When I first started my blog more than 5 years ago, my friend Nancy who was always a beauty maven asked me about City Lips. She had seen something about it on TV, and she asked my opinion. I was embarrassed to say I wasn’t familiar with it, but I told her I would check …
Over the years, Ipsy has introduced me to some terrific products that have become part of my regular routine. Last month, I received another new-to-me skincare brand that, when I first saw it in my Ipsy bag, was kind of a turn-off. Its name was Mudmasky. Kind of a dumb name, I thought. Turns out …

I have written about Scentbird and some of the fragrances I’ve purchased. For $14.95, I can select a 30 day purse size 8 ml atomizer of the fragrance of my …
My four favorite bath and body brands in no particular order are artisan-made Nature Island Botanicals, English-brand Molton Brown, Dutch-brand RITUALS, and Farmhouse Fresh from Texas. They all are natural, high quality, and have absolutely divine scents. As you know, I love a bargain, and I usually wait for things to be on sale before …
Things are very sad and gloomy for the U.S. right now, and it’s hard to come up with strategies to see our way through these dark days. Frankly, it’s kind of tough to come up with beauty reviews right now, so I am taking a day off. Also, a website registered in Singapore has stolen …
