5 Minute Makeup Tutorial
The last time I wrote a post about quick and effortless beauty I must have listed a million products. At the time that’s what low-key beauty meant to me - pretty much an entire face of foundation, contour, eyeliner, mascara… you get the point.
These days I’m embracing the less is more philosophy and I’m more focused on proper application versus how much makeup I can pack on my face when I have no time to spare.
Everyone’s beauty routine is different of course but these are the products I consistently reach for when I’m pressed for time. They’re hard working products that are easy to work with and most importantly, blend well with fingers. No fancy brushes or Beauty Blenders required.
Here’s how my five-minute beauty routine goes.
BASE
If it’s night time, I skip the SPF. If it’s daytime, SPF is a must.
If I have less than five minutes, I skip the foundation and go straight into concealer but if I have time, I love MAC’s Face & Body foundation. It looks super natural on the skin and blends in beautifully just using fingers.
(TIME-SAVING TIP: opt for a tinted moisturizer like Garnier’s Ombrelle Ultra Light Lotion in SPF 60. Sadly it only comes in the shade light so fair skins are lucky here. I use a sheer foundation over mine because I like the broad-spectrum protection from UVA/ UVB in this lotion.)
BLUSH
Blush makes the face look awake, well rested, luminous and more youthful so I always take the time for blush.
Cream and liquid blushes are my favourite because they look very natural, especially in the summer.
I’ve been loving the new liquid blushes from NARS a lot. The shade Torrid is a pretty coral shade with shimmer that looks so natural and luminous on the skin.
Just dot a bit of blush on the fat of the cheeks and build up the layers. It sounds more time consuming than it is but practice makes perfect and I can now do this easily.
Start with a little bit of blush and pat it in with your fingers and repeat the process.
Now move onto concealer.
Doing your concealer next will help all of the makeup blend together more seamlessly like you’re glowing from within. You can always add more blush after you’re done your face if you feel you need more.
CONCEAL
I can skip foundation but I can’t skip concealer because I have dark under eyes and hyperpigmentation in some areas.
When I’m in a rush I dot a little bit of Tarte’s Shape Tape concealer under my eyes, nose and mouth.
Again DOT is the operative word here. Don’t do any of that silly triangle shit that YouTube beauty guru’s do. More product takes more time to blend in. Less product will not only look more natural but blend in quicker too.
I blend my concealer in with my fingers. The warmth of my fingertips allows the product to melt nicely into the skin.
Then I take a lightweight powder like Kat Von D’s setting powder with a small brush from Real Techniques to set the concealer so it doesn’t move. I set the concealer around my nose and mouth, and then powder my forehead and chin lightly and leave the rest.
EYES
I only started curling my lashes recently and I find it makes a big difference and makes me look more put together. Now I can’t skip this step unless I really have no time!
I start by curling the base, and then move up to the middle of the lashes, then the tip and then go back to curl the base again using my Shiseido eye lash curler. I like it much better than the Shu Uemera.
I always have to use a waterproof mascara to hold my curl, otherwise, my lashes will droop. Right now I’m loving Cover Girl’s Total Tease. CG makes my favourite mascaras of all time.
At this point, I’ll move onto brows as my mascara dries.
If I have extra time, I’ll line my upper waterline with a black eyeliner from Make Up For Ever and smudge it up to my lash line before applying mascara. It makes my eyes look bigger in a matter of seconds.
Finally, if I have a few more seconds to spare I’ll do a second coat of mascara using Marc Jacob’s Velvet Noir on the top and bottom lashes. It beefs up my lashes super quick and it doesn’t smudge or flake throughout the day.
BROWS
I kinda hate doing my brows but I have to because they’re sparse but also dark so bald spots are obvious. (I grew up in the 90s when thin brows were chic. There’s a whole generation of us out there who regret over plucking.)
My favourite brow pencil when I’m short on time is the Bobbi Brown Long Wear. I had kinda of sworn this brow pencil off because the tip is fat and blunt, therefore not great for precise brows, but awesome for a quick brow when I’m pressed for time. I go in with a light hand and make quick strokes to fill in the spareness.
(TIME-SAVING TIP: Do your brows after your first coat of mascara. That way while your mascara is drying, you can work on the brows and then go back to your lashes for a second coat afterward. You’ll get fatter, longer lashes if you apply the second coat when your lashes are already dry.)
