Rimmel’s new spring collection offers up one of the best lipglosses I’ve tried in a long time: Moisture Renew with SPF 15. It combines all the things I love in many other glosses I’ve tried, into one very affordable tube ($6.50/ea). This lipgloss offers moisutre, SPF 15, great sheer color with just a hint of [...]

Sante Natural Cosmetics, part II: Lips!

A few days I reviewed the great eye makeup products that I tried out from Sante, a natural, mineral cosmetics company from Germany. The brand is already very popular in Europe, but has only recently come over stateside. Free of synthetic colors, fragrance, preservatives and oils, the products are also gluten free. From the lip [...]

Protect Your Kisser: Smart Girls Who Surf SPF 15 Lip Balms

Although sun protection is important year round, we tend to spend more time outside as the weather gets nicer. All this time outside calls for amped-up efforts with our SPF products. I like to stash lip balm with sun protection just about everywhere so I’m never more than an arms length away from moisturizing protection: [...]

I’d never heard of Simple skincare prior to the little bottle arriving in my mailbox last week. However, Simple is apparently wildly popular in the UK and enjoyed by the likes of pop stars Alicia Keys and Mel C. The price point is rockin’ and all of their products are perfume and color-free, so great [...]

A Hit & A Miss: Physicians Formula Organic Wear Tinted Moisturizer and Mascara

Popping into the drugstore for diapers the other day, I became distracted by the makeup section. I typically buy my makeup from the department store because it’s best to try it on first, but it’s always fun to check out the newest offerings at the drugstore (and the prices can’t be beat). I was intrigued [...]

The first 2 days of my product detox challenge were pretty easy. I started on the weekend to give myself a chance to ease into things. I did pretty good, except one minor slip up – without even thinking about it, I put on deodorant. It’s such a part of my morning routine, that I [...]

The Only Eye Cream You’ll Ever Need? Rodial Glamtox Eye Light SPF 15

Every time a press release for Rodial’s Glamtox Eye Light SPF 15 eye cream came across my inbox, I’d casually ask my PR rep for a sample to try. She was always out! I knew she wasn’t blowing me off though. Every time I searched for Rodial products, Beauty.com was sold out (as of press [...]

Protect Your Skin With Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion

During the cold dry months of the year, I reach for thick, heavy creams to help fight dry skin. My husband also suffers from dry skin, but he hates applying lotion. Something about the greasiness gives him the heebie-jeebies. He’d rather suffer (and complain) through dry, cracked elbows and itchy skin than apply lotion. So [...]

I like to spend lots of time outside during the summer. Although I’m pretty good about sun protection, I often loose track of time and forget to reapply. I’ve started using little tricks to make sure my skin is protected, like using products that already contain an SPF, so I don’t have to remember to [...]

Lisa Hoffman has created some ingenious, single use, portable packettes of her popular spa beauty products. She has taken a line of products, put a dose of each one in a little plastic ampule and slipped the whole line into a ziplock plastic pouch. Can you say airplane travel friendly?
