Mood: Wide awake and feeling great! Oh, I just made a rhyme… What was your best vacation ever? A couple years ago after my BFF’s wedding in Boca, El Hub and I drove down through the Florida Keys to Key West. The drive was epically beautiful along a highway that stretches more than 100 miles [...]

Sundays with Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 113
How was your weekend, young lady? I hope you did something fun. Right now I’m cooking stir fry and getting ready to watch The Walking Dead. Can’t wait! Tabs was busy modeling again this weekend. No traveling though. He stayed local, which was nice because we were able to meet for lunch during the week [...]
What Were Your Best and Worst Beauty Experiences of the Week?
So I know this is totally not exciting, but my cuticles have been looking GREAT lately! I’ve been taking the Sephora Stimulating Lavender Cuticle Oil Pen to ‘em a lot (every few hours and then also before bed). I’ve also been unusually good about remembering to use hand cream after each of the 3,456 times [...]
The Weekly Roundup: Posts You Might Have Missed
Can I ask you a question, ladies? It’s very important. Okay, not really. It’s about bangs. I got mine trimmed a few weeks ago, and they’ve grown out to where they’re starting to work my nerves. My stylist offers free bang trims, which I know a lot of stylists do, but I’m not quite sure [...]

The fluffy pink scrunchie I wore with my ’80s Halloween look was the first scrunchie I’d worn since, I don’t know, about 1992. It was part of an 8-pack I found at Target (Goody brand, $5), hanging beside more highfalutin doohickeys like snag-free elastic hair bands and Spin Pins in the beauty aisles. Ya know, [...]
Makeup and Beauty Blog Monday Poll, Nov. 8
Mood: I’m having a hard time waking up, but “this coffee should help,” she said, cupping her mug under her chin as if her sole mission in life was to caffeinate. Have I mentioned I’m not a morning person? If you won a gift certificate to a world-class spa, which treatment would you get? The [...]
What Are Your SBB’s (Secret Beauty Behaviors)?
There are a few things I just never get tired of, like taro Tuttimelon, MAC Power Surge Eye Kohl and Sex and the City (all but the second movie, which I pretend does not exist). I was watching Season 4 the other day, the episode where Carrie and the girls talk about “Secret Single Behavior.” [...]
Sundays with Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 112
It ain’t gruel, but cold pizza and protein powder aren’t exactly gourmet fare. I’m not in the mood to cook, and Tabs went out to dinner with some modeling friends, so it’s prefab food for me. Speaking of Tabs, he had another busy week. You’ve heard of Microsoft’s new game system Kinect, right? It’s their [...]
