You are beautiful. No really, YOU. ARE. BEAUTIFUL.

We know that for most, the utterance of such a statement from someone induces an immediate eye roll, especially when coming from some lamo trying to pick you up at the bar. But unlike him, we have the most honorable intentions when telling you this. Seriously, you are a unique, one of a kind, gorgeous woman in your own special way. And you should flaunt what you have: your hair, your eyes, your lips, your face. Besides, it's not only easy to be you, its actually hip too. Natural hairstyles and natural makeup looks are all over the runways and red carpets.

Not only is this earthy hair and makeup trend taking over Hollywood with its simplistic style, it is the perfect way to showcase your one-of-a-kind natural beauty. This of course doesn't mean ditching all your fave beauty products, it just means you'll embrace the good ol' saying "less is more." To recreate this "make under," makeup is used to simply enhance your best features as opposed to covering them up, and hairstyles are chosen for their elegant simplicity so they don't steal the show away from the main attraction: you.

To get the bare-naked basics on how to get naturally beautiful, we went to the best in the biz of inherent beauty. For makeup, we got Physician's Formula celebrity makeup artist Joanna Schlip, who's made up stars like Christina Applegate and Ellen Pompeo. For naturally beautiful hairstyles, we went to Aveda master stylist Pearson Knight, who has styled Jules Asner, Giada De Laurentiis, and a plethora of supermodels on the runway.

Here we share their step-by-step how-tos on bringing out your best, beautiful self. So go ahead, flaunt what you got because no one can pull off you like you know whom.

I love how you can bring out your features without loading tons of make up on your face. Their looks look effortless and natural, but bring so much beauty out of them.

Scarlett Johansson and Emma Watson have the best hair and makeup of the bunch-- just the right balance between "I just rolled out of bed" and lots of makeup.
