Allure and Oscars

I went through the February Allure yesterday and I only found four pages worth ripping out and one "perfume page". All for pages were for ads. I'm a little disappointed, I usually average at least 10 pages with Allure, with most of them being content not ads.

In other news the Oscar nominations were given out. Jennifer Hudson got a best supporting actress nod - now she can ask for more money:) I hope she wins!

New Feature : Beauty Blogs to Bookmark(BBtB)

Some beauty blogs always deliver the goods. I've decide to spend Thursdays telling you where to find them.

This weeks Beauty Blog to Bookmark(BBtB) is Chaptastic.com

I love this BBtB because they always review lipgloss that (9 times out of 10) I can find at the drugstore, and Javajive and Scrappy (the sites bloggers and creators) have kept me from making more than a couple of lip gloss purchasing mistakes. I enjoy the snappy/snarky writing, clean layout, plentiful "lip gloss links" and often updated content.

Check out Chaptastic.com. It's a Beauty Blog to Bookmark.

The Product Review Shelf...

Where do I keep all of those products I buy before I review them? On my product shelf of course! I thought I'd give you a peek behind the scenes at HomeSpaGoddess.com and The HSG Show...

This is my shelf. I review a LOT of stuff, so I have to keep things organized.














The baskets are organized by week. All of the products I'm going to use that week are in that weeks basket. When I buy new products they just go in the next available basket. As of today I have baskets labeled up to March 25, 2007.















Some weeks have more products than others - I'm going to be very busy the week of Jan. 22!











Yeah I know, It's scary:) Send me a pic of your beauty stash. I'm dying to see it.

My Latest Fountain...

Since todays HSG Show is all about Home Spa Accessories and I consider fountains home spa accessories I wanted to share my latest fountain with you. It's the Envirascape Eternal Rain fountain from Homedics.

It was $19 at Ulta, down from $24. I LOVE fountains and I have 6 in my apartment right now. Homedics is my favorite brand, I own several of their fountains, including the Envirascape Shimmering Towers Illuminated Relaxation Fountain, the Envirascape Illuminated Rock Garden Relaxation Fountain, and the Envirascape Relaxing Rains Rain Forest Fountain (this one has sounds).

You have to be vigilant with table top fountains when it comes to the water. You need to top it off every other day, wipe off and scale that's formed and completely change the water regularly or algae and odor will take over. I change mine and clean my fountains once a month, but that's only because I treat the water all month long. How do I do that? Well, I use a capful of bleach every week to keep algae from forming. It works for me although some people say it creates foam. I've never had that problem.

A "day on" instead of a "day off"...

I have the day off today because it's Martin Luther King Day. Instead of lounging around all day, I'm going to make it a "day on" instead of a "day off" and do something constructive. For me this includes cleaning up, organizing the next batch of HSG Shows and reviewing products. I'm also organizing my diet plan. Watch this video of his "I Have a Dream Speech" and have your own "day on".

P.S. No book this week. I'll make it up later:)

Well, I moved too slow. I went to Ulta.com yesterday to buy some HIP eye shadows and all they had left were two shades, Mischief and Playful! I guess I'll have to go to the store. (Sigh) They had every shade on Friday....

I'm completely backed up on posting these Home French Manicure Videos. I'll be posting one everyday this week. Here's part 4...

52 Books in 52 Weeks - Week 2

My book this week is a re-read, it's Spa : Refreshing Rituals for Body and Soul by the Body Shop. This book was this first book I bought when I decided to start HomeSpaGoddess.com four years ago. I was supposed to have this whole "Book Club" thing. We all know how that turned out.

This book has the most amazing pictures of home spa treatments, for the face hair and body. I paid $20 for it, but I was so shocked to see it in Borders this summer for $3! But, duh, it is four years old.

You can get it from sellers on Amazon for $5.69. I highly recommend it.