ALMOST DONE. PROMISE!
LIPS
I love a good gloss when I’m short on time because I can skip the lip liner and not have to worry about being precise with my lipstick.
I’m never monogamous when it comes to lip colours and I always have a few shades on me at all times.
I love orange-reds, brown-reds, and red-plums shades to brighten up my complexion and bring a little more colour to my face. My favourite glosses are the Chanel Rouge Coco’s and the NARS x Charlotte Gainsbourg gloss in Promise, a red-plum.
I apply them from the wand, directly onto my lips and then smudge the gloss around my lips with my fingers for a natural look.

WORTH IT?! Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer
Article by Diana Aldea
Photos by Nathalie Martin
Rich people are amazing. James Dyson dropped $100-million and set 130 British engineers to make the next great hair dryer. With that kind of cash and manpower, he could've developed an app that diagnoses car problems. Or a washer/dryer that sends you text notifications. But I'm not here to talk about shoulda/woulda/couldas, I'm here to tell you about the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer.
Five bills is a lot to spend on anything, especially a hair dryer. When I saw the roll out of the first advertisements for the Supersonic I swore up and down that there is no way, no how I'd ever spend that much on a hair tool. But after using it for a week, I'm all "take my money, Dyson!"
First things first, all the reviews you're reading are true. It's super light, it cuts down the amount of time it takes to dry your hair by a significant amount, and it's beautiful. It also sounds like a vacuum cleaner (I see what you did there Dyson), and it has intelligent heat control technology, which helps prevent extreme heat damage to protect your hair’s natural shine.
Prior to the Supersonic I had a healthy and loving relationship with my Drybar Buttercup Blow Dryer. Using the Supersonic felt like cheating, and while I don't condone it among people in relationships, it felt damn good with my Dyson. So I broke up with Buttercup and I'm going steady with Supersonic. After the first time using it, my hair was almost too sleek. If that's your thing, you'll be so into this. I like my hair full of ridiculous volume, and I was able to achieve that with the diffuser attachment which is included with the Supersonic. Life changer guys, seriously.
Listen, I know the money it costs is a huge commitment, but that's what Sephora return policies are for. Once you step into the future there's absolutely no going back.
Wanna know more? Here's some of Dyson's carefully curated marketing copy. They ain't lying tho.
The Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer has intelligent heat control technology, which helps prevent extreme heat damage to protect hair’s natural shine. The temperature is measured 20 times a second and transmits this data to the microprocessor, which intelligently controls the patented compact heating element from reaching extreme, hair damaging temperatures. The powerful tool moves over 13 liters of air every second. Combined with Dyson’s patented Air Multiplier™ technology, air is amplified threefold, creating a high pressure, focused jet of air for controlled, precise, drying and styling. The digital motor V9 is on average six times faster, a third of the weight, and half the size of other hair dryer motors. Due to its compact size, Dyson was able to put the motor in the handle, making the dryer feel balanced in your hands.
Dyson has created three precisely engineered magnetic attachments with 16 patents pending, to further control the airflow, allowing you to effortlessly achieve a range of different styles. The smoothing nozzle uses smooth, wide air for a sleek finish, while the styling concentrator is for precise styling to shape hair one section at a time without worrying about disturbing the rest. The diffuser disperses air evenly around curls to gently dry hair and improves definition. With heat shield technology, the surfaces of the attachments stay cool—even during close-up styling.
The Dyson Supersonic also has a removable filter at the bottom of the dryer that notifies you when it needs to be cleaned. It features four heat settings, three airflow settings, a cold shot, and ionizer, all with 1600 watts of power. This product comes with a professional-length nine-feet power cord and a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
Narciso Poudree | Last minute Mother's Day gift idea
Every year my brothers and I go a little overboard on Mother's Day and spoil our mum. It's not even about the gifts but more of the gestures.
One year my illustrator/ tattoo artist brother framed one of his works of art for her. Oh man, she gushed about that piece for a long time! (I don't blame her because I wanted it for myself! LOL).
Another year we took her to the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO to the locals) to see the Picasso exhibit, one of her favorite artists.
Then there's my father, making fancy meals for her and buying her roses and white wine because red gives her a headache.
And let's not forget my other brother waiting on her hand and foot (ok I'm exaggerating) but seriously, we love spoiling her!
