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.


David Beckham Gets His Glow On (With Highlighter)

david-beckham.jpgOur March cover girl—Victoria Beckham—isn't the only Beckham wearing makeup these days. Yesterday, her steamy husband got done up for his own magazine shoot, and while there was zero guyliner involved (thank God), Stila makeup artist and male groomer Sarah Lucero got him camera-ready with a little bit of illuminator applied with a damp Beauty Blender.

In real life, we like our men makeup-less, but if it's all in the name of getting a sexy shot, we can deal with David Beckham basking in the benefits of highlighter. In case you're in need of a great new one for yourself, check out these beauty editor picks:

Fresh Satin Luster Face Palette: "I dab the pink shade on the tops of my cheekbones; the cream one on my cupid's bow, and the white color down the center of my nose—makeup artists have told me this actually slims it."—beauty news editor Heather Muir.
Nars The Multiple in Copacabana: "I use my fingers and create a "C" shape around my eyes to make them stand out."—assistant beauty editor Kayleigh Donahue.
Philosophy The Color Of Grace Shimmering Face Powder: "I dab this pink powder under my brow bones and over the top of my cheeks to brighten my face,"—editorial assistant Sophia Panych.
