One of the easiest things to do when trying to get on the ‘healthy’ food train, is to incorporate smoothies. Smoothies are an amazing way to maximise your vitamin and nutrient intake. I’ve loved smoothies for years – fruit smoothies, green smoothies, detox smoothies, alcoholic smoothies (yes they exist) and the list goes on. When my sister and I started the mainly smoothie-based Harley Pasternak’s…

5 Things That I’m Loving from Maybelline Fall
You may remember a little sneak preview of the Maybelline Fall launches I gave last spring when I attended Toronto Fashion Week. I finally got my hands on some of these goodies as they’re now available at most drugstores in Canada and the USA (and have been since July). While it was hard to choose between all the new products, I’ve narrowed my picks from the…

Maybelline Creamy Mattes Are Back!
Fall means one thing for lipstick junkies – intense lip colours, and for me, the bolder the better. This is why when I heard that Maybelline was launching a limited edition Maybelline Creamy Mattes Collection for fall/winter, the excitement was a little too much to contain. After a few squeals hearing the news, my husband turns to me and says, “you have 100 lipsticks, why are you…

Goodbye Tweezers, Hello Brows
In case you didn’t get the memo, the 1990s thin eyebrow era is long gone. Today we’re trying everything in our beauty regime to make our over-tweezed brows grow back, but unfortunately getting those sought after celebrity brows with natural hair, is easier said than done! Lucky for us, the makeup industry has heard our cries of regret (for tweezing almost every last hair we…

Back to School Shopping for Maybelline Baby Lips
My favourite thing about the summer coming to an end is back-to-school shopping. No, I don’t have kids and yes I am 36…BUT I have great memories of being a kid and picking up all my school supplies for my first day of school. I’m also a stationery junkie so what better time to stock up but in the back-to-school sales when the selection is great?…

Maybelline Color Blur Matte Lip Pencils
I remember first learning to smudge in the 80s when my mom would blur (or smudge as she would say) her eye pencils to lessen the intensity of harsh lines. The best pencils would always be those with a smudger on the other side (we always looked out for Lancome eye pencils at Duty Free). As we know, all trends come back at some point…

High vs Low: La Palette Nude 2 vs The Blushed Nudes vs Naked 3
After receiving such great feedback from my first high vs low eyeshadow comparison, where I compared Urban Decay Naked 2 with L’Oreal Paris La Palette Nude 1 – I decided that it’s time to look at The Urban Decay Naked3 and the recent additions to the blushed nudes eyeshadow palettes. You might say that BLUSH is the new neutral. I’ve seen this across the news-stands across all industries…
