Constantly on the lookout for a better and better mascara. Sometimes I actually even wear it while doing field work research.

Picked up this in Target the other day because it looked very cute (a bar of soap that looks like a block of wood!). Also the scents (signature, cederwood, citrus, tea tree) are light, manly-ish, but not too over powering. Great for a guest bathroom or kitchen or husband's/boyfriend's/son's bathroom---anything to get them to suds up. These also come in body washes with a block of wood looking top. I personally like to keep it around 1)in case my bf showers at my place and doesn't want to smell girly, 2) to keep at his place for him to use (hey that old spice body wash is too much for me) and to have something for me to use when there with out embarassing him by having frou-frou products. Big PLUS for me is that the citrus scent gets out fishy odors! So keep a bar in the kitchen or if you work with fish (or your honey does) keep the shower gel on hand!

Just got this nail polish, much talked about it is supposedly Tiffany Blue (apparently there are debates). What is it about emulating Audrey Hepburn that makes every woman feel more elegant? I was very excited about this color since it is probably as close as I'll get to anything Tiffany's for awhile. I have put it both on my fingers and toes. I must say that I got mixed reviews on the fingers, it is quite bright and striking, and unless you are 13 it can look a bit childish. BUT, on the toes it is divine! It picks me up to know that my toes are sporting something so happy even if they are hiding away in layers of socks and boots. I see this a great summer color! Plus much staying power, no chips for 3 weeks now (ok granted toes are coverd in socks and such most of the time). I had a hard time finding it in stores, but the internet is a wonder.
