Lipstick Powder N Paint

As someone who has always been interested in beauty products, Heather Reier really felt the beauty world was missing a line of crèmes and scrubs infused with nourishing ingredients accompanied by stylish packaging and a sassy, fun concept. So much so that in 2003 she whipped it all together – in her kitchen - and Cake Beauty was born.

This female entrepreneur made sure that each and every product was infused with fine ingredients for an unforgettably high quality experience. Barbie by Cake comes out this month, in honour of Barbie’s 50th birthday. It’s part of a global campaign where Barbie is teaming up with beauty brands to create a collection to be sold at Sephora.

There is no question that co-workers are a big part of our lives. Heck, we see more of them than we see of our best friends and our family. Don’t over look them this holiday season! A little something from our gift guide will keep the peace around the water cooler. (more…)

Toronto is complete chaos at the moment and I love it! Big time movie stars are flying in on private jets to party the weekend away and fans are lining the streets to sneak a peek.

For those of you that are the ‘peekers’, here are some items that will keep you comfy and feeling good:

1. Bottled Water - the body needs to be hydrated, especially in this heat. Winners on Bloor is handing out the cutest mini bottles with RUNWAY printed on them.

2. Sunscreen - standing in one spot for a long period of time is asking for the rays to damage your delicate skin. Slather up before leaving the house and then reapply frequently. KINeSYS Sunscreen Spray - SPF 30 is perfect as it is light, sprays on and is non greasy.

3. Moisturizer - Cake Satin Sugar All Purpose Treatment Balm is so perfect. This versatile darling is infused with 86% shea butter and12% beeswax. The ultra moisturizing formula is supremely nourishing; treating heels, cuticles, chapped lips, pesky dry patches, frizzies, and fly aways.

I have been told that Satin Sugar All Purpose Treatment Balm will be included in the exclusive Redemption dinner gift bags given to top movie execs, crew and the cast including Reese, Jake and even the beloved Meryl. They are so lucky!

4. Bandages - I have the larges blisters on the soles of my feet from running around yesterday. I would recommend Band-Aid Advanced Healing Blister. These cushion them so well.

5. Sunglasses - Large cool sunglasses. When your eyes absorb light, the process creates heat or chemical reactions in eye tissue. These reactions can cause permanent damage if the eye’s natural ability to heal itself is overwhelmed. I quite like these Minotauro 164S by Roberto Cavalli.

6. Shoes - Comfortable shoes. These could be a wedge but to me flat is the way to go. How cute are these Matiko shoes?

Ok if you see a famous person I want you to email me straight away!

Oh I wish that I had known about this little package-o-goodies last week! I flew from Toronto to Vancouver on Sunday - but my luggage arrived on…Monday. Great!
