I can’t wait to try this. I have been hearing such good things about it and lets face it… I love my gadgets. But, what I really like about this makeup sponge is that I can use it for my liquid foundation or mineral if that’s what I’m using on a particular day. And then I don’t have to go looking for another brush to apply my blush. This one sponge is all you need. I have been thinking of downsizing this year. I just have too much of everything, so this just might be the answer!! And I almost …read more

I really hated giving up the epilator. If you stayed on top of it every day, within a week or so, the job was quick and legs silky soft. *And each day took less and less time. My only problem was a BAD case of ingrown hairs. I tried Tend Skin and it really didn’t seem to help in my case, but I likely have hair with a bad case of attitude, so if it didn’t want to grow out properly, it simply didn’t. But I stumbled upon this product and began reading the reviews and it sounds awfully …read more

We seem to worry about everyone else in the family before we turn our attention to ourselves. Well, not today! Here’s a little something from Earth Therapeutics that will get those cracked heels back into shape in no time. Don’t need it?? The last time you put on a pair of socks… did you notice dried out white lines? And even worse, do your heels catch on your stockings as you put them on… just a wee little bit? And I would imagine that that dry skin on your elbows would be happy of a little attention as well! …read more

And all this time I thought that I was the only perfume bottle junkie!! Apparently that is not necessarily so. While Amy from The Scented Life is raving about the scent, (I think that I like the Plum Nectar the best) she does point out that the bottles are big- time “dresser candy”. I couldn’t have come up with a better description! Go and take a look!!
