Eyeshadow (

Eyeshadow color range is seemingly endless, but eyeliner colors just haven't kept pace, which poses quite the conundrum for those among the colored-eyeliner-loving set (myself included). So when I spy a particularly fab shade of metallic purple or...
Beauty fiends like myself anxiously await the holiday season to see what kinds of gorgeousness the beauty brands will unleash upon us. Each season, the brands seem to one-up themselves by showcasing ever-showy baubles, palettes and trinkets – each one...
I kind of love Kat Von D's "stickin-it-to-the-man" sense of style (read: tattoos-a-plenty and full-throttle makeup), which appeals to my inner goth-rebel. Those same sensibilities show up in her makeup line for Sephora, and her newest holiday...
You know that glossy eye look you sometimes see on models at runway fashion shows? Outside of layering on Vaseline over eyeshadow, I've always wondered how makeup artists get that sheeny look. Now, I have the answer: Chanel's Eye Gloss , from...
Ah spring, how I love thee. Though I could do without the severe case of seasonal allergies you've bestowed on me, I relish the sunshine, flowers and of course, all the pretty makeup you bring. Case in point: Tarte's Spring Greening Palette ,...
I honestly never thought I'd have the need to revisit my toddler years and wear a bib again, but this new product called Shadow Shields has me regressing back to the times of Mr. Rogers and Polka Dot Door . Except, this isn't a bib that's...
Some swear by loose eyeshadows for their ability to build color on the eyes from subtle to intense. Me? I've never been a huge fan, for fear of the telltale shadow trail on my cheeks post-application. But since using Prescriptives's Making Eyes...
While rumours of Stila's demise may have been greatly exaggerated – (the latest reports have the cult-beloved makeup line up for sale) – all this talk of its potential shuttering has me nostalgic for Kitten eyeshadow and looking for a potential substitute...
Who doesn't love to vamp it up once in a while with a fetching smokey eye? But unless you're Pat McGrath, creating those runway-ready looks can be a bit like playing Deal or no Deal (minus the bald, germaphobe host and chance at cash). But you...
Sorry for the dearth in posting this week my dears. Life sometimes gets in the way of blogging and this weekend, orchestrating a move into my new home had me focussed on other more pressing tasks. That said, a move turns one's life into chaos, and...
There's something about Pop Beauty products that's like candy to me. I think it has to do with the fun, sparkly, starburst-like packaging, and of course, the rainbow of shimmering shades inside of their eye and cheek palettes. And this Liner Cake...
I'm all about a good champagne eyeshadow – it's the best all-over-your-eye base shade. Funnily enough, I'd never tried the humdinger of champagne shades, Stila's Kitten, which has been consistently favorited by A-listers and makeup artists...
Recently, I had the chance to get one of those freebie makeovers at the YSL counter at my local Holt Renfrew (basically Canada's answer to Neiman Marcus). I happened to be buying some Touche Eclat, so I decided to sit a spell and see what the gorgeously...
We all know that the smokey eye is all the rage right now, but lovelies, there are some days when I need that extra lift and just can't bear to go to the dark side of shadow. Which is why I usually turn to my tried-and-true shadow routine of ivory...
Sometimes, I come across a single product or collection that elicits that kid-in-a-candy-store feeling: squeals of delight at the mere sight of its righteousness. And lovelies, this happened to me after I stumbled upon the new MAC collection Flashtronic...
