In Beauty Banter 1368977832.877 A tiny plus of the Aging Process but as we all know,the sprouts on the face are more annoying than the fuzzy legs of days gone by; those rogue facial hairs are just bizarre,aren't they... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368977545.143 Di, I made some crazy bad decisions based on my relationships with "creative guys"-one of the more life-determining ones was my choice to to go art school; I graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago,as did my HS art teacher/mentor whom I adored. ( I was also seriously involved with a guy who was already a student there-OY!!) We shared that magnetic pull to these guys;it took me DECADES to learn to resist... Good thing the roofers weren't one of those scam groups that start something that they goof up in order to "fix" at even greater expense! Good thing Kitty was on the watc... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368798036.233 Di,it would be too remarkable if I somehow had a connection with that "old boyfriend" as a friend of mine worked for a major recording studio in Chicago for decades as a sound engineer. Also,I knew quite a few musicians over the years from wildly various venues like the Cellar,in AH to the Lyric Opera-quite a range,huh? (BTW, I gave up dating musicians for my sanity,LOL) How did the renegade roofers story resolve itself? Inquiring minds want to know! And there must have been a disturbance in the Feline Horoscopes last night because my fabulous feline barfed under the dining table and OF COUR... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368715975.36 The Korres line is one of my favorites because the formulas are so "natural" and the Wild Rose line has such a pleasant scent,plus it works! Right now I'm using up a Korres Quercitin & Oak kit that had a serum,a primer,an eyecream and 2 moisturizers-day and night- and I like this too. I think the Korres primers are great because they don't have all those silicones and dimethicones,etc. Those "cones" make my skin unhappy. A Yes vote for the Korres line (and do try the lip butters and body butters,bath gel too!)

We can always find some musicians who like classy old blondes with a great sense of humor; what fun road trips,right my friends? We need Loopy for a quartet!! Di,I am always SO tempted to go more platinum. I'm playing it au naturel with maintaining a blonde shade that is super close to my original natural blonde,which Talking Pet likes and so does my hairstylist,but,you know how we gals like to play with makeup and hair color...BJ,how's that multi-level of highlights,e...

WHAT is that all about? Ladies,just relax,and know the Universe will take care of those dear little snots who will be very surprised to discover for themselves, the aging process in all its glory-IF they make it that far. Reminds me of a few generations back,when expecting ladies were supposed to tactfully "stay indoors" and out of sight until after the baby was born. Of course now,a "baby bump" is a fashion statement and cover story...This old lady is...

Hope her future is healthy and happy. Also hope that by sharing her experience,it helps other women with this issue seek medical help ASAP Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368543879.003 BJ--I just checked Nordstrom for Chanel Cristalle and they carry it in all sorts of sizes and related goodies!! So,maybe it's just hard to find and NOT being discontinued! smooches Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368541947.947 Just a thought-have you checked any Lancome shades? (L'Oreal and Lancome frequently have similar colors at different price points,as they are both Cosmair companies.) Another possibility is Urban Decay: they have some excellent neutrals with that combo of pinky/shell/beige that you're searching for-good luck! (Tarte and Bare Minerals also have some great neutrals that sound like your old fave.) Last edited on 5/14/2013 Continue Reading
