I promised you all (in yesterday’s blog entry) that today I’d share with you a few of my favorite tinted sunscreens. They are all amazing in terms of color, protection and hydration and even have anti-aging nourishing properties as well. These are the ultimate multi-tasking skin and sun care products...

My favorite skin care brands that I’ve used (or still use) personally are typically ones that I used professionally in the past. This is usually because I was thoroughly trained via classes and seminars put on by the brands themselves, attended aesthetic conferences with workshops, or simply taught by...

If only I had a nickel for everytime somebody has asked me what's the best thing they can do to get rid of and prevent razor bumps or ingrown hairs...I'd be rich!! Well, I was never quite lucky enough to collect the nickels each time I was asked but I am thrilled to report that I do now have...

I was so excited a few years back when Prevage was coming out.

The problem with that question is oftentimes there are too many variables to answer with just one brand. What I’ve found is that usually the person asking the question...

I told you I would reveal my incredible Elizabeth Arden regimen and here it is... Cleanser: Elizabeth Arden 2 in 1 Cleanser from the Basic Skincare Line . For those of you who know me…I like to find the best cleanser that doesn’t dry out my already dry skin and I refuse to pay a ridiculous amount of...

So today I said I’d chat about the individual lines within the superb Elizabeth Arden brand. I also mentioned I’d share with you my very own Elizabeth Arden products I use in my all inclusive Elizabeth Arden regimen!
