Pamela King
A recently converted environmentalist, Pamela has spent the last couple years thinking about the impacts her makeup has on her body as well as the planet. Pamela spent her formative years giving and receiving makeovers in friends’ basements and concocting beauty potions in her bathroom “laboratory.” As a college student filling her spare time with unpaid internships, Pamela has overhauled her makeup bag so that it contains affordable and, for the most part, all-natural products she can feel good about using. Pamela tries to keep her face fresh and simple for classes and work during the day, saving the red (lead-free) lipstick for nighttime. When she is not searching for the perfect products, Pamela can be found reading a good book, catching up on the news or exploring the city of Boston. Her aim is to travel to every corner of the world, writing about her experiences as she goes.
Chelsea Pech
Chelsea is a lover of all that is fashion and beauty. But she has hours behind magazine covers, not in front of the mirror to prove it. A self-professed “low-maintenance kind of girl” and aspiring fashion writer, Chelsea likes to spend more time living her life than preparing for it. She believes looking good doesn’t need to take hours or empty your wallet. She likes finding the best products for the best prices and emulating celebrity and red carpet looks to her own style. Every girl likes to look beautiful and feel glamorous and Chelsea is no exception, even if that calls for a little splurge now and then.
Allison Giuffre
Some girls grow up with the dream of living out Cinderella’s fairytale. Others are more interested in finding out what kind of skincare regimen she follows. Meet Allison, a proud member of the latter. This girl’s been on the hunt for the holy grail of cosmetics since she could spell “oil-free.” She knows all products are definitely not created equal, but still believes that each one deserves a fair chance to strut its stuff. No matter how hopeless it might seem, you won’t see her give up on shampoo after the first wash. A fan of products that (and boyfriends who) follow through on promises, Allison admits she doesn’t always have as much time and energy as she’d like to devote to glamifying her lifestyle – but she’s determined to find products that work for her, instead of the other way around. The road to complexion perfection isn’t always gorgeous, but fasten your seatbelts, BX readers, because you can bet your favorite pair of ballerina flats that Allison will bring you along for the real ride.
Lauren DiLello
Let the knee-high stack of magazines on her bedroom floor speak for itself — Lauren has a fervor for fashion. Whether in department stores, boutiques or thrift shops, she is always on the prowl for the next fabulous piece and believes clothes should be just as spectacular as the woman inside them. As Mom always said, “When you look good, you feel good.” She thanks the fashion gods everyday for bringing leggings back and is obsessed with her sunglasses.
