How to Pick Your Best Face Primer

A trend that I’ve been loving in makeup over the past year is the emphasis on the complexion. Gone are the days where it’s all about a “statement eye” or “statement lip”—these days, it’s all about showing off and enhancing your skin’s beautiful tone and texture.  Of course, most of us need a little bit […]

The Top 3 Ingredients You Should Be Using on Your Skin

With seemingly endless products on the market, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when it comes to skincare. Here to help navigate the cosmetics aisle is Camille’s personal dermatologist, Elizabeth Geddes-Bruce. At Westlake Dermatology, Dr. Geddes-Bruce helps clients develop a custom skincare routine that’s perfectly suited to their unique skin. That said, she definitely believes that certain ingredients are universally […]

The Best Hair Treatments by Hair Type

We’re deep in the throes of winter by now (pause while I turn up the thermostat—brrr!), which means that our hair has probably seen better days. Whether it’s a flaky, irritated scalp thanks to drying indoor heating or frizz, static and dullness from the cold, now is a good time to consider adding a regular […]

This Mascara Rivals Lash Extensions

It’s undeniable: lashes are having a serious moment right now. Whereas falsies used to be reserved for rare circumstances and extensions were mostly reserved for pageant queens, now many women count applying false lashes or getting lash extensions touched up as part of their regular beauty routines. Personally, I prefer a more natural lash look, […]

The Best Nighttime Retinols

It’s true that there isn’t a magic spell for perfect skin—however, retinol is such an amazing ingredient that it’s almost a supernatural solution for whatever skin woes are getting you down. A derivative of vitamin A, retinol speeds up skin cell’s renewal process (sometimes referred to as “cell turnover”), meaning that with regular use, you […]

The Brow Fillers Pro Makeup Artists Swear By

Beauty trends seem to come and go on an almost weekly basis, but one trend that doesn’t seem to be going anywhere—thankfully!—is full, defined brows. After the harrowing period in the ’90s when women hacked their brows down to barely-there lines (I was totally guilty of this—were you?), the bushy, natural brow made a serious […]

The Best Products for Hiding Dark Under Eye Circles

I know this is kind of a dramatic statement, but I have this secret belief that one’s under eye concealer can make or break one’s makeup look. Here’s why: the right concealer for you (meaning: the right shade, the right coverage level, etc.) can completely change the way your face looks—in a good way, with […]

You’re Never Too Young to Start Using These Age Prevention Products

Recently, Allure magazine took issue with the term “anti-aging”, and I have to say, that’s totally awesome. As the magazine admits, not everything about getting older is wonderful—but the idea that aging is something that we need to fight every chance that we get is sexist and frankly, dated. There is a unique beauty and […]

A 7-Day Skin Detox Challenge For Your Best Complexion Ever

October always seems to be the busiest month, and this year is no exception. In the past 10 days alone, I’ve found myself in Los Angeles, Austin, back to Los Angeles, and New York City, and next week I’m headed to Cabo for a much needed vacation. Juggling so many schedules for my family, my […]

Splurge Hair Tools that are Totally Worth It

Call me superficial, but I always look forward to that first cool, crisp day in the fall where I can actually spend a little time styling my hair and actually enjoy the results of my handiwork throughout the day—rather than having my locks descend into a frizzy mess as they do all. Summer. Long. Something […]

Matte Lips for Fall

It’s easy to get caught up in the “back-to-school fever” this time of year and be convinced that you need bangs, a new wardrobe, and even a new routine—but in my mind, little seasonal tweaks can make a big difference (and cost a lot less money!). Enter: lip color. There are few makeup products that […]

These Oils Will Make Your Skin Glow from Head to Toe

After a long, sticky summer of avoiding anything heavy or greasy for my skin and hair, I always seem to be caught off-guard when the temperatures suddenly drop and my skin is desperately thirsty and my hair is a frizzy mess. Of course, with winter still (thankfully!) being many months away, it’s not exactly time […]

Your Ultimate Dry Brush Kit

Anyone else feel a little bit overwhelmed by the amount of “holistic” beauty tasks we’re supposed to partake in these days? Gone are the days when a haircut and mani-pedi made you feel somewhat pulled together; now you’re expected to start every day with oil pulling and apple cider vinegar shots. Personally, I have a […]

How to Get Rid of Under Eye Puffiness Once and For All

Puffy or dark circles under the eyes have long been proven to be an unattractive trait in scientific studies — probably because they subconsciously indicate that a person is sick, fatigued, or unhealthy. For many people, puffy eyes can happen after a poor night’s sleep, long flight, or case of the flu. But if you’re […]

6 Best Blushes For Your Freshest Summer Face

In an ideal world, we’d all start the day with a sweat session (and maybe a make-out) that left our faces glowing with the rosiness of freshness and youth. If you’re like me however, most mornings the flush is found with a little well-placed blush swirled on the apples of my cheeks, and my beauty […]

High Tech Masks for Your Best Skin Ever

Self care can mean a lot of things, but for a beauty junkie, it often means one thing in particular: doing a face mask. Sure, there can be a bubble bath (or wine!) involved, but at the bare minimum, a treatment that’s left on skin for ten to fifteen minutes can feel downright luxurious on […]
