With the sad and untimely deaths of Brad Renfro and Heath Ledger, it has really hit home to me the need to take better care of myself. I obviously didn’t know them personally but I just find it really sad and a waste of the precious gift that life is. I think it’s too easy […]

I have been hearing so much buzz that last couple of weeks about this store, I finally decided to check out their website. They just opened their flagship store in Manhattan last year but they have been all over the United Kingdom since 1993. Just based on their online offerings I can’t wait until more brick and […]

There’s kind of a stigma that comes with saying that you try to live in an earth friendly manner. To a certain segment of the population, all that means is that you don’t eat meat or wash your hair, wear lots of tie-dye and eat tofu.

“If it weren’t for bad luck, we’d have no luck at all.” This pretty much sums up my life. If something can go wrong, it will and it will happen to my husband and I. Today is a perfect example. This has been a long week of illnesses and job stress and it’s only Tuesday. […]

“Like angels crying on your tongue”. That is how my friend describes the cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery in NYC. Biting into one of these confectionery creations is an experience in and of itself. Everyone should experience it at least once in your life and once you do you will be forever changed. I feel the same […]

Oh - the joys of getting outside. Unfortunately, my skin is not happy for it. I have been freckling, and these little brown spots and patches are creeping up on slowly, but surely.
I put out a call for products that can help these patches, and my first response was from Ole Henriksen and two of […]

I just love these natural self-tanning towelettes from Yves Rocher - the leader in botanical beauty.
Using towelettes are so easy, especially when you want to get your arms looking evenly tanned, right on down to the hands. My hands are the part of my body I tend to have the most trouble with, self-tanning. […]

When strolling through New Yorks Chelsea neighborhood, you may not expect to see such a modern apothecary, especially that of (Malin + Goetz). While their products remain all natural, the approach, and decor is sleek and stylish - very modern.
I had a chance to try two hair care products from the (Malin + Goetz) hair […]
