The Price of … Lip Gloss celebrity hairstyles, makeup, reality TV, reviews | (1)
Have you guys seen the ads for Jessica Simpson's new VH1 reality show The Price of Beauty? Jessica and her two BFFs, Cacee Cobb and celeb hairstylist Ken Paves, will travel to seven different nations to see what lengths women will go to in the name of beauty. In an interview for Oprah, Ken Paves explained that after exploring the definition of beauty around the world, he and Jessica came home with a new perspective of America's beauty industry. "I actually came back a bit embarrassed and a bit ashamed of the industry that I'm in," Ken said. "Because the industry ...

Clarisonic Mia reviews, skin care | (5)
It's Friday night... Ah, the exciting life of a beauty blogger! Siting home testing some lip gloss, and I'm about to test something I'm pretty excited about--something I spent a big chunk of change on! Well, kind of. Half of it was purchased with a Sephora gift certificate, which has been burning a hole in my pocket since my birthday waaay back in December. (Thanks, mom!) I finally bought the Clarisonic Mia. I'm trying to remember how my obsession with the Clarisonic started. I think it was when I read this bomb-ass post from This That Beauty about her skincare regimen. ...

Beyonce Opens Cosmetology Center charity, gossip | (1)
At first I was like whaaat? when I read that Beyonce just opened the Beyonce Cosmetology Center. Like, doesn't she have enough money? She has to open... centers of cosmetology? Plus, I think it sounded too much like Scientology Center. You think they're kidding with the Scientology stuff, but then you move to LA and realize they are totally serious. It is everywhere. There are huge megaplex Scientology centers and streets named L. Ron Hubbard Way, and you never know when some bagger at Gelson's is going to try to enlighten you. Beyonce laughs in the face of such nonsense. She opened ...

Arms Like Madonna? how to, television | (11)
I thought this arm workout from celeb trainer Tracy Anderson (as in Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow's trainer!) was going to be wimpy because it only uses three-pound weights, but I just tried it out and it was really good! According to Tracy, "Conventional moves won't deliver the sleek definition that most women want. You have to challenge muscles from different angles." It's always semi-bugged me that Tracy Anderson advises women to lift with light weight because I think a lot of women are afraid of weights in general and don't realize how good they are for you, your bones, weight loss, ...

Lady Gaga on Oprah celebrity hairstyles, charity, musicians, television | (7)
Did you guys see Lady Gaga on Oprah yesterday (Jan. 15)? It was seriously life changing. Not even kidding. I've slowly come around to the Gaga, but yesterday was the tipping point. Now I love her. (Look, Gaga gave Oprah a hair bow!) Her performance was rad, especially at the end when she played the piano and sang. The girl has pipes. Her spiky hair killed me, of course. And she seemed so genuine in her interview. I mean, maybe she's playing us, but frankly I don't care. With so many milquetoast performers and celebs out there, I find Gaga so ...

Workin' The Weave celebrity hairstyles, movies | (0)
Eva Longoria Parker showed off some mega fine fake hair at the Hollywood Reporter's Annual Women in Entertainment Breakfast at the Beverly Hills Hotel this morning (Dec. 4). Here's the thing. I take one look at Eva's hair and I know it's fake as hell. Yet it looks amazing! So much soft, glorious, real hair. Hair that was probably snatched off some girl's head in India less than 48 hours ago while she was at the movies or during a prayer service or at the doctor or something. Yo, I caught the re-run of Chris Rock talking about Good Hair on ...

Chris Rock and Solange were on Oprah yesterday talking about Good Hair. I missed the episode, but Oprah had this "what you didn't see" moment up on her YouTube page. I love Solange! So pretty.
