So the little one is now a year old and we’ve been battling the baby flu. Poor kid, first official sickness. She looks so out of it here. I’ve been battling my studies and also my skill set. And frizzy hair, but we won’t talk about that for long. I seriously declare that I am [...]

Link Love 5.11.12
Little Miss Coco and I have been traveling since last week and we are now in Fallon, NV. We started our journey in the Bay area on Saturday, renting a charming little Ford Fiesta (!) and then continuing onto Reno and then to Fallon. I’m typing this on the Dell (pfffft!) that I am borrowing [...]
The End of an Era
The Beastie Boys are one of those bands that I always thought would be around forever and ever. Well, you know what I mean. Everything and everyone dies, but still. Adam Yauch (MCA, Nathaniel Hornblower, etc.) helped bring Tibet to younger kids (like me) with the Beastie Boys. Grand Royal was a great magazine and [...]
Video Blog 5.1.12
When the kidlet’s away, the mom will play? And ramble. Sorry about the shitty lighting, eh? It’s so difficult to update as I have a lot on my mind. Mostly good stuff. Now if I could only get it together and figure out a proper makeup tutorial.
Link Love 4.20.12
Here’s a video from Ardell lashes on how to apply strip lashes. It covers the basics. It’s time for some links and some random thoughts. It’s day two of daycare and I’m scrambling to work on different school projects. I found out that I have to tend to the Incomplete class that I left last [...]
Mom’s Day Off
Yesterday was quite a day in this household! It was the first day that Coco has been in daycare and it felt so surreal because of the calm quiet in the house. I’m sitting here typing this and realized that I might actually catch up on my studies. It’s been a partially barren wasteland here [...]
Identity Crisis
Rather than post the usual links without commentary, I’m going to address something that’s been going on as of late. Right now I’m sitting here listening to British Sea Power and I feel like a fraud. Yeah, I do. I’ve been into beauty since I was a little girl and have been an officially licensed [...]

The Best of Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, and Naomi Campbell’s Magazine Covers, From the Eighties to Today (New York Magazine) I’m excited to check out Urban Decay’s newly reformulated/relaunched eye shadows. You can now build your own palette. The blogosphere sounds off: Urban Decay Visit & Build Your Own Palette [...]
Review: Kiehl’s Abyssine Eye Cream
This review is totally unbiased and unsolicited. Sometimes I am sent samples for consideration. Whether I am sent samples or if I purchase a product at full-price, you’ll know that it doesn’t affect the quality or outcome of my review. I actually this purchased this product for full-price last year at Nordstrom at Lloyd Center [...]
I’m Back
Look at Cate Blanchett! I love that Intelligent Life used a picture of her that’s more akin to what she really looks like vs. her ads for SKII. Don’t get me wrong, I do think that Cate looks great in her ads. In both pictures, you’ll still notice the lovely quality of her skin. Excellent, [...]
