Lids for Lou Gehrig’s Disease

In honor of ALS Awareness Month, Le Métier de Beauté is kicking off May with “Lids for Lou Gehrig’s Disease.” The campaign’s efforts will go towards raising money, awareness and finding a cure for ALS (Lou Gehrig’s). ​ Past-edition Kaleidoscope Eye Kits – straight from the archives – will be making one last debut exclusively on www.LeMetierDeBeaute.com. There will be ONE individual Eye Kaleidoscope Kit up per day that is the last of its kind (6 in total). Throughout the week, kaleidoscopes will be paired with additional gifts from outstanding brands, designers and companies we’ve partnered with for the cause. Including: • Oscar de la Renta • GlossyBox • David Hart & Co. • The Plaza Hotel • Steiner Sports/NY Yankees Kicking off Sunday night, May 5th through Sunday, May 10th, the Eye Kaleidoscopes and accompanying gifts (all being kept secret until their scheduled debut) will be placed on www.lemetierdebeaute.com. Until 9PM EST, bids can be placed. The highest bidder will be announced at the end of the day and will receive the coveted, last-of-its-kind Kaleidoscope Eye Kit plus the featured collaboration gift. 100% of the proceeds earned from “Lid’s for Lou Gehrig’s Disease” kaleidoscope campaign will go directly to the ALS Association. In addition to all of these profits earned, Le Métier de Beauté will be donating 10% to the ALS Association for EVERY sale made on our E-commerce site May 5th through May 12th. Lastly, for anyone who chooses to separately donate $100 or more on the tribute fund page that has been set up at ALSA.org, Le Métier de Beauté will send a thank you package of beauty goodies.

What is ALS? The Facts: • Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that attacks nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord resulting in muscle weakness and atrophy. • Upon diagnosis, the life expectancy of an ALS patient ranges from 2 to 5 years. • Only 10% will survive more than 10 years • For the vast majority, their mind and thoughts are not impaired and remain sharp despite the progressive degenerating condition of the body. • ALS can strike anyone. There is currently no cure. What We Can Do. “Lids for Lou Gehrig’s” Mission: Give a voice. The goal behind Le Métier de Beauté ‘s “Lids for Lou Gehrig’s” campaign is to open more eyes to this devastating disease. Knowledge is power and can bring us one step closer to finding a cure. Your participation, voice and donations can directly impact thousands of people and their family members whose lives have been affected by ALS.

Make Up For Ever Debuts Make Up Bag Remix Tour Hits Toronto’s Yorkdale Mall

MAKE UP FOR EVER DEBUTS MAKE UP BAG REMIX TOUR HITS TORONTO’S YORKDALE MALL APRIL 13TH AND 14TH

Leading Professional Make Up Brand Takes Make Up School on the Road to Teach Consumers How to Use the Products They Already Own and Refresh their Look

Make Up Bag Remix MAKE UP FOR EVER

WHAT: Nearly every woman owns at least one impulse beauty buy that she has no idea how to use, or is too intimidated to try on her own at home. MAKE UP FOR EVER’s team of professional artists will take a look inside consumers’ make up bags and teach them how to properly use what they already own, regardless of the brand, as well as overhaul products that are the wrong shade or texture or may be past their prime. MAKE UP FOR EVER is bringing the same techniques used by wardrobe stylists in the closet to style your make up bag at their innovative mobile Make Up School. The idea is to make your make up bag work harder for you.

HOW: Consumers are invited to book appointments for 30 minute one-on-one make up bag evaluations inside the Make Up School, where a professional artist will go through their bag, provide an interactive, hands-on lesson explaining how to apply their products, and show them how to supplement what they already own to create their most flattering look. Each client will walk away with a new make up bag, a custom face chart detailing how to use the products they brought, and a list of any additional products recommended by the artist to round out their look. A professional photographer will also be on-site to capture each client’s “after” look, which will be uploaded to an album on the MAKE UP FOR EVER USA and Canada Facebook pages. For those on-the-go with limited time, MAKE UP FOR EVER will have make up stations dedicated to quick lip and complexion touch ups featuring Pro Finish, the brand’s innovative new multi-use compact foundation in stores this month!

Invitation to Experience a Toyko Inspired Makeup Demonstration by shu uemura’s International Artistic Director

It was with great excitement that I announced, back in November, that shu uemura would be available at the Toronto Eaton Centre location of Sephora. I am delighted to now share with you this invitation to an exciting event at that location on March 8th. shu uemura’s International Artistic director, Kakuyasu Uchiide creating an amazing Tokyo inspired look on a model as a demonstration for all in attendance. The event starts at 11:30am. Uchiide was Mr. Shu Uemura’s right hand – he was handpicked by the Japanese makeup pioneer to carry on his legacy.  I am hoping to make it to the event myself. March 8th happens to be my birthday and I think spending it in Toronto would be quite pleasing. ;-)
