If you were to track my lipstick evolution, you would see it started at frosted pink in my early teens, had a brief stopover with red (L’Oreal’s “British Red Coat”) during an angsty goth phase, and by my early 20s, I was fully committed to 90s brick red brown like everyone else. (Side note: before […]

Not to stress you out, but we’re less than two weeks out from Christmas and the panic should be starting to set in. If you want a window into what you should be buying for the beauty enthusiast on your list—and also come across like you’re really in the know— all you need to be […]

The post The Beauty Products That Are Flying Off The Shelves in December appeared first on FASHION Magazine.

In a time when we strive for a clutter-free life (capsule wardrobes and organized desks à la Marie Kondo come to mind), it’s understandable that beauty products with minimalist packaging are the latest must-haves setting our Pinterest boards on fire. What’s not to love? Aside from making the best props for our beauty shelves and […]

The post 20 Beauty Products that Prove Minimalist Packaging Is All You Need for a Dream Top Shelf appeared first on FASHION Magazine.

One of my most vivid childhood memories is of the indelible scent of M.A.C lipsticks. If you grew up in the ’90s, you definitely know what I’m talking about. Yes, I would regularly sneak over to my mom’s vanity to steal a whiff of the subtle vanilla fragrance, and yes, I’ve ruined many an intact […]

Go inside Linda Rodin’s bag »

It is an indisputable fact that Linda Rodin is the coolest 65-year-old woman in Manhattan; see her campaigns for The Row, J.Crew and the photo shoot in our May issue for further proof. We can only hope to be as awesome as the former model, stylist and now beauty entrepreneur—her facial oil Rodin Olio Lusso may be simple in concept, but highly stylish in execution. The silver haired, perennially fuchsia-lipped Rodin flew to Toronto last month for an event at Prologue Lifestyle, where her line is sold, and where she was monopolized by our staff in a welcoming, fan girl embrace. The next day, our nosy selves met at her hotel, where she showed off her newly purchased Zara flats and graciously allowed us to poke around her Marni purse.

I feel like it’s difficult to find a fragrance that is truly atypical and stands out from what I already own and what others around me wear. Any suggestions?
As we all know, fragrance is extremely personal and subjective. It’s fairly common knowledge that the way fragrance smells on skin varies from person to person, dependent on the acidity of the skin. That being said, who wouldn’t want something that’s less identifiable upon first smell and perhaps a bit more intriguing to passersby? If you’re looking for something that’s a different olfactory experience, check out Lush’s range of Gorilla Perfumes. The collection of nine fragrances is very much the antidote to other perfumes you own in a uniquely refreshing way. First, each scent was inspired by English art, music, people and memories. The range include notes that allude to specific, intriguing smells such as whisky, espresso, clary sage and French cigarettes, but are still blended with traditional notes such as frangipani, tonka bean, and jasmine. The end result is a collection that is a welcomed departure from the norm. My pick for spring is Lush Sun (starting at $15, lush.ca), which is an eau de parfum that contains Brazilian orange oil, sandalwood and mimosa—sure to give you pep in your step as we wait for the weather to turn!
