Discovering primer was the best thing to happen to me since discovering the the joint benefits of mascara and shu uemura eyelash curlers.

Flipping through the latest March issue of NYLON, I couldn’t help but wonder — in classic Carrie Bradshaw speak — how actress Camilla Belle got that great, natural looking lip color in her Marvin Scott Jarrett-shot editorial spread.

Wearing makeup should always, always make you look good on the outside, but wouldn’t it be even double the pleasure if it made you feel good on the inside, too?

Some ingredients find themselves time and time again in beauty products and, thus, us beauty junkies have gotten used to their presence in our face washes, moisturizers, toners and the like.

Waking up with mascara, concealer and eyeliner crusted onto your face is not anyone’s idea of a good look, nor is it particularly healthy for your skin. While your body is in REM, your dermis is supposed to rest and breathe.
To ensure you don’t do [...]
