This blog is dedicated to my husband who sees my imperfections and doesn't mention them.

I love trying new beauty products. Place me in a Sephora or Ulta store and I feel I am in paradise. For hours I can pleasantly entertain myself looking at the plethora of different shampoos, facial washes, makeup and perfumes, envisioning myself as a size 0 with glowing clear skin, no split ends, and being stopped by every man in America asking “What’s that scent you are wearing? (Ok, maybe not EVERY man)

One of my downfalls , as my mother will readily tell you, is that I am a sucker for cool packaging and intriguing ingredients. That inclination has resulted in trying hundreds of different products over the years – good and bad. Some products I have used ever since I was in college and I would rather exit the house with no makeup and hairy arm pits then see my fav end up on the proverbial chopping block. Others I have readily discarded vowing never again to be duped by flowery ingredients which deliver zero results.

Because of my “beauty product love”, I probably have more knowledge roaming around in my head than Wikipedia. So I decided to start this blog to share my adventures with you on the quest for beauty, giving my recommendations and warnings so your money can be well spent. The subject matter may be a tad vain, but ultimately every woman has an innate desire to look and feel her best and there is nothing wrong with that. Happy reading, and if you don’t come for my daily blabberings at least drop by for my contest giveaways that I hope to do every other month.


Should There Be Tanning Beds in Prison?

tanning-beds-in-prison.jpgIn the olden days, being sent to prison was synonymous with never seeing the light of day...ever again. Well not anymore, thanks to the wonder of tanning beds! Sergei Telyatnikov, head of notorious Russian prison Butyrka, told a radio station that he will soon install tanning beds in the jail to improve the health of its inmates.The sunbeds, which Telyatnikov said would be used "for medical purposes," will be installed by the end of the year, the state-run RIA news agency said. And that's not all. Butyrka innates can expect spa facilities (such a mud baths) in the future. Now, it's worth noting that this prison has been home to a number of people who didn't deserve to be in jail in the first place, such as Soviet-era writers Alexander Solzhenitsyn and Isaak Babel. Still, with other stories in the news—like the Massachusetts transgender prisoner who was the recipient of makeup and electrolysis treatments for years—it seems like being bad never looked so good.

So what do you think? Do you think its a crime to give prisoners tanning beds, or other beauty treatments? ?
