I’ve dealt with dark circles under my eyes since I was a kid. I blamed it on lack of sleep, my mom, my diet and anything else that came along. I’ve tried a lot of different products, natural and unnatural, to try to deal with the “you look tired” look. Some products have literally burned [...]

Well, although the past few days have been gloomy in LA, the sun is definitely on its way. I don’t know about you, but I don’t like to be out in public with a greasy, acne-ridden face. A little shimmer is fine, but not greasy. If you like greasy faces, there may be a special [...]
