I was really happy with the results I got from my first two days of Avon Lotus Shield Frizz Control. To recap, on Day 1, I shampooed and conditioned with Avon Lotus Shield products, worked a nickel-sized amount of the Frizz Control leave-in conditioner into my hair, and styled as usual. Here are the results:…

I have always been a purse junkie, and I treasure my collection of handbags, totes, purses and clutches. Some days I plan my wardrobe around which bag I feel like carrying, which is fun, but can be a pain when I have to transfer everything from one bag to the next. I also have a…
Yesterday I showed you how Avon Lotus Shield de-frizzed my naturally mischievous hair. I was pleased with the results, which were comparable to those from the higher-priced salon brand products I normally use. Of course, Lotus Shield promises more than that: specifically three days of manageable hair. So how did my hair look on Day…

Not only am I always on the lookout for new ways to combat frizz (something you’ll understand when you check out the pics of my…

Since I’ve loved stepping out of my manicure rut, it was fun to see these creative OPI designs at some recent NY fashion shows.

I’m no scientist, but if I were, this is the kind of experiment I’d perform: I’d have one woman with fabulous hair and one woman with terrible hair run a foot race. If my hypothesis is correct, Ms. Rapunzel Locks would clock in well ahead of Ms. Brillo Pad Head. That’s because we all know how empowering great hair…
