Blake Lively has quite the bio: She plays iconic TV and movie roles; she's a producer, philanthropist, and successful entrepreneur; she's a mom of four with her equally accomplished husband (Ryan Reynolds); and she even styles herself for red carpets. She knows what she likes-so we asked her to tell us what tops the list.
FAVORITE FLOWER
"Peonies, especially all shades of pink," Blake says. "Whenever I get the opportunity to garden and arrange fresh flowers, I feel like the luckiest person on the planet. It's straight-up peace."
SKIN CARE STAPLE
"I like these drops when I have an active day outside," she says. "When I'm wearing sunscreen and makeup, I want to do my best to avoid breaking out." Anti-Pollution Drops, $160; drsturm.com
