Top Knot Bright Lip Makeup Pinterest Inspired

I was on Pinterest earlier today and I got  lost in all of the pictures of models with top knots and bright lips, and so I was inspired to recreate their look. It is clean, and simple skin and eyes with a pop of bright on the lips. I love this look for the upcoming dreary winter days. It'll be a quick and gorgeous option when you want to sleep in a little more.

Face:
1. Start with a creamy tinted moisturizer, and blend it well into your skin, making sure to bring it down your neck. Jessie's Picks: Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer. Clinique Moisture Surge Tinted Moisturizer.

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.
