Anna Saccone Inspired Makeup

(Courtesy of annasaccone.com)


Anna Saccone is the most subscribed to female Irish youtuber, the author of "The Style Diet", and 1/4 of the SacconeJoly's YouTube reality show. She also had incredible style and makeup, and so today's post is my take on my favourite of her daily makeup looks, which is very natural but polished. I loved her makeup back in July of 2013 and so that is mostly the look I am going to try and recreate. 

Face:
1. Take a full coverage concealer, and dot it under your eyes, on any blemishes, or acne scars. Anna has oily, acne prone skin, and so using a heavier concealer means she can get away with wearing a lighter foundation.
 Anna likes Maybelline 24hr SuperStay Concealer or Estee Lauder Double Wear Concealer. I used Rimmel 2 in 1 Highlighter and Concealer. 

2. Blend a light BB cream or tinted moisturizer all over your face and neck. Anna likes Mac Studio Tint or Maybellline Dream Fresh BB Cream. I used Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream in Medium Deep. 

3. Using a fluffy brush, apply powder all over your face to set your foundation. Anna likes Rimmel Clear Complexion Clarifying Powder. I used Mac Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation. 

4. Contour your face using an angled brush and a matte bronzer. Anna likes Benefit Hoola Bronzer. I used the bronzer from the elf Contouring Blush and Bronzer Kit. 

5. Add a shimmery peach blush to your cheekbones using a fluffy face brush. Nars blush in Orgasm is Anna's favourite, that is the blush that I used, but the blush shade from the elf kit would work as well. 

6. Take an eyebrow powder and using a small angled brush fill in your brows. Anna has a quite rounded arch, similar to Megan Fox' brows. Anna has used HD Brow kits, and Benefit Brow Zings. I used elf Eye Brow Kit in Dark. 


Eyes:
Anna uses the Urban Decay Naked Palette (1 or 2), Smashbox Studio Pop Palette, and a Dior eyeshadow palette, all with neutral shimmery colours. I used the Avon Expert Mega Palette.

1.Add a shimmery highlight colour to your browbone and inner corner of your eyes. 

2.Apply a shimmery gold/taupe  neutral eyeshadow all over your lid.

3.  Blend a matte medium brown shade into your crease, and bring it slightly up onto your browbone to make your eye look bigger and to recede your browbone.

4. Take a fluffy eye shadow brush and blend the eye shadow until all the harsh edges are gone.

5. Line your upper lashline with a black liquid eyeliner, Anna usually uses an eyeliner pen.

6. Run a warm brown, black or khaki eyeliner in both your upper and lower waterlines. Stila make really nice and soft waterproof eye liners perfect for your waterline. I used the Maybelline Line Express in Black. 

7. Apply a couple coats of a black volumizing mascara. Anna likes any of the CoverGirl lashblast mascaras. I used Maybelline Big Eyes the Falsies. 

Lips:
Anna loves herself a nude lip.
Pop a creamy nude pink or soft brown lipcolour all over your lips. Anna likes the Revlon Lip Butters in Creme Brulee. Sugar Frosting, and Pink Truffle. I used the Rimmel Vinyl Gloss in Snog. 

That's it! You are now YouTube ready! Please feel free to watch the video of this look, found here:

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.

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.

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 ...
