Shiseido Facial Cotton and The Bay create works of art!

Been wondering if there could be another use for the 20 packs of Shiseido Facial Cotton pads that you have lying around the house? Why not create a Snow Queen inspired design out of them like the clever Visual Merchandising teams at The Bay stores across Canada have been doing!?!

I'm pretty damned impressed at the intricate work that these teams are doing and my fave has got to be this one above by the team at Oakridge Centre - if I were a Snow Queen I would totally want to wear it!

You can check them all out and vote for your fave at www.facebook.com/ShiseidoCanada.and if you stop by your local participating The Bay store you can see their creation for yourself on display until January 15th.

Of course other then just making great outfits - you know how much I already love Shiseido Facial Cotton - 165 sheets - $9 - the first time I bought them I thought it was a crazy amount to pay for cotton pads but after using them I could never let another cheapo cotton pad touch my face again!

I never realized how much work actually goes into making them:

They're 100% cotton - made from textile quality hand picked cotton with only the medium and long fibres - 123,600 in each sheet to be exact - to create a stronger and high quality pad (which is why they don't fall apart while using). Then an exclusive water jet process elongates the cotton to create a facial pad with 15-20 sheets of cotton layered together and this is what helps to dispense the product you use on them back onto the skin without absorbing into the cotton sheet - cotton carries and releases moisture easily making it perfect for the job.

Available at The Bay, Sears, select Shoppers Drug Mart locations, Murale, London Drugs, Ogilvy, Sephora and Jean Coutu.

From Cannes to London: a Week of Intoxicating Fashion with Lady Gaga!

This week Lady Gaga looked like a matador on acid in Cannes and launched yet another trend a couple of days later while traveling through London: My Little Pony accessories!

It's so, so cruel. Who could hurt such a magnificent creature in the name of "fashion"? I wonder how many Little Ponies had to die for this horrible necklace (and let's not tell Lisamarie because that would just make her weep).

Broken toys around your neck? Yeah, I believe the day Gaga will run out of ideas is approaching...

Katie Price Wears an iPod Crown Paired with a Tin Foil Jumpsuit. Because She Can!

Amazing! Katie Price (aka Jordan) is AMAZING! She has outdone herself...and what I really mean is she manages to look ridiculous, awful, crazy and slutty all at once! This ought to be some kind of world record. Lisamarie always makes fun of how I'm distracted by shiny objects - I've got a 3 seconds attention span - but do you blame me for being distracted by this? I'd like to point out: she's not just wearing a tin foil outfit, she's also wearing a crown made out of iPods! At least she spared us from her camel toe by wearing a skirt on top of that jumpsuit.  It's still mesmerizing, though. I love you Jordan  but perhaps that botox has gone to your brain head!

Drew Barrymore needs to fire her hair stylist AND her makeup artist. This is the type of makeup I put on my face was I was 6 years old. I know soft curls and bed hair are in right now ,  but this is just bad frizzy morning-after-alcohol-fuelled-Ibiza-party type of hair. 

Phoebe Price is...you know, Phoebe Price! She manages to wear about 20 colors, patterns and textures all at once and that's a talent. I don't think I've got that much variety in my entire wardrobe. Next to Katie Price, she still looks understated, and it's scary. Phoebe: you even fail at being bad!
