Nicolle Westlund

There are few things in life Nicolle likes better than tooling around on Twitter and Google to research a new clean beauty product – unless she also gets to write about it. On a quest to find the combination of products that don’t cause cancer or give her an allergic reaction, she can’t wait to share her beauty and fashion tips with just about anyone who will listen.

Why do you write? “I write because life never works in retrospect. You can’t control life; at least you can control your version.” – Jon Winokur

Who would you most like to co-star in a movie with? It’s a tie between Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Adam Brody. Or Zooey Deschanel, on whom I have a girl crush.

Don’t ever: Try to dye your hair a cool brunet shade after you’ve just had it dyed blonde. It will turn a hideous shade of army green.

My favorite place in the Twin Cities is: The Stone Arch Bridge. The Twin Cities don’t get more picturesque than that.

I have an unhealthy obsession with: Lip balm. I buy it obsessive-compulsively. I currently have six different kinds in my purse.

You should probably know that I: Immediately judge people who use “every day” and “everyday” interchangeably. There are some grammar mistakes for which I have no patience.

When I was a kid I used to… Sleep on top of my bed covers so I wouldn’t have to make my bed in the morning. GENIUS.

Reality TV is… Not as good as “Gilmore Girls.” Unless it’s “So You Think You Can Dance.”

I can’t live without… Avocadoes. They’re so good. Plus, then you can make guacamole.

How do you feel about morning people? I want to stab them in the eye with a plastic spork.
