So, I originally had this product review slated for the new Sevin Nyne Tanning Mist created by Lindsay Lohan and her personal airbrush tanning guru. But unfortunately, that experiment was a complete bust. As directed, I shook the bottle and sprayed a line down my freshly exfoliated leg. The Sephora consultant who sold me on […]

LATHER Up in Support of Sweet Dreams
I’ve been dieting for exactly two weeks now and I’ll admit, I miss cheese. I miss butter. I so want to pound a mound of Fettuccine Alfredo and sop up the sauce with a hunk of crusty Italian bread. I … am … starving. But my posterior has once again managed to push its way […]

How to Create Summer's Hot Hair Trend: The Top Knot
Fashionista Cynthia Rowley turned to Rodney Cutler of Cutler/Redken Salon to create a look to complement her 2011 resort lineup. To pump up the fun in her collection of denim and chiffon patchwork, bold geometric prints and bright metallic fabrics, Cutler fashioned a texturized top knot.

Yipee. It’s back. Summer. Oh how we’ve missed you (sorta). No matter what part of the country you idle away your summer vacays, one thing we know for sure is that it’s time to lighten up.

3floz.com: A Jet-Setting Beauty Junkie's Best Friend
I read about this website in of all places, an airplane. My feet were crammed under my seat with barely room to move because I sure as heck wasn’t going to fork up more dough to check in my bag. And I’ll do anything to avoid the post-landing rush to get into the overhead compartments. […]
Frugal Beauty Find: Bodycology Rich & Creamy Body Wash
Go ahead, slather. At just under $5, the new Bodycology Rich & Creamy Body Wash gives your license to go overboard. I gave the Skin Softening formulation a try because the bottle is pink and well, I think we all know by now that it’s a favorite color around the spa girl offices. In fact, […]
The Girl’s Guide to Biking and Baking: LUCA Sunscreen Review
I wouldn’t qualify myself as athletic. Yet every once in a while, I get a hankering to drain myself of every stitch of pent-up energy with a mad dash on my bike through the desert. This time, I had a mission. Well, two really. One was to ride fast enough that should I come across […]

From sweet to spicy, here's the pick of […]
Raising the Bar: Laszlo Blue Firmarine Treatment Bar
Life is a crazy wild ride, isn’t it? Take yesterday for example. In between deadlines and emergency laundry (spa boy was out of clean underwear, gasp!), I hustled into the local auto spa for an oil change. When the mechanic lifted my hood, not only did we discover a rodent apartment complex but sadly, one […]
