However, I repeatedly have my friends and family ask me for my favorite brand of lotion, perfume, mascara, you name it. So I thought YOU, my dear readers, might want to know as well. When I find something I like, I stick to it. I'm a stickler for quality. If only I had a dime for every recommendation I've ever made - I would have kept my beloved Bain de Soleil lotion from being discontinued!
A little about me...I grew up in beautiful Napa Valley, where I cultivated my taste for the hedonistic lifestyle and oh yes, food and wine. I then chose to expand my narrow world view by going to U.C. Berkeley, where I learned what "keeping up with the Joneses" meant in my lovely, albeit semi-shallow sorority. And I also learned to not give bums money (I prefer giving monthly to the Humane Society). I then moved to San Francisco, where I worked for a major retailer for four years. I learned to never buy anything full price; I also refined my taste for cashmere, sensible ballet flats, and the value of "investment" pieces.
My new favorite word (thanks Operations professor) is "Kaizen," which means continuous improvement in Japanese. I think there is always room for improvement - intellectually, spiritually, emotionally, and since this IS a beauty blog, physically too!
P.S. There I am as a two year old - with the blonde hair that I've been striving for ever since :)
