Inner Peace is Beautiful

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 […]

Are You Eco-Fabulous?

 
Origins Organics has a contest going where they want people to tell them how “green” they are. You can enter by submitting a photo, video or blog. Um…really? I’m sorry I just can’t get down with that. So the point of the contest is to nominate yourself for being totally awesome? I’m so wickedly Eco-conscious […]

Snakes on a Plane

It may just be my personality, but I hate it when something becomes so trendy that everyone has it. If I happen to discover something that I love, I get annoyed when the word spreads. Hmm…maybe I shouldn’t be telling you about this then. Okay, I will tell you but then I will have to […]

Vodka Tonic

The Purell craze is hard to resist but regular old hand washing with warm soapy water is better for you and more effective. I used to work with a woman who was originally from Siberia that would religiously wash her hands with […]

Burt’s Bees:Friend or Foe

 
Today on TreeHugger there is an excerpt from a New York Times article about Burt’s Bees and it’s founder. Apparently Burt’s Bees was sold to Clorox in November but was actually sold originally years ago. Very interesting article, you should check it out. Personally I have been off of the Burt’s Bees bandwagon for a while. […]

Sara Snow Gets Even Fresher

In this month’s issue of Lucky Magazine, Sara Snow is featured in the Shop with the pros section. I love Lucky Magazine and have had a subscription (thanks to my lovely SIL) for years. The only thing that I don’t like about the magazine is the “work attire” they often feature. It’s like work attire […]

Dos and Dont’s

My personal guide when it comes to shopping for makeup and skincare products.
Dos

Always read the ingredient list. You can’t go based solely on what the product says it has in it. Be sure that you know what you are buying.
Natural beauty is better than anything you can get out of a tube. Buy makeup that […]

New Year’s Resolutions

After an uneventful New Year’s Eve, my thoughts turn today to the year ahead. I’m not a resolution type of person but I do like to take stock each year and make a plan of action that I think I might be able to stick to. There’s power in numbers so I am encouraging anyone […]
