Teen Makeup Look

This is just a quick everyday look for those in high school , or college. It is sweet, feminine, and gives a nice and polished look.

Skin:
First start by taking care of your skin. Cleansing, toning, and then using a good moisturizer. 

Base:
1. Apply a creamy concealer under your eyes, and then a long lasting liquid concealer over any blemishes, acne scars, or red spots. Jessie's Picks: Mac Studio Finish Concealer and Maybelline 24 Super Stay Concealer.
2. Apply a tinted moisturizer over top. Applying your concealer first allows you to be more heavy handed, and then adding a light base avoids the "1 inch face" look. Jessie's Picks: Maybelline BB Cream or Mac Studio Moisture Tint
3. Apply either a cheek stain, or a coral cream blush to the cheek bones and apples of the cheeks. Blend, blend, blend! Jessie's Picks: Tarte Cheek Satin or Avon Cream Blush Stick
4. Powder your skin with a fine finishing powder, and spritz with a setting spray.

Eyes:
1. Apply a wash of a shimmery pink/nude eyeshadow across your eyelid. Jessie's Picks: Mac Girlie Eyeshadow or Maybelline Color Tattoo in Inked in Pink.
2. Blend a taupe shade into the crease and outer corner. Jessie's Picks: Mac Satin Taupe or Laura Mercier Sable Eyeshadow.
3. Apply a very fine line of either gel or liquid eyeliner along the upper lashline. Jessie's Picks: Maybelline Gel Eyeliner in Black or Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink
4. Using a volumizing mascara, apply 1-2 coats. Jessie's Pick: Benefit They're Real Mascara
5. Fill in your eyebrows with a brow powder and set them with a clear brow gel. 

Lips: 
1. Apply a lightly  tinted lip balm. Jessie's Picks: Any of the Burt's Bees tinted lipbalms.


This look should take about 10 minutes, which is nice if you like to sleep in in the mornings.

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 ...
