What’s in My Kit: Hot Tools. I am what you might call a maximizer. I will spend days (if not weeks) researching the best possible whatever-it-is-that-I’m-shopping-for.

Monthly Archives: August 2015. The Perfect Scrub (or How To Make Your Bathroom Smell Like a Coffee Shop). When I started making my own scrubs, it wasn’t because home-made scrubs are more economical (mine certainly isn’t).

Category Archives: Sound advice. 4 Common Ingredients That Have No Business Being on Your Face. With a new dog in the house, I’m going through the “Must buy all the best things for my babies! 8221; routine. It’s like the opposite of those Luvs commercials. Topically applied, cools skin.

Everything You Need for the Canine Fashionista in Your Life: part 1. Let’s be perfectly clear here. Dogs don’t care about fashion. They care about their companions, eating, sleeping, sniffing and playing. Dogs themselves are not fashion accessories nor are they an extension of you. You know, like your kids.
