Today we step away from the academic side of the Beauty Ingredients Snob series to talk about straight up beauty. Today is all about beauty, drama and more beauty! Well I suppose that’s not entirely true because I suppose the ingredients in these products play an important role as well. If they didn...

I had such a nice response from our readers about yesterday’s aromatherapy article that I thought I’d write a little more today about it. I thought I’d share with you all what type of reaction is provoked by certain essential and precious oils’ individual scents. Additionally I will list my favorite...

Lately, you've probably noticed how incredibly into aromatherapy I've been. I keep writing about it because I'm so impressed with it. I remember back when it was kind of poo-poo'd within the industry or at least within the population as a whole. But then I would think; there is indeed...

Being a skincare expert for over 25 years I’m often asked what is the best skincare brand I’ve ever used both personally and professionally. The problem with that question is oftentimes there are too many variables to answer with just one brand. What I’ve found is that usually the person asking the question...

I realized that even when we do great gifts list (and they are definitely great gifts!) we don’t do enough for what the guys might want.

Today my best friend and I were so bored we decided to do what we used to do to cheer us up. Go shopping! However, problem was, we had no money to spend! So we decided to go to some discount stores such as TJ Maxx, HomeGoods, and Tuesday Morning. We ended up having a blast! Not to mention, we found some...

Just wanted to let you all know I haven’t forgotten about my blog entry today but started writing about a great deal I found on a StriVectinSD gift set and before I knew it, it was like 5 pages long and I’m still not finished! I decided that I would break it up into a couple of articles instead of one...

Yesterday was my niece’s 30th birthday so I sent her a little birthday picture text message.
