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, [...]

Sole Survivor
Finding a great beauty product at a farmer’s market seems unlikely. But last Sunday, I came across a local company called Brown Butterfly. I bought the foot cream they make, called “Sole Survivor”. It is light and creamy, like whipped cream, and it has tea tree, lavender and peppermint. It contains no chemical preservatives, so [...]

A New Jar
I just opened my new jar of Bobbi Brown’s tinted moisturizer with SPF. I love products that come in a big, glass jar. I know that products with a pump keep bacteria out…but this time I promised myself “no double dipping” and I will use only a Q-Tip…and no fingers. That is the hard part, [...]

Keeping Track of Your Golf Ball
My client’s mother uses our Beauty Alert! waterproof and writable labels to keep track of her golf balls. Not only do they stay on the surface of the ball, the label can withstand all kinds of abuse. I have even put one through the dishwasher on my Pyrex dish. Anyway, good to know that even [...]
Mascara and Your Eye Health
Mascara, according to the FDA website, should be tossed between 2 and 4 months. Beauty Alert! says 3 months, because a medical journal* that published test results gives the actual levels of bacteria in a controlled test, and 3 seems to be the number. I have a client who gets a new mascara every month, [...]

Eye and Lip Pencils
Eye and lip pencils must be kept sharp. I keep seeing things online that give a “use by date” for pencils, and the truth is, if you keep them sharp and sharpen them each time you use them, it is a good guideline for keeping them clean and fresh. Also, you can clean your pencil [...]

Flash Back
This is a photograph of my father’s ex-wife. She was an actress in New York, and this is a picture that was taken at a photo shoot for an audition. It was a test to see who would be the print model for a large cosmetics company. I don’t think she got the job, but [...]
