I think it's time for me to color my hair again. It's been about two and a half months -- and while you can't see my roots or anything, I'm getting antsy. I'm starting to see the appeal of changing it up on a monthly basis. Which begs the question: How often do you color your hair? Let me know in the comments! Read Full Story

As Thanksgiving approaches, it leads me to think about the beauty products I’ve been thankful for this year. In no particular order, they include:SK-II Signs Eye Cream: Singlehandedly banished by wrinkles and dark circles, causing me to look a good five or six years younger. THANK YOU.Orlane Paris Absolute Radiance Lightbox: Perfect for those days where my parched, dehydrated skin is in need of a little something extra.Diptyque Violette Scented Candle: The best indulgence I’ve ever made.

You know those days when you just need a little something special in the morning? Well, I've found a new indulgence for the shower that simply cannot be paralleled. Every time I open my bottle of Jo Malone Lime Basil & Mandarin Shower Gel, I feel instantly revived and ready to take on the day.This scent is an interesting combination of zest and spice. Notes of lime and mandarin combine with peppery basil and white thyme, weaving together to create a luxuriously rich and fragrant aroma. It... Read Full Story

I love to layer. I don't seem to ever be happy with just lipstick or just lipgloss. I like to wear two or three at all times! How about you? Do you like to layer lipsticks and lipglosses? Or do you just wear one at a time? Let me know in the comments! Read Full Story

Purple lipstick? I've gotta go with a nay here. Christian Serratos is such a pretty girl, but I'm just not digging her choice of lipstick at the Los Angeles premiere of New Moon last week.What do you think? Is this look a yay or a nay? Let me know in the comments! Read Full Story

It's rare for me to find a moisturizer that doesn't make my hands feel slick and slippery. Too many of them claim to sink into the skin immediately but leave behind a greasy sheen -- not so great when I need to use my hands for typing all day! Not so with Clinique Deep Comfort Hand and Cuticle Cream.This lotion sinks into the skin relatively quickly, leaving behind nothing but super-soft and smooth skin with no hint of grimy residue. Only a dime-sized amount is enough to cover both hands and ... Read Full Story

Bravo, Jennie Garth. You have singlehandedly brought me my favorite hairstyle of the year. I am in love with the futuristic helmet-like 'do she sported at the Los Angeles premiere of The Twilight Saga: New Moon this week ... because, peeking out from the sides, there were two intricate French braids. I love how innovative and fun this hairstyle is -- such a new and inventive way to spice up the bob. She's shown here with none other than her hubby Peter Facinelli, who of course plays Dr. Carli...

I have what some might consider an unhealthy obsession with candles. Gals like my friend Felicia understand it at once -- but some people may balk at the sight of 40+ candles lining the windowsills of my bathroom, bedroom, living room, kitchen ... you get the point. But when I got the opportunity to test out a few of Votivo's new Color Collection, I simply jumped. First up: Greenpepper Coriander.Each of the candles in this collection is inspired by the color that it represents. Greenpepper Co... Read Full Story

If you're like me, you like a lot of lashes. When I apply mascara, I like my lashes to be so long and full that they hit my glasses. This usually requires at least two coats -- three if I'm going for extra drama. So my beauty question of the day is this: How many coats of mascara do you apply every day?
