How I Handle My Dry Skin in Winter

I know I am not the only one who once the temps drop below 40 degrees becomes an itchy, scaly, sensitive mess. I’ve had my skin crack and even bleed in winter, and it seems so many different kinds of fabric will just irritate the heck out of me days after I wore them. But…

LUS Brands Gel Review

LUS Brands Gel Review

For most of my life, I thought I had difficult hair. It wouldn’t straighten easily, it didn’t hold a curl, it was fine and got greasy easily. I fought my tresses every morning and once I turned 40, my hair seemed thinner than ever and I was embarrassed by my visible scalp. My hairstylist encouraged…

The Curly Hair Community Intimidated the Hell Out of Me

When I was born, I had curly hair. That fact was forgotten as my hair grew and spent its early years in braids and pigtails. My mom would trim my hair; sometimes, I had bangs that always split down the middle and flipped up at the sides when it was humid, and sometimes I didn’t….

My Summer Skincare Routine

I am often asked about my skincare routine, and take it as a compliment. I tried Botox once back in 2018 but since then I haven’t done a single procedure or even a professional facial. I enjoy the sun more than I should but am consistent with SPF year-round. I really think what I eat…

An Honest SkinMedica Review

I have tried a lot of beauty products over the years. l’ve read the reviews, done the homework, and have learned that one’s Holy Grail is not another’s. Just because someone has great skin doesn’t mean their routine will work for you. But I read a lot of reviews from a lot of different people…

Reflecting on a Year as a Hair Biology Ambassador

For the past year, I have been a Hair Biology ambassador. What that means is I regularly shared my favorite Hair Biology products here on Wardrobe Oxygen and on Instagram, but what it also means is I had the opportunity to really get to know this line of haircare products, what makes it unique, but…

Living Proof Curl Collection Review

I have been a fan of Living Proof haircare for years. Before I embraced my natural curls, I swore by Living Proof’s Perfect Hair Day shampoo, conditioner, and dry shampoo for making my hair look and feel fantastic. Heck, I raved about the Living Proof dry shampoo way back in 2016! When I switched to…

The ’90s Are Back… Beauty Then and Now

I was scrolling through the New Arrivals of beauty at Nordstrom and see… hey I know that bottle of perfume. I know it very well, I wore the heck out of it… several decades ago. Estee Lauder’s ‘Pleasures’ was an Alison mainstay in the ’90s and early ’00s. Created in 1995, ‘Pleasures’ was a scent…