Hopefully, you got some good ideas on my Mother's Day gift guide posted earlier in the week. If you're still not sure how to spoil mama, I have a quick last minute idea for you - Narciso's Poudree perfume.
I was at Saks last weekend getting something for my mum. They had custom engraving on perfume bottles that day and I was surprised to see five bottles, I kid you not, five bottles of Narciso Poudree in the engraving queue.
Then yesterday, a bottle of Poudree happens to appears in my mailbox along with a beautiful necklace that says 'mama'. Honestly, my mum is pretty spoiled this time of year, partly because of my work as a beauty blogger, but mainly because we all pitch in to make her feel special on Mother's Day.
Happy Mother's Day to all of the Mother's out there. Whatever you decided to get for mama, I'm sure she'll love it. ; )
Dewy skin feat. Chanel CC Cream + Le Blanc Makeup Base
When was the last time you looked in the mirror and thought, "I can see my foundation!" Ya, we've all been there and it sucks. It's obvious when makeup is sticking to dry patches and settling into fine lines. Worse yet, the foundation doesn't match and it really looks like makeup, not skin.
Ugh.
It's the reason I've favoured BB and CC creams, and sheer water-based foundations for everyday wear for as long as I can remember.
Sadly (for me and anyone who as to look at my skin), it's only in the last couple of weeks that I'm realizing that as sheer as my makeup is, it doesn't matter when I've been over-powdering to "set my base". Tell me, why are we taught such assinine beauty tips that benefit no one?
WHY?!
With that, I've been on a mission to see how natural I can get my makeup to look these days.
Yes, the no-makeup-makeup goals are real over at WoahStyle and I've been experimenting in more ways that I can count.
It was on a press trip recently and I happened to forget my foundation. I learned two important things that day: 1) I can go without foundation and just use concealer, and 2) Chanel makes a kickass CC Cream!
Let me back up for a sec.
One of the ladies I was on the trip with, was sympathetic to my no foundation situation and offered me some of her Chanel CC Cream. I was flattered by the kind gesture but only managed to yelp "but we're not the same colour!", instead of the obvious "thank you so much."
(I'm a little durpy like that... Sorry Katherine!)
I politely declined and went sans foundation for the evening but the idea of a Chanel CC Cream, and the fact Katherine has the most amazing skin I've ever seen, wouldn't leave me mind.
Upon returning home I ran to my nearest Chanel counter and paid $70 for a 30mL bottle of the most expensive makeup that I currently own. BTW, I have about 15 bottles of foundation in my collection and this one is by far my fave.
The CHANEL CC Cream looks like skin.
It has SPF 50 and UVA/ UVB protection.
It's luminous.
It's sheer, semi-matte and semi-dewy all in one.
It's fucking phenomenal and Diana, my bff, kept commenting on how good my skin looked and swore she'd never buy it.
And then she did.
Honestly, this is makeup made me fall in love with the Chanel beauty brand all over again.
I recently bought the Le Blanc Brightening Makeup Base to amp up that youthful glow that's so hard to obtain past the age of 35. I got mine in the shade ROSE because I have yellow undertones in my skin and it's best to bring out the brightness with a pink colour corrector. It has an SPF of 40 and I love it.
I'm back on the Chanel beauty bandwagon again and I'm strapping on my seatbelt for the long haul because my skin has never looked better. Of course, proper skincare is a necessity but that's a whole other post! ;)

Marc Jacobs Beauty new Coconut primer + bronzer + highlighter (review)
Haven't you heard, matte is soooo last season, lol. There's something really sexy and youthful about glowing skin, not just for summer, but year round. I've just changed my makeup routine and I'm all about dewy skin these days.
I'll powder my t-zone because it's oily prone, and then I leave the rest of my skin sans powder, allowing the luminosity of my sheer foundation and cream blush to come through.
A few days ago, I got a PR package from Marc Jacobs Beauty containing four of the items from his coconut collection - the primer, highlighter, and limited edition bronzer and brush.
I'm a die-hard Marc fan and at 13 years old, MJ was the one designer who's collection fully resonated with me - mainly because it was the 90's and I was going through a grunge stage of my own, but still...
My first designer bag was also MJ and when his beauty line launched, I bought deep into the collection because his formulas are reliable and the colours are beautiful and easy to wear.
In this post we're going to look at MJ's latest coconut-based products and chat about that summery glow that we all want.

