Soooo maybe your eyes need a little help like mine. Blame it on lack of sleep or parenting–way easier on the ego than blaming it on age. I found a really nice little eyecare system from Bliss that’s been a pleasure to use. I’ve been a longtime...

I’m a sunscreen addict. I won’t leave the house unless I’m slathered with the sunscreen. (And you wouldn’t be mistaken if you saw two kids leave my house in the mornings looking like they were dipped in white paint.) But finding moisturizing...

While I am still the one mom who thinks my daughter should wash off her play nailpolish before heading off to elementary school, I understand that the teen years are different. Instead of ducking perfume-sprayers in the department store for hours while trolling for...

If you counted the number of times my reviews have stated that moms love being pampered… well, it might start to sound like a cry for help. As we all know, motherhood is a 24-7 job, and when we finally get some down time, we deserve the best–in bath...

I still remember the day I learned about sulfates, parabens, and phthalates and what they can do to unborn babies. I waddled into my bathroom, read the ingredients of my favorite products, shook my fist at nasty chemicals and the companies that put them in shampoo,...

My girls have this ridiculous obsession with lip balm. Considering how it’s actually on their lips (and thus, entering their digestive system, let’s be honest) I tend to be more conscientious about lip balm ingredients than even things like kids’...
