About Me:

I love trying new beauty products. I am very conscious about my skin, moisturizers,cleansers,pore refiners and everything in-between. I have super curly hair and its about waist length, shampoo's and conditioners are always next in line. I've just started using Mixed chicks shampoo and conditioner and I love it! After about 4 weeks of using Mixed Chicks my hair began to really look healthy and vibrant. I am very pleased with this shampoo & conditioner!!*UPDATE* Its now been 2 months since I began using the Mixed Chicks hair care line, My hair is looking better then it ever has. I get compliments daily...from men and women. The men are happy to hear that there is a formula for them! Rock on Gentlemen. What I really want to tell everyone is thsat this product line is great, it works and it smells good. gone are the dry frizzy hair days...they are history, but only if your using Mixed chicks. I have contact with them on several occasions, they're so nice and they want to get the word out, Mixed Chicks is gonna RULE 2010...I am very concerned with keeping the wrinkles at bay and keeping my skin healthy. I really like Oil of Olay, its my Drugstore Deal. I am a Bare Minerals (entire product line) user, its great! But on days when my skin is feeling on the "dry-side" and I don't want to use the minerals I've begun using Hourglass Illusion tinted moisturizer in light Beige. Its FPS 15 and the amazing thing is after I apply it I swear it takes 10 yrs. off my face. It fills in those tiny lines and lifts the areas that are a little droopy! I am loving this product!! Its just enough tint, makes me look like I've been up to something, heehee
I love megs make-up and all the helpful~insightful reviews,this web site is a womans best friend!

My Beauty Secret:

my best beauty tip is drink tons of water, no smoking and keep alcohol consuption to a minimum.
My next biggest beauty secret is....Megs Make-up !! Everyday I read something wonderful...it might be a beauty tip, it might be a product for wrinkles or a skin care secret met to be shared with everyone...I tell all my friends about this site and I check in several times a day just to make sure I don't miss anything. I have read so much about Urban Decay eyeshadow primer, I bought some from Sephora and OMG I love this stuff! At the end of the work day, 5 pm, my eyeshadow looks as good as it did at 8 am!

My Routine:

Every 3-4 months or so my routine changes, summer routine is different from my fall routine as is my winter routine different from my spring routine. Since we are heading into winter first and foremost is moisturizing. I use my Oil of Olay night creme as a daily moisturizer. Instead of using my Bare Minerals I've switched to loreal smart shade smart balance and I use a little Oil of Olay moisturizer to blend down my neck and decolate (sp?) Another product that I use is called Hourglass Illusion tinted moisturizer. Its SPF 15 and it firms and tightens. I swear when I use it I look 10 yrs. younger! Its worth the $$
I have stopped using false eyelashes and have begun using Bag gal lashes by Benefit. I love the big wonderful brush applicator and the mascara really adds volume and legth to my eyelashes...Love It!! I use a little eyeliner by Bare Minerals called Buxom then a hint of blush followed by my all time favorite lipstick by Poppy King, I have about 6-7 different colors and formulas, a few from the Saint line and a few from the sinners line and one tube of a translucent red that adds just enough color to be really sexy. I don't have any qualms about spending a few more bucks on a product that gives me the results I am looking for.

My Horror Story:

My most mortifying make-up monent was when I was about 14 yrs. old and I begged my mother to let me get my hair chemicaly straightened, she finally relented and it looked TERRIABLE ! I thought I would just die! but in the 70's straight hair was "in", As I got older I learned how to style my hair what products worked best. Now its all good.

My Celebrity Look-a-like:

I have been told Amy Irving is my celeb. look alike, I love her hair! but I used to think I looked like Phylis Diller....OMG...LOL

Fav Product #1

I can't live without this product...

Murad Skin Care Products and Oil of Olay

I have been using several different facial cleanser,toner,moisturizers over the past year, my most recent that I've been using and really really like is by Murad, Meg sent me this moisturizer and facial serum when I cashed in my beauty points! Thanks again Meg!! If Meg had not sent me these 2 products I am probly never would have tried them. I use Oil of Olay dual action cleanser and pore scrub, it gets the grime of the day off my face and its gentle too. Then I give my face a good dose of Murad. The moisturizer is rich and thick and I love that in a moisturizer. I am happy to say that when I look in the mirror I am pleased with the image looking back at me!

Fav Product #3

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

Lipstick addict...thats me!

Yes....yes its true, I am crazy about lipsticks. I have so many I sometimes feel foolish, LOLMy favorite is Poppy King, I really like the "Saint" line. There is "Saint" and "Sinners"Its smooth, last almost all day (depends on what I've been eating) the colors are rich and they're matte that's what I like the most. My second fav lipsick is Urban Decay (thanks meg) and the Urban Decay lipliner (thanks again meg). The Urban Decay lipstick last a very long time, I apply in the am right before I leave for work and I don't need a touch up until after the noon hour! I use the urban decay lipstick with the urban decay lip liner. I love the lip liner because it keeps my lipsticks from running into those fine lines around my lips!
