I was first introduced to the ancient beauty and fragrance line Santa Maria Novella years ago at Saks on the East Coast. The products have been made in the same hand-done methods for centuries and include a variety of soaps, scents and skin preparations. Despite it's old world charm and history, the brand is still very niche and not super well know here in the States.

I found this write up on CNN and it gives a really nice back story and features some beautiful photos of the store in Italy as well, so I wanted to share it!

Wouldn't you just love to browse the shop and sample all of the time-tested formulas!?! I'd go right for the products developed for the Kings and Queens! Hope you enjoyed this!

We all LOVE a great beauty tip, but I found these vintage tips from icons like Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor especially fun! Thanks to the Huff P for this fab feature showing us how Hollywood's leading ladies of the past kept all sort of gorgeous!

Siiiiigh, if only Marilyn were still around today! I feel we could totally lounge poolside swapping tips on maintaining our blondness! LOL

An old High School friend posted this on my FB page and I just had to share! She also asked what I thought of the concept of "sleep masks" for skin and what I would recommend. Well, take a look at the POPSUGAR article and then see my take on it below!

Soooo, YES!! I LOVE overnight sleep masks and serums for the skin! While we sleep is when the skin goes hard to work to repair and replenish. I have always been a fan of Sisley's Hydra Flash. the only drawback is the very steep price. I have to say that out of this list, I am eager to try the Boscia! I know they do a great mask and the price is great! 

Hmmmmmm, I think I feel a video coming on!!! Sleep tight until then!  ;)

Oh wow, now this was fun!!! My first drugstore beauty haul video on my YouTube channel! I found some super fab and fun finds in skincare and makeup at CVS and Target. I give you the scoop on why I decide to try them and what I'm hoping for in regards to results. Then I wrap it up with a mini-review at the end of the video so I can give you the scoop on whether or not the products  were "fab" or "flop".

Do you have any fave drugstore finds?! I really did like a few of these, others...well...you have to watch and see!!

In case you missed it, check out this episode of Bravo's Millionaire Matchmaker with Perez Hilton!! Patti sets him up on a blind date...with me!! LOL The funny part of it all is that I met Mario  years ago through friends, but we had a really fun time and just chatted about life and dating, LA verus New York, etc.

This was a totally fun experience, a couple of my friends were daters as well and the new guys we met were all super sweet! And yes, Perez is totally a good guy and in a super happy place! :)
