Ulta Beauty Coconut Cream Body Butter
Finally, we had our first day in the 70s, and in some areas of Massachusetts, it made it to 80.

Marcia’s Review of Versed Smooth Landing Eye Balm
In writing this review of Versed Smooth Landing Eye Balm, I want you to know that I am a certified eye cream addict. I need to join Eyecream Anonymous but I won’t.

Korres Spread Joy Olive Blossom Body Care Collection
In December, I placed an order with Korres. I can’t remember for sure if I bought the terrific holiday box, “Spread Joy”, Olive Blossom trio in order to spend enough money to get points that would get me a free product, but I think that’s what happened. What I remember is that the “Spread Joy”… Continue reading Korres Spread Joy Olive Blossom Body Care Collection

Scorolash Eyelash Volumizing Growth Serum
I was late to the party in learning about the Grande Lash Class Action lawsuit (here).

The controversial ingredient at the… Continue reading Scorolash Eyelash Volumizing Growth Serum

Lilibridge Bags: Women-Owned Company from Boston!
Today I went to Town Hall to pay my property taxes, and then I stopped on the next block in our teeny, tiny downtown to go to the Post Office.

I don’t know if Ulta still changes up the options with each quarter,… Continue reading Ulta & Sephora 2nd Quarter Birthday Freebies
Shiseido Urban Environment Sun Dual Care SPF 42
I’ve been on the hunt for what I thought was a clear, mineral sunscreen from Dr. Brandt. I wanted to try it before I bought it. I tried Ulta, Macy’s, Nordstrom, and Sephora. Macy’s carries Dr. Brandt’s products online but not in the store. Not helpful. In the meantime, I learned that the dropper used… Continue reading Shiseido Urban Environment Sun Dual Care SPF 42
