Dear Acne,
Let's get one thing straight: you and I are not friends. No matter how long or how much you hang around me, we will still not be friends. I don't like you.
Sincerely,
Alexandra
I've mentioned before how oily and acne prone my skin is and how I've tried pretty much every acne product/system/DIY option out there to try and rid...

Blush is probably one of the most reviewed items and it's not hard to understand why. With the colour and definition it gives your face, it's like an instant face lift and healthy glow in a container! Cream blush is a great alternative to a powder because of the natural finish it has and it's also fabulous because it's an...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basAs you might already know, if there is one beauty product I can't go without, it's a bold coloured lipstick! In fact, when I'm running late in the morning (as I often to do), I usually go with just a simple, deep red lip to bring some focus and colour to my face.
Because I'm all about the lipstick, I need some new recommendations. What brands and products are your faves? I...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI was recently doing my obligatory newspaper reading (ok, you caught me, I was looking at my Twitter feed) when I stumbled upon an article on primers. So, here's something: I never actually used primers on a daily basis until about a year or two ago. I received a sample of Make Up For Ever HD Microperfecting Primer from Sephora and all of a sudden I started noticing how much longer...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIt should come as no surprise to you that when it comes to beauty, I look for the easiest possible way to do things. I like my fashion and beauty quick and simple, especially in the mornings because (like many of you, I am sure) I like my sleep more than anything else.

So, when I...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basYou might remember from last week that we've recently switched it up with our contests and prizes. We decided to surprise the chicks and instead of showing you exactly what products you can win each week, we'll only be revealing the value.
This week we'll be doing the same, but we will also be giving you a few clues throughout the week via Facebook and/or Twitter to let you know...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basYou've got your LBD and maybe a sparkly accessory (or two) all set for the various holiday parties ahead. There's just one essential missing: fabulous nails!
The holidays are a great time to stock up or add to your polish collection because many brands come out with limited editions or value sets (read: great bargain!). We're specifically loving the deep, jewel tones for winter...
