From time to time I feel compelled to write about something other than beauty products. But this is a beauty blog you say. I hear you imaginary heckler but feel me out for a minute. I think green, eco-friendly or whatever buzz word you want to use pertains to more than a few areas of […]
One lucky reader has one the book giveaway for Not Just A Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry. The winner is…Judith G! Congratulations Judith, I think you will really like the book. It’s not light Summer beach reading but it is informative. When you’re done with it please pass it along to […]
I have a slightly addictive personality. Okay more than slightly. If I like something then I REALLY like it and I will obsess over it until I’m just so over it I don’t want to hear about it anymore. Healthy? No, but it is what it is. My current addiction is seaweed. Seaweed salad with some […]
I hope everyone is enjoying the Holiday and getting some well deserved rest and relaxation. If you’re having a barbecue or going to one today why don’t you use real dishes instead of paper or plastic. You can dump them all in a bucket in the yard and wash them when you’re done. You’ll save […]
My husband is the ultimate gift giver. He puts lots of thought into it and it’s always something I wasn’t expecting or had even forgotten about but REALLY wanted. It’s rarely anything lavish, just really thoughtful. I on the other hand am a horrible gifter. I have every intention of planning ahead but then the […]

There are no petroleum-based ingredients, sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene glycol, parabens, or other […]
Someone I met at the Green Festival this weekend gave me a great home recipe for a hair mask using cantaloupe. That sparked my interest since I just picked up four the other day. What can I say, I’m cheap and they were on sale. So now I need to actually find a way to […]

This past weekend I trekked, and boy was it a trek, to Chicago’s Navy Pier for this year’s Green Festival. It’s presented by Co-Op America and Global Exchangeand featured an array of environmental and healthy living exhibits. Everything from Organic Valley to Dr. Bronner’s and everything you could imagine in between. They also had […]
So did anyone else have a heart attack on Friday? Why? Um only because like the greatest band of all time, NKOTB, is back together and they were on the Today show. My morning routine was cut short due to my screams while jumping up and down and singing along to Hangin Tough. If you weren’t then […]
