GIVEAWAY: SEINT Makeup Bundle
I’m always on the hunt for good makeup. There are a ton of companies but when you really look at the ingredients, how it’s made, where it’s made, if it’s tested on animals, your options go down a lot. After doing tons of research I found Seint. What makes them different? They offer foundation palettes…
Dancing with Jake Ryan
So there I was, a fresh-faced budding young woman of 14. I was at the movies with some friends, and that’s when I first saw him. He became very important during my “formative years” and was often on my mind as I drifted off to sleep…Jake Ryan. When Sixteen Candles came out in 1984, I…
I want to give you an STD
Ok, you should know by now that I’m into the shock factor, and I’ve come to realize that’s ok. I don’t believe as a society we listen to the gentle whispers.

Smell Ya Later!
I love to cook and my friends all know it (clap your hands). By far, the most questions I get is about Mama Ellen’s recipe for homemade deodorant. It never fails…when I tell someone I make my own deodorant they wrinkle their face, say something like, “Ew gross” and by the end of our conversation…
