My Snapguide for Hanging Paper Lanterns in a Nursery

A friend turned me on to Snapguide and now I’m fully obsessed. It’s an app that allows you to post and gather mini pictorial guides on how to do just about anything from computer related things to cooking and anything in between. I made one last night as we assembled our paper lantern mobile for our nursery and it already has 366 views in less than 24 h… Read More…

Neutrogena Cleansers

If there’s one thing that I’ve learned over the years it’s that you don’t have to pay a lot for a great cleanser.

I have some preferences of course (can’t burn my eyes… Read More…

My Face Serum May or May Not Contain Foreskin; Advances in Skincare

Scanning over the ingredients of my super luxe TNS Essential Serum I see that it has Human Fibroblast Conditioned Media at the top of the list.

Everything gets lighter when the temperatures soar- makeup, the weight of clothing fabric, even fragrances. Just the weighty feeling of having too much anything on you somehow makes the temperatures just seem unbearable.
