Origins VitaZing SPF 15 Energy-boosting Moisturizer Here in New York, it’s hot outside!

Skinceuticals - Clarifying Clay Masque To me, there is (almost) nothing more embarrassing than going on a first date, job interview, dinner party, speech etc. and realizing the night before, or even the morning of that you have a huge zit on your face! Wouldn’t you agree? I mean, one of the first things people notice about you is your face.... [+]

Clinique Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Color Balm in colors “02 Whole Lotta Honey” and “04 Mega Melon” Okay..so..for starters, the name is confusing. You’re probably wondering, what the hell is it? Is it a balm? A lip color? Chubby stick? The correct answer would be, all of the above! My amazing relationship with these lovely creatures started when I was... [+]

Laura Mercier Creme Smooth Foundation – “Warm Ivory” I love me a good, full-coverage foundation. I sometimes break out and have the occasional redness.
