We all know winter can dry out and damage our hair, but what about summer? I've come to realize that the heat and elements of the summer can be just as, if not more so, damaging to my locks. Think about it. You have pool, lake, and ocean water, wind, humidity-and that's just to name [...]

Benefit’s Latest Offering
I'm a big fan of Benefit Cosmetics. My love affair started more than two decades ago with their cult favorite, Benetint, and De-Groovie, and continues today. Their box 'o powder, Coralista, is one of my all-time favorite blushes. That's why I am super excited for their latest offering. Later this month, Benefit will launch a [...]
Glamorous, Yet Easy, Up-Do
The FiFi Awards were held earlier this week to honor the top fragrances of the year. But one thing stole the show and it wasn't a perfume, it was Nicole Richie's super glamorous up-do. I love the height and volume of this up-do. While it may look complicated and intricate, it's actually quite easy to [...]
Bunny Bronzers In A Compact
The first bronzer I remember using was my mom's Indian Earth. It came in a terra-cotta pot and was a fine powder that could be used as a bronzer, eye shadow, ect. My mom loved this stuff. I found it difficult to apply, maybe because as a teen in the 80's we were a little [...]
Airbrushing Made Easy
I'm always on the hunt for a good pressed powder, especially one that doesn't settle into those fine lines around my eyes. I've tried a lot of the expensive brands and have liked many, but have been less happy about the price tag. I mean, this girl doesn't have a job! I read about a [...]
Bright Nails For Spring

But while shopping for some new polish, I couldn't help but notice bright is THE way to go for spring. Yellows, greens, magenta and bright [...]
Summer Dreaming
The grass is green, the trees have leaves, and flowers are blooming. I am dreaming of summer and it is just around the corner. I cannot wait for beach time, going to the Farmer's Market, and spending time on the water. I want sand between my toes and the sun on my face. Here are [...]
Nails On Pointe
I've shared my love of ballet with you all before. I think it's one of the most beautiful art forms and I always dreamed of being a ballerina (don't most girls?). One of the things I love the most are all the muted colors. The beige, pink, and white of ballet slippers, tutus, and leotards [...]
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. [...]
Fashion Week Beauty
While Fashion Week might be all about the clothing and designs, quite a few beauty trends are debuted as well. Today I'm going to share with you some of my favorite new trends in beauty, right off the runway. At the Rachel Roy show, black nails and dirty looking makeup was where it was at. [...]