Marc Jacobs Beauty Under(cover) Perfecting Coconut Face Primer
$55 cad / $44 usd
I've heard lots of great things about this primer - that's it's hydrating and works nicely on the skin. The description on Sephora says that it's ideal for normal to dry skin, but I have combination skin with an oily t-zone and it worked well for me.
I love how it's light in texture and feels like a lotion on the skin. Even though it's coconut-based, this primer doesn't have a strong, overpowering scent, which I really appreciate.
My makeup lasted all day and looked fresh and dewy, which is really all I want these days.

Marc Jacobs Beauty Dew Drops Coconut Gel Highlighter
$55 cad / $44 usd
I have a love /hate relationship with highlighters. Love because they give skin a really luminous glow when applied properly. Hate because I have textured skin and the wrong highlighter will bring that out.
With that being said, I've been doing some research on makeup application and I learned that using a liquid or cream highlighter, lightly dabbed on the cheekbones and then layered with a blush on the cheeks, will create a glow-from-within effect that looks beautiful on the skin.
This Gel Highlighter is highly shimmery and has a beautiful golden colour that can be too much on its own, but when dabbed lightly on the high points of the face, it looks amazing and very natural!
Just take the smallest amount and apply to the skin with your fingers for an amazing glow.
marc jacobs beauty
Bronzer Brush + O!Mega Bronzer
Marc Jacobs Beauty Limited Edition Bronzer Brush No.12, $92 cad / $78 usd
Limited Edition O!Mega Bronzer $59 cad / $49 usd
I have been wanting to try the O!Mega bronzer for longer than I can imagine and the only reason I haven't bought it is because I'm a die hard fan of Benefit's Hoola Bronzer.
Marc Jacob's released his limited edition, coconut-scented bronzer in a new shade with white packaging for summer. While I haven't used it yet, I've heard many great things and based on the fact it's already sold out in a lot of retailers, I'm sure I'll love it.
Finally MJ, also released his No.12 bronzer brush in white to go along with the bronzer. It's also limited edish so make sure you grab yours before it goes, because it's such a beautiful, well-functioning brush.
I won't deny it's expensive at $90 (CAD), but I did buy the black one a couple of years ago and I use it all of the time. So worth it.
In case you're wondering, I completely intend on keeping the white brush because; A) it's a great keepsake, and B) I can rotate between the two No.12's as one needs a wash. I know. I'm nuts.

Oily Skin Loves This! Ole Henriksen's new Balance skincare
I recently picked up Sali Hughes book, Pretty Honest, and read it cover to cover over the course of a weekend. What I thought was going to be a fun, fluffy read turned into something really informative and valuable in terms of skincare and what I've been doing wrong all of these years. I cringe now knowing that I've unintentionally enlarged my pores by using oil-based creams on my combination skin for too many years. Alas, ignorance isn't bliss when it comes to skincare and I've now started reading ingredient lists to make sure the products I'm putting on my skin are suitable for my skin type. With my new found knowledge I became determined to help Geoff's skin get under control. His skin produces oil quickly, especially in his T-zone, and by the time he's home from a long day at the office, his forehead is an oil slick. Anyone with oily/ combo skin will the feeling and how frustrating it is to get that excess sebum under control. Well, in the midst of cleaning out my skin care products I get a PR package from Ole Henriksen, a brand I've heard lots of good things about, but have never tried until now. In this post, I’m going to run through Ole’s new Balance skincare line, as well as give you some tips on how to get your oily/ combination skin under control. If you want to learn more about your skin type and some holy grail beauty items, I’d suggest you pick up Sali’s book. I can’t get enough of her right now and I have her second book in my Amazon shopping cart as I write this.
Ole Henriksen Find Your Balance Oil Control Cleanser, $30 CND / $25 USD
This gentle foaming face wash reduces oil, deep cleans, and unclogs pores. It contains glycolic and lactic acid to help loosen and lift dead skin cells that can clog pores over time. Eucalyptus leaf and peppermint oil make this cleanser super refreshing, which is always nice in the mornings.
Ole Henriksen Pore-Balance Facial Sauna Scrub, $34 CND / $28 USD
This scrub warms up when it makes contact with damp skin and cools down quickly for a spa-like experience. The scrub refines pores with a blend of glycolic and lactic acid to help loosen and lift dead skin cells that can clog pores over time. It's formulated with volcanic sand, Green Fusion Complex, and neem seed oil to help absorb excess oil, unclog pores, and minimize the appearance of pores. Recommended use 2-3 times a week. If you have combination skin like me, apply this scrub only to your T-zone or where you're the oiliest.
