My balayage

Have you heard of balayage? Before this video I hadn’t. But when Glow needed someone to get the highlights for a video, I raised my hand like a kid in class who knew the answer. After a quick google of the term, pictures of Jessica Alba and Rachel Bilson appeared. Yes, please. I’d love to look like either. The video is featured on Glow.ca’s homepage.

Ombré

Ombré is full on in beauty and fashion right now. Fashion seems obvious, with the bleached outjeans and gradual-hued sun dresses we saw last summer. I love how now we’re seeing it with more personality, more courage, and more style.

As for beauty, it makes so much sense to play with colour from the tips of your hair to your lips. While generally I wouldn’t recommend doing a trend all over, but this one is too much fun to resist. Which is why I’m wearing this Boohoo.com denim shirt with my L’Oréal Féria hair.

Here’s my Glow magazine colleague Tania Kwong demonstrating how to to do the ombré lip. Enjoy!
