Welcome!
Thank you for visiting!
Welcome. Bienvenue. Fáilte. Bienvenidos. Wilkommen. 欢迎.
First and foremost, I am wife to the best husband ever (really!) and mom to two tiny humans, who serve as a constant source of joy and self-betterment. I am also a beauty and travel fanatic and most recently founded a beauty company and ran it for three years. But my story begins way before that, of course.
After meeting my future husband in business school at UCLA, we both started our careers on opposite coasts – he moved to San Francisco and I moved to New York City. Both amazing places and I feel lucky I’ve been able to get to know both in such an intimate way. However, apparently I decided there was something to this relationship and transferred to SF after about a year. In SF, I continued my career in finance and started to explore the city by the bay. I loved many aspects of my job (especially the travel) but…
I always wanted to get back to my creative side, which I had stifled for years because it wasn’t “career-oriented”.
Fast forward a few years (and company pivots) later, and here I am, fulfilling my real quest – to bring practical, no-nonsense beauty advice to women like me.

Meet my loyal beauty advisers
For decades now, these lovely ladies (Mom – 59 & Grandma – 79) have inspired me to take care of my skin, from buying my first set of Proactiv (!!) when I was a teenager to saving all of those “Gifts with Purchase” from Lancôme, Clinique and Estée Lauder. Most of my favorite products today are new and emerging brands but the principles they taught me years ago still hold true.
- Invest in good skincare practices and products,
- Wash your face, every night, no matter what!
- Eye cream goes on with your ring finger (or pinky), and
- It’s your face, it is worth it.
