quick hair-do she throws her hair up into a casual bun or up-twist and decorates with a thin headband to make it look as though it’s an intentional hair style.

For a great shampoo and conditioner line Olivia recommends either Bumble and Bumble Brilliantine or celebrity favorite Kerastase shampoo and conditioner.

Olivia Wilde Workout Routine

For exercising Olivia sticks to the basics such as yoga. Her more serious from of exercise is Ashtanga yoga, and for fun she likes to Hula hoop.

Olivia Wilde Fashion

Olivia has perfected a casual chic style while still keeping on top of the latest fashion trends. Her fashion sense has come a long way since her days on the the OC. Wilde wears fashionable clothes on the red carpet but in everyday life she adopts a girl-next-door look. Obviously her casual style is a #1 hit with men, seeing as she ended atop the Maxim’s Hot 100 list a few years back.

Lately Olivia’s becoming more high fashion and designer conscious. She’s been photographed on the red carpet wearing every thing from Gucci to Monique Lhuillier dresses and Cartier gems. To copy her red carpet look try a sexy black dress with lace cutouts, art-deco faux platinum and diamond bracelets and a small black clutch. Wear nude facial makeup, plain glossed lips and focus on making the eyes stand out with smoldering precious metal shadows and lots of mascara.

Olivia Wilde Beauty Tip

Olivia says to keep good eye-drops in your bag for those 16-hour days. They’ll wake you up fast and make your eyes look refreshed and cool. To keep her diet on the up and up and her weight under control, Olivia is a bona fide vegan.
