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, […]

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.

Now, I’m not trying to overhaul my entire beauty collection at once and immediately toss the hundreds of dollars […]

How We’re Stocking The Bathroom at #CSBungalow

One of the best things about our new office is its proximity to so many great fitness studios. From barre, to spin, to the Hike & Bike Trail, we each have our favorite place to tuck away for a mid-day workout. The only problem? Returning to the office sweaty… especially since you never know when you’ll […]

Sheet Masks to Save Your Skin

I have to admit: when sheet masks first exploded onto the beauty scene, I was a little skeptical. They seemed kitschy at best—and why is something like a single-serving face mask even necessary? Well, I quickly changed my tune around the time that I had a baby and suddenly anything that would streamline my beauty […]

I’m just going to say it: puffy coats and Uggs are always in style. Did we just lose half our readers? Maybe. For those of you who stuck around, you may be asking, “What’s fashionable about looking like a marshmallow?” And to that I say: Being warm and comfy is always fashionable in my book. […]

How to Un-Basic Your Wardrobe

Before the inevitable war breaks out in the comments section about what the term “basic” really means, allow me to define it within the context of this piece. We’re using this word to mean predictable, average, ordinary, non-memorable — basically all of the descriptions that we don’t want to apply to our personal style! But […]
