Stila Glitter Eyeshadow Review

Jan 28, 2013
I love shimmer shadow. Especially for an evening out, I like to apply a subtle hint of sparkle over my regular matte shadow to create dimension and brighten the eye. This is a look that anyone at any age should try. That said, when choosing the formula, make sure you don’t see actual dots of glitter in the pot. The particles should be so tiny that when you dust the shadow on lids, it glistens. Stila’s new glitter shadows are the perfect example. Read More

Lise Watier Press Trip in Montreal — What To Buy & What I did

Nov 9, 2012
Day two started out with a lovely brunch at the Ritz with Madame Watier (shown above). I was impressed by Lise Watier, not only because she’s the founder of this successful 40-year-old company and is still involved in the product creation, but also because she’s on a mission to empower women and has taken this a step further by forming her own charity. As for the products, here’s what stood out to me… Read More

Miracle Whip Face Mask

Oct 5, 2012
There are books devoted to beauty recipes you can make from kitchen ingredients. Avocado and olive oil are some of the most popular. I’m not a regular do-it-yourself-er kind of girl, but my friend Ann, who knows her stuff when it comes to at-home masks, told me about one facial mask recipe, and it’s worth sharing. Read More

Fall’s Best Beauty Trends

Sep 19, 2012
The Spring 2013 fashion shows may be coming to close, but we’re just beginning to pull out our fall wardrobes (hello, leather weather). Stash your pastel eyeshadows, coral bullets, and think extremes for this fall’s beauty palette. EYES: black and blue, geometric shapes From the clothes to the makeup, the IT color combo for fall is black and blue. For makeup, the best way to wear this trend is to focus on your eyes. At Giorgio Armani and Anna Sui we saw a unique take on the classic cat eye using these shades. Skip shadow and go straight to liner, which should be drawn in a more geometric shape. To make this eye look wearable for everyday, make a “v” shape by lining half of your top lash line and the outer fourth of your bottom lashline. Define and thicken the “v” in the outside corner. Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner and Lancome Le Crayon Khol are solid picks.                         LIPS: bold or bare Read More
