Yippee! We’ve discovered yet another beauty site we love. Hard to believe but it’s true. BeautySage is a new website that sells only the cream of the top beauty brands that actually deliver on their promises. If a product claims to smooth wrinkles, well, it better, or it gets removed from the site. The chemistry […]

British Beauty Brands Invasion
The British are coming! Or at least the positively addictive drama, Downton Abby, is coming to a PBS station near you on Jan. 6. And along with their tea, crumpets and spotted dick (what is that stuff anyway?), the U.K. has also brought a bevy of cult beauty faves along with them to spoil us stateside. […]
Yuzen: Your Monthly Box of Zen
Let the battle of the beauty boxes begin! Nothing like a little friendly competition to bring out the best in the growing world of product sampling programs.

Pretty Green: Earth Day Beauty Finds
With Earth Day right around the corner, I figured it was a good time to round up my favorite green beauty products. As AZ Spa Girls’ resident Green Goddess (okay, I gave that name to myself but they agree that it suites me), it’s my personal duty to inform of you of the latest trends […]

Beauty Foods: Good for Your Soul and Your Skin

WEN Cleansing Conditioner in Winter Vanilla Mint: A Hair DO!
Dry, brittle hair is the bane of every Spa Girl’s existence. Living in Arizona’s harsh, dry desert climate has us in a constant stay of “hairapy,” which, if you didn’t know, is the act of rehabbing one’s hair. Between hot oil treatments, egg whites and most recently beer (don’t judge), my kitchen needs a break. Thankfully, […]
