 Just in Time for St. Paddy's Day, a Prettier Shade of Green
by Carolyn Brundage
St. Patrick's Day will have many indulging in corned beef and green beer come Wednesday, but I'd be neglecting my job of keeping you gorgeous if I didn't point out that red meat and alcohol aren't exactly cornerstones on the path to pretty.
No need to imbibe, dolls, I've rounded up a few of my favorite eco-friendly beauty products sure to keep you "green" in a pinch.
Organic Glam is an organic color collection from UK's The Organic Pharmacy. The line, which is free of artificial preservatives and fragrances, calls upon minerals, herbal extracts and antioxidants. I've personally been using the eye shadow palette in "nude," loose powder and Ultra Glossy Lip Plump in "honey sparkle" and recommend them all. The Lip Plump is short on petrochemicals, fragrances, colorants and preservatives - important since the average woman eats pounds of lipstick and gloss in a lifetime - but long on shine.

New PrettyCity Spot: Salon Nova in Milwaukee
Picture the dressing room space of Marilyn Monroe, and we think you may have an idea of the inspiration behind Salon Nova's decadent decor.
A new addition to Brady Street's eclectic offerings, this chic spot exudes old Hollywood glamour, touting beveled mirrors, sparkling chandeliers and a rich color palette of gold, silver, black and red.
Expert stylists may offer up the hautest in hair care, but this salon does double duty as a full service spa. Luxe spa treatments abound within the boudoir-like walls of this second level destination. Offerings include relaxing massage therapies, glotherapeutics skin care treatments, waxing, polished hands and feet as well as Medical Spa treatments, Human Hair Extensions (keratin bonding) and Eyelash Extensions, of which one of the owners, Nova, is renowned for his expertise (He doesn't like to brag, so we will: Nova is the educator to many local, and national spots who offer this hard-to-find beauty addiction, even heading his own line, The Liquifan Eyelash Extension System).
Plus, Milwaukee Pretties enjoy 25% off any one Spa or Salon treatment or service with the exclusive PrettyCity.com invitation.
Salon Nova is located at 1437 E. Brady St. in Milwaukee. Phone: (414) 455-1079

 Bound & Bitten
Get all wrapped up in Spring's hottest chains
This spring, accessories continue to take over fashion, making last season's basic white tee new again. With multi-chain necklaces leading the charge, little black dresses and pastel tanks alike become of-the-moment bound in layers upon layers of silver, gold, pearls, charms and the like. Our PC readers have already told us they're equally likely to pick up a beauty product at a high end beauty boutique as they are at the drugstore. And when it comes to style, your M.O. is much the same-you mix affordable pieces with luxury must haves, saving sometimes and splurging others. Shop on. Read the article... | |
