QVC

So today QVC is doing a day of beauty. Very cool. That said, why is it that some of the models looked better in the before picture than in the after? Scary, hum. I realize that QVC must use a lot of cosmetic products in order to punctuate the change. But seriously, do we really need or want to bring back Tammy Faye's mascara? NO, NO, NO. Women look best when they look like themselves. I'm such a sucker for natural or bridal make-up that looks effortless, even though it never is. I'm not saying women should never go for a dramatic look, i.e. at the Oscar's or Emmy's, but I love when women look like women and not clowns. 'Nuf said.

Kinerase Can Erase

There's a reason this stuff is expensive. I love the way Kinerase's gentle daily wash and lotion help smooth my sometimes discolored skin. Very soothing, non-irritating. Just what the doctor ordered. By the way, you can buy it online at a variety of stores and of course, at my alma mater, Sephora.com. By the way, if you want to try it without marrying the product, Kinerase is offering a trial pack/travel set. It's not cheap, but it's a great way to sample silky skin.

Top Shelf Recommendation: Are you Lovely? If so, take a whiff of Sarah Jessica Parker's new fragrance Lovely. A must-have if you like musky scents. By Coty.
