Fab February: Megan Fox Inspired School Makeup

megan fox makeup

Today's Fab February is a school look inspired by Megan Fox in the above picture. Its is pretty, light and perfect for school because it emphasizes all your best features without going too over the top. I have modified a few products to make it more wearable and affordable for those of us in school; I have also tried to use limited number of brushes. This look should take no more than 5-6 minutes. So let's get started:

Face:
1. Starting with a prepped and moisturized face take a BB cream and blend it all over your face using your fingers. The warmth from your fingers will help the BB cream blend into your skin easier. Jessie's Picks: Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream. Rimmel London 9-1 BB Cream Matte.

2. Next take your concealer apply it under the eyes and on any spots or dark marks, then using your ring finger gently pat until blended. Jessie's Picks: Rimmel 2-1 Concealer and Highlighter. Maybelline 24hr SuperStay Concealer.

3. Again using your fingers apply a cream peach coloured blush onto the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards along your cheekbone. Jessie's Picks: Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Peach Satin. Rvelon Photoready Cream Blush in Pinched.

4. Set your makeup with a luminous pressed powder. Jessie's Picks: Revlon Colourstay Aqua Mineral Foundation. Sleek Luminous Pressed Powder.

Eyes:
1. Start with an eye shadow primer to keep your eye makeup in place all day. Jessie's Picks: Too Faced Shadow Insurance. Urban Decay Primer Potion.

2. Take a shimmery gold eye shadow and using a flat eye shadow brush apply it all over your eye lid and into the inner corners. Jessie's Picks: Too Faced Eye Shadow in Honey Pot. L'Oreal Infallible Eye Shadow in Blinged and Brilliant.

3. Tightline your upper lashline with a black eye pencil. Jessie's Picks: Maybelline Line Express in Ebony Black. Avon Glimmersticks in Black.

4. Curl your lashes and apply 2 coats of a black or dark brown volumizing mascara. Jessie's Picks: CoverGirl Lashblast Fusion Mascara. Maybelline Great Lash Mascara.

Lips:
1. Line your lips with a spicy ginger toned lip liner (yes I just used the word spicy to describe a lip colour). Jessie's Picks: Rimmel 1000 Kisses Lip Liner in Rose Quartz. Maybelline Colorsensational Lip Liner in Toast.

2. Slick on a coat of a peach coloured lip gloss and you are good to go! Jessie's Picks: Maybelline Shine Sensational Lip Gloss in Peach Sorbet. Revlon Colourburst Lipgloss in Papaya

And there you go! Under 10 minutes, and as Megan Fox proves, this looks great even with a simple ponytail. So don't worry if you don't have a lot of time, breathe, and be inspired by Megan Fox.

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.
