Jennifer Garner's Beauty Look Hasn't Changed Much in Nearly 2 Decades — and That's a Good Thing

In 2000, at the TV Guide Awards, Jennifer clipped her short hair back away from her face and wore a lip color that seemingly matched her dress.

Jennifer looked like the girl next door at the 2002 MTV Movie Awards with her pin-straight hair, middle part, and simple makeup look.

Jennifer pulled her short light brown back off her face with a middle part at the 2002 Golden Globes. She gave her lips a glossy finish and wore dark eyeliner on her eyes.

Jennifer kept it ultra classy at the 2003 Golden Globes with her pretty updo and soft pink lip.

For the 2005 Emmy Awards, Jennifer changed it up a little with a lighter shade of brown in her hair and a messy updo. She kept her makeup as her usual though — simple and classy.

At the 2006 Hollywood Film Festival, Jen rocked long beachy waves and a natural makeup look.

For the 2007 Critics' Choice Awards, Jennifer swept her hair back but left a few face-framing pieces down and wore a soft pink lip.

At the premiere of The Kingdom, Jennifer wore her long hair in loose curls and swept her bangs slightly off to the side. Instead of going for a lot of makeup, Jennifer relied on a tanned look with a pop of pink blush.

Jennifer's beach waves fit right in at the LA premiere of Invention of Lying in 2009. Her natural-looking highlights — and bangs – framed her face and set off her smoky eye.
