It’s official: Pinterest is addicting, and so are all the millions of fantastic little blogs one is able to discover through the site every day. It really makes one feel like stepping up their blogging game to see so many talented writers and photographers out there doing their thing. One such blog that caught my eye recently is the brain child of Lauren Conrad and Company: thebeautydepartment.com. This pretty little website delivers legitimate beauty tips, with clever writing and gorgeous photography. Take a look at a few of my favorite tutorials below:

Lauren Conrad on how to get her perfectly paired eyebrows. This may be my favorite part about the website. Lauren is seen throughout writing, demonstrating, posing for pictures, but it doesn’t feel like she’s a snooty celebrity looking down at all you commoners. Instead, she comes across just like she did on The Hills: like a really chill chick who you could totally hang out with. Check out their website, and let us know what you think!
