I'm thrilled to help you attain and maintain the most flawless skin possible. I love the beauty industry and will work diligently to keep you well informed on not only tried and true regimens and products, but also share with you new discoveries in anti-aging, acne therapies, and all aspects of achieving luminous skin as well.
After 25 years in the beauty biz as an aesthetician, nurse in dermatology, skincare journalist, and providing expert advice for a major skincare website, I decided it was time to share my experience and secrets. I couldn't possibly do this alone though.
Thankfully, I have the help from my good friend Gina, my skincare sidekick! She is a "skincare junkie," who has tried a zillion and one products. I joke with her and tell her she needs to start Beauty Anonymous meetings… My name is Gina….and I'm a skin productaholic! After battling acne for years, Gina now has a peaches and cream complexion and is eager to share her secrets for achieving clear, brilliant skin.
In addition to skin care, we’ll be covering all kinds of other topics related to health and beauty. The sky is the limit!
We all know how exciting it is when Oprah picks her favorites and shares them with us. Right? But YOU our fortunate readers are even luckier! Oprah may be rich, but we have connections! We get to try hundreds of beauty products. Ah yes, it's a tough job, but somebody has to do it. So I say you all deserve the benefits as well. I will no longer keep these secret weapons to myself. Enjoy and welcome to Beauty Research by Karen!

I felt remiss in leaving out a couple of key points in my entry yesterday titled "I Lost 7 lbs. by Making a Few Changes In My Eating Habits…You Can Too!" I couldn't wait to blog today to let you know what they are. One is obvious; you need to get some exercise each day. I chose walking. I love to walk and I rewarded myself with a small...

Last week while visiting my sister, I found something rather disturbing on her refrigerator door. It was a picture of she and I from like ten years ago with a post-it note stuck to it that read, "this is what we're supposed to look like." Well I realize they say if you place an old photo of yourself on your frig you will refrain from eating...

If you were to choose only one beauty product to take with you if were to be stranded somewhere without any of your makeup what would you choose? I pondered that watching an episode of Survival. One of the contestants chose his skate board out of all the things he could've picked. I thought that was such a ridiculous choice. Wouldn't you bring...

I love beauty tips so much I spent an entire two or three hours searching for the best ever. Here's what I found: Have no make-up on but somebody knocks at your door? Simply bend over as far as you can for about 30 seconds and you'll have a beautiful glow. It will look as though you're wearing a pretty, natural blush. However say you want...
