The Beauty Evolution of Rowan Blanchard
Rowan Blanchard may not yet have her driver’s license, but she’s been a fixture in the Hollywood spotlight for a long time now. Since her first big stint on the silver screen in Spy Kids: All the Time in the World 4D, Rowan’s taken over TVs all throughout America, earning a starring role on Disney's Girl Meets World — but her work doesn’t stop there. Not unlike her bubbly, inquisitive, and opinionated on-screen persona, Rowan has taken on bullies in the Twitterverse, rallied for LGBTQ rights, and schooled others on the nuances of intersectional feminism, noting that it's about equal rights for all women. But the similarities end there — Rowan’s beauty aesthetic IRL couldn’t be more different than her character Riley Matthews’s.
