A few weeks ago, I was asked to attend an amazing presentation at the Empire Hotel for Koh Gen Do. What I love about this line is that it's not only a makeup line but a skincare one as well. Based in Japan, this line emerged as a way to ensure that people were able to wear makeup without having scents and to be removed in an effortless way! This is especially important since many celebrities wear the line and their fans are men and woman as they need to be in front of the camera. In addition, with everyone moving to HD, it's essential to have makeup that works within this medium without looking like it's caked on!

I could talk about the makeup (which will be in a future post I swear) but I am focusing on the skincare collection. I love that this line is all natural. In a previous post I talked about the amazing organic cotton pads and also the special water that you could use to clean your face but it was watching the demonstration of today's items that made me really excited! I have always been a fan of facial cloths. I love that the soap is already in the washcloths; however, I find that you can't really get a good lather without really scrubbing your face. I have often wondered how healthy that is for your skin.

The Whipping Net is a fantastic tool that you can use with the Oriental Plant Soap. As opposed to scrubbing your face, you can rub your liquid or bar of soap against the net. By holding the net in both hands, you can rub the net against each other to create a lather. As you scrub and get a palms worth of foam you can place it to the side and after three lather amounts, you have what you need to scrub your face! I have to say that my face has felt so much cleaner after using this and I love that my face doesn't have to be abused in order to keep it clean! Take some time to check out more items from the skincare and also the makeup line as well!

Earth Week continues and you know, Kitten Lounge will continue to talk about various items within this category. The response for our Earth conscious items has been so great that it will actually get a day to itself once we get to the month of May! I love how people are sending items about sustainable lifestyles, food and so much more! But of course, we will never give up our beauty segments and I have a great one to share with you that I started using. Can I just say that I have been a Dove user for a number of years (I loved the face pads and use the deodarent but I have found something that I truly love)!

Koh Gen Do is a very sleek line of cosmetics, body products and more. I love that no animals are tested with this line and that it is comprised of raw ingredients. This is not only better for the environment but also for your skin. In addition to the benefits of the products, who doesn't love the packaging? Whether it's makeup or the skincare portion, I love that your bathroom turns into a personal spa simply because the packages have a boutique luxe look to them. I love the idea of having a home spa whether you have a routine or whether you simply decided to take some time for yourself just because.

What pieces do I like and what's considered on my "list" of items for this line? I love the Organic Cotton pads that are super soft! It's so plush that even when you're makeup is on, it doesn't leave fuzzies on your face. The Cleansing Spa Water is literally the best solution when it comes to ensuring that your face is clean and that all of your makeup has been removed. I love the fact that everything this beauty line uses is good for you and the environment at large. I do have a few of the cosmetics; however, I have yet to use them (I will have to try it this weekend when I go out). Find out more about the line by visiting the site and you can order online as well! Your face and body are the ultimate calling card so choose wisely  what brands you use and definitely consider Koh Gen Do!
