Empire’s Backyard Party with Monster Energy in Montreal Canada

By Appearances, Competitions, Event Coverage, Model Stuff, Travel

We had so much fun this weekend attending Empire Backyard Party in Montreal, fueled by Monster Energy and presented by Vans. The Empire Backyard Party is the biggest Pro/Am Mini Ramp comp in Canada. More about Empire: “EMPIRE has become Canada’s leading retailer specializing in skateboard / snowboard related products, clothing, footwear and accessories,”. After the competition we headed over to Ballroom at 3643 Saint-Laurent for the Official Empire BYP party. This weekend is jam packed with awesome.

Here are a few of my personal shots from the weekend. We attended the comp nestled in the heart of downtown Montreal where snowboarders demonstrated their skills on mini ramps and rails. Competitors traveled across the country to vie for a spot on the BYP podium, which includes a lot of respect… and cash. First place took home $10,000.00. Not bad!

Check us out!

Everything took place downtown Montreal in the heart of the city. The weather was already chilly ; there was definitely no need to worry about the snow melting. How awesome was it to get a taste of Winter early? When we first arrived to the competition things were well underway; I thought it was super gnarly to have a behind-the-scenes scope of the shred sessions. Music was pumpin’ and fans showed their appreciation by high-fiving the boards surrounding this beautiful man made Mini Ramp set-up. Check out a couple photos from the Empire Facebook Page. What an ill experience!  Here is a shot of the set up [ via Empire BYP Facebook Page ].

And here is what the final set-up looked like…

Here’s HOW TO GET THE LOOK:

Always start with a fresh face! We began by washing my face and hair in preparation for makeup application.
Stefania applied a primer with clean hands to begin the look. The primer is called Pro Professional from Benefit.
Concealer is applied. Concealer is Makeup Forever.
Next is eyebrows. Eyebrows frame your face. Brow is Chanel.
Primer goes on the eyelid, and then we start with the shadows.

After the eyes, Stefania uses Foundation and finishes with a powder to set the makeup.
She uses light pink lips and noted that it is considered a very sexy look to have a dark, smoky eye and nude lips.
After my hair dried Stefania used a straightening iron to make soft waves throughout my hair.

Everyone loved our looks. Fabulous!

Get Glowing Summer Skin Now!

Summer is here! One of the greatest feelings is being fresh faced and enjoying outdoor activities in the sunshine!
Here are my best tips for Glowing Summer Skin:

1. ALWAYS wear spf 60 on your face, hands, neck and chest. This prevents aging and wrinkles where it matters most.

2. After every application of sunscreen or oil, –  exfoliate after cleansing. Lotions and sticky sunscreens wreck havoc on your pores. Always scrub breakout prone areas with an exfoliating scrub. Vichy or Proactiv has gentle facewashes which can be used multiple times daily.

3. Flaxseed – Ground Flaxseed added to cereal or a shake in the morning will make your skin glow.

4. Drink Water! Drink extra water in the summer time. Aim for 3-4 litres a day at least!

5. Resist the urge to touch your skin. Ever. Keep your fingers away from face, chest, back, always!

6. Use C&E peptides

7. Take extra care of yourself! If you sweat, hit the shower ASAP!

8. Watch what you eat. Diet is important. Cut sweets, meat, and dairy to ensure your skin is perfect.
See More info Here.

9. Relax your face! Practice relaxing your face more often. This will minimize frown lines. I have done this for years.

10. Remove makeup every single night before bed! Washing your face before bed should be a bedtime ritual!

Remember: Sometimes skin does what it wants! No one ever has “perfect skin” 🙂 These tips are meant to help you better manage the beautiful skin you’re in!
