THROWBACK THURSDAY-PK SUBBAN

By Throw Back Thursday 492 Comments

Do you remember that super hot day in August this year?  Well I do and I felt like I won the jackpot that day because I was shooting a commercial in an indoor skating rink.  I was even sporting a toque while the mercury rose past 40 degrees outside! The commercial was for the Scotiabank Hockey Club and it featured their ambassador, NHLer and Montreal Canadian‘s Assistant Captain PK Subban. There was a drone on set to capture a bird’s eye view of PK playing hockey with a bunch of lucky kids.  Here are some behind the scene shots I took…

On the 11th day of Christmas J9 gave to me…Dove Style + Care Mousse Whenever I want to wear my hair curly I will wash my hair and apply Dove Style + Care Mousse while it is still wet.  I will then directionally blow dry my hair for root lift and then I use a curling wand (like the one seen belown) to create loose soft curls.  With the Dove mousse I can keep those waves for a good 3-5 days and my hair looks great.Here is what I love about it: Gently nourishes to help eliminate frizz Along with…

On the 9th day of Christmas J9 gave to me…Crest 3D White Vivid Toothpaste I can’t say enough good things about this toothpaste.  I feel like after one use you can see a visible whitening of your teeth.  It’s not abrasive and leaves my teeth squeaky clean and my breath fresh for a while.  I’ve tried all the flavors available and you can’t go wrong with any of them. Here is what I love about this toothpaste: Has a dual-action silica system that polishes away surface stains to gently whiten teeth Claims to remove up to 80% of surface stains in…

On the 8th day of Christmas J9 gave to me…Essence Easy 2 Use Eyeliner Pen I stumbled upon this eyeliner pen while working on a music video for the Toronto pop dance group PRTY H3RO.  The other makeup artist lent it to me and I used the eyeliner to create a nice cat eye on Natasha the female lead in the group.  Check out the video here: I’ve been hooked on the liner ever since.  A staple in any girl’s makeup bag that loves a sleek liner look. Here is what I love about it: A true black that doesn’t…

On the 7th day of Christmas J9 gave to me…Covergirl Full Lash Bloom Mascara!!! One question that I love to ask my clients is what is their favorite mascara?  I’m always on the hunt for the perfect mascara.   I feel like I have tried hundreds of different brands and formulas.  But something always has me going back to the Covergirl family of mascaras.  I find them the best on the market!  My Covergirl mascara of choice for the last little while has been the Full Lash Bloom Mascara. Here is what I love most about it: Formula is flexible…

On the 6th day of Christmas J9 gave to me…Clean & Clear Makeup Dissolving Foaming Cleanser!!! I love this cleanser/makeup remover.  When I want to eliminate that extra step of removing my makeup then washing my face I will use this great cleanser.  It foams up nicely and will take all my makeup off.  I feel like it doesn’t strip my skin of moisture either but leaves my skin feeling squeaky clean. Here is what I love about it: This oil-free formula gently and effectively dissolves makeup (even waterproof mascara) It deep cleans your skin in one easy step It…

On the 5th day of Christmas J9 gave to me…Maybelline Master Primer Blur & Smooth!!! I always recommend to use a primer prior to applying foundation.  It makes a huge difference in how your foundation will wear and look.  There are some high end primers that a lot of makeup artist swear by like the one from Smashbox or the primer from Makeup Forever. These are great but you will pay a pretty penny for them.  So for those of you looking for a great primer that is within a reasonable price point Maybelline Master Primer Blur & Smooth is…

On the 4th day of Christmas J9 gave to me…Nivea Express Eye Makeup Remover!!! I use a lot of products on myself and clients that are beyond waterproof.  I feel like I’ve tried many different makeup removers but none of them work as good and quickly as Nivea’s Express Eye makeup remover.  I even have my 80 year old Grannie hooked on this stuff! Here is what I love about it: Instantly dissolves makeup including resistant waterproof make-up It has Blue Cornflower extract which hydrates the sensitive eye area and protects eyelashes Doesn’t leave an oily residue after you use…
