I’m a big fan of OZ Naturals, and I recently had a chance to try OZ Naturals Pro-Retaxinol 2.5 Serum. Actually, I had been on the hunt for a serum with retinol and also with hyaluronic acid, so I was thrilled when I heard about the OZ Naturals Pro-Retaxinol 2.5 Serum. OZ Naturals Pro-Retaxinol 2.5 …
Keeping my word, I’m back to announce the cosmetics giveaway that I mentioned in my review of the Disney Villains Soho Beauty Makeup Bag for Halloween 2015. I’ve been putting away makeup, skincare and fragrance items that I thought would make a nice gift and here they are. To refresh your memory from yesterday 🙄 …
When I was in San Antonio a couple of weeks ago, I wandered into Walgreen’s and, of course, I ended up in the cosmetics aisle. There I saw a display of the new limited edition Disney Villains makeup bags from Soho Beauty! OMG, the cuteness! I was going to pick up one of them, but …
Wooden Watch Review In spite of the fact that summer is my favorite season of the year, there is no doubt that the colors and fabrics of autumn really are the most beautiful, especially here in New England when the leaves begin to change color. And my closet becomes more appealing when I begin to …
I have thick, coarse, color-treated hair that was more dried out from a summer spent at the beach than I realized. I wear a hat at the beach as often as I can, but I get too hot wearing a hat when I’m outside jogging or gardening. So in spite of trying to do the …
This past week, I had two dinner engagements in Boston to celebrate birthdays, and it gave me a chance to get a little more dressed up than usual. And in figuring out what to put on my nails, I decided to revisit an old friend, Deborah Lippmann Single Ladies, a vampy, deep burgundy that was …

I know I’ve said this before, but I measure the passage of time in ipsy bags, and I got my September bag a couple of weeks ago. This year is just flying by! I wish it would slow down. This month’s theme is Face Fashion, and all of my products were face makeup, skincare or beauty …
I bought a Beautyblender months ago, and I love it. I don’t use it everyday. I switch off with kabuki brushes and foundation brushes. I’m always looking to save money. I would rather spend on something I really want and look for ways to do other things more inexpensively. I’ve been cleaning my Beautyblender with …
I’m a small person, and for me, small is beautiful! Stowaway Cosmetics had the brilliant idea of making their cosmetics in smaller sizes. Why is that a great idea you ask? Because it is so rare to use up makeup before it expires! In a recent study conducted by Stowaway and Poshly, it was shown that …
As I’ve mentioned before, I am the serum queen! I adore serums. I believe that they provide extra oomph to my moisturizer. I love to try new ones. About a month ago, I received MitoQ Power Antioxidant Rejuvenation Serum to try in exchange for an honest review. Brief Background on MitoQ and Its Mitochondrial Research MitoQ …

It’s the weekend!, and I’m kinda pooped after a week of travel to Atlanta and San Antonio for work. So I’m looking forward to a restful weekend. But it’s going to be a chilly, rainy, windy, gloomy weekend here in MA. 🙁 Hopefully, the hurricane won’t hit us, but we will be getting more rain …
As a kid, I was in love with Davy Crockett because of the TV show on Disney on Sunday nights. I really wanted a coon-skinned hat, but my mother got me a Davy Crockett patch that she sewed on my jacket instead. Not quite the same as the hat, but better than nothing. In late August, …
