King Spa & Sauna, Chicago, $25

So, this was probably the most insane spa I have ever been to. My girlfriend had been before to this one and to the Spa Castle in NYC, so I thought I was mildly prepared because she talks about it frequently. Nevertheless I was decidedly not. Continue reading

Pier 1 Reed Diffuser in Lavender $12.00, Refill $15.00

I love love candles, so much so that my late night beauty shopping escapades with Sophia started because we always seemed to need candles after a night of going out, you know for following lazy Sunday afternoon. Continue reading

Four Paws Magic Coat Tearless Shampoo for Cats & Kittens with Protein & Lanolin $7.47

I love to try weird beauty things, especially if they will save me money. Despite appearances and my love of beauty products, I do like saving money. Anyway. My cat, one of them, gets very stressed if I am stressed or if anyone else in the house is. And when he gets sympathy stress, he well, he gets sick, and by sick I mean stomach issues (no details necessary) and then he needs a bath.

 I promise this eventually ends up on a beauty issue. Continue reading

Dabu Nail Hardener $6.91

I found out about Dabu a long time ago. Nevertheless, this top coat blows all other top coats out of the water. While I can’t say much on shine (all top coats loose shine within a day), what this one does, that blows all others away, is really keep your polish chip free for days. FOR DAYS!  Continue reading
