A Zoe Foster Classic: Do you put mascara on your bottom lashes?
Fri, 3 February 2012 1:00PM
I never used to. Used to think it was unflattering and always smudged and from a distance looked liked I’d been punched in the eye during a saloon-style bar room brawl. Thought it was unnecessary, thought it subtracted from all the good work the rest of my makeup was doing, thought it was trashy. But… more

How to: hide a hangover with makeup
Wed, 4 January 2012 2:40PM
Is it the same as when you are not hungover? Yes? Great! And by great I mean WRONG. Provided you are over the age of about 21, you just can not use the same skin care and makeup the morning after drinking 14 million red wines. It will not work. You need special assistance. Special… more

Facial Capillary Avoidance Tactic #524
Tue, 13 December 2011 9:50AM
You know how you stand in the shower and you face that lovely hot water stream, letting it wash over your face, cleansing your pores, rinsing off your cleanser and making you feel like you’re a model in a Rheem advertisement? DON’T. It’s really, really bad for the skin on your face. Your skin doesn’t like really… more

Makeup artisty tricks: Definitely worth paying heed to.
Thu, 1 December 2011 10:00AM
It sounds like you’ll be undoing all of the hard work your under-eye illuminator has done to get lovely crease-free, crepe-free coverage under your eye, but applying some translucent powder over your illuminator (or concealer) is going to make sure those dark circles remain covered all day. I learned this trick from a talented makeup artist… more

Mousse: The forgotten child of the hair styling family
Mon, 28 November 2011 1:00PM
The key is to find a modern day mousse, and to use it as the foundation of your styling artillery. Key words to look for include flexible, lightweight and volume. Try Garnier, Goldwell, Pantene… there are many, many, many mousse (collective term, like fish or sheep) for you to choose from out there. How to apply… more

Try Something New Tuesday: Bronzer makes red lipstick very sexy and summery
Tue, 1 November 2011 4:35PM
It’s a very easy look to achieve, this one. You just have to get your head out of the ‘if I wear bronzer then I must wear a nude/pink lip’ head space. As you can see, a luscious big glossy red lip is actually rather fetching with a lovely bronzed face (and body.) Just keep… more

Gross white lip gunk, we have plans for you
Tue, 25 October 2011 1:17PM
You know what i’m referring to. It’s that revolting white build up that occurs on the outer corners of the lips. It can attack at any time, whether you are wearing a lip product or not, male of female, astronaut or landscape gardener. It’s a universal problem. My school teacher used to have a chronic case…. more

How to find your perfect nude gloss
Mon, 24 October 2011 4:26PM
A given: It’s hard to find that Perfect Nude lip gloss. You know the one, it’s a nudey beigey pinky latte shade that accentuates your lip’s natural colour without overshadowing it, or stealing any of the focus from that incredible smoky eye makeup you did. It’s not clear, and it’s not opaque, it’s just sheer… more
