My Favorite Heath Moment
My thoughts and prayers are with Heath
Ledger's family and friends — particularly his
two-year-old daughter, Matilda. In memory of the
young star, I'd like to share my favorite Heath movie
moment — from 1999's Ten Things I Hate About
You, when many of us first started crushing on
him.
The Fairest Nano of Them All...
Did you see the pretty new nano,
just announced
today? Yum, right?
The Spice Girls are in
talks with L'Oréal to become new spice-people.

Here, the 80th Annual Academy Awards nominee list. I'm sick of that
Juno chick already. It's like, we get
it... you'll never let fame get to your
head. And you're proud to be from good ol'
Halifax. You're so chill, I can't even take it.
A movie about Mac fanatics? Shut up. (MacHeadstheMovie.com)
I've totally been wondering
where Adnan Ghalib's alleged wife has been hiding.
Apparently, she's been waiting for Brit to give him
the boot so she could kick him while he's down.
(People)
Speaking of Brit... I know this is old
news... but can someone please tell me what's up with
the Eliza Doolittle impression? I really don't get
it. And where does Britney go when Eliza comes out to
play? (TMZ)
The Death of Bohemia is Upon Us
Above: Me, in happier days...
Yesterday was a good day.
I, along with my fellow Mac enthusiasts, spent the
morning watching the clock until the keynote... and
spent the rest of the day
walking on air.
Today? Not a good day.
I woke up to the surreal news that, on June 1st,
Rent will officially end its
run at the Nederlander Theater. I am so sad.
Like, need a new word for sad kind of sad.

New Skin Resolutions
Tarte's 'We Wish You Health' Skinvigorating™
Gift Set, $30,
available at TarteCosmetics.com,
makes it a cinch to honor your skin care promises—and
keep them— well into '08.
Last week, the
Times health blog referenced
a poll that said one-third of people who make
New Year's resolutions aren't truly committed to
their goals, and will most likely break them
before February. The obvious answer to why this
is: we set our standards unrealistically high,
make our proclamations too broad and subsequently
let ourselves down and get discouraged when we
don't see results. Bettering yourself shouldn't be
this stressful... should it?
I never like to make New Years resolutions, and if I
do, I never make them out loud. (Who needs
your lunch buddy calling you out when you order a
cream-based soup instead of vegetable? No thanks.)
This year—since it's YBLAG's first New Year's
celebration— I've decided to make a resolution to be
extra good to my skin. Read: Wash, tone, treat
every morning, every night, and
totally eliminate all sun worshipping. Gulp. Ouch.
Omg.
I know it sounds easy enough, but I've been known to
fall asleep with a full face of makeup (lazy!) and
bask in the sun with minimal SPF in the summertime
(dummy!).
As you can imagine, I was psyched to discover the
above gift set from Tarte while I was looking through
my Christmas goodies. It has four of the brands star
makeup products—each with an awesome skin care
benefit. My absolute favorite part is the Clean Slate
Primer, which hydrates my mug with avocado oil while
keeping it calm and healthy with echinacea, rosemary
and hibiscus oils. I'm obsessed.
The gift set is a perfect companion to my stellar skin products, and it's
making my New Years resolution totally easy to
stick to. I'll let you know how it goes.
(...As if I'd tell you if I break it
before February.)
