In Montreal, hockey isn’t just a sport—it’s a way of life. The players are true celebrities, seen at the city’s hottest spots, always looking sharp. But have you ever noticed the women by their side? They are effortlessly stylish, radiating elegance, grace, and confidence. I have a strong feeling they’re the ones helping these guys refine their fashion sense because, let’s be honest, their style is impeccable.
As a makeup artist, I have a deep appreciation for natural-looking beauty, even in full glam. Makeup should enhance, not mask—bringing out the best in your features while keeping you looking like yourself. And these women? Their makeup is the perfect example of that balance.
I gathered a few images to highlight what I love about their beauty looks. These women are an inspiration—not only for how they elevate their makeup but also for the way they carry themselves with such effortless sophistication.
Emma Fortin: Soft Glam with a Touch of Boldness
Emma Fortin embodies understated elegance. Her makeup is clean, polished, and subtly sultry—proof that “natural” can still be captivating. She plays with a soft bronze glow, adding dimension to her face while keeping things fresh. Her lashes? Long, voluminous, and fluttery—achieved with multiple layers of mascara or a deep, intense black formula. The glossy nude lips complete the look, adding just the right amount of shine.
What truly stands out is the hint of pink that seamlessly blends with the golden bronze tones—a detail that makes this look feel both warm and romantic. And her brows? Bold yet natural, shaped to perfection without the overdone laminated effect, making everything look effortlessly put together.

Paola Anderson: A Monochromatic Pink Moment
Paola Anderson has that kind of beauty that stops you in your tracks—her green eyes, luminous complexion, and effortless glow make her look ethereal. She plays with pink tones beautifully, creating a monochromatic look that is feminine yet striking.
Her golden-pink shimmer on the eyelids gives just the right touch of glam, catching the light in a way that feels celebratory but never overpowering. Her blush brings a fresh, youthful flush to her complexion, and the pink lips—glossy, bold, but balanced—tie everything together perfectly. What makes this look even more refined is the choice to keep her mascara and eyeliner minimal, letting the pink hues take center stage.

Emilia Armia: The Ultimate Clean Girl Aesthetic
Emilia Armia is the definition of effortless beauty. She has that Scandinavian cool-girl look—fresh, radiant skin, minimal makeup, and a natural confidence that shines through. I have a soft spot for her because she’s Finnish, and after living in Finland for a year, the country holds a special place in my heart. Rakastan Suomea!
Her look is all about simplicity. She embraces her natural features, letting her freckles show through, wearing just a touch of mascara, brow gel, and lip gloss. Sometimes, that’s all you need. It’s a reminder that beauty isn’t always about spending hours on makeup—sometimes, the most inspiring looks are the ones that take five minutes.
