Makeup-free Jennifer Garner looks relaxed amid divorce dramas as she flashes her beautiful smile after workout session
It hasn't been the easiest year for her.
But Jennifer Garner - who split from husband Ben Affleck this summer - looks like she's finally getting her smile back, and is in a far happier place.
The actress, 43, looked glowing as she stepped out in Brentwood, Los Angeles on Saturday along with a pal, her huge beaming grin clearly visible from afar.

She's fine! Jennifer Garner looked gorgeous as she went makeup-free after a workout session in Brentwood, California on Saturday
She had been for a rigorous workout in the area, and was still wearing her slim-fitting gym gear as she walked, clutching a tray of hot and cold drinks for a post-session refreshment.
As well as cutting a beaming, happy figure, the 13 Going On 30 actress showed off her trim and toned physique in her black gear.
Her slender legs were encased in a pair of simple black Nike leggings, and she made a show of her incredible lean arms and shoulders in a strappy gym vest, a hint of her red sports bra poking through.

A touch of vivid colour was added to the laid-back and utilitarian ensemble with her bright yellow and orange trainers, and she finished her daytime ensemble with a sweater tied neatly around her slim hips.
Going make-up free, the natural beauty looked as gorgeous as she would on any red carpet with a full face of cosmetics, her wide smile and laughing eyes showcasing her vivacity.
Keeping it simple after her workout, Jennifer tied her brunette locks back into a messy ponytail, adding a youthful vibe to the seemingly ageless star.

She was in incredible spirits as she walked side-by-side with a pal, the two of them chatting jovially and looking as though they were sharing in-jokes.
It's a sight that will no doubt put a smile on any fan of Jennifer, who has rarely flashed her winning grin in recent months in the wake of her split from husband of 10 years Ben.
She did not appear to be wearing her wedding ring, something she was still wearing over a month after they announced their split at the end of June.

Also on Saturday, Jennifer was seen out and about with her three children with her estranged husband, daughters Seraphina, nine, and Violet, six, and son Samuel, three.
Despite the ongoing divorce, the family are frequently seen together as the parents continue to put on a united front for the sake of their children, but on Saturday it was just Jen and one of the family's nannies out and about.
The Pearl Harbor and Daredevil co-stars announced they were splitting on June 30, one day after their ten year anniversary, amid reports Ben was involved with their children's 28-year-old nanny Christine Ouzounian.

In late August People reported Garner was rethinking her initial living arrangement with Affleck.
The plan was for him to take a wing on their massive Pacific Palisades estate in LA so he could be closer to their children Violet, Seraphina and Samuel.
But now she thinks the Oscar winner may be better off at a nearby rental.
Since their divorce announcement Jen and the Argo actor have kept their family unit together by going on vacations and regular outings together, keeping wedding rings on and sharing the same property together during the renovation process of their main home in Los Angeles.
