Dawn, the lovely writer at Turby & John (a great blog…totally puts my bloggin’ skills to shame) had her morning routine featured on No More Dirty Looks. Dawn and I were both super excited, as we’re both total NMDL nerds and admire Alexandra & Siobhan so much, as we’re both writers AND love love love [...]
*Ok. So, the title is a BIT of a lie. Let me justify myself here. Genetics do play a part in the hand you’re dealt when it comes to your looks, skin type included.

Not just because you should know exactly what’s in there (even though that’s incredibly important for the sake of your health), but also to know what the bulk [...]
