You are at the age where pink lip gloss and green eyeliner starts to look a little silly, but you still want to look energetic and glamorous.  If you were smart, you have been taking care of your skin for AT LEAST the last ten years, but if not, there are some fabulous products out there that may work for you!

Think that your dark nail polish would go out of style this Spring? Think again....this season continues with the dark nail trend, adding shine to what was once matte, so try one of the hot Spring colors, or add a metallic topcoat to your existing shades.

TIP: This Spring, stay away from black nails.  instead, opt for navy, brown, and silver...a more stylish counterpart!

Its creeping up faster than you think....that Hallmark holiday that most of us dread every year.. VALENTINE'S DAY! We all know that fragrances (along with chocolates and flowers) are among the most popular gifts for this holiday, so hopefully we can de-mystify finding the perfect fragrance for your special someone.

First of all, you are going to want to look at what you want this fragrance to say about your man (or woman).  Is this person easy-going and bright, dark and sophisticated, or down to earth and romantic? You also may want to consider sticking to a Spring/Summer fragrance for a Valentine's Day gift as these seasons are quickly approaching.  What I recommend, is knowing what their current fragrance is, doing some research on the scent story, and pick a fragrance in a similar range, but maybe with an updated appeal! The #1 rule of shopping for fragrance is make sure to GET A RECEIPT and KNOW THE RETURN POLICY in case your partner doesn't share your scent sentiment!
