The Beauty Bug is Back

Sunday, July 27th, 2008

…back from vacation, and is ready for Her beauty rehabilitation to begin.
Vacations make us all lazy and cause us to change our normal routines - beauty regimens included. During Her vacation in Saint Maarten, The Beauty Bug occasionally went to bed with Her makeup on (shudder) because She was just so lazy, went to bed [...]

Vacation

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

The Beauty Bug should have told you this before, but it just crept up on Her. She’s currently on vacation in St. Maarten. She hoped to get some posts up for you while She was here, but the beach and the piña coladas have distracted Her. Her apologies - She’ll be back up and running [...]

Dear Beauty Bug

Beauty Bug reader Julia writes…
Hi, I have a completely random question: I’m being forced to go on a 3-day camping trip. No showers, no nothing. What beauty tips/tricks do you have for staying fresh? (I also have brow-skimming bangs, which tend to get a little oily. I’ve heard of powder that helps absorb [...]

Tales from the Caribbean

Friday, August 10th, 2007

The Beauty Bug first must apologize for not posting more over her vacation…She just couldn’t out down her margarita long enough to type a single sentence.
Anyways, She’s back, and ready for September and all the new fall makeup, but, for all those of you who are still planning on taking a vacation to a tropical [...]

On Holiday….

Monday, August 6th, 2007

The Beauty Bug will be coming to you poolside from tropical St. Maarten this week. She’s on holiday.

And let Her [...]

The Beauty Bug *just* finished making all of the plans for her summer vacation. She’ll be going to sunny St. Maarten in August.
So, She has a few months between now and then to go shopping for cute summer dresses and determine her vacation wardrobe. But, one thing that She knows She’ll be bringing is her [...]

Sephora’s Sun Safety Kit

Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

For those who haven’t seen The Beauty Bug in person, She’s pale. Very pale. We’re talking Bare Escentuals Fair and MAC NW15. So pale that She’s often teased by her younger, less-wise brother who mockingly says, “You’ve been tanning?” Most time she just glares at him and gives him a priceless dirty look.
Because of [...]

Sweet T Original

Wednesday, January 17th, 2007

One of the many things that I’ve instantly been able to enjoy since starting my site is getting to meet great people. It reminds me of my *NSYNC days - while out at their many concerts and events I met the best people and we bonded over *NSYNC (did I just say that out loud?). [...]
