That is such exciting news, Christina.
I’m not content to just check it out online, I’m going off to buy a hard copy.
Atta girl! It IS pretty exciting – I saw it in the store today before my mail arrived, so now I have two copies.
Wow. I am fairly new to blogging, would be great to get recognition like this. Well done
Way to go! On the one hand, I’m totally jealous of you, but on the other, I know how hard you work and your content is fabulous, so you totally deserve it.

Congratulations on your recognition from Allure. You deserve it!
And now for more pressing matters…did you get to see PR on Wed? If not, catch a re-run pronto so we can dish.
I was flipping through the new Allure magazine on a plane home from vaca last night and knew i had to log on. I am a self-pronounced beauty junkie also and my tastes on skin care and makeup has run the gamut since the time I was 15. At 25, having conquered the formidable acne years, I’ve taken to finding cleansers, toners and only the best foundations/concealers/powders to rid my skin of oil, allow my pores to “breathe” and work overtime on decreasing the start of fine lines i’m developing on my forehead and at the corners of my eyes. My mother has always been no-fuss about makeup and cleansers and thinks I’m nuts for having spent the time and money I have on products. Easy for her to say – with the exception of some redness around her nose my mother has the perfect complexion. A bar of Dove soap in the shower is her beauty regimen. I used to envy her for this reason but I’ve come to realize that shopping around for the best skin care items and makeup is somehow in my blood and I refuse to give it up. My question remains – what is better: a beauty product line or a smorgasbord of different options to create the glowing skin I’ve always lusted after?? I’d also love to share ideas and comments with the rest of you beauty bloggers.
Thank you all so much – it is so exciting to be in Allure – unreal, really!!
Lindsay – There is really no reason to use a particular line – picking and choosing products that work for you is just fine. If there is a line that works great for you, sometimes that is a little easier on you, but totally unnecessary. Thanks so much for your comment, and I hope to see you back around these parts soon!

I just found your site through the allure article. How cool to see a fellow BCS resident!
Wow! I am also a beauty junkie. I am new to the computer and being online–don’t be too hard on me–I live in rural Ohio. It is such a relief to know that there are MANY people out there like me. I found your site in ALLURE, yours is the third that I’ve looked at, and the second one that I’ve put on my favorites. (I also liked Bergdorfgoodman, she’s from Ohio too, but didn’t care much for Jack & Hill) I also love the Queen Helene Masque, I discovered it in ALLURE last year and it works wonders on my acne-prone skin. Congradulations, I bet you’re gonna be swamped with new people after that article. I know I’ll be back soon!
From one beauty blogger to another–3 cheers for you Christina! It’s nice to be validated that you really do have a fabulous blog!
xoxo

Tonya – Howdy! Beauty pickin’s here in BCS are rather slim, but thankfully glorious Houston is right around the corner, eh?
MissMelissa – I am blogging from small town Texas, so don’t worry about your small town – we can find beauty anywhere! You did good bookmarking BlogdorfGoodman, Annie has some great stuff going on there. And thanks for bookmarking me too! Thanks also, so much, for taking the time to comment, ladies – I sure appreciate it and hope to see you back around soon!!
LBB – Thanks so much for the cheers – we need to have a virtual glass of champagne!!!
