Skin Type: Dry and very sensitive

When your skin is as dry as mine is, you find out pretty quickly that the way to make your makeup look great without spending hours in front of the mirror every morning is to pamper your skin. Sure, I have a ton of things to say about foundations and lipsticks and hair mousse, but I spend a lot of time (and money) perfecting my skin underneath all that makeup, and it should become obvious that I am obsessed with anything that says moisturizer or brightener, especially if accompanied by those magic words "specially formulated for sensitive skin". Other important criteria include: Does it smell heavenly? Does it tingle? Very important.

Weekly Reader Roundtable

Wavy Lady

You might be one of them.

You know, one of those women who creates hair envy as you pass others by?

You know those luscious waves are making us jealous don't you? Yes, yes....we know a big key is using a CLOSED curling iron, starting a few inches from the root and winding the rest of the section around the outside of the barrel. But there's another important part of this look - the styling product! If we can't get those curls to last, what's the point? So tell us, oh pretty one: What hair product do you use to get that look just right?
