This Works: Natural Skincare
There’s an amazingly well curated cosmetic boutique in Bal Harbour call Gee Beauty (very much like Space NK). I stopped in when I was in Miami a few months ago and they instantly won high credibility points for stocking a slew of my favorite brands including Clarisonic, Rodial, Rodin, Dr. Brandt, Serge Lutens – truly [...]
Freeze 24/7 IceCream Double Scoop
I’ve been mulling over a few major decisions lately. Potentially I will be putting all of my life savings into buying an apartment and I might fulfill a live-long dream of buying a short-haired mini dachshund. In the meantime however I’ve taken up doing hot power yoga to add more “om” to my life and [...]
Battle of the Métier de Beauté Foundations: And the Winner Is…
I have used Peau Vierge Anti-Aging Complexe Tinted Treatment for almost two years now. It’s always on my face, even for a quick run at the gym. When I ran out of my third bottle last month, I noticed there were now two other foundation options. When I started using Métier de Beauté, the line [...]
Cor Silver Soap: Clean to the Cor
It’s hard to believe that a single soap can offer everything from cleaning to antibacterial protection, brightening, reducing pore size, exfoliating, and even providing anti-aging and SPF. Seriously, can one bar of soap really be this powerful? If it’s Cor Silver soap, then yes. This soap delivers, and it’s pretty amazing. The only claim a [...]

Exciting news from iS Clinical! Their new, much more accessible “iS” line doesn’t require consultation for use and will be sold online. Based off the brand’s original principles, iS will also be pharmaceutical-grade, botanically based, and results-oriented. I’m most excited about the Extreme Protect SPF 30, a revolutionary sunblock that uses their breakthrough Extremozyme technology. It [...]
Korres Wild Rose + Vitamin C Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial: Beauty Sleep
I love a good nighttime ritual – in-room massages, fresh, high thread-count sheets, salted baths…I could happily start getting ready for bed at 6pm! So I always welcome an evening addition, like Korres’ new Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial, a lush cream you apply allover after washing your face before hitting the sheets. Richer than a [...]
Hourglass No 28 Primer Serum
You might have heard me gush about Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer SPF 15 at some point in these last few years because it’s hands down one of my favorite products. It goes on baby bum smooth and is the perfect under-layer for liquid foundation (it also doubles as an eye primer). I always thought that [...]
Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Tinted Moisturizer: Not So Hot and Heavy
It’s unusual for Kiehl’s to miss the boat, but this time they sure did. I was very surprised to find their Ultra Facial tinted moisturizer to be so thick. Even though it claims to be lightweight and easy-to-absorb, that’s simply not the case. This is anything but a light tint: it’s full-coverage with a stubborn [...]
