MTV also featured our pictures on their "Hollywood Crush" section. They even had this to say about the cover - "This girls intense, seductive smoky eyes will lure you to May’s issue of Avenue Canada. With strategically tousled hair, a stern pout and a pose that screams “I’m ready for anything,” actress Sara Canning is letting everyone know she has arrived."

Holy grail of Mascara Combinations

Recently, I purchased L'oreal's Telescopic Explosion mascara.

I'm a big fan of mixing mascaras to create the desired effect I want, since most of the time using just 1 mascara isn't enough. I used L'Oreal's Telescopic Explosion mascara as the base coat. Since the brush is actually a little ball, you're really able to get every lash. And no clumping! Insane!

For the 2nd coat, I used Lancome's Definicils mascara.

This is probably one of my favorite mascaras. The color is JET BLACK. The brush is great and really thickens your lashes up.

With these two mascaras paired together, my lashes looked AMAZING. Each lash was coated, no clumps, jet black and looked fake.

Sorry in advance for being so awkward :)


If any of you try this mascara combination, let me know! I'd love to hear if it worked for you as well as it worked for me :)

Sara Canning + Ian Somerhalder

Had a really great time in Atlanta this week. We shot Sara Canning & Ian Somerhalder from The Vampire Diaries for a few magazines, and I'm really excited to see them in print! Both Sara and Ian were just so sweet and funny, and amazing to work with. Sara got to wear these TO DIE FOR Roberto Cavalli pants...Looked similar to gold lamé fabric, but thicker and woven. They were AMAZING. Kind of circus-y ringleader looking. I need them. I can't wait to show you guys when it comes out!

And thanks to my assistant Ashley for being the best ;)

UNII Cosmetics Palette

Lately, I've been thinking about consolidating my make up kit so I have everything I want but less to carry around... But, let me tell you, it's HARD. I haven't had any luck finding cute empty magnetic palettes to purchase. I COULD try my hand at making my own palettes out of old DVD cases, but D.I.Y crafts ain't my cup of tea (Who's not good with a glue gun? THIS GIRL).

But then this morning I found these!



The UNII Palette retails for $29 (free shipping too!), and comes in Pomegranate, Twilight, Lemongrass, Eggplant and Snow. Featuring a Magnetized Palette (so makeup stays put), Adhesive magnetic sheet with writable labels (so you can label each product), and has a large full sized mirror. Because it's magnetized, you can switch out makeup in the palette whenever you want, and can even create day to nighttime palettes within a few seconds. The palette is about the size of 2 MAC quads (which only hold 8 eyeshadows, where as the UNII palette holds 14).


Simply Depot your makeup and pop it into the palette! (To learn how to depot, watch THIS video)

Personally, I love them. They're cute, they store a lot of stuff, and would work great consolidating my kit. I can't wait to order some (in eggplant!) BUY HERE!
