ABOUT ME:

My name is Shelly and I’m a 41-year-old web geek that jumped off the deep end into the makeup and beauty world. Come along for the ride as I figure out which products work and look good on fair, dry skin that is starting to show the sins of its youth… fine lines, sun damage, enlarged pores, and all that good stuff.
