At MAC Today
I forgot how much I adore this cosmetic line. Mom's birthday is next week, and she's a Hot Tahiti freak, and she just finished the last tube in her stash (no MAC stores where she lives). I went to the Arizona Biltmore to pick up a tube for her. N

allen allen sale + more
Hi! Allen Allen clearance sale was today in Irvine. I ran down there with the kid to see what was there. Less than what I expected for sure. Though the space was really big and definitely sufficient parking, it was racks and racks of clothes by col

Uggs and calves
I did a google and I've searched probably about every site that sells Uggs, but couldn't find any information about calf widths. Any ladies out their "blessed" with muscular calves have luck with Uggs? I have no idea how these fit, (none in my area) b

What did you buy for the summer, but haven't worn yet?
I bought a few things this year that I thought I'd get a lot of wear out of, but so far have sat in my closet unused - these include two sleeveless sweaters, and an outfit I bought in case we ever go out dancing. I'm going to make an effort to try and

Anyone been to the South Pacific?
I'm planning a vacation to the South Pacific for my 30th birthday in the first week of December. I haven't really narrowed down yet where I want to go, so I'd like recommendations from anyone that's been there. I've been thinking about Moorea, becaus

Beauty Know-it all
I was in Blue Mercury the other day to look at some fragrances etc. The S.A. would stop me at every display as I browsed by and would try to recommend something. A lot of products and lines she suggested was stuff I had already sampled, and/or had al

Thermage again
Went to the dermatologist for a consultation about Thermage today. Very interesting and very tempting. She said that a third of her patients are ecstatic with the results, a third are pleased and a third say "no big deal". I guess there is no way to k

Rave: RoC Soya Unify Night Cream
I had posted about this cream last winter. At the time, I determined that it wasn't moisturizing enough (i.e. Didn't get rid of the flakiness around my mouth) and may have caused my little whitehead breakouts. For whatever reason, I decided to give t

Review: Gross MD Skincare Alpha Beta Daily Face Peel
Skincare review time! ;) As many of you are aware, I've been battling flaking skin, especially at the sides of my mouth. I tried a number of scrubs/exfoliators and moisturizing masks, to no avail. Clinique Total Turnaround cream worked for a few d

Ring size research
Hello all, I do not normally frequent here, so hopefully I am asking this question to the proper group of people. First, I want to state up front that I am not interested in selling anything here. I am merely interested in conducting a bit of rese
