Product of the Day

April 21st, 2008 @ 3:15 pm by Mrs. Onion

Sugar Lip Treatment by Fresh is one of my favorite skin care products. I was first introduced to Fresh from their perfume (which I wore on my wedding day). Some girls wear many different perfumes — I wear one every day, and that is Fresh Sugar.

Product Review: Jergens Natural Glow

April 16th, 2008 @ 3:50 pm by Ms. Dahlia

After all of the suggestions on my previous post, I decided to bite the bullet and go with the most heavily recommended one- Jergens. When I was shopping at my local Meijer, I stocked up on two products.

Crush On You (Yes, You!)

March 28th, 2008 @ 12:05 pm by Mrs. Jasmine

Scrub, scrub, scrub. Who knew that scrubbing one’s skin practically raw could feel so good? Recently I waxed poetic about Laura Mercier’s divine Creme Brulee scrub, but lamented the painful cost. Well today’s your lucky day– I found a cheaper, and dare I say better, alternative!

I’m super artsy at heart - I run an indie craft site, I grew up shooting and developing my own film, doing jazz and ballet, and the whole gamut of art classes. I’ve been called a Jane of all Trades… but I was also told many years ago not to make my passion my career because it’d suck the fun out of it. Hence my choice of day job. We live in Seattle but are having our wedding in Canada to be fair to all our family and friends.

Facial Treatment

March 10th, 2008 @ 4:05 pm by Mrs. Milkshake

I’ve been on almost every form of acne treatment out there… commercially available, extemporaneously compounded and otherwise… everything short of Accutane and anything acquired through an infomercial. I’ve battled it since I was at least 11 years old, and by the time I was 18 or so and halfway through pharmacy school, I decided to call it quits with the creams and pills because nothing…

Mmm… Creme Brulee

March 7th, 2008 @ 1:16 pm by Mrs. Jasmine

On a completely spontaneous trip to Saks last week (I had a doctor’s appointment and it was on the way and I had a few minutes to kill– you know how that goes!), I decided to pick up a few beauty items and take advantage of their Beauty Event Giveaway. After buying some wedding essentials (isn’t good mascara essential?), I was treated to a lovely…

Product Review: Facewash

February 14th, 2008 @ 4:31 pm by Ms. Dahlia

When the new year started, I thought that I would begin to take better care of my skin. I mean, I’ve been pretty rough on it (salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide, I’m looking at you) and it wasn’t helping my acne much at all.

(Yes, I get acne. Yes, I’ve had acne since I was about 13. Yes, I recognize that this means I’ve had it…

Let The Pampering Begin

September 4th, 2007 @ 10:29 am by Mrs. Corn

Last weekend when my mom was here I had a final make-up trial with Mary Dee Housely, my makeup artist. The main reason for going to visit her was to have a facial, an indulgence I have never experienced before. But I had also mentioned that I was hoping to make my eyes look bigger, so she suggested that she would do the eye makeup…

I've studied studio art extensively, almost majored in art history, and freelance as a web and graphics designer.

Favorite Beauty Products

August 31st, 2007 @ 3:22 pm by Mrs. Peony

I’m pretty cheap when it comes to most items, but the three things I splurge on are gadgets, handbags, and beauty products. And as a natural researcher by heart (and trade), I research and test items from all three categories to death before making any purchases, especially if a lot of money is involved. While I can go on and on about all three topics,…

This Is Not A Pretty Post

August 27th, 2007 @ 1:05 pm by Mrs. Petunia

I used to think I was blessed with good skin. I never even had any acne problems as a teenager: lucky me. I do remember, though, as a young kid, watching my mother spend ridiculous amounts of money on skin products and vast amounts of time applying them. I think now I know why.

As an adult, I have been “cursed” with several skin issues, including…

Skin, Hair, Nails Miracle Worker?

July 15th, 2007 @ 7:52 pm by Mrs. Bee

New York Magazine recently featured Vitabiotic’s Perfectil Tablets - a bestselling U.K. and European dietary supplement that’s supposed to improve your skin, hair and nails.  Now it’s finally available in the States for $16.99 at places like Duane Reade and drugstore.com.

I’ve found nothing but rave reviews online about this product so far.  Is this supplement something you’d consider trying for healthier skin, hair and nails…

I have a passion for all things "cool, cute and quirky" and I enjoy video games, reading blogs (WeddingBee, trashy celeb, consumer & political) and crafting in my spare time, if I have any!

Facial Healing

June 29th, 2007 @ 9:26 am by Mrs. Lemon

My skin is a mess. Let’s just say my face is not reacting particularly well to the stress I’ve been enduring… or the fact that my monthly visitor is in town… or the summer sweat and heat… or life in general. It’s a gosh darn mess and I needed to end the vicious cycle before it got any worse.

That’s why I escaped in the middle…

Who You Callin’ A Chicken?

April 6th, 2007 @ 12:45 pm by Mrs. Kiwi

This morning I was dutifully reading my new issue of Martha Stewart Weddings and I saw an ad for “KP Duty.” KP stands for Keratosis Pilaris. What is KP? In its nonmedical term, it’s a skin condition called “chicken skin.” That doesn’t really help, does it?

Well, from the website Help for KP, it is a skin condition in which the body makes too much keratin,…
