A Day of Beauty Poll

Please look to the right sidebar for a new poll!
The question is: How long does it take you to get ready for a really special event? Think an elegant party or even a really special first date. Something like a wedding could be stretched out over a week, so skip that […]

Now We’re Talking Primers!

Top 5 Things I Hate About Cosmetics Sales Counters

This is one reason I am so very fond of the internet - very easy to find the info you need without having to wade through all of that salesperson baloney. :)
