Cooler Than Mom Jeans, but Just as Comfortable
I am kind of a freak about hair products. Mostly because I'm fully convinced that the right combination of products will give me the hair I've always dreamed of -- shiny, strong, and nonfrizzy. Every new product is potentially magic in a bottle, and I definitely don't want to miss out on THE ONE. The combination of … [Read more...]
It's that time of year again... Time where our tootsies are on display. I live in flip flops over the summer and here in NJ, sandal time is limited, so I try and make the most of it! I will preface this with letting you in on a little secret... I am not a high-heel girl. I only wear them when I have to, which is pretty much … [Read more...]
A few years ago, I went for my first facial. I expected a relaxing, delightful experience full of cucumber slices and soothing music. It was not like that. Basically, I spent the hour laying there and having my face pressed on and squeezed while I was reprimanded for my lack of a skin care … [Read more...]
I fall victim to anything that's the "latest". My husband calls me a "Marketers Dream". I guess he's a little right. I mean, what if the new whatever comes out and it's way better than the OLD whatever and I don't know about it? That's a scary thought. Especially when it comes to make-up. It's really for the greater good that I stay … [Read more...]
So a few weeks ago I decided I was going to paint my nails. Pretty normal, right? Well, I went to the store and bought this stuff ... It's by Nutra Nail and it says it will give you the same results as a Shellac manicure from the salon. Of course I bought it and followed the directions and waited for magic to happen. Unfortunately … [Read more...]
Dermalogica is a brand that is fairly new to me. A couple of months ago, I received a sample of their Microexfoliant in my Birchbox and LOVED it. It's a powder that you blend with water to form a paste, and rub on your face and rinse off. It doesn't feel like it's doing anything, but your face feels so so smooth afterwords, and it's made with … [Read more...]
Pin It This stuff is so cool! It's really exactly as self-explanatory as the title. I bought this nail polish by Layla called Magneffect. It has tiny, itty bitty specks of magnets in the polish... Also with the Magneffect I have used Essie No Chips Ahead...it's the best top coat and really helps prevent chipping. On top of the nail … [Read more...]
I'm not gonna sugarcoat this. I have a problem. It begins and ends at Sephora. I have too much make up. Too too much. Here's the thing..not only do I love make up, I am relentlessly fickle. As soon as I find something I love I am immediately on the search for something I love more. The thing about being fickle, … [Read more...]
Let's talk about make-up brushes. I firmly believe that a good make-up brush makes a ton of difference in how your face looks. A good brush blends better, picks up more eyeshadow without scattering it all over, and makes your powder or foundation look nice and flawless. However--good brushes can get kind of expensive, … [Read more...]
Pinterest might be the death of me. All day long I sit and browse. At food. At purses. At crafts. At nails. I can blame pinterest for about 90% of my most recent purchases, ranging from colored pants to glittery nail polish. It needs to end. But first I want to share with you something that I recently … [Read more...]
Okay, so listen. This thing I am about to show you...barely qualifies as crafty, it's so easy. But--I have found that the most awesome DIY projects are the ones that up your cute factor with very little effort, so here we are. I've been seeing cute ponytail holder ideas floating around on Pinterest, but they all involve … [Read more...]
Surprisingly, I get a fair amount of emails asking what face make-up I use. And honestly, it's hard to give a good answer because it changes often. I have used Bare Minerals powder and Nars blush for years, but what really helps my complexion and the look of my skin is...highlighter. I always always ALWAYS use some type of highlighter. And … [Read more...]
