Poor Valentine’s Day. When it comes to holidays, this one kinda gets the shaft. Sure, there are some who L-O-V-E love it (many of them under age six, mind you). But just as many peeps either put so much pressure on V-day that it determines their entire state of mental health for the month of February… or simply refuse to celebrate and ignore it altogether.

Did that sound dirty?) Keep reading »

It’s not cute. Makeup slides right off, T-zones get instantly shiny and even MY hair starts to frizz.
But seeing as this heat wave is supposed to continue, we might as well learn to deal with it, if not outright embrace it. (One serious bonus: humid weather tends to plump up your skin like nothing else.) Here are 10 beauty tips ‘n tricks for looking HAWT in the hot weather. Keep reading »
