7 Ways to Cure Winter Chapped Lips For Good

It’s right about that time of the winter when I start to feel… a bit run down (to put it mildly). Between the lack of sun, lack of humidity, and lack of a meal that doesn’t involve carbs and red wine–hey, a girl’s gotta make it through somehow–by the end of February, my skin has […]

The Most Romantic New Fragrances

I don’t think I’m alone in saying that Valentine’s Day can sometimes be anything but romantic. In my mind, a holiday that centers completely around men meeting impossibly high standards for romance in the middle of dreary February is just kind of unfair. However, even though most of us enlightened ladies know that Valentine’s Day […]

Bright Makeup to Beat the Winter Blues

Something inexplicable happens to me when the temperatures drop every year: I pack away my colorful, cheery spring and summer clothes and get dressed day after day in almost completely neutral clothing.
