How to Get the Bond Girl Look

10 comments

Wednesday November 14, 2012 by Alexandra C.

With the newest release of the Bond empire in theatres now, Mr. 'shaken, not stirred' seems to be on everyone's minds. Except, well, mine. Here's a secret: I saw my very first ever Bond film just last weekend and here's another secret: I could take or leave Bond. The gadgets, gizmos and action do nothing for me. The Bond Girl beauty on the other hand, now that's my cup of...

Winter Beauty Survival Guide: Skin Care

7 comments

Tuesday November 13, 2012 by Alexandra C.

As soon as the cold wind makes it's first appearance of the season, my skin immediately reacts with a 'We're not ready for this, not yet! It's too early!'. Within minutes, my hands do a wonderful impression of lizard skin. And while snakeskin can be totally great in a pair of skinny jeans, scaliness is not trending this year in beauty.

To combat the dry, winter air,...

Review of the Week: Lip Plumper (Nov 12-18)

Monday November 12, 2012 by ChickAdvisor Team

It's a recurring joke between my friends and I that I have an incredibly small mouth. In fact whenever I go to the dentist, the hygentist says to me, "open wider please" and I look shamefully down and say, "This is as good as it gets". Having a small mouth means that I also have thin little lips. I can only day dream of Angelina Jolie's luscious pucker. Plus, having a few lip plumpers...

Wednesday November 7, 2012 by Alexandra C.

Whenever the seasons change, I get sick. It's a major bummer. especially because during the rest of the year I'm pretty healthy. But every year without fail, whether it's going into winter or summer, I get sick. Because the weather has been getting chillier lately, of course, I caught the flu bug. During my time snuggled up in bed, I got to thinking of all of my favourite must-haves...

Today we're going to let you in on three eyeliners that you need to have in your makeup bag, only (surprise, surprise) none of them are black!

Look of the Day: Stella McCartney S/S 2013 Inspired Eyeliner

Tuesday October 30, 2012 by Alexandra C.

In her Spring/Summer 2013 runway show, Stella McCartney sent her models down the catwalk with a jade green eyeliner on their lower waterline and we couldn't stop staring! The look is fresh and modern yet still wearable. We're also loving jade as an alternative to the trendy mint that we saw last spring.

Having this pop of colour really draws the focus to the eyes and makes...

Obviously we love to play around with makeup. It's so much fun creating new looks and experimenting with colours and products. But when you're finished playing, you can have a few layers of product on your face and you're probably going to want to take it all off. A good eye makeup remover is essential to a skincare routine. You want to get rid of any dirt and oil so you keep your face...
