If you just don’t know what to do with your hair anymore, why not go for a side swept shag? It’s hot, refreshing, and very sexy. Not only that, but it’s also very easy to maintain! Here’s how to! This modern-day side-swept haircut offers a fresh and jaunty attitude that I fell in love with instantly. Created by Charles Worthington and aptly named the urban shag, it’s a contemporary trend that embodies carefree sophistication and just plain fun. The texture is achieved with a choppy “razor cutting” method, in which hair is cut at an angle to fram...

This holiday season shine in the greatest color of all: red. Not only does this color make a statement everywhere and anywhere, but it’s also very bold. So don’t be afraid to wear a little red lipstick for your holiday parties this season. Cult classic colours make a comeback. Think cherry, fire engine and vampy red. Three finishes reign supreme. A matte texture is great for creating a retro look. Creamy lip color is the ultimate in comfort. An ultra glossy sheen is evocative of patent leather. Sharply defined contouring. Reminiscent of Greta Garbo, this pout is easy to do w...

Pores are just annoying. The problem is that if you don’t treat them as soon as they appear, they get larger and larger. Especially if you have dry skin, enlarged pores can look even worse. You can start minimizing your pores  by using a daily facial scrub such as St. Ives  Apricot Cleanser which goes deep into the skin to scrub and get rid of dirt as well as prevent breakouts. Don’t use any makeup which can clog your pores. If possible, use mineral or hypoallergenic makeup.  This will help you in your process of minimizing your pores. Get rid of all the makeup and products that...

The holidays are fast approaching and there are many things to do! Shop, get ready for Christmas, and of course, you have to look your best during this time. Parties, galas, and of course New Year’s Eve are all coming up and you need to know how to look your best with beautiful holiday makeup. This holiday season is all about glitz and glamor so put on your best dress and get the makeup going. A smoky eye is perfect for a cocktail party with your cocktail dress and your strappy sandals.

These days it’s hard to find that perfect fragrance with so many different scents out there and that’s why I love Pink Manhattan Perfume. It’s ultra soft, ultra feminine- it’s everything I want in a perfume! A luscious combination of top notes that include fresh peach and French vanilla, mid-notes of succulent flowers such as pink hibiscus and gardenia and a bottom note of soft, powdery-skin musk. t’s deliciously sweet but in a very grown-up way. If you love sweet scents, this is the one for you! Created by famed New York singer/songwriter Sali Oguri, Pink ...

Sarah Michelle Gellar hasn’t really been a style star. She’s had her share of hits as well as misses, but nothing too spectacular or even interesting. But when I came upon this picture of Miss Gellar, I just couldn’t help myself. The black feathery cocktail dress that she’s wearing here is just unacceptable(well from my point of view at least). I don’t understand what is with celebrities and feather dresses; they look so tacky, so ugly! Some of you might remember Kimora Lee Simmons donning a similar dress at the Vanity Fair party…and I have to say tha...

St. Ives beauty products have been my favorites for a long time, because their ingredients...

So we all know that Evian makes water, but did you know that they also make beauty products as well? As far as I know, Evian has now launched a skin care line complete with face wash, moisturizer…the works. So does this product do justice to its fancy name and water? I just bought the Evian Oxygenating Cleansing Gel and I have to say that I love it like no other product. It works great for both face and eyes, so you don’t have to worry about getting tears, and it eliminates any trace of makeup and dirt on your skin. This gentle and soap-free gel removes makeup, excess oil a...
