Jennifer Lawrence at The Great Gatsby Premiere

Last week, Jennifer Lawrence made a bold move and showed that less is really more by going bare-faced to the premiere of The Great Gatsby in New York. 

The minimal to no-makeup look is a change for Lawrence, who usually opts for smokey eyes and pink lips when hitting the red carpet. But at only 22 years old, why shouldn't Lawrence show off her youthful and flawless complexion? 

I spoke to makeup artist Allana Mizra on how to get the look and let your natural beauty shine:

Just like you have a different wardrobe of clothing for fall/winter and spring/summer, you should have separate wardrobes for each season when it comes to your skincare products. 

And with the weather finally getting warmer (is it just me, or did that seem like one of the longest winters ever?), it's time to transition into your spring skincare routine. 

"Our skin condition is different from winter to summer," explains Amy Chen, Scientific Communication and Training Leader of SkinCeuticals. "In the winter our skin tends to be drier, and in the summer our face tends to produce more sebum [that oily substance that helps prevent our hair and skin from drying out]. Therefore, it is important to use proper skincare to adapt to different skin conditions." 

Not too sure how to build your spring skincare wardrobe? Here are some staples:

Rowenta Beauty Versa Style

We women tend to always want what we don't have -- especially when it comes to hair. While I long for big, voluminous curls, my curly-haired friends envy my pin-straight locks. 

And though we can't exactly change our hair permanently, we can manipulate it with styling tools. The only problem? It can get costly to invest in, especially when we require different tools for different hairstyles. 

That's where Rowenta Beauty's Versa Style comes in handy. This all-in-one styling tool allows you to create several different hair looks; from sleek and straight, to big bouncy curls and everything in between. 

The Roseark necklace I've been coveting.

Ever notice that aimlessly shopping can turn into a spree, but as soon as you need something specific, it's nowhere to be found? Well, I've been after an upside-down crescent moon necklace for months now, ever since I spotted the shape on Miley Cyrus. Despite searching the Internet high and low, the only one I could find was Miley's exact buy, and - needless to say - it's out of my price range. So I've been after a low budget version of Miley's ivory and diamond tusk and finally last night I found it, thanks to The Hunt.

Last Thursday, we headed backstage at Andrew Richard Designs to check out Comrags' Fall 2013 collection at The shOws. 

Though beauty on the runway can often be a little bit too crazy for everday, we were pleasantly surprised to see that the Comrags beauty look was something that could be worn in real-life and easily recreated at home. 

"At a lot of shows, the makeup doesn't look too wearable," said Greg Wencel, celebrity makeup artist and CoverGirl makeup pro who created the look. "When we met with [Comrags designers] Judish Corish and Joyce Gunhouse, they wanted to make sure that it was something that made a statement, but something that someone wouldn't be afraid to actually try."

Wencel's inspiration? A youthful, look reminiscent of a Parisian girl or models backstage sipping wine.  

"The Comrags girl has something healthy and organic about her. It's a polished look, that's super pretty and very wearable," he explained.

Wencel gave us a rundown on how to recreate the look at home, using CoverGirl cosmetics: 

Many of you are either on Spring Break or on the cusp of vacation, and at this time of year we Canadians love to escape in pursuit of warmth. Here are the top 5 things you shouldn't fly south without:

#1 SARONG
Rather than lugging a heavy towel down to the beach, I'm a big fan of the sarong as an alternative. Sure, it's not going to provide that fresh-out-of-the-water cuddle factor, but you're in the tropics—the water drops will dry before you even make land. Plus a sarong is lightweight for carrying down the boardwalk and easy to tie around your beach bag. Even better? Wrap it around your shoulders and neck if the sun goes down while you're still out in your suit.

I love trying out new beauty products and brands, so when I heard that BECCA Cosmetics (a line loved by Gwyneth Paltrow, Beyonce and Kate Moss, to name a few) was launching in Canada exclusively at Sephora, I was super excited to check it out.

It's been a week after Jennifer Lawrence's Oscar win, and I'm still obsessing over her stunning red carpet look. 

And while it may be difficult to snag her haute couture gown, J.Law's winning nail look won't put a dent in your wallet.

By now, you must have seen the viral video of 13-year-old Tori Locklear’s hair tutorial gone wrong. 

Not going to lie, I burst out laughing the first time I saw it  - her face is priceless! But then I thought about what I would have done if my hair burnt off while using a curling wand - screamed, cried, thrown the ultimate hissy fit.

Amidst fashion week and Valentine's Day falls another important event - Chinese New Year!

February 10th marks the first of 15 days of celebration (think homemade dumplings, dragon dancing, and red envelopes) to ring in the Lunar New Year. 

And whether you're Chinese or not, you can easily get into the spirit with Chinese-inspired fashion picks.
