Rock The VOTE: LOST On Money ?
If the word "LOST" randomly pops up on my blog, then you know that I am still in my LOST withdrawn stage, which will probably last for the days and weeks to come. Seriously, I felt that there is something missing in my life, now that I don't ever have another episode of the drama to look forward to. Well, this sure isn't the time for my usual long product reviews (because I am thinking about watching a recap marathon) so I thought I would do something short and fun.
This topic came up to me when I was talking about my recent purchase with my sister. Although I do set limits on how much I spend on a lipgloss or an eyeliner, I also like to pay good money for things that I really like. My philosophy has always been that expensive or not, it really depends on each person's preference. A $10 lipstick may be expensive to someone, but if I like it, I may think it is worth it. However, very often, when we have to empty out our wallets, it is just not easy no matter what the product is or how much we like it.
After almost a year of research and waiting?!, I finally caved in and bought the famous Clarionsonic Plus ($225) a few months ago.
More about the brand: From the creators of the Sonicare® toothbrush comes a new innovation—the Clarisonic Plus Skin Care System & Spot Therapy Kit. Sonic technology first changed the way we clean our teeth, it's now changing how we cleanse our skin. The sonic frequency moves Clarisonic's soft, gentle brush back and forth at more than 300 times per second, thoroughly clearing pores and skin surface.
I have to say that I am loving it, especially how it changed and improved my skin. I know such hefty price is not something for everyone out there, and it sure was not an easy choice for me either when I decided to purchase it. Well, ladies, I want to ask you the same question then. Would you pay big money for beauty gadgets?

Rock The VOTE: Earth Day 2010
First, I have to apologize for my lack of blogging lately because real life is a bit hectic right now. But, I took some time today to go green because April 22 is Earth Day.
Earth Day was founded 40 years ago with the goal to bring awareness and appreciation for our environment. Throughout the country (and many others), retailers launched special promotions to celebrate and support this meaningful day. Well, I hit the road early and took a trip to Origins with my mom because they were doing a special recycling campaign today where anyone who brings in an empty product container can receive a free full size face cleanser. They are also doing the campaign online where you can also receive a free full size product with any $30 or more purchase.

Rock The VOTE : Lipsticks Storage
Until recently, I never really had an efficient way to store my lippies. I either tried to lay them out in my drawer (which is a horrible idea because I had to look through every single one to find the color I want) or stand them up in a case (which is also a very bad move because some lipsticks don't have a flat bottom).
But these problems are now solved as I found a perfect solution from Makeup Alley, a custom lipsticks holders. What an awesome idea. It is a very easy way to store my lipsticks, and I don't have to scramble in the morning to look for them.

Rock The VOTE : New L’Occitane Makeup Line
With the unfortunate and shocking news released earlier this week that the luxury Japanese cosmetic brand, Shu Uemura, is getting pulled out of the U.S. market, it is true to say that many of us beauty addicts are really disappointed. Well girls, lighten up because I have a good news for you.
The French skincare brand is due to launch a new fragrance and makeup line Peony.

Rock The VOTE : Lauren Conrad Side Braid
The weather is definitely warming up because I actually sweated a bit when I was running around the town earlier today (meaning getting my MAC Liberty of London stuff). Finally, spring is approaching us. If you have been following fashion trends for the upcoming season, you would notice that many of them are re-promotions from some of the old trends from last year. And what can represent the classy spring beauty better than the famous side braid by Lauren Conrad (aka LC).
Her famous side braid starts as a traditional French braid and then becomes a regular braid that is pinned back to her ear. You can layer the braid on top of other hair or hide it under. Then you have it, a simple yet beautiful style.

Rock The VOTE : Kristen Stewart At The Runaways L.A. Premiere
Before the Twilight beauty returns as Bella Swan in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse later this year, Kristen Stewart (aka K.Stew) ditched her on screen lover Robert Pattinson for a role in the movie The Runaways, which is a biographical film based on the legendary all girl rock band in the 70s. Kristen plays Joan Jett, along with Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie. At the L.A. Premiere of the movie, Kristen exchanged her usually boyish and edgy fashion for a beautiful pink dress from the Doo.Ri Spring 2010 collection.
She went with a very soft and natural look. It really made her eye color pop and is a perfect match for her strong face. I think many of us would also appreciate her cute dress rather than her usually style. The bright pink color compliments her pale skin very well. Overall, I have to say that Kristen pulled this one nicely.
