Victoria's Secret used to make a cucumber melon lotion that I loved, but then they stopped making it. I think JayGirlsMom and I both loved it...and miss it. Oh it was so fresh...and sadly I may never smell it again!

So while they can't replicate the cucumber melon scent, there is a company that will replicate your favorite discontinued lipstick, lipgloss, or nail polish. It's called Giella.

But let me warn you, it isn't cheap.

holiday gifts

It's gift giving time again. Is it just me or did the season sneak up really fast? I am not prepared in the slightest -- financially or mentally. But I put my thinking cap on and asked some moms and came up with a list of beauty and style gifts all under $10.

You can wrap these items with some of your kid's construction paper, take a little ribbon and tie a pretty bow, and I'll bet the receiver of the gift is going to be really happy. And so will you -- great gifts without a big price tag!

Kids have such gorgeous hair!

Long, luxurious locks -- it's what I try to have. I try. But it's not always easy. Sometimes the last thing I have time to care for is my hair. On days I don't have to be out in public, I twist it up with a clip and that's that.

But there are easy ways to get and keep your hair as healthy as possible -- and they don't cost a lot or take a lot of time.

Me with shorter semi side swept bangs.

I've had short bangs that went straight across and I've also had really long side-swept bangs -- can you tell I'm a huge fan of bangs for myself?

The side swept bangs look better on me and that makes sense now that I've got these tips from stylist Antonio Prieto.

Bangs, or fringe as he calls them, can look great if you first identify your shape of face, then get the right fringe cut.

The Perfect Blowout with the Parlay Brush?

November 17, 2009 at 7:00 AM by Cafe MicheleZ - Comments (6)

blow out brushYou know how when you go to the salon and they blow dry your hair, it almost always looks fabulous? But then when you try to do it yourself, at home, it just never looks as smooth or as good?

I'm an embrace the waves in my hair kind of girl -- in fact, I wish I had more curl. But my sister loves her hair straight. And no matter how you wear your hair, some of us (ahem, me) can often spend lots of money at the salon.

Now I'm not saying to ditch the salon -- I love being pampered -- but wouldn't it be great to get a look as good as they can give you?

The makers at Parlay Brush say they can.

If my husband tells me I look beautiful when I have not a stitch of makeup on, I really feel pretty. Then I wonder if he has his contacts in. Hee hee. But if you wear makeup, like I do, sometimes you look at yourself without it and think...yuck.

Although there are some things I do like about myself...even without makeup.

I'm in love with headbands right now. I've been for a while, but since I've been pregnant and my rings no longer fit and long necklaces look odd against my belly, my favorite thing is to wear accessories in my hair.

I usually wear one on the weekend when I want to feel pretty -- it's an instant pick-me-up. And LuminousMom makes some really cute headbands and really great prices!
