I Feel Pretty. Oh So…Yeah Whatever

I don’t really wear make up that often. Why? Well, in part for the same reason I don’t wear dresses. I would feel like a drag queen. Seriously, I feel like people are looking at me like, “Look at that little boy wearing makeup”. Illogical? Yes. Some issues from my adolecense that I need to work through? […]

Giveaway Time: BeeCeuticals Gift Pack

 
I recently had the opportunity to try out the BeeCeuticals Organics skincare line. I had never heard of it until one of my lovely readers recommended it. I have to tell you that I am hooked. Their Bee-yond Lip Balm is truly emollient and not waxy. Most chapstick like products have this weird taste and they don’t last […]

Bare Naked Beauty

 
As I’ve said before, I get territorial about my new finds. I will selectively withhold information from people who I deem unworthy. No use throwing my pearls to the swine. In this case I have decided that my find was just too fantastic to keep to myself. In all of my benevolence I have decided […]

Homemade Skin Cleansers from Whole Foods

Whole Foods Market (referred to in our home as whole paycheck) has some great skin cleanser recipes on their website. Most of it is stuff you probably have sitting around and would not have to make a special trip to go buy. I can’t resist homemade remedies. They are just too easy and you can do so […]

Juicy Lips

When I was home for Christmas I picked up Juice Beauty’s SPF 15 Tinted Lip Moisturizers at my favorite Sephora on Third Street Promenade. It’s a three piece set which ensures that there will be one in there that’s the perfect shade for you. I obviously consider myself a lip balm aficionado. I wonder if there’s […]

Back from the Dead

 
Imagine that you have not eaten real food for days and the sight of a glass of water makes you nauseous. You would be where I have been this week. After clutching the toilet for dear life and wishing I could just rip out my intestines and put them in a drawer for a little […]

Not your Average Cup of Joe

I came across this recipe for a homemade coffee scrub and I just had to share. I used to never drink coffee but now I can’t make it through the day without at least one cup. This is a good way to recycle the grounds. It is a little messy but well worth the effort […]

Planes, Trains and Automobiles

 
I consider myself an expert on packing for travel. I have it down to a science at this point. That is why it is so shocking that I made it all the way home for Christmas and forgot my soap. I blame it on mommy brain. The hubby’s stuff; all there. All the endless baby crap, check. […]

Tis the Season for Merriment and Buffoonery

While I would never characterize myself as a girly girl, per say, I do enjoy getting prettified occasionally. The Holiday season gives me the perfect opportunity to be unabashedly feminine. Office parties just call for fancier attire and more makeup than I would usually wear. Somewhere between Vegas Showgirl and my typical bare-faced look. What […]
