Review: LipSense by SeneGence Long Lasting Liquid Lip Color

How many times have you purchased a lippie that promised to be long wearing, only to wind up so disappointed that it quickly found it's way to the bottom of your makeup stash or nearest trash can?  It's happened to me more times than I care to remember.  True long wearing lip colors are out ...

An Anesthesiologist's Solution To Bikini Waxing Pain

An Anesthesiologist's Solution To Bikini Waxing Pain

Who dreads a bikini wax?  Maybe I should ask who doesn't dread a bikini wax!  I'm a true believer that if it's done correctly by a seasoned pro, the pain is definitely minimized and it's not as bad of an experience as it's feared to be.  But it still hurts!  I've had my share of ...

I’ve Gotta Have It: Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream

July 17, 2010

I’ve been reading about Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream all over the place, and Karla Sugar has excellent swatches of them all.  I’m a little older these days, and perhaps I can’t rock the brights I used to (at least not to the intensity I’d like).  But these lure me in like a moth [...]

First Look: Lancome French Coquettes Collection for Fall 2010

July 16, 2010

Oh this is just so sultry!  Details of the new Lancome French Coquettes Collection for fall 2010 are just hitting, and it looks smokin’ hot.  You’ll find it on lancome.com now, but it’s slated for a national release in August.  I cannot believe fall collections are hitting already.  I don’t know why I act so [...]

Currently Loving: Purple Lab LUVAH Lip Color

July 8, 2010

Way back when, I tried out Purple Lab’s first take on double duty beauty.  I knew the creator (the very, very lovely Karen Robinovitz) was really on to something with Huge Lips Skinny Hips–in fact, she kinda got me hooked on Purple Lab with just that one product.  Here we are a year later, and [...]

Currently Loving: LORAC Hollywood Hot List Collection

June 30, 2010

Okay, so I’m kinda bummed right now.  My intentions weren’t to make you drool over this and then say SURPRISE!  It’s sold out!  But right now, I can’t find it on ULTA or on Sephora’s site.  So hopefully there are some of these LORAC Hollywood Hot List value kits in a store near you, because [...]

Review: Lancome Color Design Matte Lipstick

June 11, 2010

If you’re a matte kinda girl, you know that matte anything can be kind of difficult.  While matte products like foundation and lipstick deliver great coverage, they can often look very dry and cakey–and you know how it goes with lipstick.  Matte lipstick is just HARD to wear for some people but they want the [...]

Currently Loving: e.l.f. Luscious Liquid Lipstick

June 7, 2010

I have to give credit where it’s due to the lovely Recessionista from Nouveau Cheap.  As I was cruising the beauty aisles at Target last week looking for the perfect purple and gold nail polish colors to use for an LA Lakers-inspired manicure and having a phone conversation with Miss R, she told me to [...]

Review: bareMinerals Buzzworthy Collection

May 28, 2010

This review could also pass as a “Currently Loving” post because I think the new bareMinerals Buzzworthy Collection is that awesome!  Five products (six if you count the lipgloss/lipstick duo separately) for $36 is just ridiculous, and considering what the products are for that price–it becomes stupid ridiculous at that point. Buzzworthy contains: • Well [...]

Review: Smashbox Lip Tech

May 5, 2010

And now for something totally different in lip color–Smashbox Lip Tech.  When you open up the compact, is it a lip balm?  Maybe a lip gloss?  Lipstick?  Nope!  It’s an innovative satin-matte lip color fortified with vitamin E and emollients to provide coverage that’s close to a lipstick, without the drying feel and high-maintenance wear.  [...]
