With Fashion Week in NYC and TIFF in Toronto, the FAB team has had a busy week and has had to make some hard choices on where to be.
But when the invite arrived to experience the ultimate in pampering at the 5th Annual beautyBOUTIQUE by Shoppers Drug Mart and Sally Hershberger in the TIFF Suite this past weekend; the choice for M. Fab was simple!
All the latest in hair, make-up, beauty and fashion under one roof. Exclusively for getting Canadian editors, TV/radio personalities, and ME red-carpet ready – I am still coming down from my beauty product buzz. For a girl who adores make-up as much as I do, this event was extra incredible.
The event space on Queen West was transformed beautifully into a full-service salon… Except with delicious catering!
First I was whisked into the St. Tropez tan area with the incredible Sophie Evans, New York’s Skin Finishing Expert who has tanned A-listers like the Beckhams, Zooey Deschanel, and ‘Royalty’. Striped bare down to my new disposable G-string, I tried to ask intelligent questions while being misted all over my pale, nude body.
A top tip from Sophie for those nasty tan lines from the summer – apply the St. Tropez ‘Bronzing Lotion’ to the pale areas using a Q-Tip and shower off, once set. Start with one application as you can always layer up. In a few hours say ‘sayonara’ to those pesky lines.
Next my hair was transformed using the latest Sally Hershberger collection products under the wizardry of Sally’s own New York salon stylists. Looking for red carpet volume that won’t take a professional blow-out to create? Try the new Sally Hershberger ‘Caffeine for Major Volume’ 3-in-1 Volumizing Spray that is also a dry shampoo and finishing hairspray. Three of my favourite hair products in one! Amazing.
My make-up was done by the lovely Lyndsay Craig from Stila Cosmetics. Her colour choice for Fall eyes are glamorous heavy-metal hues. Bold and smouldery eyes can be highlighted with their ‘Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner’ in ‘Midnight’. A gorgeous, off-navy colour that makes any eye-colour pop.
Feeling totally spoiled, I then spotted some stunning rock glam jewelry by Canadian company Cocoa Jewelry.
Edgy and dramatic, this collection is what statement pieces are all about.
What make-over is complete without a manicure? Ceramic Glaze was showcasing their new Venetian Masquerade and Holiday Bling Collections.
Gorgeous, bold colours with a dash of shimmer.
Duo Professional Eyelash Adhesive was there with incredible lashes, and Luster White with their at-home teeth whitening system. I was able to take a system home and can’t wait to try it out for you guys.
So much fun. So much glamour. And the best part? All of these products can be found, across Canada in Shoppers Drug Mart.
