ahhhh, baby soft hands!

Wow! It sure has been a while since I've been able to post and I have lots to talk about. First and foremost with this dry winter season I couldn't think of a better place to start off then by talking about body moisturizers. I've been pleasantly surprised by a couple that I have been using so far during this winter season. The first has been Udderly Smooth Shea butter which I have been lathering on my feet at night and then covering with some socks when I go to bed. My feet have been soooo soft and smooth. It's been a great way to keep my feet feeling silky soft during a season of dryness and cold weather.

Another product that I have used forever and ever is Keri Lotion. I've have always been fond of the clean scent, lightweight texture, and the long lasting effectiveness Keri Lotions provide. Having a tendency to have dry skin, it feels good knowing as soon as the "dry skin season" begins for me there is a reliable product that I can always turn to. I'm even more excited to see the newest campaigning being done with Keri Lotion which celebrates women and art! It's so awesome and satisfying. I get that feel good feeling that comes with finding products that work well and also represent something bigger and profound. Kudos to you Keri Lotion!

He thought I was 24!!!!

I am literally weeks away from turning 30 years old and to tell you the truth….very excited about it. I’m not all caught up in feeling like I’m getting old and all that hoopla. I’ ve always thought I’ ve looked young for my age and have enjoyed growing up and maturing. I was taken aback recently when somebody I see on a regular basis due to work related duties commented on me being the same age as they were after telling me they were 24 years old….I was shocked. I was like, “honey, you’re just a baby!” and he commented back about how we were the same age and I was like, “NO……I’m hitting 30 here!” He was really surprised. Well I thought about this little fortunate exchange of words for a while. What about me make people think I am younger than what I actually am? I’ ve always been on more of the mature side. My best friends are all older than me….even by 8 or more years. So it’s not me acting immature that makes me look young. I’ ve had two kids so I don’t have that cute hip body an...

URBAN DECAY Spring 2010!!!

One thing that I can absolutely say is that my life is never, ever dull! Just when I thought I was on the path of freedom--on my way-- literally --to celebrate the completion of my teaching credential program I took a lame spill off my porch and broke my ankle! What a dork! I find out if I need surgery tomorrow.....but in the meantime, when I'm not totally doped up and loopy, I've decided to catch up on some reading, writing, and planning of birthday parties and family vacations we would like to take this year. First off, I couldn't wait to share my ever consuming love of Urban Decay Cosmetics with everyone. It just so happens that it ties in very well with the preparation of my daughter's 12th birthday party that we are planning for her--an Alice in Wonderland/Mad Hatters' birthday! Consequently, Urban Decay just released their Alice in Wonderland palette last week! I must get my fingers on this darling palette full of great shadows, 24 7 liners, and a primer p...

A "Wrinkle" in Time (pun intended)

First things first. I need to just touch on this span of time that has gone by in a wink of an eye. A span of time that has taught me some valuable life lessons along with some tough love, and thankfully moments of pure joy. A decade. An entire decade. This is the amount of time that has gone by since I first started dabbling in documenting my experiences with cosmetics, skincare, and fragrances! Whoa, geez! So much has happened over the past decade. An experience of broken bone hell (you can read all about it at: diary of my broken ankle hell ), degrees earned (SpEd teaching credential and Masters Degree), careers started (from freelance makeup artist to high school special education RSP teacher), purchased and built a new home, my awesome sassy pants daughter graduated from high school and eventually moved on to study marketing in the beauty industry at FIDM (a girl after my own heart!), a sweetheart son who recently turned eighteen and is on the verge of graduating high school...
