Madison Reed Hair Color

In high school, I attempted home highlights for the first and last time. "I mean, I don't hate it, but I don't LIKE it," my friend confessed upon seeing my highlights, which rendered more polka dot than stripe when all was said and done. She went on to date my newly single ex-boyfriend approximately five minutes after we'd broken up. In the sage words of the Beastie Boys, sabotage? Perhaps, but that was the first and last time I attempted home hair color and few things have inspired me to give it Continue Reading [...]

Kim Kardashian And Kanye West's Vogue Cover

  It took me a while to process my feelings on this Kimye Vogue cover, I'll be honest. When my brother called me tonight earnestly wanting me to tell him why this was such a big deal; why he'd heard about it all day, the explanation didn't come immediately. "Because Vogue is an INSTITUTION," I explained. But that wasn't really the whole thing. "So it'd be like a porn star winning an Oscar?" "No, that's, like, a 10; this is more of an 8 on that scale," I reasoned. We went back and forth Continue Reading [...]

Feeling This Facial: Ling Skin Care

Union Square is an inferno of an area, but I brave it for two very special locations. The first being Amber's apartment, because obviously I love hanging out with her, plus she always offers me a Hint water and those are just so refreshing. The second is Ling Skin Care Spa on 12 East 16th Street because their zen rooms are such a peaceful escape from the city and their new Energy Lift Facial is just as refreshing, if not more (sorry, A!). Their newest treatment uses a combination of far-infrared Continue Reading [...]

CoverGirl Bombshell Volume By Lashblast Mascara Review

Official Mascara Correspondent Ashleigh Ciucci test-drives CoverGirl Bombshell Volume Mascara this week. Here, her review, in her words.  I can jump to conclusions from time to time so I initially thought this mascara was two mascaras in one tube.  I applied the side marked "1" and was thoroughly unimpressed.  I applied the side marked "2' separately and was like, "Oh, this is nice."  Upon Googling for more deets, I discovered that side 1 is the volumizing base coat and side 2 is the intensifying Continue Reading [...]
