I want to try this! It reminds me of the brush that is used in my dermatologist’s clinic whenever I go there for a deep cleaning! At $195 for a Clarisonic brush, that’s just about 10 facials from my dermatologist. Does that make money sense to you?

Here’s what Sephora has to say about one of their bestselling products!

What it is:
A professional-grade skincare brush.

What it is formulated to do:
From the creators of the Sonicare® toothbrush comes the Clarisonic® Skincare Brush. 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.

Here are some of the benefits this revolutionary skincare tool delivers:
- Removes makeup six times better than traditional methods.
- Clears pores and reduces the appearance of pore size.
- Cleanses so thoroughly that skincare products absorb better.
- Creates noticeably healthier looking skin.

What else you need to know:
Clarisonic should be used as part of a daily skincare regimen to provide smoother feeling and looking skin. Ideal for all skin types and used and recommended by leading dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons. Gentle enough to use for cleansing rosacea and sebborheic dermatitis.

Here’s the freebie I was telling you about!

One thing I’ve noticed about British and Japanese magazines is that they have a lot of freebies and inserts - from really useful stuff like a tube of lipstick or some other cosmetic, to get this, a See by Chloe tote!

The July 2009 issue of ViVi celebrates Hello Kitty’s 35th Anniversary with a sticker booklet of Hello Kitty colors! (Whatever that means, I can’t read Japanese, this was the only English text in the booklet, haha!)

More of what’s inside later!!!

Got the July issue…

And the freebie that came along with it was very interesting! Tell you all about it later!

Don’t laugh, but this label known for intimate anti-fungal creams is actually making a product that is great for the face! When my sister-in-law mentioned this, I thought it was just amusing. But apparently, there’s practically a cult following for this powder-gel among make-up mavens!

Then again, at less than $10 a tube, this drugstore brand makes a pretty darn great alternative to the more expensive make-up primers in the market today!

Let’s put it this way, the three pack sold in Amazon is out of stock now. It’s either there’s a lot of chafed thighs out there or people are really looking for cheaper ways to look pretty! Makes sense during these recessionary times!

Just some shameless plugging!

While the mere mention of the word patchouli conjures images of the hippy dippy 60s, Tom Ford works his magic once more by re-invigorating this scent with a dose of now!

According to Vogue UK,” Ford transformed patchouli with penetrating notes from white flowers peony, rose and jasmine to create a fresh yet distinctive eau de parfum.”

There was actually a huge ad on the Style section of the NY Times last Sunday announcing that the scent is now exclusively available at Saks Fifth Avenue. What do you think? Are you ready for some pathchouli lovin’?

I don’t know if this be a chewy kind of lip balm (just like with Nerds candy) but I’m thinking this will be quite good huh?

If you love chocolates and lip balm equally, why not have the best of both worlds with this…

Seriously! This is for real!!!

Well fine, it’s not edible, but hey chocolate Kisses flavored lip balm?! What couldn’t be better than this right?
