Spring is upon us and I don’t know about you, but my mug could do with a little infusion of seasonal glow. Enter Pur Rocks, a new goodie from mineral makeup giant Pur Minerals that adds natural-looking dimension with blush-colored crystals.
I grazed the Pur Minerals Powder Brush over Pur Rocks’ crystals and applied to the [...]

I’ve discussed keeping your breath fresh and your hair fabulous for a romantic night out with your man, but there’s one other date-night essential we should cover: smooth legs!
In my quest for Heidi Klum-like gams, I tried Gillette’s Venus Embrace. While I don’t tend to be particularly enamoured by one razor or another, this one [...]

As much as I consider myself a beauty aficionado, the one arena in which I still have constant trouble is my nails. Though I’ve made serious strides, I’m still pretty awful with my nails (especially painting them—it always looks like a four-year old painted my nails). I’ve always envied ladies whose naturally long, strong nails [...]

I adore my CHI flat iron, and my co-blogger Amber’s been raving to me about Farouk’s hit goodie CHI Silk Infusion since I can remember. In fact, this product’s been such a sensation, I’m rather embarrassed to just now be jumping on the bandwagon.
Silk Infusion is the perfect name for this leave-in. I only use [...]

Ladies, I have found the impossible: a product for my eyebrows that I completely adore. Not one that I like. Not one that simply works well. No, this is a product I am wholly, deeply in love with.
Anastasia Beverly Hills is the reigning queen of eyebrow grooming (what an odd title!) but they’ve surpassed even [...]

With all of the blonding, curling, straightening and blowdrying I put my hair through, some days I’m surprised it hasn’t fallen out yet. One major reason that my hair graces me with the privelege of not yet being bald is my use of products like Ouidad’s Botanical Boost, a lightweight leave-in that spritzes in easily [...]

I’ve finally jumped on the mineral makeup bandwagon: my favorite base of the moment is RAWMinerals Foundation and their maximum coverage foundation brush.
I got the foundation in Medium 1, and surprisingly, it matched my skin really well. I’m usually in the pale ivory whitest-of-the-white category, but not this time ( I can thank all my [...]

They say your hair is the first thing people notice about you, and nobody has great hair without great styling tools. I picked up the FHI Heat Nano Weight Pro 1900 Turbo Hair Dryer from the excellent selection of hair dryers at Misikko.com (which is sort of the new Folica), and I have to say [...]

I was lucky enough to try By Terry’s Light Expert Foundation, and I’m happy to [...]
