F is for Fujifilm F70 EXR: Fave Shots from Montreal Fashion Week FW 2010

10 March 2010

Staff’s freaked because this post has a Friday “F is for” headline and it’s Wednesday. She knew I was waiting for a related link to go live before publishing, but still she’s all jangly about it. She amuses me.
Anyway, I had some digi-camera fun last week, thanks to a Fujifilm FinePix F70 EXR model I [...]

F is for Filmettes: On CHANEL Rouge Coco, the New Lipstick by Peter Philips

5 March 2010

Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup, has made a bold move. “I would like to seduce women back into using lipstick again,” he says in the first video below. And to do it, he’s replaced the brand’s Rouge Hydrabase lipstick with Rouge Coco ($38), a new long-lasting moisturizing formula in a range of [...]

F is for Failure to Launch: Post(poned) to Next Monday

5 March 2010

Staff felt I needed to give you a heads-up about the publishing delay in today’s “F is for…” post, mostly because it gets her goat when I do a Friday F-is-for post on a Monday. For some reason announcing the intention will make her feel better. Me, I’m going along with the idea because it [...]

F is for Fuzzy: Airplus Aloe Infused Ultra Moisturizing Socks

26 February 2010

Damn. Winter isn’t over. These days seem either to be wicked cold, wicked snowy or wicked damp-and-cold. A bright spot? Airplus Aloe Infused Ultra Moisturizing Socks ($6.99), which come in pink, blue and purple, solid, striped and polka-dotted. One recent cranky morning (the Staff is a bad influence), I spotted

F is for Foodie & Family: kitchen Bistro is a New Local Resto for Easy Dining

26 February 2010

What kind of a sister would I be if I weren’t geeking out over my foodie-sister’s kitchen (kitchenonavenue.com), a new restaurant she and business partner chef Jeffrey Baker, have just opened on Avenue Rd. south of Wilson in Toronto? I’d be a hungry sister, that’s what.

F is for Furor: Undressed Canadian Male Olympians — We Have Those? WE Do!

19 February 2010

Well damn. Miss an issue of Chatelaine and almost miss all the fun.
Oh yes, I’m firmly on the side of fun with this cheeky story in which our male Olympic athletes, including François-Olivier Roberge (left), appear undressed — unexpected from a Canadian lifestyle magazine, and yes, unexpected from Chatelaine. Our Olympians can be s-e-x-y, which [...]

F is for Fanbook: Toronto Teenager OK in Lady GaGa’s Book

12 February 2010

It’s a different kind of Valentine’s Day story today: See that wiggy blonde in shades up there? That’s Lady GaGa with fans in Chicago last month, according to fansite gagadaily.com (the girl in the red wig is the site’s administrator). See that book? That figure in the book, on the page that says “Lady GaGa [...]

F is for Frieda and 50% Off: John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder & Colour Renew

5 February 2010

I’ve mentioned John Frieda Collection’s Go Blonder and Colour Renew in stories for other media outlets, but haven’t really highlighted them in a BeautyGeeks post — my bad. They’re a brilliant way to duck your colourist a bit longer and save your beauty pennies for something else. And at the moment they and the rest [...]

F is for Friendlier: No Retinol Sting with RoC Retin-OX Wrinkle Correxion

15 January 2010

Retinol is a proven anti-aging ingredient — there’s no question that it softens the appearance of fine lines, reduces the severity of deep wrinkles, smooths the skin and boosts elasticity. But for some, retinol products came with a bit of a smack, a stinging discomfort. Not so with RoC’s new Retin-Ox Wrinkle Correxion lineup, which [...]

F is for First Resolution of 2010: 100% Natural Organic Kitchen by Upper Canada (on The Shopping Channel Today)

1 January 2010

Happy New Year! So. Resolutions. I don’t know about yours, but mine are the same resolutions I seem to make every few days: get to appointments on time, use the TTC more and taxis less, cook good-for-me foods and cut back on take-out or delivery, drink more water, get more sleep, up my fitness factor, [...]
