Blake Lively Doesn’t Even Look Like Herself Anymore—Her Face Has Changed SO Much

Blake Lively is one of the most beautiful – as well as the most fashionable – actresses in Hollywood. We dare anyone to try and change our minds! The 34-year-old California girl owns every single red carpet she walks, and we are in awe of everything from her picture-perfect marriage to Ryan Reynolds, her glowing skin, her sleek yet bouncy blonde locks, her enviable style prowess… need we go on?

However, it’s come to our attention that Lively – as natural as she appears to be – didn’t always look like this. The (OG) Gossip Girl star hasn’t officially confirmed that she has undergone any surgical procedures – nor have any surgeons revealed that she is on their client list – but there are quite a few obvious changes she has made to her appearance over the years – and a few slightly less obvious ones too – and we’re only just starting to notice it.

Blake’s before and after pictures have actually taken us by surprise, as anyone looking at the actress now sees a very natural beauty, not overly altered or enhanced by surgery. However, on closer inspection, and especially when side by side before and after pictures are in front of us, the contrast is actually quite shocking. How did Blake’s transformation go unnoticed for so long?!

We must point out that we were first introduced to the actress when she was just 11 years old, when she appeared in the movie Sandman, directed by her father Ernie Lively. So some of these changes are obviously going to be the result of growing up; while others may be the result of some professional intervention. Let’s go through some pictures and talk about what we suspect (everything we say is of course, just suspected) she may have had some help with over the years…

A very different nose

The most obvious improvement the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants star had is her nose job – or rhinoplasty, to use the technical term. Although a lot of people would kill for Blake’s natural nose, which was wider and flatter than it is right now, it’s clear to see that her current nose is smaller, thinner, as well as more defined and sculpted. Fans and surgeons speculate that the actress may have had more than one rhinoplasty over the years, but nose contouring has also come a long way, so the extra definition could just be the handiwork of a very good makeup-artist. Fillers and non-surgical rhinoplasties are also an option, so it’s possible that Lively could have had just one rhinoplasty followed by some non-surgical touch-ups. What do you think?

Bigger and more open eyes

The Age of Adaline star’s eye makeup game really started to change from 2013 onwards. Although who can honestly say that they wore the same makeup that they did two years ago, let alone a decade ago? The A Simple Favor actress started wearing a lot less makeup on her eyes after 2013, and fans speculate that it may be down to some subtle eyelid surgery. Blake appeared to have hooded eyes at the start of her career, and it’s common for those with similar eye shapes to “compensate” with darker eyeshadow. From 2013 onwards, Blake’s eyes seemed more open, and almost a different shape, which is a common result of eyelid surgery. Just like all of Blake’s alleged surgery, the change is actually really subtle, but it makes such a huge difference!
