Dear Amy, I have recently decided that: A – I am getting old B – My skin has always sucked C – Well, I want better skin now – that’s all. I’ve never had much of a “skin care routine.” I have been using random…
Dearest Amalah, I work an irregular schedule, with shifts ranging anywhere from 7 AM to 11 PM, with a 30 minute commute. I just cannot bring myself to wake up early enough to shower in the morning. My hair is long-ish and extremely thick and…
It’s the most. Wonderful time. Of the year!
When you’re looking for the perfect little something for the mother-to-be.
The conference was awesome with lots of excitement and surprises to be had. It was the perfect balance of professional and personal. Read on.
So after the flurry of cocktail-dress discussions, I’ve gotten a couple emails asking to see pictures of MY little black dress. Which has not been outside of the back of my closet since January 2006. That was the last time Jason’s company threw a big…
Hey Amy! I’m going to Vegas baby! Which – more importantly – means, I’m going to Sephora baby! Now you may think, yeah, and? Perhaps you don’t realize the good life you live being in the vicinity of actual stores that sell useful, beloved –…
Hi Amy, You’re awesome. Your readers are awesome. Google has failed me. Or maybe I’m not qualified to use Google. So I’m turning to you and your brilliant readers. I have a friend who checked into a mental health facility over the weekend. I want…

Flashback Friday is an occasional feature where I test out products I used ages and ages ago to see if they are as good (or as bad!) as I remember. I should start this one off by admitting that I never used before, but I…
Ah, summer. The season for pedicures, natural highlights and bronzed skin. And flat, droopy-ass hair. If your hair is anything like mine, you know what I’m talking about. Your hair goes totally splat at the slightest whiff of humidity. You leave the house with a…
Hi Amy! I decided, somewhat randomly, at the beginning of July to start a program of Improving Myself, with a goal of adding one new thing to my routine every two weeks that is good for me in some way. First it was flossing (surprisingly…
I remember when I was a child my grandmother had certain programs on television that she liked to watch. She referred to them as her “shows.”Â
Dearest Wise and Wonderful Amalah, I am writing to you in desperation from the other side of the world – Sydney, Australia to be exact. On January 1st 2008 (as in less than month away) I am traveling to Atlantic City, and will be there…
Amalah shares her favorites sunscreen choices for sensitive skin, just in time for summer.
Dear Amalah, OK, this is driving me crazy, and I figure if anyone can find out this answer you can. I used to just use whatever makeup and moisturizers worked well for me. But, then, about two years ago, I started hearing about how bad…
(Previously: The Hot List of Six Months Or So Ago) I was hoping to mix the Hot List up a little more this go-round, but alas, I appear to be in a rut. But it’s such a pretty rut! Oh, rut, your skin is so…
Dear Amalah, Lately, I have been having serious issues with my hair. It’s always been the main thing I spend my time on, beauty-wise, and that time used to pay off. For most of my life, I’ve taken great care of my hair, and subsequently…
