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!

October is an amazing month where temperatures begin to cool. you begin thinking of the holidays and so much more. But this month is also about Breast Cancer Awareness Month as well. Although various companies support this ongoing effort, October is a time where you hear about what companies are doing in terms of awareness and research. On this site we also have the Pink Lounge where we will continue to highlight products that you can purchase in order to support the cause and within this post, purchasing these items assist Breast Cancer Organizations. Tan in a Can from Model Co (you could also win one of these during our giveaway) is an item that you can purchase. While you stay golden, portions of the sale of this item will support someone else. In addition, Therapy Systems Gentle Scrub is also apart of this fight as well. Keep an eye out for these items and more so that you ensure that you make your dollars count.
