I’m always looking for a great facial cleanser, and this one does the trick in twenty different ways. It fights blemishes better than its Neutrogena or Clean and Clear counterparts, and the tingling icy feeling on your face is amazing. (As I’ve said before, I love products that feel like they’re doing something.) I [...]
I’m a hair abuser. I use light blonde color, flat iron, blow dry, highlight, and generally mortify my hair. So for me, a product like Redken Anti-Snap is a dream. Just wash and condition as normal, and then apply some of this to the length and especially ends of your hair. (I use about two [...]
This is one of those products I’m always recommending, so I figured I should officially review it. Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Leave-In Serum is a great all-in-one product for a good price: it reduces frizz, adds shine, and gives hair a generally polished look. One of the reasons I love it is that [...]
Any time you can find a great drugstore foundation, it’s a good thing. Likewise, one that matches your skin well is even better.

The biggest thing about Bare Minerals is using it properly. Get yourself a big kabuki brush - it doesn’t have to be the Bare Escentuals brand one - and follow the [...]
Trends have definitely followed super-straight hair. Celebs like Reese Witherspoon and Rachel Bilson are seen sporting the style all the time, so I thought it’d be helpful to share some tips on getting it at home with no salon blowout and no split ends.
Step 1: Get a Chi. It is absolutely your best friend. I [...]
Most of you ladies probably have colored hair, and likely have also had your once brilliant color fade or look different from when you left the salon. I’ve got bad news for you - there’s no way around that. It’s just going to happen. The good news is, companies like Matrix make great products like [...]
