HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

What did you get your Mom this year??

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

Oh Dear, Jackie O!

If you say her name "Jackie O," Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis an image is easily brought to mind!

This is a true sign of a Style Icon. 

Big Sun Glasses.Pill Box Hats.String of Pearls.Tailored Jackets.A-Line Dresses with Bows.

Jackie O - oozed class, elegance and style!

This Classic Beauty Stayed true to herself in clothes, make-up and hair!

I always say, "Emphasize your natural beauty, Don't mask your flaws!"

 Jackie did just this, she kept her hair colour so close to her natural, just gave it a little extra warmth to brighten her skin and always wore what MUA's know as "straight make-up" on her face!

Here's her make-up trick!

 1. Apply a light foundation, allowing your natural tones to show threw - freckles and all!

2. Fill the brows to give strength to the face.

3. Apply a subtle highlight to the inner eye, on the brow bone and the cheek bones.

4. On the Uppler Lash Line, line from the outer eye in, 3/4 of the way with a chestnut brown. 

5.  Use the same liner to line your lower water line 3/4 aswel.

6. With a warm brown shadow about 4 shades darker than your skin tone, contour your eye by sweeping it at the crease. 

7. Apply lots of mascara!

8. Use a soft natural shade of blush, sweep across the cheeks and the bridge of the nose.

9. Use a light contouring blush in the hollows of the cheeks to add depth to the face and to accentuate your cheek bones.

10. To add a pop, Jackie played with different shades of pink! It gave her otherwise natural look, a bit of a fashionable, and youthful flare!

Coco Chanel

Coco Chanel

She's known for her trademark suits, little black dresses, and creation of timeless designs that are still popular today. She became an adored style icon famous for her simple yet sophisticated outfits paired with classic accessories - multiple strands of pearls. As Chanel once said,“luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.”

 Thanks Chanel for making fashion comfortable yet classy - bu-bye corsets!

Cues from Coco

Fashion: Embrace comfort, clean lines and masculine flares. Pearls always make an outfit classy!

Make-Up: Emphasize your eyes with strong brows and heavy lashes! 

Over shaping the natural flow of your brow can make your eyes appear smaller and miss shaped. Try trimming your brow's rather than plucking too many hairs. 

If you can see bald spots in your brows fill them in gently. Avoid using a pencil, try using a light touch with a matching powder and liner brush. Quick, light stokes of powder appear much like hair!

Hair: A DEEP SIDE PART! I personally wouldn't wear Coco's hair style in today's world but it's easy to modernize her lock's look! Here's how...

Start with Dry Hair

Spray all over with Osis Glamour Queen

To Finish the Look and help it hold Spray all over with Osis Elastic!

It's a fantastic soft hold spray! 

P.S. I used my 3 Barrel Interchangeable AMIKA curling Iron to get this look! Love love love the versatility of that iron!

Great Trick for a NEW Dewy 5 Min Face Routine!

Have you ever tried to use your favorite powder blush on dewy finish skin???

Doesn't work so well does it?? 

Usually ends up looking to heavy, blotchy and/or streaky!

Here's my simple 5 minute Face for DEWY SKIN:

1. Tone, Mist, SPF Moisturize..
2. Cream Foundation - set t-zone and eye area with powder...
3. Rub your FAV lip colour on the back of your hand and use your ring finger to pick up a small amount of the pigment! With a dabbing motion apply it to the apples of your cheeks. Smooth and blend the colour with your clean middle finger! (Why buy a cream blush when you have a ton of beautiful lipstick shades in your cosmetics bag?)
4. Use the same technique with a light-shimmery lipstick to add a highlight on the cheekbones and inner eye!
5. Add Eye-Liner, Mascara and a lip colour - Gloss or Stick and tadaa!!! You're done!

Looks dewy, flawless, natural and it's super quick...

Have you tried this? Let me know what you think!
