I JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE THE CLINIQUE LIP POP! There, I have declared my love for these fabulous lipsticks and primer in one. When I first laid my eyes on them I thought that the packaging alone was pure genius! I waste so much time digging around my own handbag as well as my lipstick bag in my pro kit trying to remember the name of the colour I am looking for. Having half the tube painted to match the lipstick inside is genius! I was blown away by how moisturizing these fragran

I worked at a Models Wanted makeup event with Clarins in The Hudsons Bay downtown Vancouver this past weekend. I met some twitter followers which was amazing. I love meeting my followers. I used the new Aquatic Treasures makeup collection and some other new favourites including Double Serum, the 3 Dot Liner which is fantastic for tight lining, Double Serum, Instant Light Lip Balm….. The event was partnered up with Elle Canada so after you had your makeup done you could pose f

I had the pleasure of working for Clarins Canada at a makeup event in Nordstrom Calgary this past weekend. It was such a fun event. I met so many lovely people and Nordstrom makeup department is superb, a makeup enthusiast dream actually. I wish I had more time to have a proper look. I like makeup events, it’s a very fun part of my job. I meet all types of people and I teach them how to apply makeup that suits them as an individual. All faces are different therefore all the m

Rouge Dior Brilliant are the perfect union of lip care and gloss. Like my beloved Dior Rouge Baume, these glosses are a mix of fine oils and other lovely ingredients like Vitamin E and a high shine gloss perfect for people that suffer from dry lips like me! I love to wear 775 Darling to brighten and wake up my face when all I can manage on a school morning is a little BB cream, blush and mascara. 468 Bonheur is another great shade. A soft nude pink that will compliment a smok

When it comes to the glorious world of makeup there are a few key words that get my attention very quickly. The first one of these word I am going to discuss today is Guerlain. Finding a Guerlain counter in Canada is like finding treasure. There are so many wonderful things that you must try if you even get the chance. In Europe it is one of the top go to brands so it is no surprise that visiting a Guerlain counter is like having a European mini break to me. The second word t

I designed these face charts with some fabulous people in mind that are attending a special DIOR dinner in Toronto showcasing the iconic DIOR BACKSTAGE PROS collection hosted by my good friend Dave Lackie. I wanted to be there in person to teach them how to apply the products, share my tips.... but since Toronto is a 6 hours flight away from where I am I have decided to stay home and came up with a ‘Virtual Makeup Masterclass’ in celebration of this dinner. I have picked 6 fa

The 2015 British BAFTA awards took place today. As I British Expat living in the Canada, I will explain what the BAFTAs actually are. BAFTA stands for British Academy of Film and Television Arts. The purpose according to Wikipedia is to “supports, promotes and develops the art form of the moving image – film, television and video games – by identifying and rewarding excellence inspiring practitioners and benefiting the public” It takes place once a year in London and the Pres

Here is a Rihanna Face Chart based on a picture a twitter follower ask me to recreate. I have never really look too closely at Rhianna before but her eyes are truly exquisite, a light brown almost hazel in colour. I remember when Rhianna first came out with that song Pon de Replay, I was working at Harvey Nichols in London and the makeup artists on the Guerlain were playing it on repeat for months and months, driving me crazy so I sort of disregarded her. Since this request I
