Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI believe that foundation was the first beauty product that I ever purchased with my very own money. So, it holds a special place in my heart. Back then, I used CoverGirl Clean Oil-Control Liquid Makeup and Annabelle Skin True Foundation. Now, my foundation of choice is Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Makeup which I am head over heels in love with it.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWhen I gave you the deets on what I put on my face everyday, I didn't lie when I said my go-to foxy up product was a red lipstick. No matter where I go, I always keep a bold red in my purse. After all, you never know who you're going to meet. If I run into a prince, I'm going to be prepared.
My current favourite is Make Up For Ever Aqua Rouge in 08 Iconic Red. I think of it as my signature...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIt's the holiday season which means one thing: party time. It's time to get together, share a few drinks, do some dancing (perhaps some mistletoe kissing?) and have a plain ol' excellent time. Of course, you'll need a soundtrack to your evening - we've got you covered with a mix of retro and new holiday jams.
Hit that play button, chicks!

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWe recently had the very fabulous Lauren Rivietz tell us how to keep your cool while planning the perfect party this holiday season. Which got us thinking about our own holiday parties and how we were going to bring some personality and flavour to the season. We already discussed the quintessential dinnerware and table setting for the holidays, but there is so much more when it comes to creating...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basSo, you've gotten (or are going to get for us procrastinators) all your major presents for the holidays. You know what you're picking up for your parents, significant other and even your siblings. Well, then look at you, you efficient and proactive person, you!
You think you're doing pretty well, don't you? Until you realise, uh oh - what about your happy hour partner at work? Your friends...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basEvery year, there is always one day when I snap out of denial and I can officially say to myself: 'ok, it's winter'. The day that happens is the day that I wake up and seemingly overnight, my skin has turned to scales and my hair to something that one might use to light a fire (yup, it's that dry).
Instead of succumbing to the dryness this winter, I asked Garnier styling and colour...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI've got a big girl crush on Marion Cotillard, so anything she does is pretty much acceptable. Even this mismatched, kind of crazy outfit is totally up my alley. Marion has that perfect Parisian attitude to pull it off and the looks to wear it with confidence.
It's a mixture of textures and shapes which should make it totally off the wall, but I think it works. Crocheted?...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basDo you chicks have a signature scent? I've always wanted to find my signature scent but I've never been able to pinpoint that perfect perfume. Still, I'm on the hunt. Lately, I've been alternating between Lush Sikkim Girls and Balenciaga Flora Botanica. I love both of them, but I'm not quite sure if they're good enough to be at the top of the list.
I need some guidance. This week, I...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThis morning, I pressed the snooze button about 5 times. I ran into the shower, put on whatever I could find and left for work. So basically, I am wearing the sweatshirt I wore to bed and the skinny jeans I wore yesterday. Class act, I know.
This could have been avoided if I had prepped some super easy, ready to go outfits for my late mornings. It's an idea I got from one of our fave beauty gurus

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWe've been talking a lot about moisturizing when it comes to your body and face. What we haven't yet discussed is one of the essential moisturizer products that I know we all have at least two of in our purses: lip balm.
Lip balms are a go-to all year round, but they become extra important in the winter. And hey, Christmas is almost upon us and mistletoe is bound to pop up...
