When it comes to her beauty routine, Jennifer Garner keeps things refreshingly simple. In a world where many celebrities use makeup as a form of self-expression, the star of Peppermint has found her own way to shine by embracing her natural look. At 46, Jen is all about authenticity, and she recently opened up to People about why she feels happiest when she looks like herself.
“I’m the happiest and most comfortable when I just look like myself,” she told the magazine. For Jennifer, keeping it simple means a few swipes of mascara on her lashes and a touch of blush on her cheeks. “I’ll even use the blush on my lids,” she added with a laugh. “That’s all I need. The less makeup I have to wear, the more of my own skin I can see, and the happier I am.” Her approach is a testament to the idea that sometimes, less really is more.
Embracing Natural Beauty
While Jennifer Garner loves to keep things minimal when it comes to her own makeup routine, her 13-year-old daughter, Violet, is eager to experiment with beauty products. Violet, the eldest of Jennifer’s three children with ex-husband Ben Affleck, is at that exciting age where she’s starting to explore her own style. Jen admits that while she encourages Violet to have fun with makeup, she also sets boundaries to ensure her daughter stays age-appropriate.

“She’s really smart about it,” Jennifer shared. “She knows, ‘Okay, now I’m leaving the house, so I need to check with my mom because chances are she’s gonna make me take this lip off.’ And you know what? I do!” Jen, who is also mom to Seraphina, 10, and Samuel, 7, explained that it’s all part of the growing-up process. “So that’s kind of where we are with it,” she added. “It’s a process. Growing up is a process.”
Raising Teenagers: The Challenges and Joys
As a mom, Jennifer knows firsthand how tricky it can be to navigate the world of adolescence. “It’s just hard to be an adolescent,” she admitted. For Violet, who has grown up surrounded by the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, the lines between reality and fantasy can sometimes blur. “I think it’s probably extra complicated when you literally were nursed in the makeup chair as an infant, and have grown up sitting in your mom’s lap while she got her makeup done your whole life,” Jennifer explained.
Despite the challenges, Jennifer remains committed to being a guiding force in her children’s lives. “My kids know two versions of me,” she said. “They know the version that I see in the mirror right now that looks crazy, and it’s what they see 90 percent of the time.” Through it all, Jennifer continues to balance her career, her family, and her own sense of self, proving that she’s not just a talented actress but an amazing mama too.
