Blake Lively May 2009 Allure Magazine Plus Free Stuff

Posted on Apr 18, 2009 at 8:29AM

cover of May 2009 Allure Magazine featuring Blake Lively

When Blake Lively, the Gossip Girl, arrived at her Allure May 2009 cover shoot, she requested music by Justin Timberlake on the set, and then proceeded to dance to it in a long, red dress by Donna Karan New York. 

Malige, who styled Blake's hair for the shoot, wanted to play with the texture.  He spritzed thickening spray on her dry hair and set three curlers around her crown.  He then rubbed texturizing cream throughout the entire head for an effect that was "disheveled but very sexy," he said.

Lively's cover look can be re-created with the following products:

  • Quadra Eye Shadow in Smoky Eyes
  • Automatic Liquid Eyeliner in Black
  • Soleil Tan de Chanel 4 Facettes Bronzing Powder
  • Chanel Hydrating Lip Treatment

Free Stuff:
