My Beauty Secret: 

My HG (holy grail) product is a cleanser by la roche posay... their purifying cleaser, it's just amazing how well it works (glycolic acid) and how clean, smooth, soft my dry skin feels afterwards. I'm also currently crushing on ANYTHING by weleda (their rose night cream is rich and rewarding and i've been using it every DAY). Oh & my other secret to looking & feeling great... lie about your age!! (yes i did, and no i'm not) One more tip/trick... when brushing your teeth, use a lil baking soda... it helps whiten your teeth better than any strip or paste... it tastes like @ss BUT... if you use your tasty toothpaste on a dampened toothbrush & then put a lil baking soda in your palm (or on a tissue or i use the plastic cap from the container) and smoosh your bristles into it, and brush.... you really will be soooo surprised what a difference it makes... a couple of nites a week... you'll be blinding people w/your pearly whites!!!! also... I have to mention... that as a psoriasis suffered (on my scalp) I've learned that THE BEST TREATMENT HANDS DOWN... is organic neem oil (you can find it online) rubbed into the irritated areas (i use a small hairspray bottle to apply directly to the scalp) and left on OVERNIGHT... shampoo w/a tea tree shampoo (i like giovanni triple treat or jingles herbal rejuvanating shampoos) And if you have a RRRREALLY bad flair up.... VICKS VAPOR RUB (no joke, it's amazing how soothing and effective it is)... good luck... (i've also tried every other remedy under the sun... btw a lil sun's good for psoriasis... so any questions, please feel free to message me)!!!!

My Routine: 

In the morning, getting ready for work, I'm a bare bones kinda gal... 1/2 hour from start to finish. moisturizer (weleda rose night cream...yes for day) mascara (maybelline lash discovery black) and cover up (nars balanced makeup in deauville OR gerda spellman creme foundation in truffle...LOVE this stuff) and a lil mac carbon eyeshadow applied as a liner wet....required, anything more is optional (and usually applied once i get to the office). If we're going out (which doesnt happen often i'll admit, we've gotta 7 month old) I'll take an hour... unless i decide to curl my hair... then i shower like two hours earlier, roll up the locks & let it all set... the downtime for setting purpose i wouldnt count (otherwise i would sound sooooo high maintenance w/a good three hours of prep time)!!! haha

My Horror Story: 

My over zealousness w/a tweezer in the 90's... I look startled and surprised in every photo from then... and my sparse eyebrows now need to be filled in (i usually use eyeshadow for this but have been known to dye them every so often).

My Celebrity Look-a-like: 

I often get Angelina Jolie (love when that happens) and now... Miley Cyrus (which I havta admit... isn't as glamorous but it makes me popular w/the neighborhood kids they call me the miley cyrus lady which cracks me up)

Fav Product #2

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

Giovanni Triple Treat Tea Tree Shampoo

This is GREAT for my "troublesome scalp" which I've suffered w/FOREVER and finally realized wasnt just dandruff... but psoriasis... I'm treating it w/alternate & natural products instead of Rx's. Alternate shampoo is Jingle Herbal Rejuvenating Shampoo... Very good for a clarifying cleanse, smells great & is a lil tingly.

Fav Product #3

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

Shiseido Eyelash Curler

Enough said! I'm also really liking Nicholas Perdis mascara right now... it's a one coat wonder. Well defined, not clumpy, lasts all day, no smearing. Really a nice find (sephora must be discontinuing his line because i got it dirt cheap). I'd also like to give a shout out to Weleda Lip Balm.... it's AMAZING... and it's $5 at drugstore.com, you're not beating it and it's seriously the only thing that healed my lips last winter when I was in the midst of breastfeeding (aka: having all the moisture sucked outta me lovingly) haha. It's got rose wax, so there's a waxy consistancy that lingers on your lip, w/out being sticky and w/out being tacky... its organic (sigh i love organic finds that are winners like this) and when i say it lingers... it soothes for quite a long time before you feel the need to reapply. there arent any tingly incredients (which i dont mind if my lips aren't irritated and i want to pretend i'm actually plumping them) I'm looking for my HG hair conditioner... so by all means, lemme know what you love so i can give it a try!
