Chanel has just come out with a new matte foundation Le Teinte Ultra Tenue and today was the first day that I tried a sample of the liquid version. In short, its excellent. Its one of the best foundations I’ve ever used. It seems like a perfectly balanced foundation with the right combination of coverage…

This morning when I weighed myself my weight was similar to what it was when I was 16 (my height is still the same also). It was the first time that I can remember it being this low since I was 16! The no-refined-carbs, vegan, sattvic, organic diet is really awesome. I was just talking…

It works! It really works! And its pure! And its ecological! This morning I weighed myself and my weight is the same as it was when I was 16! Many people, as they age, they go in the wrong direction. They gain weight. They become less healthy. Things go wrong. But not with me! I’m…

Non-natural over-the-counter and prescription sleep aids are, quite frankly, nasty. One of the worst medications I’ve ever used in my life was Ambien (Zolpidem) which, while it does knock you out, it seriously messes with your personality and moods the next day, to an off-the-scale extent that more than nullifies the sleep benefit.
