Want To Improve The Look Of Your Curly Hair? Lose The Shampoo!

by Rebekah June 13, 2012 Beauty

I don’t shampoo my hair. Now that you’ve all scooted your chairs back from your computer to escape any dirty-hair smell that might have rubbed off on this post, let me explain that a bit. I clean my hair pretty much daily using conditioner but I stopped using shampoo a couple of years ago and I’ve [...]

Spend vs. Steal: Primer

by jodifur May 23, 2012 Beauty

I love primer. I helps make-up stay on and I have already written that I have a problem with that. It keeps oily skin matte, evens out skin tone, and can even cover up imperfections. I have tried a ton of primers and I’m partial to [...]

Summer and sunscreen: what’s your plan?

by Robin (noteverstill) May 1, 2012 Beauty

My second daughter enjoying Bethany Beach in last summer’s sun. With the strange spring we’ve been having, we’ve already had quite a few hot days, and today is supposed to be another one. Our conversations about sunscreen have become more commonplace, as have my concerns. Let’s start with this: none of my kids has ever [...]

The New Makeup Product I Love

by jodifur April 18, 2012 Beauty

I have combination skin. And in the summer my combination skin turns oily. Makeup just slides off of me, and it looks like I’m barely wearing any makeup at all. I would reapply and wear primer and even then, makeup never stayed on. It was on a recent family vacation with my family that [...]

My Hands Make Me Look Old

by Aimee March 30, 2012 Beauty

I’ve heard that your hands are the one part of the body that truly reveal your age. A person might use all kinds of fancy creams, injections or even surgery to turn back time on their face or neck. They might have the most fantastic dye job ever on their hair, and use every other [...]

by Victoria Mason March 21, 2012 Beauty

We are overrun with cosmetic and skincare products. From the drugstore to the department store, the Internet and all those speciality stores in between it can be confusing to find what works for you. After all, who do you believe? Do you believe the magazines, your friend with totally different skin from you or [...]

Philosophy The Present clear make up.

by Stephanie December 14, 2011 Beauty

I love Philosophy products. They are cruelty free, philanthropic and (selfishly) they are good products. By and large they do what they say. That’s why The Present was a bit of a disappointment. It is basically a glorified primer which is promoted as a clear make up skin treatment. Don’t let it fool you, it’s not [...]

Clinique Chubby Stick Lip review

by Stephanie November 23, 2011 Beauty

First off let’s just deal with this product’s unfortunate name. Chubby Stick. Perhaps I am just a twelve year old boy but I giggle every time. My very favorite color is Fuller Fig. So I myself, like a fuller Chubby stick. But I digress. As a product junkie I am always on the lookout for [...]

Dear Vicky, I am dealing with adult acne. Do you have any product recommendations? Because I am breaking out like a teenager! Fear not! This is something that is happening more and more and I can’t help but wonder if it has to do with our busy, overscheduled lives and the fact that we often [...]

Self Tanning Confessions

by Victoria Mason October 26, 2011 Beauty

I like to call myself the “whitest white girl”. I’m not actually porcelain skinned but I am fair, pink-toned and prone to freckling. I don’t tan. I burn, freckle and get skin cancer. It’s probably why I am so obsessed with being tan. That saying, “You can never be too rich or too thin” also had [...]
