Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue Campaign Makeup

I know it is and old campaign, but I have always loved the look. So, I decided I would write a quick (or maybe not so quick) tutorial about it. It's a glowing, bronze, summery look; which is everything I need right now since it has been getting quite cold where I live.

Face:
1. Start by mixing a bronze illuminator in with your foundation, a liquid bronzer works perfectly well if you don't have one. Preferably pick one that has SPF.  Jessie's Picks: Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector SPF 25++ in Topaz. Clinique Even Better Foundation SPF 15.
2. If  you like you can now powder your face with a very fine finishing powder.  Jessie's Picks: Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder. Make Up For Ever HD Powder

Eyes:
1. Apply a dark bronze cream eye shadow all over your eyelid. Then take a fluffy eye shadow brush, and blend the edges and the crease, softening all harsh edges. Jessie's Picks: Clinique Chubby Stick Shadow Tint for Eyes in Fuller Fudge
2. Run a bit of the cream shadow along the lower lashline.
3. Take a dark brown eyeliner and line your top and bottom waterlines, making sure not to forget the inner corner. Jessie's Picks: Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place Eye Pencil in Coffee
4. Take a cream coloured eye shadow and place it in the inner corner of the eye. Jessie's Picks: Clinique Chubby Stick Shadow Tint for Eyes in Bountiful Beige
5. Apply volumizing mascara to the top and bottom lashes. Jessie's Picks: L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes Excess.
6. For your eyebrows, brush them through with a spooly and lightly fill in any  sparse areas with a brow powder.

Lips:
1. Exfoliate your lips, and apply beeswax based lipbalm. Jessie's Picks: Lush Lip Scrub. Burt's Bees Lip Balm
2. Pat a matte or cream finish rose pink lip stick onto your lips, and smooth out with your finger.  Jessie's Picks: L'Oreal Clour Riche Lipstick in #165 Tickled Pink. Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte Lip Colour in True Pink.

For today's Fab February post I thought I would post my makeup wishlist in honour of "Wishful Wednesday".... Yes, I just made that up.... Basically this post is of all the beauty related products that I would like to purchase or try in 2014. Kind of an odd post, but I have read a number of posts like this and I have always found them a useful forum. So if you have tried any of these products or have products that you want to try out in 2014 feel free to comment! 1. Nars Laguna Bronzing Powder .

Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. I am already in love with the original Naked Palette, and I just kn...

Summer Foundations

Hi everyone! Summer is finally here! This post is just a quick look at some great summer foundations. I went away camping for a weekend and got nice and tan so I can finally switch to my darker shades.  Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream in Light/Medium . If you are looking for a sheer coverage tinted moisturizer, this is the product for you. It has a heavier texture which can be uncomfortable on a humid day, but on a cloudy day this is a great base. It can be worn alone or under foundation. It actually has a really nice semi-matte finish when set with a setting powder, or a dewy finish if worn by itself.  Vichy Norma Teint Anti-Blemish Foundation in Sand . This foundation is perfect for acne prone skin. It is almost like a serum, very liquid like, but it has great coverage and lasting power. I don't suffer from acne or a lot of pimples, but of I do have a bit of a break out this foundation doesn't irritate it further and keeps it from spreading.  ...
