I had the pleasure of visiting Armonia Skin Care a few weeks ago and my skin is still noticeably improved. Armonia was recommended to me by Noel at Birdrock Fabrications who is also fan. I dare say, I do know my spas. I have been lucky in that department.
First off, I love how Armonia Skin [...]

Brazilian Keratin Hair Straightening Care

Post image for Brazilian Keratin Hair Straightening Care

by La Jolla Mom on February 23, 2010

Two months ago, I had my first Brazilian Keratin hair straightening treatment. As promised, I want to keep you all updated as to how it’s going.
First, I still believe that Brazilian Keratin hair straightening is very different than Japanese hair straightening. If you get Brazilian Keratin, it’s very important that you realize your hair isn’t [...]

by La Jolla Mom on January 25, 2010

Olive oil has been used for thousands of years to heal, replenish and moisturize skin. It’s a highly effective moisturizer because it  resembles skin’s natural oils. I hadn’t seen too many olive oil based skin care products, until I was contacted by Olea Essence. Olea Essence is carried by Whole Foods, and since I shop there [...]

by La Jolla Mom on January 8, 2010

I admit I wasn’t wild about doing reviews of skin care products.  My skin is ultra sensitive and I’ve been through an odyssey of products and dermatologists.  I was contacted by Skin MD Natural and recognized it from some stores in Hong Kong, so I agreed to try it.  I received a bottle of Shielding Lotion in the [...]

My First Brazilian Keratin Hair Straightening Treatment

by La Jolla Mom on December 21, 2009

There is nothing more liberating than getting out of the shower and doing absolutely nothing to your hair.  That’s been my life for the last 4 years.  I used to have frizzy, coarse hair that would take a good hour to blow dry.  I don’t have time for that with a toddler. Until this week, I’d been [...]

Beauty Alert – Know When Your Cosmetics Expire

Post image for Beauty Alert – Know When Your Cosmetics Expire

by La Jolla Mom on September 29, 2009

I‘m going to keep an eye out for and post about products that I think are cool regardless of whether or not they send me stuff or not.  This falls into the “not” category.  I just think this is a clever idea.
I am guilty of using my cosmetics past the recommended date, which is only [...]

If  only all wrinkles were this cute, right?
I’ve had a lot of facials in my lifetime but had never tried HydraFacial.  I’m going to tell you about the facial in general since not all of my readers are located in San Diego, and then talk about the spa I went to should locals want to [...]

When I heard about Numero Water Boutique, I had to go.
Before I continue writing, allow me to add two important disclaimers.  One, I’m half Japanese and two, I have been a patron of many Asian spas…in Asia. When I was remodeling my house, I ripped out pages from Asia Spa Magazine for inspiration.  I expected Numero to be [...]

How Often Should You Clean Your Makeup Brushes?

Post image for How Often Should You Clean Your Makeup Brushes?

by La Jolla Mom on August 24, 2009

I am totally guilty of not cleaning my brushes as much as I should.  I noticed the other day that one of my brushes was, well,  just plain gross.  
Here’s the deal, if there is bacteria on your brush and if you use the brush on your face, then you’re putting the bacteria right back on [...]
