I love nail polish, I really do. But it can't be plain and boring. No, no it can't. I'm also a busy person and I don't have hours to devote to elaborate nail art. Well, that's not true. I may just be too lazy to devote hours to elaborate nail art. Anyway, I wanted something cute and fun for Spring and for Easter. When I saw these pastel nail polishes from Sinful Colors, I knew that they ...

This is a super easy nail look that is packing a real punch. This is perfect for St Patrick's Day nails. It's just 2 polishes, both of which dried super fast and were crazy-forgiving. Sound like your type of nail? It's definitely mine! I started off with a base of Nailtiques Formula 2 Nail Protein strengthener. I had a bit of damage to my nails, and figured it couldn't hurt. ...

I love a good smokey eye. Unfortunately, I have teensy tiny little eyes and the look sometimes is overpowering for my features. Now, you can get a similar look quickly and easily. This is a look that, while perfectly fine for daytime, I wouldn’t normally wear to work or running errands.

I am a huge fan of independent designers. I find that they really seem to come up with stuff that’s quite unusual and unique. Generally, it’s not something that you’re going to find in every store, or encounter a ton of people wearing your item when you go somewhere. One of the things that makes Indie design so great - the unusualness, the scarcity, the lacking of major distribution - is ...
I am a bit of a lip balm addict. I can’t stand for my lips to be dry or not lubricated., and I love to try new flavors. Well, our good friends a ChapStick have us covered. They’ve introduced two new limited edition flavors - Cake Batter and Velvet Cupcake. Say whaaaat??? That’s the very reaction I had when I first heard this news.
