Love Lub Dub!
One of the coolest things that happened for Beauty Alert! this year was meeting our new artist, Kendal Tull Esterbrook. She created a funny and cool image for us that we turned into a girly greeting card. Her website, lubdubart.com, tells the story of our awesome time together!
Tweezers That Actually Work
Finding a good pair of tweezers is harder than it may seem. Some of the most expensive and well advertised tweezers are not well made. It is one of the most frustrating things, spending money on something that is billed as the very best, and then realizing it is a big waste of money. Sometimes [...]
Odacite Makes Fresh, Organic Skin Care
I heard once that Americans don’t like words they can’t pronounce. Whether it be personal names or business names, keep away from anything that isn’t easy to say or spell. Uh oh. My name is Stacya, pronounced Sta-sha. And this company I like Odacite…..I am not sure how to pronounce it, yet anyway. The company [...]

Telling A Friend Their Make-up is Messed up
I got an email the other day from a friend who needed advice on how to help her mother with her eyeliner. Her mom wears an eyeliner that ends up all under her eyes. This has been going on for a while now, but…how to bring it up in a way that promotes change, but [...]
Teen Vogue!
I love being in Teen Vogue, especially since Alissa and I met in high school when she was a freshman and I was a year ahead. Yay!
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 [...]
