I'm not going to vacuum 'til Sears makes one you can ride on.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Applying Moisturizer
When applying moisturizer as part of your daily routine, make sure not to use it directly around your eyes -- this skin is more likely to retain fluid, and moisturizer will make the under-eye area appear puffier. But do remember to use some on your neck and throat; skin can become dry there, too.
Quote of the Day
My husband and I are either going to buy a dog or have a child. We can't decide to ruin our carpet or ruin our lives.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Check Your Water

Health and Beauty Tip -- Choosing Powder
When choosing powder, it is (of course) important to match the color of your skin ... but if you're looking for a warmer glow, try something with a pink or peach tint. With pressed powder, you might want to choose something a little lighter than your skin tone.
Quote of the Day
In politics, if you want anything said, ask a man; if you want anything done, ask a woman.
Health and Beauty Tip -- Choosing Eyeliner
