When I was twenty, there was one woman who's pictures hung in my bathroom. Super model Rachel Williams was, to me, the essence of beauty. Her sun-kissed glow, her ocean-bleached hair-that was the look I wanted. She looked natural, healthy, and beautiful. These Elle covers from 1990 hung on my bathroom mirror. I actually saw [...]

Beach Lover
By now, I think you all realize I love summer. I am a Leo and we cats love the sun and heat. I also love summer because I have a glow and need less makeup. Because of the importance of sunscreen, most of my glow is created by self-tanner and the right combination of products. [...]
Overnight Skin Renewal
I recently ran out of my Clinique Turnaround Night Cream and was debating what to try next. Don't get me wrong. I wasn't unhappy with the Turnaround cream, I'm just itching to try more amazing products. I have heard so many wonderful things about Skinceuticals that I decided it was my next step. Besides, it's [...]
Nail Treatments That Work (Really)
I'm not an authority on nails. Mine have never been great so I mainly neglect them. They are dry, brittle, weirdly shaped...and I'm a biter. I know, at my age it's just really sad. I've decided recently to keep them painted as a way of deterring the biting. And so far, so good. My mom [...]
The Big Tease
I love hair that has oomph and I always have. Teasing is just an every day part of my routine. There's something sexy about hair that has height. Maybe it's because my head is super small that I feel I need the added inches up top. Or maybe it's just that it looks so good. [...]

Dry Way to Keratin Infusion
One of the first posts I did was about Suave Professionals Dry Shampoo. In this post I wrote about how awesome their $3 version is compared to much more expensive brands. Well, Suave has done it again. They have launched a phenomenal Keratin Infusion line and I am in love with the dry shampoo. So, [...]

Cleansing The Age Away
I've been singing the dry skin and hair blues for awhile now. I think I have nipped the hair problem in the bud, and now I have found the solution for my skin. Boots No.7 is the UK's number one cosmetic and skincare line, and for good reason. It's affordable and works amazingly well. I [...]
Thin Mints or Luna Bars?
It's Girl Scout Cookie time, and while that would usually have me singing at the top of my lungs, this year not so much. I have put on a bit of pudding and need to lose about ten pounds. Now, I am not saying not to buy these scrumptious cookies, quite the opposite. I believe [...]
