Celebs always have white teeth. It’s a fact. I never thought of my teeth as particularly un-white, but they sure aren’t sparkling, so when offered a chance to try an easy at-home whitening kit from Smile Brilliant, why not? They mail you the impression kit and a stamped return envelope. You’re responsible for putting some…
I have decided it is the fault of the jeep that my face is not as stress-zit free as it once was (click here for more on my face). What with air pollutants coming at me at 90 miles an hour on the reg—wait, let’s be serious, the jeep ain’t going 90, so maybe like…
If it is possible to love a lotion passionately, it is this. This is Sienna Naturals’ Baobab Oil Moisturizing Body Cream, a new product from Sienna Naturals. A few years ago, when shea was shooting to stardom in beauty products, it looked like Baobab might too. But somehow the funnily-named African fruit escaped mass popularity, while…
Well, well, well. You see, the first flowers my first love ever gave me were orchids. I was pissed—”I have to keep it alive?! You gave me a love fern*?!” I jokingly (not) teased him. But seriously, why couldn’t he bring me dead (“cut”) flowers like the rest of the male flower-giving population? Ah, he…

Probably because I force it to try all these new chemical free beauty products which was apparently acceptable to my face in my mid-20s but come my 29th birthday (btw I didn’t get anything on my list thanksalotmomanddadnooneelsebuysmepresentsanyway), my…
You can take the girl out of country but you can’t take country out of the girl. I love nothing more than tooling around in the jeep blaring country music and singing along at top volume. Country music is my jam of choice, and of course I love the glitz and glitter of country music’s…
The longer I live by the beach, the more of a dirty hippie I become. I already try not to drive or wear shoes on the weekends. I already eat happy animals, get a farm box of veggies delivered, and cook with healthy oils. I already work out, take long walks, play, laugh, breathe deeply,…
My new boss loves good eyebrows. Like LOVES them. It’s made me more self-conscious about my eyebrows than I ever thought possible. So you can imagine how thrilled I was to get the inside scoop from Billion Dollar Brows, a Beverly Hills brand and salon dedicated to brows. And celebs. Because, Beverly Hills. How to…
Dubious. There is no other word to describe how I felt about this IDEA than dubious. Watch this video (scroll to the bottom for full vid) to see how it’s done, or read on for step-by-step instructions: 1. Wet hair. 2. Place a stretchy headband horizontally around your head. (The front should cut across your forehead, all…
“Mom,” I said, rehashing a recent OC party I attended, “Everything was fake. Fake boobs, fake faces, fake …” “Eyelashes?” she asked. “Mom!!!!!” See, Mom knew that at the urging of a coworker, I had gone to get eyelash extensions at LashSpot Spas in Newport Beach. For every inch I got blessed in leg length,…
