Pomegranate and Green Tea Facial Peel

Last Updated on September 7, 2016 by Crunchy Betty

Twenty bucks says at least 15 of you haven't ever had a fresh pomegranate. Which is why I'm doing this. I want you to have a serious, hardcore reason to run out to the store and buy yourself one. No excuses. See, I've been waiting for this day. For months. Waiting for pomegranate to be in season, topped off in boxes in the produce department, all anxious for that special person to take them home. I could not WAIT to figure out a beauty treatment with pomegranates. (I mean, seriously, ... Continue Reading

Battle of the Homemade Glass Cleaners

Battle of the Homemade Glass Cleaners 2

Last year, I tried to make my own glass cleaner with black tea and vinegar. It was disastrous. A black film clung to my bathroom mirror for weeks. It looked like you were brushing your teeth in an old Bela Lugosi film. Finally, when I got tired of pretending I was a vampire, I scrubbed it down with some old dry newspaper (paper towels were like, "Um, no. You made this mess. YOU clean it up") and things got back to normal. Tip time: For extra-shiny, streak-free mirrors, do a final wipe ... Continue Reading

This is Not Beautiful, But It Could Be

Last Updated on September 7, 2016 by Crunchy Betty

This is difficult for me to write. Please understand that, first and foremost. It brings back old feelings, old hurts, and all kinds of vulnerability, and it scares me, because I'm never sure if my "old friend" will come back for a visit. I'm going to start somewhere in the middle. I've mentioned a time or two that I used to be a model. I was, with one of the biggest agencies in New York City. I was courted by three agencies, and sadly I think I chose the wrong one in the end. But ... Continue Reading

Nutmeg Microdermabrasion and Exfoliator

Last Updated on January 2, 2018 by Crunchy Betty

Nutmeg Microdermabrasion and Exfoliator 2

If you only put food on your face once this week, make it nutmeg. Really. I doubt I can even come close to how amazing this simple nutmeg microdermabrasion treatment is. In fact, I haven't been this excited about a beauty treatment since the Mocha-Frappuccino facial mask. This is that good. It's probably doubly better because you walk around with just the slightest scent of nutmeg for a few hours after you do it. So hopefully you're prepared for someone to lick you after. It ...

The Big Blog Post of Hangover Remedies

Last Updated on January 2, 2018 by Crunchy Betty

The Big Blog Post of Hangover Remedies 1

Since four people have asked me recently about hangover cures, the weekend's upon us and Halloween's right around the corner, I thought this would be a great time to touch on the dreaded hangover and a whole heap of remedies you can try to get yourself back up and at 'em. Sometimes you know you've overindulged and you're going to get a big kick in the head the next day. Other times, they sneak up on you. Take me for example--I can't drink two glasses of wine without feeling it in the ... Continue Reading

5 Little Tricks to Get Yourself Into a Great Mood

5 Little Tricks to Get Yourself Into a Great Mood 6

There's a child outside my window who's been crying for the last 10 minutes while her mother says, "Just be quiet" eighty-thousand times. Waaa. "Just be quiet."  Waaaaaah! "HUSH!" Waaaaaaaicecream! There's a lesson in this conveniently-timed crying spell. (Thank you, Universe, for coincidences.) The lesson is this: When you're in a bad mood, you can't tell yourself to just be quiet. Like that kid out there who just freakin' wants an ice cream cone, telling yourself to shut up when ... Continue Reading
