Makeup Review: Smashbox Bronze Lights in Deep Matte
You may think that brown skin really doesn’t need a bronzer. That couldn’t be farther from the truth. Bronzers have a plethora of uses for brown skin — powder, foundation, highlighter, contour and more. I have been using Smashbox Bronze…
Makeup Product Review: Laura Mercier Candleglow Soft Luminous Foundation
At fiftysomething, I have a whole new outlook on makeup. Less is more. Glow is a must. None of that 7 layer dip on my face. Just great skin and foundation that keeps me glowing. Well guess what, Laura Mercier…

What I’m Trying Now: Murad Rapid Age Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum
I’m not ashamed to say that I have pretty good skin for a 58 year old woman. Not perfect, but pretty darn good. I still have my issues that I’m fighting, one of the foremost being hyperpigmentation. Despite my best…

Budget Beauty Tuesday Review: Nubian Heritage Indian Hemp & Haitian Vetiver Hand Cream
I wash my hands so often, and use hand sanitizer constantly, that I’m prone to dry skin. So, I’m pretty much addicted to a good hand cream. Now, there are several factors that go into a hand cream being a…
Makeup Review: BECCA Afterglow Palette
I love glowing skin. There isn’t much better that a fresh face, not heavily made up with a glowing finish. Not that overdone fake finish like you see all over Instagram and YouTube, but a glow that looks like it’s…

Monday Morning Must-Haves: Lavanila Vanilla Bean Creamy Body Scrub
It’s Monday morning again, and I’m on to my shower ritual that gets me off to a great start. I’m quite fond of body scrubs. No, scratch that. I’m obsessed with body scrubs. My most recent “love” is Lavanila Vanilla Bean…
Budget Beauty Tuesday Review: Makeup Revolution Eyeshadow Palette in AFFIRMATION
I love a great eyeshadow palette. Unfortunately though, there are too many palettes out there that are filled with colors I would never touch personally. Maybe professionally, but they just aren’t a reasonable choice for me. What I do love…
Skin Care Product Review: KORRES Greek Yoghurt 3 In 1 Cleansing, Toning And Eye Make-Up Removing Emulsion
I really quite fond of creamy cleanser’s these days. As I age, I am finding that cleansers that are moist and luxurious are my preference. I recently started using KORRES Greek Yoghurt 3 In 1 Cleansing, Toning And Eye Make-Up Removing…

Makeup Product Review: Laura Mercier Daring By Night Eye & Cheek Colour Palette
I’m all about multitasking beauty products, which is why I’m such a fan of makeup palettes. However, not all palettes are not the same. All too often, I have gotten palettes and they have a gazillion colors and I only…

Monday Morning Must-Haves: AHAVA DeadSea Water Mineral Body Exfoliator
There is no better way for me to start my morning than with a shower and an invigorating scrub! I’m so not a morning person, and Mondays are forever the bane of my existence, so to make this girl a…

Spa(ahhh) Day Sunday: Get Brighter Skin with Murad Intensive-C® Radiance Peel
I love my skin best when it’s clear, bright and radiant. But who doesn’t? Despite being an esthetician and “beauty expert” I don’t always practice what I preach. I sleep in my makeup. I don’t mask every week. I’ll skip…

Budget Beauty Tuesday: Essence I Love Extreme Volume Mascara
I love mascara. Even amidst the false lash frenzy that’s taken over, I’m loyal to mascara. I’m still picky about my mascara though. It has to give me the look of false lashes-almost. But it definitely has to volumize, lift…

Skin Care Product Review: Ole Henriksen Empower™ Foaming Milk Cleanser
I remember once upon a time I just loved cleansing my skin until it was completely devoid of oil and it felt as tight as a drum. I don’t know what the heck I was thinking. Over the years I’ve…
