I’m Sick

So sad. I really tried to pretend that I wasn’t, but after a full day with the kid, my legs felt like jelly, I had to admit it–I’m down for the count. And why? Well, first, because someone who may or may not be three may or may not have their finger in their nose […]

Diety Bless the Beauty Closet

I have a beauty closet. After all, I’m a beauty editor, right? An internet beauty editor, but a beauty editor nonetheless. I have had a long career as a makeup artist and I even wrote a book about makeup lines, so, well, I know things. I choose what I think is best for you and […]

Jump Start Your Resolution?

Self magazine has a routine that they say takes 20 minutes and used 2-3 times a week, combined with cardio is the only work out you’ll ever need. Does anyone want to partner with me and we’ll see about that?

I Love Body Oil

I think it’s more sensual, more penetrating and better for you. I think if I were a chemist I might call the molecules of oil “biodynamic” in that they seem to sink into the pores better. It depends where you live, how dry it is, and it depends when you put it on–right after the […]

Tuesday’s Tip - Get Motivated, Get Support, Smell the Cupcakes.

Okay, I swiped this link from this mom, but I really love the idea of change, or I should say that I’m in the midst of a bunch of life-altering changes and I don’t have a road map, so it’s scary. So what I can benefit from is much cheer! Here are some sites I […]

This Time, With Pictures!

My computer is fixed! I don’t know why, well, I spent a really long time fixing it, so I’m stoked. So stoked, I’m going to celebrate with a green juice. Because this was the birthday weekend of my kid and it’s been a sugar fest. I did pretty well, but I fell off the wagon, […]

Have I Mentioned Sabon?

I know I spoke about the Rose Soap, but the body scrub and the body oil are to die for. Most of Sabon’s products don’t use synthetic or you-know-what kind of oils and they smell divine and work like a charm.

Lauren Hutton is Back and Better Than Ever!

Lauren Hutton had a great idea with her cosmetic line, I love working with women over 35, so I’m glad someone has addressed this target market–it’s the fastest growing segment of the population.
So Hutton did something really cool and really smart, she created a mineral powder-foundation line, which doesn’t settle into pores and gives a […]

Tuesday’s Tip - Dark Circles Under Eyes

There are several reasons for dark circles: lack of sleep, ahem; age and believe it or not, sun exposure. I once read an article that said that darkening underneath the eyes is a result of the sun darkening that area. So a few tips:
Wear sunscreen!
Get enough sleep.
When you’ve gotten up off the floor laughing at […]

Picture This

I am not able to upload photos, so while I’m figuring out how to get my computer fixed, I will have to dazzle you with my writing. Here goes:
I want to tell you about one of my biggest beauty secrets: lavender. Probably because I am so stressed out all the time, I need flowers and […]
