Product reviews for trendy Moms & Dads, their children & pregnant moms
Last Friday, I went to an overdue annual dermatologist appointment to get a skin check. Seeing as I have some fairly pale Irish skin and a whole heck of a lot of freckles & moles, I'm technically supposed to be there every 6 months (it had been 18). Knowing that I wasn't going anywhere after my appointment so I didn't put any makeup on. … [Read more...]
It's crazy scary how thirsty my skin is for a little hydration this time of year. I feel like I'm continually using lotions throughout my day this time of year. It's 15 degrees out. I'm shaking my first at you, Old Man Winter! One new product I'm checking out is Neutrogena's Hydro Boost. I received both the gel-cream and the water gel … [Read more...]
Hanging out with some friends last night, I asked one of my friends, "What is your foundation?" The coverage on her face was literally gorgeous and I had to ask. Turns out it was e.l.f and "from Target - super cheap!," she told me. I had forgotten how great eyes lip face makeup could be. You can find them in-store at Target but they are also … [Read more...]
People, getting old isn't for the weak! I remember hearing about anti-aging products when I was in my twenties and thinking, "I won't need those - I'll grow old gracefully and accept my wrinkles." WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, YOU YOUNG FOOL is all I can say to my twenty something self. Today, I'm all about minimizing the crows feet around … [Read more...]
Looking for a little something to put in her stocking? Go with one of these Neutrogena MoistureSmooth Color Sticks ($8.49) and she will love you for it!

I'm abnormally obsessed with my Urban Decay Naked Palettes but I was excited when I noticed this new Urban Decay Naked 2 Basics Palette that I don't have! It's $29 so it's more affordable than the original Naked palettes. It's smaller (hence the price drop) but I like that it includes some matte and toned-down colors. While I do like the sparkle … [Read more...]
So I'm doing a post on 5-minute makeup and the makeup I wear every day. Of course while I was shooting the video, I completely forgot I was trying to keep it to 5 minutes and it ended up being 7 minutes long. But you'll see, that's because I chat for a bit about each product and I'm confident in telling you guys that you could use all of the … [Read more...]
Here's how my make-up & beauty routine used to go in the mornings: out of the shower after a workout, I'm generally in a hurry because I'm a busy Mom with a crazy schedule. I was usually blow drying my hair-one handed while I did a mad dash through multiple make-up bags that sat next to my bathroom sink, trying to find the make-up I wanted for … [Read more...]
"What's that on your face?," asked a friend recently. I won't name names but a concerned friend was pointing out a sun spot that I have on the side of my forehead. In fact, I've had them for years but she has never noticed because I normally have them covered up and this friend happened to be seeing me makeup less just a few days after I turned … [Read more...]
