Today’s post is kind of all about ME. Not that that’s anything unusual, but in case you haven’t noticed, this blog hasn’t been updated in days, all because I fell victim to some kind of evil flu virus. So much for starting off 2012 all gung-ho with my beauty resolutions.
But now, as I ease back into the land of the living, what’s top of mind is how I can reasonably look like I spent the past few days on some kind of ski vacation (read: fresh and glowy) instead of throwing up in my pajamas (think: pale, dark circle-ridden and flaky).
