From Ningin: Boy what an intense weekend of flash gaming! Going into this I really didn’t think the teams were all that balanced. With only three total points separating the first and last team, it seems we have some real competition. WireMeis first getting a 24 out of a possible 36 points. Team Mixr Users is second trailing by just one point. BlitzKuTek is not far behind, trailing by 2 points. Ningin, the once dominant team heading into this tournament, is surprisingly last trailing WireMe by 3. Let’s get to the breakdowns: More »

About two years ago, my friend recommended a lip therapy treatment that seemed too good to be true. During the winter, the edges of my lips get pretty dry and nothing ever seemed to solve this problem.

Sunday is probably my favorite day of the week, mainly because I usually don’t have to do much of anything. I find that Sunday is often the best day to indulge in a little bit of self-pampering, but I can’t really afford to be running off to a spa all the time (or ever, really). I present to you my top three little beauty indulgences that you can try at home! More »

It’s important to me as a makeup artist to have some organization to my makeup kit. Consolidation is also key to getting my kit feeling light and easy to lug around on travel to jobs. My eyeshadows and blushes need something durable to be stored in so they don’t get damaged in transit or on a plane ride.

The Unii Palette is the answer to all my problems. It is a magnetic makeup palette, that will store all your favorite refillable’s and non-depotable beauty products. More »

Taking a bath is a relaxing way to unwind, and you should treat yourself to one every so often. In addition to relieving stress, baths can also do wonders for your skin.

You can do so many things with lavender essential oil, which is why I always have it in my bathroom. It’s gentle on your skin, and the scent is pure bliss. You can add five to ten drops to your warm bath water, and it will calm your body and mind. Lavender has several properties…it can promote healing and relaxation and reduce redness and irritation.

One of my younger friends is so excited to go to her school’s sweetheart dance, and it kind of made me wish that I was back in high school again. Of course, that feeling passed quickly. Anyway, we were brainstorming different ways that she could do her makeup, and I thought I would share some of our ideas. More »

Some might say I’m afraid of change. I have been wearing the same pressed powder for the last 12 years, after all. But Clinique Pressed Powder just works so well, I have no reason to make a switch. Find your shade and try it for yourself and you’ll see what I mean. More »

Last night, I made my way over to Sephora on 5th Avenue for some advice from a respected source: Steve Ward. You might know Steve from VH1’s series, Tough Love, where he acts as host and relationship counselor to a group of ladies who need a lot of help in the love department. Steve was visiting the store to talk about dating and to give some advice on beauty. More »
