The Ole Henriksen Power Peel facial trio set is hard to beat! It is a three-step at-home facial peel that combines both a physical exfoliation scrub and a chemical exfoliation peel. It’s a handy all-in-one kit really. The three steps are as follows: Almond Polish – This grainy exfoliator scrub is applied on cleansed skin, […]
It is distinctly possible that the Bare Escentuals 5-in-1 BB Advanced Performance Cream Eyeshadow Broad Spectrum SPF 15 has a permanent place in my makeup bag! My favorite shade is the Soft Linen. I have also tried the shade called Divine Wine but it’s a little too intense for me. During the week, I use […]
So your lips are exfoliated, moisturized, plumped, and primed — it is time for color! Whether you prefer a bright red stain or a nude pink gloss, this is the fun part. In a recent article I read, the author was purporting to need One Lipstick. Personally, that sounds lovely in theory but I am […]
We have now scrubbed and moisturized, but what if we want to take our lip care to the next level? In addition to lip scrubs and lip balms, we can also treat our lips to plumpers and masks and oils and serums and primers. Until recently, I did not even know some of these products […]

I personally like using the physical methods […]
What is it about lip products that is so addictive? Why do so many women own one foundation, perhaps one or two blushes, but almost always seem to have a bagful of lip balms and scrubs and plumpers and sticks and glosses and pencils? Personally, I suspect it is because it is such a simple […]
As I have stated before, I have a lip balm addiction, however, that is for a different day. Today we are looking at color, and there are more options than most of us know what to do with! While we may stick with the same face and perhaps even eye makeup, lips are typically where […]
With a smooth complexion and concealed imperfections, we are ready for a touch of color in our cheeks! As it seems to be with almost all products nowadays, there are multiple formulations for blush as well — silky powders, liquid stains, creamy sticks and pencils, even spray-on mists. (Personally, I would probably avoid the spray-on mist […]
