I am not a fan of Valentine’s Day, not at all. February 14th is one of my least favorite days of the year. I even broke up with my very first boyfriend the day before, because I found out he got me a gift when I told him not to. Although, there was so much more to this infamous break-up than the purchasing of hearts and flowers, I just have never agreed with Valentine’s Day. Well, at least how most people celebrate it.

I don’t like the clichéd candy hearts, teddy bears that say “I love you,” cards with over-used poems, and anything else that is just plain corny and associated with V Day. There is one thing I do agree with, spending time with someone special on this day – minus the Hallmark cards. Because, despite being single and bitter about Valentine’s, I still find it sweet to do something slightly romantic on this day. More »

Just as the years pass and the seasons change, people make career shifts.

Having personally hired former Beauty Chatters Leeann Morrissey, Brook Flagg, and Sarah Gammill; I was crushed seeing each writer move on from our PlasticSurgery.com, Rancho Cucamonga office during these past few months. And while I literally wanted to grab them by their trendy hairstyles and force them to sit down (and not move ‘til I said so!); I understood each of their unique decisions. And through various social networks, I happily keep in contact with each writer – considering their energy is still part of the Beauty Chat family. Where are they now? Here ya go: More »

L’Oreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara makes your lashes so glamorous that they look like falsies…seriously! I don’t like the glue or the process of putting on false lashes, but I do love the dramatic look I get from them.

L’Oreal has taken false lashes and put them in a bottle, which requires only two simple steps to apply:

• First, apply the nourishing base coat.  No need to let it dry!
• Second apply the lash extending top coat.  That’s it!

I have received so many compliments on how long and full my lashes look…bonus!

It does not get smudgy or flake off; even tears can’t phase this stuff.  When it comes to remove your makeup, you don’t even have to use soap. The warm shower water takes it off easily, without leaving those black circles under your eyes. 

Go to your local beauty supply store and give it a try.  Let us know what you think.
