My Makeup Table

Happy March! I recently reorganized my makeup table and I thought I would share with you what it looks like and how I keep it organized. I will follow up with a post on my blogging table. I apologize for the dark photos but today there was no sunlight as it was snowing and cloudy. Oh these wonderful winter days! 



This is my makeup table :) It is actually a computer table with green fabric draped over it. I have decorated it with fake flowers, and my Eiffel Tower shaped jewelry stand (a gift from my brother). I also have some books which I take makeup inspiration from, and little candle holders that I use for my earrings.

This is a green plastic organizer I picked up from the Dollar Tree.  I really love the neon green colour because it reminds me of spring and it matches my green fabric. It has 3 different sections which are perfect for my brushes and make them much easier to find and manage. In the back section I keep my hair styling products. I separate my face brushes from my eye brushes just because I prefer the way it looks (great reason I know).  

I also obviously keep my makeup bag on the table. I only keep the products that I am wearing everyday in my makeup bag. The rest I keep on my blogging desk in my acrylic cosmetic organizer. I will do a separate post on what is in my spring makeup bag.

Next I have a super cute Greek inspired bowl, which I keep my current nail polishes, lip sticks, and extra mascaras in. As well as a bunch of candle holders in which are my earrings and Q-Tips. I like using decorative candle holders to hold all my basics. 


This is the box that I got a Christmas mug in but it was so cute I had to use it. I think it is a great way to disguise clutter. I store a lot of my lip sticks and lip glosses that I haven't worn in a while or are not in season. 


I'll leave you with this picture of the Disney princesses who inhabit my desk.

Fab February: Anna Edwin Makeup

Anna Edwin is a Norwegian blogger. She began her blog in 2009 and she blogs about everything from hair to bowling (well maybe not actually bowling). Her hair and makeup is always flawless, nice and bronzed.  So I thought it would be perfect for spring and to warm us all up. If you want to check out Anna's blog click  here  (her blog is obviously in Norwegian so you'll have to press the translate button). I searched her blog and tried to use the same products that she does. Let's get started on her makeup look! Face: 1. Start with your favourite face primer. Jessie's Picks: Too Faced Primed and Poreless Skin Smoothing Primer. Korres Greek Yoghurt Face Primer. 2. Next apply your concealer underneath your eyes and on any blemishes. Jessie's Picks: Mac Moisturecover Concealer. TheBalm Time Balm Concealer. 3. On a big fluffy face brush buff a matte powder foundation all over your face and down your neck. Jessie's Picks: Bare Mineral Matte Foundation Bro

Whatever Wednesdays: Victoria Beckham Hair How-To

  Victoria Beckham Ponytail: With her long dark brown hair, Victoria Beckham's hairstyle of choice has become the ponytail. This style is quick, and ultra chic. 1. Start with day-old hair (or even if you are starting with freshly washed hair) and spritz with a volumizing dry shampoo. 2. Pull your hair back with your fingers, smoothing over any stray hairs. 3. Once you have your ponytail in the desired place, fasten with a hair tie. 4. Take your straightener and run it over the ends of your ponytail, to give it a sleek effect. 5. Add a tiny dot of shine serum to the ends. Simply rub the serum between your palms, and run your hands over the end of your ponytail. Voila! Tu es fini, and you have a simple and chic hairdo. xx JD Please leave me a comment let me know what you think!  If you have any questions or suggestions: Email me: jessicadonna96@gmail.com
