About this Mama...


This isn't your typical beauty blog.

Mothers have a new understanding and a new appreciation of beauty. We now know that beauty is beyond superficial, that our bodies have a purpose -- but we're still women; We need confidence and attention. And we deserve it.

As for me:
  • As a first-time mom, a newlywed, a full-time staff writer and a freelance writer, I know how hard it is to switch from Mom-mode to bedroom-mode to office-mode.
  • As a young mom, I'll still rock skinny jeans and heels -- but have to check for spit-up and cereal stains before leaving the house.
  • From my time working for a magazine's beauty department, I've tested thousands of products and gained countless streamlining tips. I understand what works and what doesn't.
Also, check out my other sites:
  • Mama Never Said - a personal blog about all the things I never knew -- or didn't understand -- before becoming a mother, in the hopes of presenting an honest, open depiction of what really happens to your body, your emotions, your lifestyle, and your sanity.
  • Mama Never Knew - A news source for parents: New legislation, tax incentives, news stories, pop culture, etc.
  • Mama Never Wrote - A literary parenting site for an artistic outlook and outlet. Please visit the site for submission guidelines.
