You’ve probably heard of smudge-free make-up. You’ve also probably heard of long-lasting make-up. But have you heard of make-up that literally absorbs oil, refracts shine, disperses pigments, absorbs excess water, and get this, lowers make-up surface temperatures by 15-20 desgrees for 10-12 hours?? Probably not. And that is why I am here to fill you in on this totally [...]

Fat girl what?!?

Okay so we all know that the cosmetic industry has come out with some pretty wacky things. There are scrubs, lotions and potions for all sorts of beauty remedies – no matter how strange and unrealistic they are. I for one have never been a firm believer in any anti-cellulite products (this includes anything under [...]
Your beauty products deserve cute bags, too.

This post is for all of you out there whose makeup and beauty products are scattered throughout your bags, counters, desks, bathrooms, etc. I’m not quite sure why, but it really bothers me when people just throw their makeup into their purses along with the assortment of random things floating around. This is how makeup products [...]
Cakey foundation out, tinted moisturizer in
Posted in Facial Skin Care, Foundation, Make-Up on April 9, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Foundation can be heavy; it can feel like too much. And while moisturizer is an essential skin care element, combined with foundation it can simply be too many laters. We all know, and despise, that “cakey” look.
So whoever came up with the idea of a tinted moisturizer is a sheer genius.

What new look can I not seem to get enough of? The braided head band.
I’m secretly obsessed – and plan on trying one on myself as soon as I have the time (and the occasion to wear it).

And what better way to celebrate Spring then by a “bright” change [...]
Beautiful blow-out basics

Think about your perfect hair day. When I reminisce my mind takes me to days where I’m leaving the hair salon, right after getting my hair done. Sure the cut and color make a difference – lighter, darker, shorter, etc. But I’ve found that the real secret is the blow-out.
So how do you get the [...]
Create your own at-home spa pedicure!
Posted in Nails, Pedicure on April 1, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Who wants to pay around fifty bucks every two weeks for a luxurious pedicure? While a trip to your favorite spa or nail salon is a splurge you must take every once in a while – it’s not something that I (or many college students) can afford as often as I’d like.
However, the lack of [...]
