I’m such a magpie with beauty products. There is always a new sparky one that catches my eye and off I run, chasing a new holy grail. I am oily skinned and acne prone, which has always seemed quite unfair, especially when one is, ahem, over forty. My younger daughter is going through the acne…
The Future Called: It Wants It’s Sunscreen Back
I love having my mind blown by amahzing skincare and beauty products. Remember Vichy proEVEN? Still loving it, still can’t imagine life without it. So, now that Vichy proEVEN has made our skin tone gorgeous, we need to protect it. We knew that already but after a winter of living indoors like trolls under a…
Lily Of The Valley Perfumes Bloom in May
I don’t know why, but this time of year makes me crave the sweet, pure and simple scent of lily of the valley. They do always bloom now, and I grew up in house that was surrounded by them. My friends and I would pluck the tiny little stems with those perfect white blossoms and…
Everything Is Coming Up Roses…In My Living Room
I love the smell of roses. On my skin, on my hands and in my house. Crabtree & Evelyn Rosewater Home Fragrance is a gorgeous and delicate way to make your environment smell like a fresh bouquet of roses. I would say it smells like how I imagine a pink rose smells like. A red…

Video! A Perfume Lesson, Pretty Spring Perfumes, Sheer Red Lippy & Glitter!
In which I discuss one of my pet peeves with the perfume industry. It’s not earth shattering or groundbreaking news, but I think it’s important to be able to distinguish fact from fun in the cosmetic industry. Right? Links: The 2 perfumes I mention are Houbigant Quelques Fleurs and Guerlain Jardins de Bagatelle. The sheer…
That Violet Perfume Is So Purple-y
I love violet perfumes. The “love at first sight” flower…fitting. They are soft, simple and innocent. Why innocent? Hm, I’m not sure. Somehow I associate violet with babies or grandmothers, or candy, and all of those things are pretty darn sweet & innocent. They is an airy and fresh feel to violet perfumes that to my thinking…
Givenchy & Liv Tyler Make Rosy Sweet Music Together
Givenchy has released a new version of Very Irresistible for Spring 2012, Electric Rose, on counters this month. Kind of a tricky name, if you ask me, as the rose in this perfume is actually soft, gently fruity and sweet. The gorgeous and stunning Liv Tyler rocks the house in the new single and video…
