5 Ways Concealer Will Change Your Makeup Game
After a late night or when faced with an unexpected acne breakout, concealer is one of the first things we reach for in our makeup bag.And like most cosmetics, concealer has many uses beyond what it says on the label. Here are five different ways to make your life a little easier with a just a few dabs.1. Make your lipstick last longer. No lip liner? No problem.

Here's Your First Look At The New Queen Elsa From 'Once Upon A Time'
Bow down, there's a new queen in town.Since news broke that a "Frozen"/"Once Upon A Time" crossover was definitely happening, we've been wondering who would play our favorite ice queen. Georgina Haig was cast as Elsa of Arendelle shortly after the show found the actors who would take on the roles of Princess Anna and Kristoff, and we have to admit, we were a bit worried. Sure, she had the right color hair and the big blue eyes -- plus she'd proven her acting ability starring alongside Joshua Jackson on "Fringe" -- but could she really step into those Disney-sized shoes? The jury's still out on that one, but at least she looks the part.A few photos snapped at the Vancouver set where "OUAT" is currently filming it's fourth season reveal what real-life Elsa will look like on the show, and it's...

Who Cares About the Price of Almond Milk?
As someone that works within the retail food sector, I am truly quite puzzled by the recent "news" pieces getting circulated regarding the price of almond milk. If you haven't heard, the gist is that some people seem to be outraged that almond milk is cheaper to make yourself, because almond milk is basically a small amount of almonds blended with filtered water.What I find astounding, is that people 1) didn't already know this and 2) are shocked that it's cheaper to make food at home. I don't quite understand why almond milk is being targeted. Any food bought from the store is going to be cheaper to make at home.An article on Mother Jones, claiming almond milk is a scam, points out that according to their calculations, there are about .39 cents of almonds in a $3.99 container of almond milk....

13 Facts You May Not Know About Stanley Kubrick's 'Eyes Wide Shut'
Fifteen years ago, on July 16, 1999, Stanley Kubrick's final film, "Eyes Wide Shut," opened nationwide. Setting records for the longest shoot in movie history, it was an excruciating labor of love for lead stars Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman -- one that would often be traced back to the alleged start of their marriage's decline. Throughout the process, cryptic reports implied that Kubrick's obsessive perfectionism had reached peak levels, which was especially eyebrow-raising given the film's sexual explicitness. The director, who won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects for "2001: A Space Odyssey," died of a heart attack in March 1999, days after screening the final cut. Had he lived, perhaps we'd have more perspective on the movie's production -- or perhaps not, as Kubrick was notoriously reclusive.An...

From the Jerusalem Festival: Can Films Transcend Politics?
Watching movies for ten days at the 31st Jerusalem Film Festival might seem like an escape from the current reality of rockets fired from Gaza into Israel as well as the subsequent military retaliation of the Israeli government. But many of the Festival selections confront ethnic tension and inspire a deeper reflection than headlines can ignite.At the Closing Night ceremony Thursday, Festival Founder and President Lia Van Leer thanked "those who came in our days of sorrow to help us make a great festival." This indomitable woman, 93 years young, set a tone for the rest of the evening that was both sober and hopeful. It included the awarding of the Festival's Achievement Award to actor Makram Khoury, a Palestinian who has incarnated both Jewish Holocaust survivors and Arabs onscreen.Although...

Seated amidst an audience of mini people, I wondered what I was doing at this screening. When I put on my 3D glasses and sat back to munch my popcorn, I was pleasantly surprised by the stellar cast of voices and the terrific soundtrack. But alas, the plot is a cookie-cutter repeat of The Little Engine That Could. Still, it was enjoyable, as the special effects are fun and I found myself truly feeling that these cars, fire trucks, ambulances were people of sorts and had hearts. And heart...
