…and say bye-bye to feeling bad about your looks.” Oprah Winfrey

Girlfriend Suzanne has gorgeous, straight blonde hair which she hates. All she wants is hair that curls. Girlfriend Julie has brown curly hair which she constantly complains about, wishing endlessly for hair she could straighten without a flat iron and six gallons of hairspray. It seems inevitable that we want whatever we don’t have…

We all love our girlfriends, so what do you do when you have a friend who doesn’t realize how great she is? I’m talking about positive body image. We’re all uniquely beautiful, but sometimes we just can’t see it. Girlfriends don’t let girlfriends hate their bodies! Here are nine ways Read More »

May 8, 2012 – 4:07 pm

girlfriend guru,finding time with friendsTo speak painful truth through loving words – that is friendship.

Henry Ward Beecher

It takes a real friend to speak the truth. Sometimes the truth is painful to admit and maybe even to hear. But, as friends, we’re still there for each other. We weigh the truth through eyes of love and admiration, we listen with acceptance and support.

The Eyes Have It :) | Allegra, CVS, Spring Make-up #ClearBeauty

May 3, 2012 – 2:14 pm

friendship-cvs-allegra-shopping-bag, spring beautyWhat’s Your Spring Beauty regimen? What Spring Beauty trends are you seeing?

Spring has sprung, which in my region means allergies have too. We’re all sniffing and squinting – it’s a lovely sight, let me tell ya. :)

So, when asked about what Spring Beauty Girlfriend Advice I could offer, I knew the old allergies needed to be tamed to be able to keep mascara on my lashes and not all around my eyes.

The fine friends at Collective Bias (see below) invited me to explore ways to prepare and shop for Spring Beauty. And, the folks at Allegra invited me to CVS to explore the make-up aisle now without my make-up-impairing allergy issues.

To prep for my CVS Spring Beauty shopping, I first Read More »
