Three words: Hourglass. Ambient. Dupe. Yeah, I went there. I totally did. These Luminizing Glow Powders by Honest Beauty… I would bet my tabby’s stripes that the team behind them had the Hourglass Ambients firmly in mind, because they look and feel just like ’em. They have that same lovely low-key luminosity — same effect that you can kindasorta tell is there if you look really, really closely — and the powder grains are just fine, fine, fine. Like Michael B. Jordan fine. FOINE. Even better, the pans are pretty big (0.35 ounces), and they’re only $19.99 each, but the...

As I sit here typing this on my laptop in my dining room, I still have sand between my toes, salt water in my fur… Actually, in my hair, but the word, “fur,” slipped out because throughout our entire trip down to San Simeon and Hearst Castle this weekend (I’ll tell you all about it tomorrow), I kept thinking about how much Tabs loved beaches. Some of his most historically successful, legendary kitty modeling photo shoots occurred ocean side. Waikiki on Oahu in Hawaii, and the Central California Coast, were among his favorite beach locales, and not just for kitty...

OK, I’ll come clean (haha! Get it?). I spend an inordinate amount of time in my shower because 1) nobody asks me questions while I’m in there, 2) nobody bites my ankles, 3) nobody tugs at my hair, tries to get on my lap, or begs for food (I’m talking to you, Tabs). It’s my safe place, so if it seems like I spend more time showering than a normal woman should, it’s BECAUSE I AM HIDING. 🙂 A couple things I’m currently using in the pursuit of covert cleanliness… H2O+ Beauty Coconut Verbena Body Wash and Body Butter Body...

It was in my family when I was growing up, but it wasn’t directly addressed out loud like makeup was. Lipstick, eyeliner and blush were definite hard “NOs,” but it was kinda implied that hair dye was too. Not that I really wanted to dye my hair when I was a kid. The curiosity kicked in later when I was in college, and that’s when I started experimenting with box dyes and at-home highlighting kits… Mind you, I wasn’t good at any of it, and I’m 100% sure my hair color looked terrible because I’d always leave the color in...

It had been a minute since the last time I wore false lashes, but I went there on Halloween. Thankfully, I remembered an absolutely game-changing tip when it comes to falsies. If you’ve every had trouble applying them (and who hasn’t?), what you need to do is hunt down a set of UD Urban Lash False Eyelashes. They’ll make your life easier. Doesn’t really matter which style… Seriously, it’s not about the lashes themselves, although they’re pretty good too. But I’m all about that lash glue. I think it’s the best out there. I stockpile Urban Decay falsies just to...
