I rushed into Stacey’z Salon to get my hair cut prior to my last TV appearance. As we do, Nicole and I were talking about this and that.  She mentioned a new product the just started carrying called MOROCCANOIL.  I asked what it was and they gave me a sample pack to try.  Now, I feel like I’ve been reading about it everywhere.  It’s the hot line of products with the hip fashion magazines, A-list [...]

I had the pleasure of visiting Armonia Skin Care a few weeks ago. My skin is still noticeably improved as a result of the custom facial I received. Armonia was recommended to me by Noel at Birdrock Fabrications who is also fan of the spa. I dare say, I do know my spas. I have been lucky in that department. First off, I love how Armonia Skin Care is decorated – zen, classy, comfortable, with [...]

Two months ago, I had my first Brazilian Keratin hair straightening treatment. As promised, I want to keep you all updated as to how it’s going. First, I still believe that Brazilian Keratin hair straightening is very different than Japanese hair straightening.

I admit I wasn’t wild about doing reviews of skin care products.  My skin is ultra sensitive and I’ve been through an odyssey of products and dermatologists.  I was contacted by Skin MD Natural and recognized it from some stores in Hong Kong, so I agreed to try it.  I received a bottle of Shielding Lotion in the mail (complimentary), read it, and it seemed bizarre that I could use the same product on my face as I could [...]

There is nothing more liberating than getting out of the shower and doing absolutely nothing to your hair.  That’s been my life for the last 4 years.  I used to have frizzy, coarse hair that would take a good hour to blow dry.  I don’t have time for that with a toddler. Until this week, I’d been straightening my hair using the Japanese method.  It was available in Hong Kong and is in San Diego at limited salons.  [...]
