Naturally Glamorous Everyday Makeup

Face:
1. Start by applying a tinted moisturizer to fresh and clean skin. Blend well into the skin and apply a second layer where any extra coverage or moisture is needed.
2. Follow up by applying a highlighting and illuminating concealer under your eyes, and slightly thicker concealer over any blemishes or imperfections you wish to conceal.
3. Apply a cream blush in a cool pink or peach shade just along your cheek bone, and a slightly brighter shade to the apples of your cheeks. This will give you a healthy pop of colour. Remember to blend, blend, blend. Tip: If you can see a line of blush on your face, you haven't blended the edges enough.
4. If you like you can set your face with a translucent powder, or you can leave the makeup as is for a dewy glow.

Eyes:
1. Apply a matte cream coloured shadow all over your lid.
2. Next blend a matte brown shade into your crease, and the outer corner of the eye. This will elongate the eye and make it appear wider.
3. Line your upper lashline lightly with a black kohl eyeliner, add a small flick.
4. Take a fluffy eyeshadow brush and blend over the eyeliner, making it a shadow. As you are blending slightly pull up with the brush. This will give you a softer looking cat eyeliner. Continue to reapply the black eyeliner and blend until you reach your desired intensity.
5. Curl your eyelashes and apply 2 coats of thickening/volumizing mascara.
 6. If you like you can apply false eyelashes, preferably in the summer use a waterproof lash glue.

Lips:
1. Apply a light tinted lip balm (One of the best inventions ever). I really like Smith's Rosebud Slave because you can use it on everything, like dry cuticles, dry hands, lips, hair, everything.

Whatever Wednesdays: Victoria Beckham Hair How-To

  Victoria Beckham Ponytail: With her long dark brown hair, Victoria Beckham's hairstyle of choice has become the ponytail. This style is quick, and ultra chic. 1. Start with day-old hair (or even if you are starting with freshly washed hair) and spritz with a volumizing dry shampoo. 2. Pull your hair back with your fingers, smoothing over any stray hairs. 3. Once you have your ponytail in the desired place, fasten with a hair tie. 4. Take your straightener and run it over the ends of your ponytail, to give it a sleek effect. 5. Add a tiny dot of shine serum to the ends. Simply rub the serum between your palms, and run your hands over the end of your ponytail. Voila! Tu es fini, and you have a simple and chic hairdo. xx JD Please leave me a comment let me know what you think!  If you have any questions or suggestions: Email me: jessicadonna96@gmail.com

Throwback Everyday Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! If you know me, you'll know that I have a slight makeup problem... I have way too much! But I can't help it, I just love it so, and I honestly look forward to putting my makeup on every morning. So today I decided I would do a quick post on my fave go to glam look for daytime. It looks quite heavy, but because I'm using mineral makeup it feels like I'm wearing no face makeup at all! My skin is quite sensitive and dry, so for the longest time I thought that mineral makeup wouldn't work for my skin, but boy was I wrong! I was at Winners recently and saw that they had a couple Bellapierre Cosmetics mineral makeup sets on sale for $14... So I thought I'd try it out, and now I can never go back to regular liquid foundations! Mineral makeup is considered to be better for your skin as it is natural, and usually only contains 3-4 natural ingredients. Bellapierre foundation has an SPF of 15 which can cause a little bit of flashback, so if ...
