I just got a make over on Monday at the Bobbi Brown counter from a great woman named Nikki. I recommend her! I loved what she did, and even though I am a make up artists as well, I can always learn something new from an expert like Nikki. I spent more than I should [...]

I Am Sad My New Lipstick Is Yucky

It’s Getting Hot In Here
Now that we are heading into warmer weather, this is a good time to remember what heat and humidity does to our products. Once, I had the bright idea to leave my sunscreen in my car, so I could reapply when needed. One warm day, I pumped out a little of the lotion with SPF, [...]

Jen Worick Loves Beauty Alert!
by Jennifer Worick I’ve seen the occasional article over the years that discussed the importance of chucking cosmetics and products after a certain period of time. I’ve seen how grody a Kaboodles box bought in junior high and chock full of years of makeup can be. An episode of Tyra scared the bejeezus out of [...]
