Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWith the new year, comes a fresh start and a chance to throw caution to the wind and take a chance on something new. This year I am starting with beauty. While I'm totally not afraid of brights and bold red matte lip is my go-to, there is one lip trend that sends a shiver up my spine: the metallic shimmer lip. Just the name conjures up images in my head of 90's girl bands and frosted candy...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI've been known to try some crazy things in hopes of finding that one miracle beauty product. In fact, I've slathered everything from milk to Preparation H on my never ending quest for beautiful skin. I'm not alone, either. Ever since that first woman applied pigment to her cheeks and thought: 'Damn gurl, you look goooodddd", we've been trying out lotions, potions and more to look our very best...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basSo, you've woken up with a wicked bad hangover and it's not just your head that's suffering. Your skin is not happy with that extra cocktail, either. Just like alcohol causes your body to be dehydrated (and that explains the pounding headache), it also causes parched skin. Or perhaps you're like me and while you love sugar in liquid form, your guilty pleasure is a mountain of cookies, hot cocoa...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIt always amazes me how much of a difference mascara makes. Eyes go from ho-hum to BAM! In your face! Having majuurr lashes creates larger eyes and puts the focus on those peepers. If only we woke up in the morning with mascara-like lashes all ready to go, amirite?! Well, actually, there may be something to it. While we've tried lash extensions and totally loved the results, extensions are not...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWe've all done things we regret, whether it's taking that extra drink last new years eve or rocking that (now cringe-inducing) dress that you just HAD to have. Gurl, we all make bad choices. When the year is up, it's time to reflect on all those bad choices and this week, we're talking about bad fashion choices in particular. Perhaps you were not the culprit but you just HAVE to bring up the...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIn my battle against winter skin, my main weapon is a good mask. Currently, I'm all about Skinceuticals Hydrating B5 Mask. They're concentrated, hydration goodness with ingredients that quickly penetrate and absorb into the skin which means that I see immediate results but those results stay with me throughout the day. So, of course, I'm always open to hearing about new products and...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basYou've been asked to a fabulous holiday party but it's a potluck and though you can chow down with the best of them, you're no Nigella when it comes to the kitchen. What's a gal with little to no culinary skills to do? Easy peasy - no cook dishes and appetizers, of course!
They're so simple to put together, all you need to do is buy the ingredients and assemble (you can even do it at the...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basNew Years Eve is always kind of a let down. I hype it up so much and when it comes down to it, it's always lame. Plus, going out is going to cost you $$$. Heading to a club? Be prepared to pay cover charge and for drinks worth a quarter their price. Your best bet is have a few close gals and guys over, spruce up the place to get the atmosphere right, pump the jams and get down to having fun.
