So what’s on your wish list this year?

Meet Vanja, a biochemistry student with a passion for makeup.

I’ve always admired her talent and creativity. Her makeup always looks professional and flawless, and I’ve yet to learn her secret.

Hope you enjoy this exclusive smokey eye tutorial!

I asked Vanja what her fave makeup was:

Mascara
Covergirl Eyelights for green eyes. It’s actually really good, doesn’t flake, defines and lengthens, and its cheap – for everyday. Benefit Badgal is perfect as a more going-out type of mascara.

Lipgloss
Sexy Mother Pucker in clear by Soap & Glory -  it’s plumping and stays on all day!  I really like the Bourjois lipglosses as well.

Foundation
In the winter I use Vichy Normaderm liquid foundation, and Purminerals 4 in 1 in the summer.  It’s awesome, has SPF, great coverage, and feels really light on.

Blush
By faaaaar Smashbox! I love their bronzers/blushes.

Lipstick
Mac are definitely the best, like the one I used in the video… and they have awesome colours.

Eyeshadow
One of my favourites ever are the Lise Watier loose powder eyeshadows – you can use them as a loose powder or mix them with their Metamorphix and use it as a liquid eyeliner; it really intensifies the colour, too.

Thank you Vanja!

During the past four years uFashion has been organizing fashion shows and model competitions in support of the breast cancer foundation. Their shows always turn out to be a huge success, with models rocking the following fashions:

auditions, day one: Golnaz, Diana, Ahmed

Many hopefuls showed up at this week’s auditions, however, only 10 girls and 10 guys will be selected for the final show. If you missed the auditions, you can still email ufashion@utoronto.ca with the following: one head shot, one full body shot and your measurements. They’re looking for people who are fun, comfortable on stage and project a healthy body image.

Good luck!

Also, if you’re free next Friday, come join me and uFashion at their Sex and the City party at Riva lounge on College.  Dress to impress, I will be taking photos for shopsterium :)
