It’s pretty apparent the economy really stinks right now, so my strategy is this. In order to make room for nicer things, I like to buy some things inexpensive. And of course you can never have enough make-up or nail color! I like to call it “drugstore chic.” Even though it’s nice to splurge (completely […]
I’ve always loved the rock-star vibe of Rock & Republic. It’s denim for your bold and vibrant side. So have you tried the new cosmetics collection (it just launched this fall)? It gives you that same luxurious feeling, and the packaging is to die for (once I’ve used it, is it wrong to keep the […]
Honestly, this is the coolest thing I’ve seen in awhile (besides those Switch Flops where you can switch out the straps on your flip-flops)! The ColorOn EyeEnvy Tinsel Kit ($25) (limited-edition) from Sephora was designed by a celebrity make-up artist. So what is it exactly? Well, it’s pretty much stencil eyeshadow for your eyes! It […]
For the longest time, I never even used a make-up brush. I must admit I was completely clueless about my beauty routine, and even used those brushes that come with the product in junior high (gasp!). Well, now that I’m much wiser and a self-professed beauty junkie, I must pass along my advice to you. […]
Want thicker, sexier lashes? (I know, I sound like a commercial!) You have got to try Benefit’s BADgal lash mascara. To me, mascaras are one of the trickiest pieces of make-up out there. You have to make the decision, do you want thick & sultry, long & wispy, curled to perfection, or even au-natural. Should […]

This modern version is remade with recycled caps and over 96% recycled content for the bottle (the shampoo formula is […]

Congrats to the winners of this weekend’s Bare Escentuals giveaway – Mary and Mary Beth! Way to go girls! Love Shoes?
I’ve often wondered why I had to be the lucky one in my family to inherit the acne gene (not to mention the oily hair gene). I’m 27 years old and STILL get pimples, and always at the worst times, of course. Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, parties. Granted they’re not the mega-horrendous flare-ups I used to […]
Summer may be over, but don’t you want to keep that youthful radiance? I know I do! Since I’ve been using Bare Escentuals mineral make-up I’ve looooved the way my make-up looks, and I’ve noticed my skin is much better as well (no fragrances or additives!). I’ve also realized my make-up shows up much better […]
