Welcome

Hi world, welcome to my blog! I'm finally biting the bullet and joining the wonderful world of blogging. Just a little about me and what you can look forward to here: I am a professional health and beauty writer. I know lots of scientific stuff about skin care, cosmetics and hair products, but I'll try not to bore you with too much of that! Since I've been writing so much about beauty products, I've had the chance to try out lots and lots of fun products... and I want to share what I've discovered with you.

But, I must admit, I'm no fashion diva. In fact, you might even call me the Ugly Betty of the beauty industry. I'm a mom of 4 kids with a crazy busy schedule. Confession: I've been know to go shopping without makeup and I've even gotten the mail in my pajamas on more than a few occasions! But, as much as my neighbors might disagree, I actually do care about the way I look. I'm 34 but I still feel like I'm 25, and I'd love to look like it too.

So this blog, is my journey and I'm sharing it with you. I'm a writer, not a cosmetologist, so I know lots of details but not a lot of technique. But I'll share with you what I have learned and what I'm trying. And maybe you can even share a few tips with me along the way.

What to look forward to:

• product reviews and comparisons

• budget options (I don't like to spend too much if I don't have to)

• quick, timesaver tips

• sale prices and coupons that I find along the way

Coming up soon: What's in my vanity? and What's in my makeup bag? Plus, I'm currently testing out several sunless tanners. Look for details and product recommendations in next couple of weeks.
In the meantime, let me know if there is anything in particular you'd like me to cover. See you soon!
