What do designers Zac Posen, Thakoon, Peter Pilotto all have in common (besides all being designers)? They all did tri-colour eye shadow looks on the runway. The look is dramatic and definitely not for a makeup wall flower. We tried it out in a few different ways with bold, smokey and muted tones. We like the look overall, but think maybe it is best left for the club, not the office.

Have you ever noticed that runway makeup looks great on the runway, but doesn't really apply to real life? We copied Alexander McQueen's beauty look for his Fall/Winter ready to wear collection. His white eye liner and nude lips make the models look ghostly and also a little ethereal. How do you think it looks on us?
Jenni usually wears her black cat eye liner to the office. Her nude lips...

In honour of the late and great Amy Winehouse we’re tried out her signature winged eye liner style. While Amy’s eye makeup was bold, occasionally messy and paired with a beehive hairdo, when used in moderation the cat eye liner is a sassy way to draw attention to your eyes.
Some chicks like to keep their lips neutral looking and others like to be dare-devils and add a pop of color. No matter what color you want on your lips, you can't deny that lipstick is the essential tool to achieving that look.
This week, we want to know what color, and brand of lipsticks are worth the rave and which ones are not up to par. Your reviews are greatly appreciated and can really...

Toners - A lot of times people will skip this step when it comes to skin care, but in my opinion, it is an important step. After you wash your face with a cleanser and before you apply moisturizer, toner is what you need. A toner's sole purpose is to freshen your complexion by diminishing pores and removing the excess oil and grime from your face, thus eliminating build-ups of dirt and...
Who hasn’t wished at some point to have longer lashes? Just looking at the number of reviews for mascara on ChickAdvisor it's pretty clear how many of us women want to plump and lengthen our eyelashes. While mascara may do the trick for many, some may find that there’s no amount of makeup that will help them achieve their dream. Last year Latisse launched in Canada, Claire Danes has been a...
