Musings of a Muse

Who’s an EOS Lip Balm fan?

I am, I am! I love them!

They remind me of one of my favorite releases from Lancome, The Mystery Game. Remember that one? The collection featured one of Lancome’s best products ever, one I miss very dearly, Baume Baiser! This was a marshmallow flavored lip sphere that hydrated lips beautifully. I used mine all up and I yearn for Lancome to bring it back le sigh.

EOS Lip Balms are created in the same shape plus compared to Lancome’s Baume Baiser they are heaps cheaper.

For Spring, EOS has two new limited edition flavors to indulge in, packaged together at a low price.

Take a look!

Is it time to change your brush head yet?

I believe mine is heading into 3 months now so I’m about ready!

If you’re ready now or you will be soon you might want to check out the new Clarisonic Deep Pore Cleansing Brush Head.

A deep cleaning brush head for the Clarisonic Skincare System.

Clarisonic designed this brush head to give a deep clean to oily skin with larger pores but most importantly for hard to reach areas of the face like the crevassas around the nose.

My skin is typically dry with no pores but I still want this brush as I always have issues getting my brush to work around my nose area plus who doesn’t want a deeper clean?

The brush is available now from both www.Sephora.com and www.clarisonic.com

Asian culture is very near and dear to my heart.

When the quake and tsunami hit Japan I felt so incredibly worried since I consider the friends I have there extended family. I was grief stricken and heartbroken when images started appearing on the news and Internet.

I’ve since donated funds to Japan but I wish I could more do so much more.

In my heart, I know that the people of Japan display true gaman in situations like this unlike any other culture I know. They are strong, patience souls who will rebuild and endure.

Another thing near and dear to my heart is Lush Cosmetics who have stepped in to support local organizations in Japan. These groups are working to rebuild affected areas and support Japanese citizens, some of whom are members of the Lush family.

To aid in the relief effort, Lush Cosmetics are selling limited edition products with 100% of the proceeds going to various Japanese charities.

The Rising Sun Soap ($5.95) resembles the Japanese flag and softens the skin with a sweet cherry fragrance. All proceeds from the soap will go directly to Peace Boat, a Japan-based non-profit organization. Since the earthquake, Peace Boat has been organizing volunteers, transporting aid and providing hot meals to those affected by the disaster.

Lush Rising Sun Soap will be available starting April 18th at your local Lush store and is available now as www.lushusa.com

From the bottom of my heart I hope you’ll display some support to the people and country of Japan by indulging in a slice or donating to another worthy cause.

Hey there.

I did a brief post about the Lancome Bronze Azure Collection for Summer 2011 yesterday but it was pretty incomplete so I hope you don’t mind if I take a second to repost the complete collection for your info.

I’m kinda loving it at the moment and though you might too so I thought another post was in order.

Here’s a look!
