Amalie Beauty has become one of my favorite natural and organic skincare brands because their products are so well-made and my dry skin loves them. Recently, I wrote about REWIND Anti-aging Face Oil from Amalie’s Farm to Face collection of skincare products where the ingredients are grown organically on their Indiana farm and the finished …
During the holidays, Zoya had a number of really good sales. I took advantage of one that was 50% off and free shipping, there must have been a minimum. I bought three polishes and a topcoat. I already wrote about Zoya Cathy, a neutral pink-peach cream (reviewed/swatched here). And I seem to have misplaced my …
Short and sweet: have a wonderful weekend! There is a fabulous new makeup subscription box called Deck of Scarlet. Every two months you will receive a new makeup palette curated by a popular YouTuber. Prime Beauty got ahold of the January/February Edition! What if you never used fragrances but suddenly found a way to enhance …
Thanks again for sticking with me while I go through my website backend woes. I am hoping the consultant I found will be able to help me soon. I really appreciate those of you who can get onto my website to try to leave even a short comment. That seems to be another intermittent problem …
Just in case you have had trouble getting on my site during the past week and a half, I apologize. I am not 100% sure what’s going on. I seem to be having both problems with the coding of my site as well as issues with the company that hosts my site. If you …
Makeup favorites may be even more personal than choices in skincare. But what the heck, I want to share my makeup favorites that I discovered in 2017. As with my skincare post, it is possible that not all of the products were new in 2017, though a number of them were, but they were …
I had been eager to try some skincare products from The Ordinary since the raves about the brand last year. But because I have so many skincare products, I never placed an order. When I was chatting on the phone with Jeff’s younger daughter before the holidays, she told me how much she loved …
I still haven’t completely gotten used to typing or writing 2018. Have you? Our Fashion Flash host this week is the fabulous Cindy from Prime Beauty Blog, and she says this week’s new edition is the first Fashion Flash of 2018. Hmm, I thought last week’s edition was. But no matter. There’s a lot of …
I’m a fan of lip crayons because they’re so easy to use. So I was delighted to receive two shades from the new Marc Jacobs Le Marc Liquid Lip Crayon collection to try out for review from Influenster, the online social media influencer group. They came nicely packaged in the traditional Marc Jacobs black boxes. …
Brrrrrr! After getting socked with another foot of snow, high winds, and a high tide that exceeded that of the Blizzard of ’78, now the temperature has plummeted again back to the below zero range. And it’s only the first week in January! Hopefully, Jeff will help me shovel the 75 foot walkway to my …
Ah, the last empties post for 2017. I used up a number of products, and I decided it was time to chuck out a bunch of mascaras that are too old to use. Although there were a couple of press samples in this batch of empties (Shiseido and Paula’s Choice), the vast majority were …
As I await the arrival of the Bomb Cyclone winter storm that is predicted to arrive early this morning, I am thinking let’s start the first week of 2018 with a giveaway! If one of your goals for 2018 is to master highlighting and contouring or just to do it more often, then this is …
Here we are with the first edition of Fashion Flash for 2018. This week’s host is the supremely talented Sheila from Painted Ladies. You gotta hop over to Painted Ladies, not only to check out this week’s edition of Fashion Flash, but to see how adorable Sheila looks in her New Year’s regalia! I didn’t …
Because skincare is such a big deal for me at this age, I have a lot more favorites when it comes to skincare than makeup even. Maybe not as exciting, but more important IMHO. Also, being a blogger of a certain age, I get to try lots more new skincare products than makeup. This …
Thank you so much for your support and friendship in 2017, a year that was a challenging one for some of us. 2018 is a time of new beginnings. I wish all the best to you and yours in the coming year!
