Sunscreen Search 2008
June 16, 2008
Each year, I take a look at what’s on offer in the sunscreen world. Our family goes through 12-15 tubes in a summer, so I’m price-conscious.

In the article published on January 18, 2008, entitled 10 Wrong Ways to Use Shimmer in Makeup, … well, I made it sound as though there was no right way to use shimmer in makeup.
Not true. Shiny products have the ability to bring out the best (as well as the worst). It only takes a [...]
