Manicure Monday: Haute Reverse French

Manicure Monday: Haute Reverse French

For all those I haven’t blabbed to, I’m currently spending the week in Paris! What better way to rock Manicure Monday in France than with a French manicure? You might be saying, Can this chick get over French manicures already? But I’m a huge fan of the French – I think it elongates your nails and […]

Manicure Monday: Nail Lingerie

Manicure Monday: Nail Lingerie

When I received Sation Nail Lacquer in Of Corset I’ll Call You in this month’s Ipsy bag, I had to try it immediately.  It’s described as “a romantic lavender-rose” and it’s one of my new favorite shades.  It adds the perfect pop of color, but still looks feminine and natural. Good thing Ipsy gave me a […]

A Beauty Review: Benefit’s Fine-One-One

A Beauty Review: Benefit’s Fine-One-One

Benefit’s new Fine-One-One is a sheer brightening product for cheeks and lips – and I’m currently in love with it.  You could say it was love at first swipe. And that’s not just because of the super cute name and pretty packaging – although that does tend to help.  Fine-One-One is a multi-tasking powerhouse, tiny enough to fit […]

Manicure Monday: Delete Digital Drama

Seventeen Magazine and OPI have teamed up to Delete Digital Drama and take a stand against cyberbullying by creating their new #17delete polish. Bullying is a serious issue, and cyberbullying is arguably even worse.  The Delete Digital Drama campaign seeks to spread awareness about cyberbullying and put an end to it. I think the Internet is […]

Willa: Natural Skincare For Girls, By Girls

Once upon a time, an 8 year old girl named Willa and her mom wondered why there were no skincare products appropriate for tweens.
