Makeup Monday: Lily Aldridge Makeup

Lily Aldridge- perfect style, perfect hair, flawless makeup...
Lily Aldridge is a gorgeous model, and after having a not so great day I thought I'd do a model makeup look. This a fresh and bronzed makeup look, so if you can fake tan the night before or just tailor it to your skintone.

Face:
1. Apply a gel or liquid bronzer all over your face as a base. Jessie's Picks: Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector SPF 25++ in Topaz. Laura Mercier Foundation Primer in Radiance Bronze.

2. Using a brush add some tinted moisturizer all over your face and down your neck. Jessie's Picks:  Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream SPF 30 in Medium. Clinique Moisture Surge Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 in Shade 04.

4. Apply a bronzey-rose cream blush to your cheekbones and blend upwards. Jessie's Picks: Elizabeth Arden Cream Ceramide Blush in Honey. Make Up For Ever HD Blush in Rosewood.


Eyes:
1. Using a fluffy eye shadow brush buff a light matte brown eye shadow all over your eye lid. Jessie's Picks: Mac Eye Shadow in Wedge. Urban Decay Eye Shadow in Naked.

2. Take a black felt tip liquid eye liner pen and line your upper lash line, but don't wing it out or create a flick. Jessie's Picks: Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Eye Liner Pen. Eyeko Skinny Liquid Eye Liner.

3. Dab a shimmery white or silver eye shadow into the inner corner of your eyes. Jessie's Picks: Urban Decay Eye Shadow in Zephyr. Stila Eye Shadow in Cloud.

Makeup Monday: Victoria Beckham Makeup Look

Victoria Beckham is a style icon, and personally one of my top fashion and beauty inspirations. Her fashion line boasts beautiful structure and lines. One half of Britain's "other royal family" Victoria rules the fashion world with an iron fist, having recently launched another successful denim and accessories line. Her makeup hasn't changed much from her Posh Spice days, it has only become more chic and polished. Her signature smokey eye and nude lip can be adapted for any event, outfit, day or night.
