Even though I almost put the heat back on a couple of days ago, summer is on its way. I love the look of a tan, but I’ve got so much sun damage from years of too much sun exposure, that I pile on the SPF, wear a hat and sit under an umbrella at the beach. …
Arvazallia Argan Oil Premium Hair Treatment Oil and Hydrating Mask: Silkiness Maximized!
And the moral of the story for me is get out of my comfort zone. Break old habits. Try something new! What am I talking about? Hair care, of course.

Giveaway: Reviva Labs Peptides & More Anti-Wrinkle Cream
For years, I stuck to one moisturizer from Olay. I was very loyal. Till I became a beauty blogger, I had no idea the variety of moisturizing and skincare treatment products that were out there including skincare products that were “better-for-you” with more natural ingredients. I recently had the opportunity to try a couple of …

Gabriel Lipstick: Natural, Mineral-Based, Gluten-Free
Oops, wrong post published this morning. Here’s the right one! Though I haven’t given up my regular makeup brands, I have been trying to try more organic makeup and skincare products. Products that I apply all over my body and on my lips are the ones that I start to worry about most. A friend …
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder, Luminous Light
I’m a little late to the party on this one, but better late than never. And Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder has just been released in a trio palette of shades that will be a permanent part of the product lineup. But I bought mine two days before the trio palette was launched. Isn’t that always …

Our world is filled with chemicals, some benign, others not so much. But fortunately more and more dedicated individuals, often women entrepreneurs, have been creating natural alternatives for the beauty and skincare products that we wear on our skin instead of the synthetic products that are ubiquitous on store shelves. Tania Reuben created Pure Natural Diva …
