Bluebonnets are starting to dot the fields here in Texas, announcing the arrival of spring with their violet blue flower spikes.
Just a few days before the official start of spring, I chatted with Kari Hawker Diaz, host of KUTV’s “Fresh Living” in Salt Lake City, about some of the beauty products we should all stock up on to get ready for the new season.
As a collective, we tend to make a huge deal about Valentine’s Day, a holiday meant to celebrate affection-filled relationships with others — particularly spouses and life partners, significant others, paramours, and crushes.
Every season presents its own set of beauty challenges, but winter can be particularly brutal.
Whether you’re spending the holidays at home with your immediate family members, attending Zoom parties with friends and family, having socially distanced get-togethers in your backyard, or taking the littles on outings to check out holiday lighting displays, you always want to look as glamorous as you would have in years past.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas so, to make sure you fulfill all your Santa duties with panache this year, I have some gift ideas that are sure to please everyone on your list!
There’s always a new “it” ingredient in the beauty space — whether it’s nutrient-dense superfoods like açai, matcha, chia seeds, quinoa, goji berry, and turmeric, or a more complex-sounding active such as ceramides, bakuchiol, retinol, nianicamide, or panthenol.

Today marks the official start of the fall season — and, while you may already be sipping on gingerbread lattes, baking pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, and hanging up harvest-themed wreaths replete with dried wheat stalks, faux pumpkins, pine cones, the truth is we’re still slowly tiptoeing our way into sweater weather.
