Get the Inside Scoop on Beauty for Women over 40
I’ve mentioned this about a million times: outside of makeup, my love is jewelry and accessories. A girl can never have enough IMHO. In that spirit, I’ve teamed up with some of the gals from Fashion Flash, and I’m kicking off a series of giveaways that we’re hosting over the next week or so. I’m giving away …
Monday is Fashion Flash day! While I introduce this week’s edition of Fashion Flash, the lifestyle, beauty, fashion, career, health and wellness e-mag for women over 40, I want to let you know that I’ve got a GIVEAWAY that starts tomorrow. Four other members of Fashion Flash and I will be giving away a very …
I think that Ipsy definitely continues to have the edge in the competition of inexpensive makeup subscriptions. I got another winner on Saturday from Ipsy: all makeup! Yay! The theme is Summer Friday. When I worked in advertising in New York, we had summer Fridays. At one agency, we got out on Friday at 1pm, at …
The Beauty Spotlight Team continues its “Most Repurchased Cosmetics”. This week, we hear from Shipra from Taneja’s Bride blog. Shipra is about to have her second child any day now (the perfect host for a Mother’s Day weekend post), but she managed to get together her 5 most repurchased items. Now that’s dedication. Here’s what …
Since I started Never Say Die Beauty, I have mentioned a number of times my love and nostalgia for the Georgette Klinger Salon and Spa on Madison Avenue in New York (post here). I learned about Georgette Klinger many years ago from my college roommate at Barnard who had perfect skin but whose mom was generous enough …
In the run up to Mother’s Day, if you are still looking for gift ideas, I wanted to let you know about an opportunity to do good as well as give your mom, grandmother, aunt, sister, wife, or friend a fabulous gift. Kiehl’s has partnered with the International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children …
Beauty Junkees is my favorite great quality, affordable brand bar none. I love their brushes and sponges – IMHO, they are the best value around. And over the past few months, they’ve launched makeup! A few weeks ago, I introduced you to their beautiful blushes (here) that fit nicely into their sturdy, well-made, affordable magnetic …
When I got my first apartment many years ago upon entering graduate school, I went home to my parents’ house and rented a van to bring furniture from the basement to my apartment in New York. I needed a dresser, so I took my grandfather’s highboy dresser. I never knew my grandfather because he died when he …
If it’s Monday, it’s Fashion Flash! Time for this week’s edition of the lifestyle, fashion, beauty, travel, wellness, and health emag for women over 40! This week’s host is Moving Free with Mirabai. As always, there’s a real melange of fascinating and informative topics: what peptides do for your skin how the herb rhodiola can …
For the holidays, my friends Fintan and William gave me as part of my gift a Jurlique makeup case filled with travel size Jurlique skincare products. Jurlique was on my radar for some time, but I always have so many skincare products to test for review that it didn’t make sense for me to go …
I’m having problems with my laptop so I’ll make this short and sweet! Here’s this week’s blogposts from Beauty Spotlight Team, woo hoo! The BRAND NEW Hourglass Ambient Strobe Lighting Blush in Euphoric Fusion and Iridescent Flash just received an effusive review from Lola’s Secret Beauty Blog, and you will see why after you look …
In spite of being a beauty blogger, jewelry is my jam. Especially earrings. I must have over 100 pairs of earrings easily. When it comes to receiving a gift, earrings are always welcome IMHO. I am an earring addict. I can probably tell you how I acquired or for what occasion I received every single pair …
I’ve been wanting one of the Tarte round shadow palette for more than a year. The round shape really appeals to me. Every time Tarte has a sale I look at them, but up till recently I haven’t taken the plunge. The previous round palettes are great, but I already had similar shades. But when …
In April, I used up fewer products but more full size products. I love recycling full size products! As usual, the vast majority are skincare products. Some are already repurchases. Here’s what I finished up and what I thought about them. EO Everyone Hand Soap, Meyer Lemon + Mandarin: I love EO products. They smell …
I haven’t done a face of the day in ages. Instead of a review, I thought this might be a nice change of pace plus I’m using a few products that either I haven’t used in a long time or I’ve just purchased. Today was sadly a gray day for May 1. The only thing that …
