Kristina's Beautiful Green Beauty Picks - Part 1

Green beauty. What is so interesting to me about so-called green beauty trend, besides the fact that it empowers consumers to make environmentally-conscious decisions, is the fact that many of these formulations are rather old-fashioned and simple. Some jojoba oil maybe, perhaps a little chamomile infusion, and maybe some tea tree oil or aloe vera. This is not to say that they aren’t sophisticated formulations but they are ultimately somewhat [...]

Getting To Know Our Weekly Roundup Members #2

The Non Blonde is the first beauty blog I started reading. Gaia has an intelligence, sensibility and reverence for all things beauty that is a rare combination. She has exquisite taste, and I know if she loves something that it is worth investigating. She has a killer sense of humour- very dry and smart- and I often laugh out loud at her posts. She has an uncanny ability to find [...]

Random Beautiful Thoughts

Music- The car is where I do my best listening…on heavy rotation lately is Kanye West’s new album with heavy repeat for Lost In The World with Bon Iver and All of The Lights for car dancing and singing with my girls, but Cee Lo Green has won me over and made me want to go out dancing with Bright Lights Bigger City Book- Late to the party with the poignant and so [...]

LipFusion Objects of Desire Are Beautiful for Holiday Lips

I love LipFusion Lip Plumper. It is the only lipgloss I keep on hand at. All. Times. Nothing gives a better softer lip while conditioning and giving me full pillowy lips. Some come close, but none match the performance, texture, taste and feel of LipFusion. I have the standard milky/clear tube as well as Sweet and love them both equally. I am a gloss girl through and through and just [...]

Maybelline The Falsies For Beautiful Lashes

I’ve tried many mascaras. I know I am not alone in this. My mascara criteria is that it must last, it must lengthen, and it must add some volume, but not be thick, clumpy and overly “mascara looking”. I have found waterproof formulas have addressed the longevity issues for me perfectly. My skin tends to be oily and a non waterproof mascara is half gone by lunch. It doesn’t even [...]
