Giveaway Alert! (closed)

A little while ago, I won a $25 gift certificate from Crystal for Apothica er, no, make that Apothica, SkinCareRx and SkinBotanica.com. 3 different sites, all one shopping cart. Very cool site where I can buy hard to find things and don't have to order from several places. You can buy the standards like Clarisonic, Bobbi Brown, or NARS, but also harder to find things like my favorite moisturizer,

Perricone Winner!

To keep things nice and fair, I didn't pick the winner for the Perricone MD High Potency Eye Lift. Twitter did. Everybody's names went on a list, those that had multiple entries for tweeting about the giveaway or posting on our Facebook Fan Page had their names listed again after everyone's first entry was listed. Then I asked on Twitter for anyone who wasn't entered in the drawing to give me a

My Peepers Love This: High Potency Eye Lift

There are two things about my body that I really, really don't like. Everything below my waist (if I could walk behind a counter for the rest of my life, I'd be one happy camper), and my eyes that are in serious need of plastic surgery. I've always struggled with hooded eyelids, but after several anniversaries of my 21st birthday, I've learned to live with those. I just drool at the gals who can

Save The Date: Aug 27 Birthday Bash!

Go figure this: I'm not a fan of celebrating my birthday with parties and such - take me out to dinner so that I don't have to cook, and I'm happy. But every year, I do something special on the site to celebrate. As you know, my birthday is coming up next Thursday, when I'll be having one of those birthdays that end in "0" - and a number that when doubled, I'm pretty much assured of not being

Jami is always sleuthing and posting about freebies she's found, great deals, and products that are readily available to everyone. And one of the few bloggers that isn't a

I'm Baaaack!

I had a fantastic time in Vegas at Cosmoprof. My feet were killing me from all the walking, and the heat hit as high as 122 degrees while driving there, but it was well worth it! I actually got to meet the owners of some of the companies I use as vendors (waves hi to Karen), scouted out some potential new items (I'm testing them now), and finally got to meet some of my favorite beauty bloggers (

The "To Do" List

Is your "to do" list a mile long like mine is? And I bet you're like me, and get to maybe 1/10th of that list each day. Subconsciously, that list is divided into parts: absolutely, positively gotta do it no matter what (like pay your real estate taxes before midnight the day they're due), really "need" to do, and "would like to do's". Somehow, I never get to that last type unless I'm looking for

These palettes are made of very expensive ingredients, and are extremely time consuming to make - each edition takes upwards of 30 hours to make. I've always tried to retail them for a little as possible while still making
