We last caught up with Lisa Potter in March, when the editor at DailyMail.com and TV correspondent shared her career path, beauty philosophy (skincare is everything!), and how she leans into self care. For the winter season, we asked the oh-so-chic Lisa how she plans to tackle her holiday gift list and the changes she makes to her routine to ensure she stays hydrated and glowing.  Gifting beauty products can be tricky - do you have any suggestions for products that are always a hit?  Gift giving is sort of like an art form, because beauty products can be quite individually tailored preferences and...

Your guide to the best local perfumes. I don’t think I’m alone in feeling smug when someone tells me that I smell good.

This Christmas we’re going to be prepared. We’re ready to countdown the days until the main event with a beauty advent calendar and the nostalgic scent of Christmas scented candles in the air. We’re set to decorate our tables with Christmas beauty crackers that offer more than just a slinky and a joke. We’re going to stuff ourselves silly with Christmas turkey and ham and give the best gifts we’ve ever given. We’ve even lined up the red lipstick we’re going to crack open especially for the big day. We’re also (obviously) going to prep a personal Christmas wishlist that’s packed to the hilt with all manner of beauty-related fun (to our potential...

Has there ever been a higher compliment than “Wow, you smell so good”? Probably, but if we’re being honest with ourselves it always makes us walk a little taller post-flattery. The art of olfactory has the power to revert us back to distant memories, use us as conduits of magnetism, and draw in the object of our desire when combined with our own body chemistry (pheromones anyone?).  Not to mention, a good perfume just makes us feel sexy all on its own. Cueing in all notes, from sultry to dainty and woodsy to floral, we bring you our top fragrance...
