If you’re like me, you LOVE giving gifts during the holidays. Some think it’s a hassle, but I absolutely can’t wait to get out my tissue paper and stuff lots of bags with goodies for family and friends. Especially, when it’s this good! If you’re really wanting to go all out on say – your […]
So D. and I have been busy preparing for baby and sampling out beauty products, ha! The latest on our holiday list? Redken! I thought it only fair if I’m dousing my hair in the best in salon products each day, he should have something to sample, too. So, he’s been using the new Grooming […]
So, a couple of days ago I told you there were more of my fav holiday scents to come. Since baby C.’s impending arrival is so soon, we’ve hauled out all the Christmas decorations already and even plan to get our Christmas tree next weekend (we do the tree farm thing every year!). So, while […]
As you know, I’m a big fan of organic products if at all possible. I mean, why not? I’m not, however, a fan of those that scream organic with those awful scents and weird “change your life” claims. Rich and creamy with a nice, refreshing feel to it (and sold at Neimans and Barney’s, hello!)? […]
Around the holidays, I always start filling the room with fragrance – it’s a habit. From cinnamon sticks to peppermint to pomegranate (post on that one to come!), and now strawberries. I absolutely love candles, but I love diffusers just as much. They’re so easy to use and seem to last forever! The newest one […]
While “skinny” is a word I sort of loathe right now (the end of these nine months can’t come soon enough!), The Skinny, the new high-end skincare “sample sale” site (up to 75% off, yikes!) is way cool. It launches tomorrow, and it’s beauty on the cheap! Become a member by clicking above. To give […]
The ponytail has become my ol’ standby lately (hey, I’m eight months pregnant – give me a break!), but I’ve actually figured out even a ponytail can look icky without a proper blowdry. I wash my hair every other day not because I want to, but because I’m lazy. But there is no doubt in […]
My name means “youthful one” and I’ve always been oh-so-proud of that. It’s always seemed to hold true (hey, I still get carded and walk around the house singing Tina Turner songs, don’t tell me I’m not youthful!). It’s hard to feel youthful when you’re pregnant though, no? I mean, my name will soon be […]
My love for Fresh is rooted deep – le sigh. I first discovered the line while working at Seventeen, and then when I became Beauty Editor at another local magazine (and in charge of all the loot!) my love continued on. It also helped that I couldn’t buy the products anywhere in town – boy, […]
The holiday season (which isn’t far away!) always get me in the mood to try out new scents. I’m always a huge fan of anything pumpkin, cinnamon or spice. But when it comes to my perfumes, I lean towards floral and feminine, light and airy. And I’m not much of a fan of vanilla unless […]
