I can't live without this product...

Great moisturizer, nice sheen (not stripper glitter), and it DOES give you a natural gradual color. Oh, and they improved the smell. I use the medium tone.
I like "Jergen's Tinted Moisturizer" (Others who like it too...none yet)

I wouldn't die, but I would suffer greatly without this product...

bare escentials powder

I LOVE it and I actually do sleep in it (I hate to admit)and it's amazing. I actually tried an alternative brand and I could tell the difference on my skin. This is a growing trend (mineral make up) but Bare Escentials has been at it for decades and I swear it's the best. Also, I love that it is made in San Francisco and I'm not contributing to the carbon footprint of transporting the product far. :)

Without this product, I'd have to start drinking at noon ;-) ...

Kinerase Moisturizer

I actually never used this until I was given it in a gift bag from an event. $150 product to try for free! Yes, the only way I would have probably splurged on something that pricey that I had never tried. It is pretty amazing, I can feel/see the difference. I believe that it is best if you are over 25 or concerned about the aging of your skin. But I believe, you can never start too early. ;)

My secret beauty recipe and best makeup tips...

Best Hair Tip: Do NOT wash every day, unless you've really oily hair, there is nothing like a lil' natural dirt for volume (seriously) and it preserves your hair's natural moisture. PLUS, you are saving money (hair care products last much longer), time (my hair washing adds 15 minutes to shower time), AND it saves lots and lots of water. We can never consider the environment enough! Best Skin Tip: Gentle exfoliation & Moisturize & I can not stress enough SUNSCREEN, ladies! At least 15 SPF everyday! I wear 30 SPF everyday. Best eye makeup tip: For those of you who haven't discovered the eye lash curler...don't be afraid, use it properly (for less lash breakage) and you'll love it! INSIDE TIP: for my fellow lovely Asian ladies, use waterproof mascara to maintain the curl for our stubbornly straight lashes. Seriously, you'll never turn back. And after many, many trials and lots of money, I swear by Maybelline Waterproof XXL Volume+Length mascara. Best General Make Up Tip: Focus on one area and balance with the rest being "accents" I.E. bright lips - light eyes, smoky lids - light lips. And the right powder makes all the difference. I LOVE bare escentials powder products (note: no go on their lip liner/lip gloss) Fav Lip Liner: MAC Fav Eye Liner: Revlon ColorStay (swear by it, get every color!) Best Nail Tip: Upkeep, natural never looks tacky, but if painted keep it maintained. Chipped polish...tacky! I love just having my nails manicured and buffed and spring for fun polish on my toes (lasts much longer) And last but not least, Make up your face but ignore your Body??? No-No!! Best body tip: You ARE what you eat. Treat your body like a temple, be conscientious of what you are eating at all times (even if it is a de-lish jelly filled donut, know it and own it) Drink lots of water. Flush those toxins!

How long does it really take me to get ready? What's my beauty routine?

Out the door for work: 30 minutes (if outfit has been decided upon) seriously. Out the door for putzing around: 10 minutes, brush my teeth, wash face, & moisturize. Out the door for play date: 45 minutes, total glammed out.

While Meg's mom used to give her at-home perms, my most mortifying makeup moment is...

Monster 80's Brooke Shields eyebrows. yikes! what was I thinking and there is picture proof of that disaster.

My celebrity doppelganger (or so I'm told sometimes) is...

Pretty much any Asian chick that someone feels the need to reference. I frankly don't take any of them seriously, whether good or bad. However: best - Joan Chen (beautiful) worst - Margaret Cho (yikes! shoot me, I Hope they were joking) most ridiculous - Pamela Lee Anderson (I wish I was joking)

  • sweetassgal says, Yay! I am SO happy to have you here...not only are the ladies FAB but the advice is priceless. I've learned so much and really improved my skin as a result of the research and tips. You'll love it! I write Green Chi Tuesday's which is the natural and organics review. RIGHT up my alley! I love it. When you log on to the homepage the article of the day is the first you'll see. If you want to read my past articles just scroll down through the days until you get to Tuesday from the week before. I think you can go back a few. Glad to have you here. BTW...been DYING to try Kinerase but just can't swallow the cost. Especially since I'm now getting so much great product for free to review. I'm in heaven!
