ChiaDerm Serum and Balm: Serious Skincare from Chia Seeds
A few months ago, I was sent ChiaDerm Serum and Balm to try out and review. It was late autumn, I think, when I received them, and I put them aside while I was finishing up with other skincare products. Little did I know how important these two skincare products would become for me once …
Valentine’s Day, Hearts and LUSH Bath Bombs!
Valentine’s Day would be my favorite holiday if it weren’t in February.

I love anything with hearts on it or anything heart-shaped. Â I …

This week in the Boston area featured “snowmageddon”. And where I live on the North Shore, the weatherman was right on target.

Diva D’Or Derma Roller: Torture Device or Clearer Skin?
Diva D’Or Derma Roller is a skincare tool, a handle with a rolling head that holds 540 titanium micro-needles 1.0 mm in length. When I was given the opportunity to try the Diva D’Or Derma Roller, I wasn’t sure I wanted to go through with it. I was the kid who hid in the bushes when …
