Super Saturday: 5 Must Haves for Perfect Winter Skin

In the winter, our skin tends to look a little dull, and the harsh weather can make it dry and flaky. Here are 5 products that will help you achieve perfect glowing winter skin:

1. A moisturizing  base. Winter weather will make your skin drier and dull, so find a base that contains moisturizing ingredients and says it gives a luminous effect. Jessie's Picks: Smashbox Liquid Halo Foundation. Laura Mercier Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer. Bobbi Brown Extra SPF 25 Tinted Moisturizing Balm.

2. A creamy concealer. For under your eyes, look for a creamy formula that blends easily, and for blemishes look for a cream to powder concealer that glides over dry patches. Jessie's Picks: Benefit Cosmetics Fake Up Concealer. Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer. Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer.

3. A cream blush. Using a cream blush will give you a healthy youthful glow, and will blend easier into your foundation. Jessie's Picks: Nars The Multiple. Yves Saint Laurent Creme de Blush - Soft Blush. Avon Cream Blush Stick.

4. A soft highlighter. Using a highlighter in the winter will give you a nice glow and soft focus effect.The shimmery highlighter won't look as "fake" as in the summer when the sunlight is harsher. Jessie's Picks: Clinique Up- Lighting Liquid Illuminator. Nars Illuminator. Benefit Cosmetics Watts Up.

5.  A setting spray. Don't cake on powder to set your face, as most powders will take away from your skins glow. Instead use a setting spray to prolong the life of your makeup. Jessie's Picks: Mac Fix+ Setting Spray. Urban Decay All Nighter Long Lasting Makeup Setting Spray. Make Up Forever Mist and Fix.


All of these products will give you a flawless glowy skin, and make it last all day (even through the snow squalls).

Summer Lace OOTD and Natural Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! Today's OOTD is my favourite summer look. Lace, loose waves, and a natural makeup look. It was nice and warm today so I brought out one of my favourite dresses. It is from American Eagle, and was given to me by one of my friends a few years ago. I like that it is strapless as when I am outside enjoying the sunshine I don't have to worry about awkward tan lines! I went with a natural and glowing makeup look today, and I even filmed it for you! You can watch the video below. It is inspired by the gorgeous Gigi Hadid. xx Jess Instagram: jessicakinnari
