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 ...
Introducing Two New Chapstick Flavors
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. I had no idea that there were new Chapstick flavors. ...
Super Freaky by NaiLuv | Manicure Monday
It's Manicure Monday again. This is a sneak peek of the NaiLuv gel nails system. This color is called Super Freaky and it's a red glitter in a clear base. Sooo pretty. I'm wearing two coats of the color, but I think you could do one coat over another color to mix up the look. I did notice after I took this pic that I have a little cleanup to do. Look for a full feature on the NaiLuv ...
Rocking Out with Lyric Culture
Sometimes, you just struggle to find the words that you’re searching for. How do you express your feelings and emotions? For me, one of the things that brings out the emotions is music. While the melody can be powerful, what really gets to you is the lyrics. What better way to show the world what you feel than by wearing your heart on your sleeve. Or your hoodie, a scarf, or even a ...
How To Use New Hair Care Products
I’ve always prided myself on my love and knowledge of beauty products. Especially for someone that wasn’t necessarily in the industry. I always managed to keep up with the new products and major developments. Until the past few years, that is! I don’t know if stuff is just coming at me faster than I can keep up or what! Sometimes I go to a store and I have no idea what a product is for or what ...
Girly by Revlon | Valentine’s Day Nails | Manicure Monday
This is Girly by Revlon. Girly is a mix of large and small glitters in oh so feminine shades of pinks and purples. There’s also a little tiny bit of holo for some flares and flashes of color. I’m not totally sure, but I think one of the pink glitters is the holo. The carrier is a soft pink gel, which leaves just the faintest blush of pink on your nails. It doesn’t interfere with a base color, ...
Get Every Drop with this Beauty Spatula
One of the most frustrating things with beauty products is pump bottles. Don’t get me wrong - I LOVE a product that comes in a pump. The frustrating part comes into play when you can no longer pull product up through the pump. This happens for a myriad of reasons - clogging, pump malfunction, or, most commonly, coming to the end of the jar. I was recently introduced to a ...
Shenandoah by Terri Michele Fragrances
One of the great things that we love is fragrances and perfumes. They can instantly set the tone for the day or change your mood. Are you in a fun and flirty mood? Go with something playful! Feeling sensuous? Choose a deep, mysterious scent. Of course, you need an everyday scent, too. One that you just reach for and apply without having to think about. Shenandoah is one of these kinds of ...
