Back in July, I told you about a new hair color product I was trying out called Hairprint. It was invented by the country’s top scientist in the field of “green chemistry” (i.e. the kind that aims not to make people sick), Dr. John Warner. I went through some ups and downs with the product. At this […]
Walking (and Filling) the Lines Between Aging and Resistance
Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Restylane® Lyft and Restylane® Silk. However, the thoughts and opinions are my own. When Galderma, makers of Restylane (a brand of injectable fillers for facial wrinkles), invited me to collaborate, I’m not gonna lie. My first thought was F-yeah! It would mean a paid sponsorship, plus a free treatment, […]
To Look Younger (or Just Better), Wear Less Makeup
I can’t wear red lipstick anymore. I never was a huge fan, but I used to break it out on special occasions, like you’re supposed to. Nowadays, I can’t tolerate it. I don’t know what it is, but I’m pretty sure it has something to do with getting older. I can’t pinpoint the problem but it’s kind of… jarring? Or […]
Why I Sometimes Do Stuff to My Face to Look Younger
I don’t want to BE younger. The progression of time facilitates wonderful things. You fall in love over time. You build relationships with your kids as years march on. You get better at things by practicing for weeks, months, years. The bummer is that the culmination of it all is death. And a constant reminder […]
The 6-Step Beauty Kit for Back-to-School Days
School starts this week! Yesterday I discussed the issue of getting up early again after a summer of luxurious sleeping in. I provided some tips on how to get dressed and out the door fast, while maintaining some semblance of style. In addition to getting dressed, there is also the matter of the face. I do […]
Outside Lands Beauty Survival Kit
The three day music festival that is San Francisco’s Outside Lands is one of the best times you can have. With music from noon until night, a land dedicated to chocolate, and even shopping (!), a good time is practically guaranteed. But it can also get challenging in the beauty department. The sun may be […]
No Toxins, All Science: Restore Your Hair to Its Youthful Color and Luster
Photo by Kourosh Karimkhany My hair has gone quite gray in my 40’s, and I hadn’t seen its natural color in more than a decade. But now I have. My hair (the non-highlighted part) is currently the color it was when I was in high school—I mean the EXACT color. Like, scientifically the exact color. I […]
Get a Sweet Nutrition Boost and Enter to Win a Spa Day!
This post was sponsored by Olly. Even though I live at the beach, my doctor informed me a couple years ago that I have a vitamin D deficiency. Bummer! I’ve purchased vitamins several times since then but, unsurprisingly, I always forget to take them. That means every year when I get my check-up, I still […]
Get Beautiful and Raise Money for Clean Water
You know water is a critical issue in San Francisco and all of California, and will be for the foreseeable future. And it’s Earth month, so Aveda is doing its part by hosting a ‘Cut-A-Thon’ to benefit the Clean Water Fund at its salons around the world. In San Francisco, tomorrow, April 14, head to […]
I Finally Found the Perfect Curling Iron
I’ve talked a lot here on the blog about how I do my hair, and I’ve talked about it elsewhere. I used to wash my hair pretty often, because I dance a lot and get sweaty. But over the past two years, my hair-washing frequency has significantly decreased, which likely has a lot to do […]
