J. LaMore Beauty Book: World Beat

(Click to view larger)

As our lookbook grows, we get more and more requests from J. LaMore friends and visitors about it: where to find an outfit or an accessory, how to do hair styles, makeup, etc. Since we all love beauty advice, we have decided to start the J. LaMore Beauty Book feature, which will be posted to J. LaMore Magazine following each new lookbook and will give product recommendations and beauty advice on how to best capture the look.

Our newest lookbook, "World Beat", is a collection of looks that capture exotic globetrotter style. We imagined this paired with a breezy, natural, sun-kissed look. Read on to find out how to re-create it:

 

1) Pixi Sheer Cheek Gel in Sun Kissed: The last thing you want to put on your face on a hot summer day is a bunch of face powder. Opt instead for a blush gel or cream that will give a light, sheer tint. This cheek gel will give you a dewy glow. [Target, $18]

2) Braided Updo: Braids were everywhere on the runways this spring. For a low-key look, try an undone, low braid. For a night out, try twisting it into an updo. So many options!

3) Stila Sun Bronzing Powder: There's nothing like sweeping some bronzer over your temples and cheeks for an insta-glow. [Sephora, $28]

4) Sephora by OPI Chic Print for Nails in Tiger: GRR baby! Add a little wild side to your look with OPI's nail stickies. No mani pedi needed! [Sephora, $15]

5) L'Occitane Jasmine Eau de Parfum: Mist yourself with an exotic scent, like Jasmine, which L'Occitane says is "intimately connected with the beauty of the greatest queens of Egypt." [L'Occitane, $66]
