Going Green from Fingers to Toes

If you're bored with the same old nail color...you are in luck, a new trend has been forecasted:  green nail polish is back in!  And I'm not talking neon, or bright green, but rather dark green.  Very dark.  Almost black looking.  I have a bad habit of hardly ever updating the colors in … [Read more...]

Celebrity Beauty Successes, and then Some

Is it just me or are these two wearing the same shade of fuchsia lip gloss?  It sure looks that way. I guess this is an okay color for big smiling mouths.  Based on my observations though, Hip/Hop R&B singer Ciara looks like a young Whitney Houston here, and Kim Kardashian looks like the one … [Read more...]

Let it Air Dry: Wet Hair Never Looked So Good

Curly haired girls should understand where I'm coming from on this one: how annoying is it to leave the house with wet hair?  I've done it hundreds, millions of times!  As a curly girl myself, we have been instructed to let the tendrils air dry, otherwise deal with frizz.  But this can take … [Read more...]

Another Lotion? This Bottle is One Worth Picking Up

Amber Rose: She’s Like a Rainbow

She kind of reminds me of a porn star, minus the big hair, it must be her name...no … [Read more...]

Charlie’s Angel: Remembering A Beauty Legend

Today I shall pay homage to the ULTIMATE 1970's beauty queen: Farrah Fawcett.  Her passing shocked millions, her battle with cancer had been long and hard for the last few years.  Although I remember hearing that Fawcett's run on the show that really made her famous, "Charlie's Angels" lasted only … [Read more...]

To Shave or Not to Shave?

And I'm not talking about your legs.  R&B singer Cassie looks super HOT with her half shaved head!  I recently saw pictures of it and thought it was brilliant.  Who?  Why?...I'm not too familiar with Cassie either, meaning that I only know of one of her songs--a good little club jam that … [Read more...]

Even though I really don't care for her...today I will show you how to get those luscious lips of Angelina Jolie's, or at least make my best effort to.
