I usually don’t make New Year’s resolutions, but I decided in January that this would be the year that I would take better care of my skin and get regular facials. I have always left facials red faced, blotchy and inflamed, and feeling pressured by product pushing.…

This is not the post I planned for tomorrow, but I had to stop the presses this evening because I just experienced a life changer. I want to preface this by saying that this is not a sponsored post, I am simply sold on this on demand beauty service you need in your life right now.…
Today is National Hairstylist Appreciation day, and I could not be more excited to share mine with you (but just not on Thursdays every 6 weeks at 4) because I truly believe she is the best hairstylist in Manhattan, and quite possibly the world. A good hairstylist is life changing, and I am humbled to say that’s exactly what happened to me when I met Randi Deverson in 2010. We could also call her The Artist Formerly Known As Chloe.…

They say April showers bring May flowers, and apparently March brings a magical beauty trend: unicorns. Yes, unicorns are trending in spring color palettes, themes, and even skincare products. I love the whimsical trend and cannot wait to get my hands on this and pretty much all of these. Here are the 10 unicorn beauty products for spring that I’m dying to try:…
Happy National Fragrance Day! I’m celebrating with a little spritz of this and probably some of this later on so I can pretend it’s summer or at least spring and I’m not snowed in with my two boys. Also, I thought I’d share my top five with you all. Here are my 5 favorite fragrances right now:…
If I’m being honest, there are few new mascaras that are actually worth a second swipe. This review is about one that is actually worth that and a bag of chips or at least worth a spot in your spring makeup bag. Here is my bareMinerals Lash Domination Volumizing Mascara Review:…
I have a confession to make: this post was almost entitled “the one thing I stole from my man’s beauty bag” or something along those lines. I first tried my husband’s drugstore facewash back in the day when we were dating and I ran out of my fancy stuff. Fast forward a decade and some change, I’m still using it first thing in the morning, and last wash at night. Oh, and it’s under $5.…
My very first hair wand was gifted to me by a friend almost a decade ago. Clipless curling irons were new to the market, and she was working for Amika, which was little known in the US. The first few times I tried it, I burned myself so many times I gave up. Soon after, it became an indispensable tool in my hair care kit.…
A had been shunning shadow in favor of a minimal eye and a power lip color when this YSL Couture Palette c/o YSL arrived on my doorstep. It floated around my makeup bag for a while before I tried it once, then proceeded to wear it at least 4 times a week. I’ve never been a violet lover, but the 05 colors make my dark brown eyes pop and lend a warmth to my winter complexion. The pigments are so…
