Welcome to today's Fab February! For my next Hair, Makeup, and Outfit series I will be doing all Paris/French themed looks! French women are considered some the most beautiful in the world, and this look is inspired by French beauties such as Marion Cotillard and Clemence Poesy. Let's get started:

Face:

1. Start by spritzing your freshly cleansed face with a vitamin infused face mist. Jessie's Picks: Avene Facial Mist. Kora Organics Balancing Face Mist.

2. Next take a deep moisturizer and blend it into your skin. Jessie's Picks: Nivea Moisturizing Day Cream. Embryollisse Lait Creme Concentre.

3. Take a cream bronzer and apply it to wherever the sun naturally hits your face. Blend out well using your fingers or a buffing brush. Jessie's Picks: Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Bronce. Benefot Cosmetics Sun Beam. 

4. On a big fluffy powder brush dust a luminous loose powder foundation all over your face and down your neck. Jessie's Picks: Revlon Colorstay Aqua Mineral Makeup. Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfecting Powder.

5. Smile! And blend a pink cream blush onto the apples of your cheeks to add a youthful glow. Jessie's Picks: Stila Convertable Colour in Petunia. Tarte Cheek Stain in Fearless.

Eyes:
1. Take a brow gel and brush it onto your eye brows to set them into place. Jessie's Picks: Anastasia Tinted Brow Gel. Revlon Brow Fantasy.

2. Sweep a matte nude eye shadow all over your eye lid. Jessie's Picks: Mac Eye Shadow in Brule. Urban Decay Naked Eye Shadow in Naked. 

3. Curl your eye lashes and apply a coat of dark brown mascara. Jessie's Picks: Maybelline Great Lash Mascara. Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara.


Lips:

1. Apply a tinted lip balm to your lips. This is a great product because most of them are small enough you can pop them into your bag to bring with you. Jessie's Picks: Burts Bees Tinted Lip Balm. Nivea Fruity Shine in Cherry or Strawberry. 

That is the completed makeup look. It is nice, fresh, and youthful. Perfect for a weekend or whenever you feel like looking posh. Coming up soon: Paris Inspired Outfits and French Chignon Hair Tutorial.

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
