Hey Upper Eastsiders, Gossip Girl here. And I have the biggest news ever
It's time to pull out your headbands because Gossip Girl is returning for a 10 episode on HBO's new streaming service in 2020. I am a huge fan of Gossip Girl so when I heard the news I knew I had to create a Miss Makeup post about it (or should I say 3?). The next 4 Miss Makeup posts are dedicated to Manhattan's elite our Queen B Blair Waldorf, Serena Van Der Woodsen, Little J (Jenny Humphrey) and Vanessa Abrams. Each product will feature 5 of the characters most iconic makeup looks, steps on how to recreate the look and recommended products (some which the shows makeup artist actually used on the actresses when filming the show!)

Look 1: Jenny's First Appearance (Season 1, Episode 1)
Our innocent Little J is first seen at Grand Central Station with Dan, coming home to their dad Rufus. If only we knew who she would turn out to be in the next few seasons...
Complexion:
- Lightly dust a peachy blush on the apples of the cheeks
- A medium coverage foundation or BB cream will work as a natural and youthful base
Eyes:
1. Dust an icy white shade along the entire eyelid
2. Using windshield wiper motions to brush a nude brown eyeshadow into the crease
3. Brush the same shade along the outer corner from the middle of the lid
4. Tap a shimmery white shade into the tear duct
5. Dust the same shade along the brow bone
6. Use the same brown shade from earlier to wing the eyeshadow down to the lower lash line
7. Coat lashes in a brown mascara
Lips:
- Dab a hot pink lip gloss from the centre of the lips to the outer corners
Look 2: Little J's First Taste Of Royalty (Season 1, Episode 14)
Near the end of the first season, Jenny starts to dress more like the other Constance students on the Upper East Side. Her makeup becomes bolder and her clothes start to look more expensive. In this episode in particular she has taken over Blair's spot as Queen B. Yes it's the episode where she dumps the yogurt on Blair's head.
Complexion:
- Apply blush to the apples of the cheeks and lightly on the forehead to balance the look
- Concealer under eyes and dot the concealer along the nose, chin and forehead
Eyes:
- Use natural brown and beige shades for the eyeshadow look
- Apply a thick charcoal line along the lower and upper lash line using eyeliner
Lips:
- Apply a pink lipstick
- Dab a clear gloss over the lipstick for Jenny's glassy look
Look 3: That Photo Shoot With Agnes (Season 2, Episode 8)
