Fab February: Angelina Jolie Makeup Look

(Picture Courtesy of Pinterest)
Welcome to the first day of Fab February! I was at the movie theatre yesterday and I saw the trailer for Angelina Jolie's new film Maleficent, and I thought why not do an Angelina Jolie makeup tutorial. So today's look is based on the picture above, and I will be using the Tarte Beauty and the Box Eye Shadow Quad in In the Buff. These eye shadows are amazing, they are so smooth and silky and have excellent pigmentation. I have been using this quad for over a year, and it is perfect for neutral makeup looks. The colours compliment any eye colour, but blue eyes will especially benefit from the bronzey shades. 
Alright enough rambling here is the Angelina Jolie inspired makeup look:

Face:
1. Start with your favourite sheer-medium coverage foundation or tinted moisturizer and blend it all over your face and down your neck. Jessie's Picks: L'Oreal True Match Lumi Foundation. Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer Oil-Free.

2. Apply a highlighting concealer in a V-shape underneath your eyes, fanned out (like a tree) in the centre of your forehead, down the centre of your nose, and on your chin; then blend it out softly with your fingers or a brush. This will create that really nice Angelina Jolie bone structure. Jessie's Picks: Rimmel Match Perfection 2 in 1 Concealer and Highlighter. YSL Touche Eclat Radiance.

3. To further emphasize that bone structure take a matte bronzer on a contour brush and apply to the hollows of your cheeks, sides of your nose, under you jaw, and the sides of your forehead. As for brushes Real Techniques has a great contour brush and the MAC 109 is another great one. Jessie's Picks: Benefit Hoola Bronzer. Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzing Powder. 

4. Take a matte light pink blush and apply it only to your cheekbones blending upwards. Don't apply it to the apples of your cheeks as this will make you face appear rounder. Jessie's Picks: Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Pink Frosting. Clinique Cheek Pop in Plum Pop.

5. Set your face with a luminous pressed powder and spritz with a setting spray. Jessie's Picks: Sleek Luminous Pressed Powder. Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray. 


Eyes:

Just so you know which shades I am talking about.
1. Start by applying your favourite eye shadow primer, or concealer, all over your eye lid. Jessie's Picks: Too Faced Shadow Insurance. Urban Decay Primer Potion.

2. Using a fluffy eye shadow brush apply Sunkissed all over your eye lid, but focus on the outer half of your lid. 

3. Using the same brush add a little bit of Silk Sheets to the inner half of your eye lid. 

4. On a small eye liner or accent brush apply a small amount of Tanline along your lower lashline.

5. Take a black kohl eye pencil and run it along the outer third of your upper lash line. Jessie's Picks: L'Oreal Smoldering Eye Kohl. Maybelline Line Express Eye Liner. 

6. Again using your small eye liner or accent brush, take Tanline and softly smudge the eye liner you just applied to soften the look.

7. Tightline your upper waterline with a black gel eye liner. Jessie's Picks: Bobbi Brown Gel Eye Liner. Maybelline Gel Eye Liner.

8. Curl your lashes and apply a volumizing mascara. Jessie's Picks: Benefit BadGal Lash Mascara. Benefit They're Real Mascara.

Lips:
1. Line your lips using a soft pink lip liner. To make your lips appear larger like Angelina's line slightly outside of your natural lip line. Jessie's Picks: Yves Rocher Couleurs Nature Lip Pencil in 01 Rose. Maybelline Color Sensational Lip Liner in Pink.

2. Swipe on a creamy pink lip stick. Jessie's Picks: Rimmel Lasting Finish Lip Stick in Airy Fairy. Maybelline Lip Stick in Born With It.

3. On your ring finger take a small amount of Porcelain eye shadow and dab it onto the centre of your bottom lip, to create the illusion of fuller lips. 

There we have it: Angelina Jolie makeup. Who doesn't want to look like a bombshell now and again? I timed this makeup look and it took 11 minutes from start to finish. Hope you enjoyed this makeup look!

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. Here is a lighter daytime version of her signature look that Victoria has been sporting more and more often. Face: 1. Victoria has oily skin so a primer is a must. Pop a little all over your face, making sure to blend down your neck. Jessie's Pick: Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer 2. Smooth a cream foundation over your face, blending it down your neck. Jessie's Picks: Laura Mercier Crème Smooth Foundation or Rimmel Match Perfection Cream Foundation. 3. Dot
