- Jessica Alba recently stunned in a glowy no-makeup video on Instagram.
- The actress showed off her before-and-after looks for the Baby2Baby gala.
- Jessica has her own skincare line through The Honest Company, and loves using its cleanser and serum.
If there is a genre of Internet videos that is simply, unparalleled, it is the before-and-after glam shots—one second you are makeup-free, and then, tap, you are red carpet ready. I just can't get enough of them.
Jessica Alba, 42, recently proved this theory correct through an impeccable behind-the-scenes Instagram post. She follows the video's usual methodology, but she's Jessica Alba, so it's even better.
The actress was showing off her before-and-after look from the Baby2Baby gala, which is an organization that provides children living in poverty with basic necessities like diapers and clothes. Other star-studded attendees included Kim Kardashian and Salma Hayek, but Jessica may have won for best look of the night—at least with her pre-makeup glow.
In the video, the Honest Company owner was completely fresh-faced in a robe. The video is perfectly set to Rihanna's "Love On The Brain" as it smoothly transitions into her red carpet-ready look, and even ends with some pics of her smooching her boo, Cash Warren.
Fans were dropping lots of love and heart emojis in the comments. "Beautiful Jessica❤️😍🌹🔥," one commenter wrote. "Your beauty is unmatched," penned another, dropping about a dozen extra hearts afterward (and who could blame them?).

While she certainly rocked the recent gala red carpet, Jessica is just as beautiful when she's make-up free. The philanthropist unsurprisingly has her own beauty line through Honest, and loves using its foam cleanser and its pore-fect serum, she's previously shared on social media.
And as for how her diet affects her beauty routine, Jessica reportedly cuts back on animal products and alcohol whenever she can.
"Four days a week, I try to eat plant-based, and I don't drink alcohol," the actress previously told Women's Health. However, she goes for whatever sounds good to her on the weekends. It's all about balance!
