February BeautiControl Product Haul!

Product Haul Beauticontrol

Man, oh man! Days like today remind me why I got into the beauty biz. It's freezing out, the world has been drowned in snow and my poor defenseless skin needs some TLC. I took a bath and soaked in some of BeautiControl's Detox Bath Soak and then after shoveling snow for LITERALLY two hours-- seriously. TWO HOURS.-- Mama needs a hand treatment. I love being a BeautiControl consultant and getting amazing products delivered to my door and at a discount. Having my favorite stuff on hand is of the utmost importance to me and that's when I say, "Damn, I'm glad I'm in the … [Read more...]

That New New: Doing 2015 Differently

Welcome. No turning back.

It would not be genuine of me to publish a "New Year, New You" post anytime remotely close to the new year. I prefer to be casually and fashionably late to the party, rolling in about a week late. 2014 was a building year for me, meaning that I am not stopping there....I'm doing 2015 differently. I did a lot of work to build my beauti (will that ever get old?) business last year-- my team grew and I met and worked with amazing women but overall, I left 2014 feeling extra … [Read more...]

Travel Tips: Get Your Beauty TSA Approved!

TSA Friendly SKIN

It's news to no one that the holiday season is hella stressful. Don't get me wrong-- there is boundless fun to be had. I'm stacking party invites to the ceiling and I can hardly think of a better time of year to scoop up free fizzy drinks, tiny food and chortle merrily whilst wearing casual sequins and antlers. But the constant partying and gift buying and endless loops of the same ten songs can get you down after awhile. But nothing, and I mean nothing, gets people down more than holiday travel. It can seem as if the whole world is going exactly where you are at … [Read more...]

Facing Freedom

facing freedom

I have always, for as long as I can remember, been bothered by my face. When I was young, elementary school-aged, my chin was the problem. It was little and pointy and I always felt that it looked like an afterthought, like I had been rolling around in the womb and going through the pre-birth checklist, "Head: lips, eyes, ears, nose....oh wait...CHIN!" and then it appeared, popped on at the very last minute. I became aware of the crookedness of my teeth since age nine and soon after, stopped smiling with my mouth open until I got the ultimate suburban accessory-- … [Read more...]

#be Fashionable: MY Fashion Week

My Fashion Week, Part 1

Last month was one of the most fashionable months on the calendar. If you’ve been keeping up, the fashion elite all converged in New York, Milan, Berlin, London and Paris to watch the world’s top supermodels and the top designers premiere their collections for the upcoming season. But for some reason or another, I was not invited to participate in any of the festivities (strange, I know) so I took it upon myself to make the month of September as fashionable as possible. When the president of your company comes to town, it is mandatory that you pull out all of the … [Read more...]
