It's been a fantastic week for Team GB and to celebrate we're taking a sneak peek into the style of one of our favourite female athletes, Jessica Ennis.
When you train as hard as Jess does (last time we checked being the best at 7 events was pretty hard!) there's little time for make-up or hair care so you need to get the basics right. Drinking plenty of water will keep skin looking fresh from the inside out but on days when you need a bit of help try using a BB cream, like this from Garnier. With SPF15 and a light colour this wonder product can have you glowing in no time.
She might be a badass on the athletics field but every girl likes to get glam! Jess looked stunning on the cover of Cosmopolitan last month and at the Sports Personality of the Year 2011 she turned the volume up with this dramatic smokey eye.
To recreate this look at home choose your colour palette - Jess has gone navy/dark blue but purples look great on brown or green eyes too. Blue eyes try using traditional black to make them really pop! Use the lighter colour on the inside of the eye and blend out the darker shade on the outer corner as high as you dare go!
The key to any smokey eye look is eyeliner and mascara - use a gel eyeliner like Maybelline Eyestudio Lasting Drama to sharpen up the look and define the eye. Easier to use than liquid eyeliner AND stays put on the waterline longer than pencil.
Finish off with a volume boosting mascara - our current favourite is the waterproof Volume Million Lashes from L'Oreal Paris. Two coats of this and you're good to last the night!
We'd love to see how you get on with Jess' look this weekend - so tweet us your photos @thesalonlook or post them on our Facebook page.
Happy Weekend!
