Diva Dish: DIY Oil Steamers
I'm not a big DIY beauty girl but when my friend Kelly, who looks at least 10 years younger than she is, mentioned some at-home nightly oil concoction she'd been doing it got my attention. Mainly because her skin looked FLAWLESS and radiant and lush as she was telling...

Daily Diva: Sealed with A (Trench) Kiss
As beauty girls, we talk about runway makeup being a lip look or an eye look, or even a cheek look. But more and more, season after season, it’s a complexion look. And it has to be flawless. And Burberry Prorsum nailed it for its Autumn/Winter 2013 show. The...

Daily Diva: How to Pop Green Eyes
