Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basLast year Pantone's colour of the year was Tangerine Tango, a bright and sunny orange shade. This year, they've gone the opposite way with an energetic and intense jewel toned emerald!
With the neons that were raging in the summer and the oxblood that took over for fall, it's a new option and we're loving this breath of fresh air! It's lively, vivid and sophisticated all at...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThough I don't use powder all that often, it's an essential in my makeup bag for setting my makeup, giving it a longer lasting finish and reducing shine. And... I just ran out of my powder. Darn.
In light of the fact that I've just used up my powder, I thought I'd make it the subject of this week's Review of the Week! By now you should know the drill but if you're...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWith all the glitter you'll no doubt be trying out on your eyes (or lips, or face, 'cause why not) for the holiday parties, I thought it was a good idea that this week we give out two skincare focused prize packs. Mind you, we're going to be a little sneaky and not tell you exactly what products you'll be getting! What I can tell you is the value of each prize pack.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe holidays are a time for three things: eggnog, shopping and glitter. Coincidentally, those three things are also my favourites things of all time.
When it comes to glitter and the holidays, I think all rules go out the window. Want to do something dramatic and over the top? Girl, I support you. My go to holiday look this year will be a glitterfied cat eye. But a full lid of sparkle or...

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 basWhile the holiday season might be best known for carols, gingerbread men and eggnog, it should really should be known for the amazing amount of gorgeous beauty gift sets that come out. This is the prime season to stock up on all sorts of limited edition products or get some great bargains with value sets and palettes.
So, while you're out at the mall crossing all those names off your...

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. This means that I tend to hit the snooze button a few more times than I should. Tell me I'm not alone, here!
So, when I...
