You Gotta Have Faith

So maybe George Michael didn't sing our all time fave on the AI finals the other night, but we still have faith - in cute accessories. Our new product crush is the tattoo inspired pillbox from retro inspired artist Karyn Cantor $18.00 at Uncommon Goods.

Take A Powder

We're not big fans of PETA and their shock tactics, but that doesn't mean that you'll catch us flouncing around in a mink stole. Be that as it may, we love us some luxurious sable makeup brushes, and are dazzled by Sonia Kashuk for Target's newest powder brush. The contoured shape makes it easy to hold, and the rounded shape ensures that your bronzer or translucent powder goes on sheer as can be. $19.99 at Tar-Jay.

A Rose (And Geranium) By Any Other Name

It's a battle as old as time, no it's not good vs. evil but more like oily T-zone vs. dry patchy areas. Lucky for us HollyBeth's natural handcrafted skin care has not only the most adorable website ever (seriously, check it out) but all natural products that soften the dry spots and don't goo up the greasy ones. Try the Rose and Geranium Face Cream which contains ingredients like, um, Oil of Geranium and Rose Geranium. $45.00 for 4 oz.

Micro-(Soft)

So maybe we were a bit premature in suggesting that you break out the Manolos just yet. A quick glance at our own feet revealed chipped polish and callouses on every conceivable surface. Lucky for us the XL Pro Foot File from Microplane landed on our desk. This giant foot file sloughs off tough skin and leaves you with smooth, soft, Manolo ready feet.

Who knew that we'd be recommending that you buy your beauty products from a company that also makes cheese graters, $29.95 at Microplane.

Your Pedicure Pal

Winter has not been kind to our feet. Between Uggs for everything from grocery runs to work to gym, our feet have gotten used to a little added cushion every day. Suddenly it's spring! Cute shoes are cropping up everywhere. Strippy strappy sandals abound and our feet are nowhere near ready, worse- we've all but forgotten how to walk in our highest heels.

Ms. Bradshaw and company may be used to strutting in their stilettos, but we find that our tootsies get temperamental and cry out for relief after even a short walk in our Choos.

To the rescue is ALCiS, a genius new topical pain relief cream that soothes our sore feet, doesn't smell funny (in fact it's packed with botanicals) and doesn't leave our feet feeling funky. $20.00 for a 2 oz. size at Walgreens.

Kiss Kiss

When contemplating that first kiss with a special someone there's so much to take into account.

Fresh breath? Check, got the Altoids right here baby.
Drool control? Always a good idea, though that man is in fact slobber worthy.
Smooth, kissable flake-free lips? You betcha- courtesy of The Lip Scrub by Sara Happ. We almost didn't want to open this delicious brown box, but are so happy that we did. Our lips are soft and sweet and ready for that special someone. Ahem. I said - we are soooo ready for that special someone. Our favorite is Almond Creme - buy yours here for $20.00.

Hair Play

Here's something I haven't told too many people- I haven't cut my hair since last summer. It isn't that I haven't had the opportunity- quite the opposite in fact, when you're a beauty writer everyone wants to cut your hair. I've just started taking a very Zen attitude towards my grooming - all live and let grow (and grow, and grow) and that sort of thing.

The strange thing is that my hair looks better than ever. It also looks a lot like the way it did when I was in high school- only back then I was spending hours each day twisting, and blow drying and otherwise torturing it into place. These days though, I have one and only one holy grail product - Hair Play Set which is part detangler (oh how I yearn for the days of Johnson and Johnson No More Tears detangler) part setting spray and part leave-in conditioner all in one bottle - all this for under 20 bucks.
