BROWS -

Go see the “Brow Goddess” Maryam Collahi for an instant face lift. Look years younger and put an end to years of that “just walked into a surprise party” style or the “LA Girl Gang Banger Brows” It is time to finally get a shape that compliments your face, from the woman that can seriously do no wrong. J-Lo look alike, Maryam, has shaped many celeb brows…and will have you feeling like one!

To make an appt with Maryam, call 604-338-9434

NOIR LASH LOUNGE -

Ever tried to glue on false lashes before a big night? So have I, which is why I now head to Noir Lash Lounge. If you’re like me and don’t want short lashes but are short on patience, this is the place for you.
Get ready to lay back and close your eyes in a comfy chaise in the ultra modern lounge where pros will place individual lashes on top of your own natural lash. There are tons of styles to choose from: everything from ‘Addict for the Dramatic’ to the “A-list”. Whichever style you choose, you can expect INSTANT glam-ification with semi permanent lashes that will last you from 3-6 weeks, for just $60. $30 for refills.
For an Appt call – 604-915-LASH (5274)/ 1150 Hamilton Street /

BLO –
Bad hair days be gone! Conveniently located right next door to Noir Lash Lounge in the heart of Yaletown…make back-to-back apts.
Let cutie, Chris Funk and the Blo angels transform your ’same ol’ story locks’ into one of eight distinctive styles from the menu – anything from the “Holly Would” to “Red Carpet” ready. For only $30 and 30 mins of your precious time.
Did I mention $30 and 30 mins!?
To book an appointment: 604.909.9495 /Blo’s flagship Blow Dry Bar is located smack dab in the heart of Yaletown at 1150 Hamilton. Between Davie and Helmcken….But there are many locations to choose from.

MAC -
Oldie but a goodie. I started experimenting with MAC years ago and no matter what trends come and go, MAC will always have the best colours for all skin types.
Book an appointment for $50 and revitalize your entire visage. With expert artists like, Caitlin Callahan, expect to do a double-take when you are done…who knew you could look this good? And even better… the $50 for the appointment goes towards whatever products you choose.

LEAH ALEXANDRA – http://www.leahalexandra.com/
If searching from store to store for a new outfit is not topping your list of want to-do’s — Don’t!
Instead of venturing out for a new dress, re-visit your closet and vow to pick out an up-until-now ignored fall LBD.
To make it look new, pair it with a beautiful jewellery piece from local designer, Leah Alexandra. Screen sirens like Jessica Alba and Kerry Washington are fans. I look to Leah when I wanna put that cherry on top of any outfit.
Visit her Blue Ruby Stores around the lower mainland.
