Sad but true, there are some beauty routines that I'm just far too impatient to partake in; and self-tanning is one of them. Unlike the Beauty Addict , who, god bless her, has perfected "The Art of the Tan", I just can't be bothered...
Last week, I passed along a cool little trick to cancel out redness around the eyes and instantly brighten, and today, I'm giving you a bit of makeup trickery to deal with another eye-area undesirable: those pesky dark under-eye circles. From celebrity...

As much as I'd like to say that I've embraced the "return" of lipstick, I have to admit that I'm a gloss girl at heart. I start the day with a slick of my favorite lippie, but I'm all about the gloss for the rest of the day;...
If there's one cosmetic "procedure" I would ever love to have, it would be one of those crazy expensive Zoom whitening treatments to get a smile that twinkles like the stars and is as bright as a thousand suns. Alas, I'm no big-time...

Like many of you, I'm starting to be concerned about (dare I say it) skin aging. So I've made it my mission to get serious about skincare, and if it takes five steps to make my skin more even-toned and radiant, so be it. Enter Somme Institute...
I love the idea of makeup delivering beautifying benefits. And mineral makeup, made up of all-natural minerals from the earth, has long been lauded for doing just that. My latest find, Hourglass Cosmetics's Oxygen Mineral Powder , goes one step further...
