Skin Proud Skincare
A beauty trend right now is skincare marketed to younger teens – forget about Noxema, we are talking about skincare that’s non-stripping, mindful of the skin barrier, and feels comforting. It’s a theory I have, and here’s my proof: Skin … Continue reading

New Makeup From Trinny London and Fenty Beauty
Honestly, misting setting spray before I even get started with makeup (after sunscreen) is a game-changer and it helps everything last so much longer. Trinny London has a new foundation – BFF Stay all Day – and it actually does … Continue reading

Frederic Malle Geranium Pour Monsieur Perfume Review
Even I’m surprised that I like a perfume that smells like minty herbal mouthwash, but it’s 25 degrees today and I went for a walk outside so Geranium Pour Monsieur is perfect. This is as close to kitsch that Frederic … Continue reading
Prada Les Infusions Perfume Collection
Prada’s Infusion collection is one of the more over-looked perfume line – maybe because it’s not quite their high end line. Truly, Infusion d’Iris is one of the best in the line and the others either have the same base … Continue reading