Ole Henriksen Balancing Force Oil Control Toner, $32 CND / $26 USD
This concentrated astringent effectively removes excess oil, refines and detoxifies pores without drying skin. It's formulated Green Fusion Complex, and neem seed oil and a powerful blend of salicylic, glycolic and lactic acids to freshen skin and absorb oil.
Ole Henriksen Counter Balance Oil Control Hydrator, $42 CND / $34 USD
This lightweight, mattifying hydrator contains Rosehip fruit extract to reduce oil production, fight shine, and minimize the appearance of pores. Like all of the other products of the new Balance line, it's also formulated with Green Fusion Complex, neem seed oil and powerful acids to keep pores clear.

The curse of the Levi's 501 wedgie
Growing up in the 90s, grunge music, band tee's and denim was my world. (Not much different from now I guess.) I used to dress like a boy and I lived in old jeans and oversized band tees. I supplemented my closet with pieces from Zellers, Sunrise Records, thrift stores and my dad's closet. Yup. While most girls were playing in their mum's closet, I was rummaging through my dad's old jeans. My favourite pair were these loose Levi's that were super worn in, complete with paint splatters and rips in the knee. I thought they looked amazing until I turned around one day and looked at my butt, only to realized it looked like I had a massive wedgie. UGH! Then I realized all of my other Levi's also gave me wedgie butt!! I stopped wearing most of my Levi's at that point and became really conscious of buying only derrière flattering jeans. I did though keep around my dad's old Levi's because they were so cool and so comfortable and embodied that 90s grunge look that I was so obsessed with.
Twenty-three years later I find myself in the department store, taking a pair of Levi's to the fitting room to see if the wedgie curse is still there. It is. But god dammit, they're so ridiculously comfortable and when you live in skinny jeans like me, you embrace comfort and fabric being away from your legs for once as opposed to being encased in it. I've been rocking them almost every day since I got them and at this point, I could care less about wedgie butt.
WHAT I'M WEARING:
Levi's 501 CT cropped jean (exact here)
The Kooples leather jacket
Gucci gold Princetown slippers
Chaser black tank
Marc by Marc Jacobs red + black striped bag (circa 2015)

Smashbox Be Legendary lip glosses: Review + Swatches
In my line of work I see a lot of PR packages but it's not often that I get excited about the PR box itself. This stunning one here is from Smashbox and features lip art by @vladamua, aka, the woman who created the image of gloss dripping from the lips.
Let's talk about what's in said box - 17 shades of Smashbox's new Be Legendary lip glosses, available in two finishes - metal and pigments. The shades range from cool to warms, and neutrals to metallic blues and even shimmery greys. They retail for $28 ($24 in USD), and can be found at most counters that carry the Smashbox brand.
The formula is thick and highly pigmented but doesn't feel uncomfortable and sticky on the lips. I should elaborate because yes, it's a sticky gloss, but it's not overly sticky and apparent once on the lips and almost feels hydrating. The glosses have a very faint fragrance to them but it's non-offensive and hardly noticeable.
One swipe of gloss gives off perfect colour payoff, even on the blue colour, which I was really impressed with.
As always, I'd recommend using a lip liner with these to prevent the gloss from bleeding and to help it last longer as well.
The Be Legendary glosses aren't an overtly high shine vinyl finish, but that's fine by me because it means the formula is perfect for every day wear - a nude mid-toned pink like Mauve Wife is great for the office, while Bad Apple, a bright red shade, is perfect for a night out.
Overall, these glosses are fab and just what I expect from Smashbox. I just hope they expand their colour range because right now I find the shades almost too similar too each other. I personally would have wanted to see more colour range from their new line of glosses and considering they put out 17 colours, there should have definitely been more versatility in terms of colours. But that's it, that's my only complaint with these.
Go check them out if you're at a Smashbox counter and let me know what you think!
SPRING TREND ALERT: Gloss is everywhere, from fashion to beauty, eyes, lips and even hair. Put your mattes away because Spring/ Summer 2017 is all about natural skin with a sheer flush of colour to the cheeks and a vibrant glossy lip.
