COSMETIC

Hi there! I’m Jessica, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).

On top of everything else — the fabulousness, felines and fun — you’ll find a vibrant community here and some of the nicest people (and cats) online. Your comments aren’t just welcome; they’re adored (more than 470,000 reader comments to date).
