Style Saturday: Lipstick and Nail Polish Haul

Hello! Welcome to Style Saturday. As you can tell from the title this is not a fashion style post but a makeup-style post. I recently picked up a number of lip products as well a few nail polishes and I thought I would share them:


These are the lip products I picked up. From L-R: Rimmel Lasting Finish in Asia, Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish in 14, Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish in 104, Revlon Super Lustrous in Blushing Mauve, Revlon Super Lustrous in Icy Violet, and Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue in Too Cool.

Rimmel Lasting Finish in Asia. This is a mauve/brown shade that is in between Airy Fairy and Paradise. I really like the formula and finishes of Rimmel lip sticks so I think this will be a great daily neutral lip colour.

Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish in 14.  I have never tried the Kate Moss line so I thought I would try this shade. It is a nude/pink shade that has a matte finish. I think this will be great with a smokey eye or winged liner.

Rimmel Kate Lasting Finish Lipstick in 104. This is the darkest of the Rimmel shades. It is a more raspberry/brown shade. It also matte which would be better for a night out, as matte shades have a longer staying power. 

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Blushing Mauve. I wore this one today and it is already my favourite! It is the perfect daily lip colour. It is a pearl finish, and is the same colour as my lips. This has a super creamy and long wearing formula.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Icy Violet. This was one of the first Revlon lip stick colours. It was first introduced in 1946, was discontinued, and then voted back. I haven't worn it yet but I hear it is more of a mauve than a violet. Great for a "bright" lip and bun day.

Maybelline Baby Lips Dr. Rescue in Too Cool. Due to the cold weather my lips have become incredibly dry, and I had heard great things about this medicated lip balm. There was a warning on the box that said not to use it more than 3-4 times a day. I guess because them it will actually begin to dry out your lips. So far it a has kept my lips moisturized for about 3-4 hours, even under lip stick and after eating.

Here are the 2 nail polishes I picked up. They are Revlon's Spanish Moss and Charming.

I am wearing Spanish Moss on my nails. This is a great khaki colour which is perfect for spring. Khaki goes well with any colour and this has a cream finish and is wearing well (usually my nails chip within a day).

I hope you enjoyed this post and are having a great weekend! Until next time...

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

Throwback Everyday Makeup Tutorial

Hello everyone! If you know me, you'll know that I have a slight makeup problem... I have way too much! But I can't help it, I just love it so, and I honestly look forward to putting my makeup on every morning. So today I decided I would do a quick post on my fave go to glam look for daytime. It looks quite heavy, but because I'm using mineral makeup it feels like I'm wearing no face makeup at all! My skin is quite sensitive and dry, so for the longest time I thought that mineral makeup wouldn't work for my skin, but boy was I wrong! I was at Winners recently and saw that they had a couple Bellapierre Cosmetics mineral makeup sets on sale for $14... So I thought I'd try it out, and now I can never go back to regular liquid foundations! Mineral makeup is considered to be better for your skin as it is natural, and usually only contains 3-4 natural ingredients. Bellapierre foundation has an SPF of 15 which can cause a little bit of flashback, so if ...
