Happy Tuesday! For the past few months I’ve been getting my hair cut and colored at Sassoon Salon (you can read about my experiences here and here). Creative director Edward Tedeschi has been cutting my hair and salon and color director Adriana Harrison has been coloring it and I can honestly say my hair has never looked better… they put together this kit with some of my favorite hair products.

Today I want to talk about nail polish! Unless something weird is going on my nails are always painted and I like doing them myself most of the time. It’s oddly relaxing and who has time to sit in a nail salon every week? I have this rack on the wall in my bathroom to store them. It keeps them all organized and adds a pop of color to the room.

There are so many facial brushes on the market right now – those that promise to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, unclog your pores, exfoliate like nothing else, you get the idea. I’ve tried a few of them over the years and found out they’re not all created equally. I wanted to share some insight in case you’re in the market for one.

Two words no pregnant girl wants to hear: stretch marks. I feel like I spent my whole pregnancy oiled up like a turkey trying to avoid them. That might be a bit of an exaggeration but I definitely went through enough bottles to justify that! I know it’s mostly genetics, but I didn’t get any stretch marks so I wanted to share what worked for me.

Last Monday I popped into Facial Works for a little pampering. I’m taking all I can get right now because I know in a few weeks I won’t have this kind of time anymore! Facial Works is a cool spot with a facial bar and services starting at only $50. It’s kind of like the Dry Bar for facials. The location is so cute and has an open room setting which would be perfect for a group of girlfriends.
