SB: What are you must have beauty products?
LMD: My must have beauty products are the things I have in my purse at all times. Pressed powder because I live in California and of course it gets really hot outside. Of course I love lip gloss and  lip stain. Also lotion because you want to keep your skin feeling soft and moisturized. At the end of the day that's really important.

SB: What is your signature style?

LMD: I would say my signature style is a bit of a eclectic mix because I live in Hollywood, California. It's Lady Gaga, meets Mickey Avalon and Katy Perry. I always like to challenge myself with fashion. At the end of the day I'm daring and I know I can pull something off! Other people will then hopefully be inspired to take bigger chances.

SB: What do you love about Toronto?

LMD: Oh my god! What I love about T dot? It's the people, the spirit and the energy! It's amazing! I love it. I've been welcomed with such warmth.


I loved taking to Lisa on the pink carpet. She was fun and really friendly! Look out with my interview with Camille Mc Donald coming out later this week.

MUST HAVE: Hawaiian Tropic® Sunscreen Lotions

I'm going on a vacation for my birthday! I'm excited.

One of the most important things to bring with me will be sunscreen. As a WOC I am still prone to sunburns and skin cancer. For the past three weeks, I have been trying out brands to bring with me.

I am looking for a brand that has a few things:

• Pleasant scent
• High SPF
• Light weight

The Hawaiian Tropic® does it. 

Plus they have something for everyone!

Hawaiian Tropic Shimmer Effect SPF 30
Uses mica mineral shimmer to highlight skin tone, allowing you to look your best while keeping your skin safe from the sun.

This one is the most glamorous of the bunch. Did you know that gold shimmer is the perfect way to hide skin imperfections! Try it on your stretch marks and scars.

Hawaiian Tropic® Silk Hydration™ Sunscreen Lotion
The unique hydrating ribbons replenish moisture for up to 12 hours, allowing you to pamper your skin while providing protection from the sun’s UVA and UVB rays.

If you find sunscreen dries out your skin, try this one!

 The moisturizing swirls really helped my legs from not drying out through out the day.

I should add that the hydrating ribbons are infused with silk protein and shea butter.

Hawaiian Tropic Sheer Touch SPF 85 Sunscreen Lotion
To ensure maximum protection from the sun’s intense rays, this surprisingly lightweight sunscreen provides photostable UVA and UVB protection while seducing senses with its signature tropical fragrance.

I'm bringing this one for sure because it's light weight, waterproof and grease free. 

A little bit goes a LONG way.

 I'm happy that these have that signature Hawaiian Tropic® coconut fragrance.

Prices range from $9.99 to $11.99 CDN.

Do you wear sunscreen daily?

I truly think I was born lippy! I think it's that Island blood flowing through my veins...I'm joking.

This month The Body Shop came out with the lovely Born Lippy™ Stick Lip Balm.

 I usually wear them under my lipsticks because they have a thicker consistency.

I think that is why they make my make my lip color last longer.

Less touch ups through out the day makes me a happy girl.

Gives lips a pop of color, a shot of moisture and a soft shine.

Rimmel London Makeup Artist, Vanessa Jarman’s tips for the 2012 Spring/Summer season

 Earlier this year, I got the opportunity to ask Rimmel London Makeup Artist, Vanessa Jarman’s some simple tips for the 2012 Spring/Summer season.

Check out what she has to say about red lips, perfect eyeliner & brows!

SB:How to pick the perfect red for your skin tone (Fair, Medium & Dark)?
According to Vanessa, picking a great red for your skin tone “can be a little challenging at first”. However, by following her simple rules below, it will make the search a lot easier:

For fair skinned people with a blue undertone complexion, Vanessa recommends choosing a red lipstick that is cool. “Blue-reds will work to enhance and brighten your complexion”, she said. Vanessa recommends trying, Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in, Temptation

She also suggests for those fair skinned ladies with a slightly more yellow undertone, “to try picking reds with an orange base as these tones will complement the natural warmth in your skin” she says. Vanessa recommends trying Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in, Alarm

For those medium skin toned ladies with yellow hints to their complexion, Vanessa suggests choosing a warm red lip colour, “as this will brighten your smile and whiten your teeth”, she says. Vanessa believes trying the Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Kate Moss #01 Red



For ladies who have darker skin with a slight redish/purple undertone, Vanessa recommends choosing a red lipstick with cooler blue hues to make lips really pop. She suggests using Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Bordeau.

And finally, for dark skinned ladies with a mix of warm yellow and orange hues to their complexion, Vanessa suggests choosing a lipstick to complement skin colour with a warm orange undertone. Vanessa suggests trying Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick in Red Hot.

Red lips are being worn many different ways from glossy, matte, crisp and bright like Dior, to soft yet bold like Anna Sui's SS/12 runway.

Feel free to follow the rules, or break them!! Whatever tone of red makes you feel hot, playful or sexy - wear it and have fun!

SB:How to make your eyeliner last all day?
When applying eyeliner, Vanessa suggests trying to use a couple of products. If you find your pencil smudges or wears off easily by the natural oils of your lids, “apply pencil first followed by a similar shade in eyes shadow. Simply place the eyes shadow directly over the top of the eyeliner, using a tight small brush so you can be precise with your shadow application.”.

Vanessa also recommends “placing eye shadow over top of your eyeliner when lining your inner waterline. This step is especially important to use when creating a smokey eye, and will ensure an even darkness near your iris and the whites of your eyes,” she says.

Vanessa suggests trying- Rimmel London Exaggerate Auto Waterproof Eye Definer or the Rimmel London Special Eyes Eyeliners in any shade!!

Pair with: Glam' Eyes Mono Eye Shadow: Jet Black, Dusk, or Plum Romance for a matte finish.
Explore the Glam Eyes HD Pallets: For a shimmer finish on top of your liner. This will add brightness, and dimension to your liner.


SB:The Best Products to use when filling in your brows?
According to Vanessa, “No matter what Rimmel London product you end up using to fill in your brows, make sure you apply it softly,”.

It's important to build up your eyebrow shape slowly, rather than piling on too much from the start. Vanessa recommends for a medium brown to dark chocolate brow – Rimmel London Mono Glam Eyes Pallet in Dusk and for Redheads, she recommends using Rimmel London Natural Bronzer in Sun Bronze
