Nascar is popular because of the drivers who race, week after week, in hopes to not only win that week’s race, but to ultimately be crowned Nascar champ at the end of the season. But behind some of my favorite Nascar drivers is a supportive woman who are popular in their own right.

Beauty Review: QVC's Christmas Advent Calendar

It featured 24 hair, skin, or fragrance products from 21 different beauty brands. It contained sweet little surprises every day! Unbeknownst to the other, we each put on the […]
