What It Is:
Lise Watier Portfolio Professional Correctors
Why This Should Be in Your Bag:
Concealer is my #2 makeup product behind mascara. If I have zero time to apply my makeup, I still manage to throw on those two babies because they really do make you look SO much better.
Lise Watier is a brand that pumps out great quality cosmetics, but is sometimes overlooked. The quality of products and price hover in the area of department store brands, so I wanted to share this little gem with you!
How To Use It:
There are 5 shades of concealer in this handy little palette: the Green to counteract redness, the Lilac to brighten the complexion, the Brown to sculpt and define, the Yellow Beige to hide blue veins and dark circles and the Ivory to soften and hide dark circles. The concealer itself is creamy and rather thick, so you may want to warm it up on the back of your hand before applying with a concealer brush! Read More »

There are a whole lot of divas out there. But Mariah Carey has GOT to be among the worst. This clip actually made me die a little inside.
Here’s a quick recap of her cameo on the Home Shopping Network: Mariah freaks out about “unflattering” camera angles, doesn’t seem too thrilled her earrings are selling for $40 and makes a lot of outlandish comments about diamonds. My favorite part? Almost going as far as saying having twins wasn’t worth her body changes. Almost, but not quite.
Oh, Mariah. This was just unreal. In honor of what I hope would be the most embarrassing moment of her life (but she’s a diva, so it probably isn’t) I decided to round up four more Mariah (or alter ego Mimi) Diva Moments… Read More »
I’m currently sitting on my couch in my apartment with my best friend. It is a Wednesday night. We are eating homemade cheesecake and drinking a sweet German Riesling. I have a little buzz and suddenly, we are watching When Harry Met Sally and commenting nonchalantly about Harry’s cynical sexiness and Sally’s unapologetic honesty. And in one hour, I’m turning twenty four.
Just like that. A day slips by. One minute I’m twenty three, sipping wine. And the next minute I’m twenty four and…still sipping wine.
Do you remember when turning a year older was a huge, extravagant celebration? Do you remember when you would count down every single moment until midnight — and you could fall asleep, wake up and wait for your little friends to buy you Polly Pockets and scurry into your parents’ house for cupcakes and gift bags?

As a college grad, seeing the words “college” and “dating” together in one sentence almost seems like an oxymoron. The [sad] truth is that in a college environment, traditional dating is very far from the norm. As we all know, dating culture in college = hooking up. There are still plenty of romantic hopefuls, though, who prefer to tread the traditional waters. Whether in college or not, everyone could always use a little guidance when it comes to the dating game. (And now that the new school year is quickly approaching, I’m sure a few of you undergrads are getting the jitters about picking up the pace again with that college boyfriend of yours!)
So in light of these back to school jitters, I present to you the 1o Commandments of College Dating… Read More »

Every time I see a photo of Olivia Palermo, I remember the days of turning to MTV at 10:00 on Mondays to eagerly soak up the dramz on The Hills, and then immediately going back to my computer the moment The City came on. I’d always have it on in the background and glance up to catch Whitney Port or Olivia making dramatic, over-the-top expressions at each other. And I think Olivia was supposed to be the villian? I never could give The City a real chance to win me over, but Olivia’s status as a socialite keeps her on red carpets all the time, and she has definitely won me over with her classic-yet-modern, dynamic style.

It happens to the best of us. In a post-perfect date romantic haze, you gaze into his eyes. He gazes into yours. With butterflies in your stomach, you move in for what you think is going to be a mind blowing kiss. Cue the fireworks, the Al Green soundtrack, the racing heart, the unwavering desire to rip his clothes from every inch of his beautifully tanned and toned…
Wait, hold up. Did he just put his tongue…was that a lip…what the heck…that’s…not…my…mouth?
Sloppy, ill-timed, poorly executed kisses. Further proof that life is not The Notebook. That sometimes it’s more Wet Hot American Summer. And that we all have to live with it. Read More »

I’m a huge fan of to-do lists. If I don’t write it down, there’s a good chance I’ll forget to do it. Some days, however, time gets away from me and I don’t end up getting as much done as I’d planned — and then I’m stuck with a bunch of leftover tasks that have to get added to the next day’s list. This is one of my pet peeves, because there is nothing more satisfying than looking at my to-do list and seeing all that I’ve crossed off it.
Now, with iDoneThis, I can get that feeling of accomplishment every day, even if I have unfinished tasks still on my to-do list. Every day, iDoneThis sends you an email asking what you’ve done that day, which you can simply reply to with a list of what you’ve accomplished. iDoneThis then takes your responses and plugs them in to your calendar, which you can browse through to see all that you’ve done today, this week, over in the last month, or even as far back as your account exists.

Presumably, we all know that Amy Winehouse passed away on Saturday afternoon, after a long, public struggle with
substance abuse. Though we do not know exactly what the cause of her death was, her tumultuous relationship with drugs and alcohol were most likely linked to any health complications that led to her passing. When the news broke, I was on Twitter, and immediately, there was a huge collective burst of sadness and shock among the people I follow who loved her music and were rooting for her to make a comeback. At the same time, there was another loud outpouring of contempt by people who decided to make tacky, tasteless jokes about how she should have said “yes, yes, yes” to rehab and celebrated the death of another waste of space drug addict. The complete lack of empathy for her, her family, her friends and her fans was just shocking to me, especially mere moments after her death was announced.
It’s one thing to delight in the glee of celebs showing up to events in consistently tacky outfits, becoming divas on the Home Shopping Network, continuing to star in movies that flop or getting caught in ridiculous sex scandals (Seriously, tweeting a crotch photo? Comical, lame and totally worth mocking).
