How To: Rachel's Relaxed Makeup from "The OC"

BellaSugar — Thu, 17 May 2007 07:51:45 -0700

All week, FabSugar is paying tribute to the fashion of "The OC," so I thought I'd join the party with a few posts about the notable hair and beauty looks featured on the indulgent SoCal teen drama.

On Monday, I told you how to get Mischa Barton hair, and today, we'll be learning how to recreate Rachel Bilson's relaxed makeup look. Though her face looks flawlessly fresh and anything but overdone, you will need some makeup to appear this un-made-up. For product suggestions and a step-by-step guide, read more

Face: Badass Bilson is all about a clean-looking face. To look youthful and not overly made up, all you'll need is a bit of concealer and a tinted moisturizer with SPF.
Cheeks: To re-create her sun kissed look, I would start with a basic bronzer and then add a peachy cream blush to the apples of your cheeks.
Eyes: If you look closely, you'll notice that there are two different shadows on Bilson's eyes: a highlighter and a mocha brown color. Try Stila Eye Shadow Pan in Puck, which can be worn lightly during the day and layered for evening for a more dramatic effect.
Next, line your upper lashes only with a deep brown eye pencil, like Laura Mercier Eye Pencil in Special Brown. Lastly, use one coat of black lengthening mascara for definition.
Brows: See how Bilson's brows are the stand-out feature in the natural look? It's imperative to get a brow shaping a few times a year to keep your face properly framed. If you have light brows, use Anastasia Brow Powder Duo on Ash Blonde or Medium Ash to fill them in. Just go easy: The goal of this look is to make it look effortless.
Lips: Her lips look naturally pink, light, and sheer. As you know I am a huge fan of Lipstick Queen's Oxymoron Lip Gloss, and this matte formula is a perfect choice for this look.

The O.C. Countdown!

PopSugar — Wed, 01 Nov 2006 00:00:42 -0800

The season premiere of The O.C. is just one day away! This year Rachel Bilson steps up to leading lady now that Mischa is gone. We can't wait to see what they have planned for Summer and the whole gang this season. Here's more:

The episode, titled “The Avengers,” finds the gang adjusting to life without Marissa’s smiling face, sweeps-season lesbianism and chair-in-the-pool-tossing ways. Without her rampant materialism as an influence, Summer has reinvented herself as a environmental activist (egad!), while Ryan is going back to his choker-wearing, bad-boy ways and Taylor finds refuge in the diner so no one will know that she’s not in Paris.

The real question is - will The O.C. be the same without Mischa Barton? What will Ryan do without her - oh right - he'll be some sort of cagefighter. We just want to see our favorite couple back on the small screen. If you absolutely can't wait until Thursday to find out, you can watch it now on myspace. Call us old fashioned but we appreciate season premiere nights so we're waiting - that means no spoilers in comments people.

Lots more pics of Rachel Bilson looking adorable as usual so read more

Summer's Over for Rachel

PopSugar — Wed, 16 Aug 2006 01:36:35 -0700

Rachel Bilson has returned to work on the set of The OC. She took a break for a snack and some smiles. She also went to check out The Devil Wears Prada with friends. We like Mischa but not nearly as much as we heart Rachel. We have such a girl crush on her. We even want to know everything about what she is wearing. If Summer was killed off The OC then we would not even consider tuning in this season.

Luckily we get to see her on the big screen with Zach Braff soon too. They star in The Last Kiss which comes out September 15th. You can click here to watch Zach's video podcasts with cute Rachel. Lots more pics of Rachel on the set and on the streets so read more

Little Rachel Riding Hood

Molly — Thu, 08 Feb 2007 10:58:43 -0800

Awwww, a Thursday Rachel Bilson treat. She was looking adorable (AS USUAL, sorry, yelling again, love her) at LAX this week. There are only 3 episodes left of the OC (sob*), so she better be staying close to LA for all the finale parties...at which she and Adam will reunite over their shared loss of the show. Ah, a girl can dream, right? Some good news, though, on the OC front is that SOAPnet has bought the rights to show all four seasons of reruns starting in April. A daily Seth/Summer fix? Sign me up.

*I say that like I still watch religiously, but apparently I can't even commit to one show a week. I have no one to blame but myself for the show's demise.

The OC Is Over Just Like Adam and Rachel

PopSugar — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 00:36:30 -0800

First Adam and Rachel split and now the OC is canceled. We were just getting used to the fact that we would not see Summer and Seth in love in real life, but we at least looked forward to watching them on the small screen each week. Now FOX has taken that away from us as well. Oh how will we get our Bilson fix? Someone please give this girl her own show and STAT!

We knew something was wrong when Mischa was missing this season. Perhaps this is why she was so sad yesterday. As for the official news, thankfully the rest of the season will air through February, and it looks like the drama will go out in style with plenty of excitement including a proposal, a pregnancy, and someone coming out. Oh it sounds too good to be true. For more info check it out here.

I Want This Wardrobe: The O.C., Season 3

FabSugar — Wed, 16 May 2007 11:02:22 -0700

Season Three of The O.C. was the pinnacle for the show. Marissa gets kicked out of school for her shooting incident from Season Two, she then eventually goes off the deep end and turns to drugs & alcohol and relations with bad boy, Volchok. Kristin is recovering from her bouts with the bottle while Julie falls in love with Summer's dad - go figure. Adorable little blondie Anna & slightly annoying, but somewhat endearing, Taylor add comic relief. We re-meet Marissa's quickly grown up sassy little sis, Kaitlin. Also, Summer's style really evolves and she shows us her full beauty potential. All of this leading up to the foursome graduating, all from Harbor (yay!). Then, just when we thought they were home free and off to college, Marissa meets the ultimate doom and dies in a car accident. I for one, was totally crushed. On to the clothes, for which there were many cute ones this season!

I Want This Wardrobe: The O.C., Season 1

FabSugar — Mon, 14 May 2007 11:00:22 -0700

We thought with Summer right around the corner it would be fun to put together a wardrobe tribute for a guilty pleasure TV show that took place in a sublimely sunny part of the world: The O.C.. I for one was smitten by all the teen angst, with money, drama and the seemingly beautiful people. I wanted to hate Marissa for her unreal good looks and mood swings and Ryan for his violent temper and smoldering brow - but I just couldn't. And the parents were so cool, and beautiful too, albeit they had their own intriguing skeletons in their walk-in closets.

The O.C. set trends. Marissa inspired teenage, and er, twenty-somethings, to want to carry a Chanel handbag as their school book bag. Summer had a cute-as-a-button boho-California style that spawned my Marc by Marc Jacobs obsession and taught us all how to layer wisely. Kirsten and Julie had MILF written all over them. And, we all came to appreciate the cool dork in the Penguin polos: Seth. Without further ado...here is Season One. Stay tuned tomorrow for Season Two!

Season One

On Summer:
Charles Nolan Dotted Voile Blouse, $230.
Edun Monarch Bootcut Stretch Jeans, $150.
Jerome Dreyfuss Momo Disco Bag, $370.

On Marissa:
Old Navy Lace Trim Cami, $13.
J. Crew City-Fit Vintage Ripstop Cropped Cargos, $40.

I hope you have been enjoying our O.C. wardrobe tribute posts! Alas, all good things come to an end, as did The O.C. after a mere four seasons.
