Wouldn't it be fun to walk a red carpet? Think about it: the glam, the photos... plus: you (usually) get to wear some kind of evening gown. Truly a dream. While I can't make all your red carpet dreams come true, I can let you in on a seriously simple (and affordable) premiere-worthy makeup look.

Earlier this month, Jennifer Garner, 51, delivered a huge slay at the premiere for her new Apple TV+ series The Last Thing He Told Me. She was absolutely glowing in a white Gabriella Hearst dress (which showed off her super-sculpted arms). Obviously, Jen always looks 10/10, but this look was next-level chic.

Luckily for you, Women's Health caught up with the mastermind behind part of Jennifer's glammed-up radiance, celebrity makeup artist Kara Yoshimoto Bua—so you too can be red carpet-ready, all with products for about $50 total (!!).

Yup. Jen's entire look was achieved using mostly Neutrogena products—a longtime favorite of Jennifer and Kara. Kara loves how naturally the brand's products—like the multi-use makeup stick and the Hydroboost concealer—go on the skin. Her personal fave, though, is the Hydroboost water gel for moisturizing.

"I don't like [faces] to look like makeup is on there. I want it to be natural and integrated into the skin tones and the skin texture mostly," Kara says. "I love products that help create a canvas that brings out the the glow in your face and skin." Enter: Neutrogena.

Before we get into the routine, let's back up for a sec: Kara has been in the makeup game for a very long time, so her stamp of approval is a big deal. In addition to Jennifer Garner, Kara has also helped so many other celebs such as Emma Roberts, Sharon Stone, and Christina Applegate achieve next-level red carpet looks.

"It's been so long," Kara says of how long she's worked with Jennifer. "It was pre-kids, pre-marriage, pre-everything when we met. We've shared a lot of life experiences together."

On the day of Jennifer's premiere, Kara started prep a few hours before Jennifer walked the red carpet. "We started off with skincare," Kara tells WH. "We both love the [Neutrogena Hydroboost] gel to moisturize the skin."

Then, it's onto Neutrogena's Hydroboost Hydrating Tint. "[I start with] a foundation first, and I like to put a little on my fingers and blend on my hands to smooth onto [Jennifer's] skin, kind of like moisturizer," Kara says. "I like to do that right after applying moisturizer so it glides on and gives a sort of watercolor wash to even out the skin tone."

Next, when applying the Hydrating Concealer Stick, Kara has a trick. "Under the eyes, work [concealer] in [by drawing] a melon, or like an upside down C shape toward the bridge of the nose and under the eye instead of [applying it] under the whole eye," she says. "Then, pat it to blend it out."

For finishing touches, Kara worked in the multi-use stick to brighten up Jen's entire face. "It's a beautiful warm coral-y color, so we put that on the cheeks and also worked it into the lip and on the crease [of the eyelids]," she says. It's pretty simple, but she really loves embracing a natural look.

Kara ended the routine by taking some photos of Jennifer (which she says is now a big part of her job), then, The Last Thing He Told Me actress was totally premiere-ready.

You can shop the whole look below for your own red carpet needs (or next bomb Instagram selfie).
