Back to School Looks: CanCam September 2009

There are only around 2-3 weeks left of summer before school starts again! EEP! I have gathered a few of my favourite outfits from CanCam to share with you guys :) These outfits are causal and are great for school, but they are also chic!

For school, try to avoid heavy makeup on the eyes and cheek area. Keep it simple with a thin layer of foundation, concealer, eyeliner, mascara, and a light sweep of blush for that healthy glow. Use a nude- colored lipgloss such as a beigey-pink or a light peach color.

Switch these heels into cute flats for a wearable school look!


Love this outfit! A floral fitted dress with an empire waist belt with a brown leather jacket, very feminine

CanCam September 2009 Hair + Makeup

Sorry ladies! I have been MIA in my postings on magazines! I have an exam on wednesday and I have been studying like mad! Anyway, here is the September edition of CanCam. Enjoy :)

CanCam Makeup Looks + Skinfood Aloe BB Cream Review

Most girls you see on Japanese magazines sport a very natural look, with attention to the eyes. They always line their eyes, put on mascara, and most of the time they wear falsies as well. Their skin always looks FLAWLESS by using liquid foundation/BB Cream and concealer to hide their imperfections. Their cheeks are lightly sweeped with blush and lips are baby pink.










Personally, I like to use Skinfood's Multi-care BB cream in Aloe Sun.

What I love about this BB cream is that it gives me medium to full coverage and it still looks completely natural! Also, it has SPF 20 PA+ which is always a bonus. It gives my face a nice bright, dewy finish and controls oil on my face throughout the day (I have oily-combination skin).

What I don't like about this BB cream is that it only comes in very limited shades (like most other BB creams). I tend to tan EVERY easily in the summer, so my current BB cream no longer matches my skintone and I have to switch to a liquid foundation.

Overall, I give this product a 9/10 (the only 1 off is because of the limited shade selection). I bought mine on Ebay for around $15 CAN (with free shipping too :D)
