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.

Most of you have heard of bareMinerals which is a pure mineral makeup line containing no preservatives, talc, oil, fragrance or other potential skin irritants. I have tried several of their products, and although I am not a big fan of their foundation, I absolutely love their eyeshadows. I am bored with my current ones, so yesterday, I went out and bought 2 new shadows: SNAZZY and YOU CAN NEVER BE TOO RICH BROWN. What I like about their shadows is that there is a variety of colors to choose from, the colors are natural, light to apply and have just a touch of shimmer to give a natural glow. You can also use them wet or dry. The gal at the counter told me that SNAZZY is their newest color and pretty popular--I bought the last one. So here is to perking up those little irises and celebrating another reason why it's great to be female.
