Experience with the Omorovicza Moor Cleansing Cream
I have had little experience with the brand, Omorovicza. I am not even sure how to pronounce it. I wasn’t exactly sure how things would go when I tried their Moor Cleansing Cream. Following the instructions, I dampened my face. I put a pea-sized about on my fingertips, and got to work. As I moved…

New mantra: Then let ’em
As I try to change my habits and stop thinking so much about what others think, I’ve taken on a new saying to myself: Then let ‘em This is not so much a blog post as it is my personal encouragement. I can all to easily dissect my plans and try to figure out how…

So, did you know that Brad Pitt has a skincare line?
In an era where it seems a celebrity starts a skincare or beauty line every 20 seconds, it makes sense that we now have one from the man who so strongly held the title of Sexiest Man Alive. (He probably still holds on to that title in the hearts of many of his fans.) Yes,…

Cartier Declaration Haute Fraîcheur is a fragrance I want to keep wearing
Previously I was testing fragrances while sick, which is a horrible idea. After getting a sample of Declaration Haute Fraîcheur from Cartier, I decided to spray some on before going to work. (For the record, I don’t recommend you do that.) A few spritzes on my wrists and I remarked, “Dang it! It just smells…

I want to stop thinking “What would people think?”
I have been thinking a bit about image this week. More specifically my image about how others see me. Not so much, unfortunately, how I see my myself. Man, have you any idea how much energy it takes to do the recon on all the possible ways people might perceive you? And then try and…
