Illuminators are fabulous products. They help to give life to dull skin tone and bring a healthy shine and sparkle to your face. Back in the spring, Mandy let us all in on her lastest beauty secret for glowing skin: her Guerlain Météorites Powder. I've seen Mandy up close, so I can vouch for her choice of illuminators; the girl knows her beauty stuff. Which is why I, like many of...

I mentioned in my Staff Skincare article that I, like so many people have issues with my acne prone skin. As much as I treat and take care of my skin, I still have mean little spots that like to pop up here and there and ruin my day. It's hard to pin down one or even two causes of acne because (and here's some real bad news), there are so many - especially for those with sensitive skin. I...

A while back, I posted a video about the $20 makeup challenge that's been making the rounds in the YouTube world. Here's the scenario: you're traveling and your luggage has been lost (no!).  Oh, and you're also on a budget (double no!). You have $20 and $20 only to go out an purchase everything you'll need to create an acceptable look. This may not seem too...

Last week we wrapped up some great self tanner options for you to use during this beach season. Then we thought, why should we get to keep all this good stuff? Why not dole some our favourites out to you guys? That means that this week, two chicks will be luck enough to receive two of the items from that very same round up. 

Which two items?

A little while a go, I posted a forum asking chicks what they thought of the 'before and after' picture trend, because lately, I can't get enough of them! Seriously, my love for them is getting a bit out of hand, I will be featured on My Strange Addiction any time now. 

If you haven't really seen or heard about this trend, here's the down low: basically girls post...

Alright, ladies. Now, I don't want to get all "preachy, naggy mom" on you but there's something we need to discuss. It's about the Snooki-inspired orange-tastic tanned look that quite a few of us are guilty of.

Now that summer is upon us, it's time to bust out the shorts and bare those legs! Only, as any girl can attest to, this comes with a whole slew of issues. Most notably, the bumps and ingrown hairs that can arise thanks to the contraption that is the razor. This is doubly annoying if you have sensitive skin like myself. Nothing says 'sexy legs' like ingrown hairs, am I right...
