I’ve FALL-en for Lancôme’s newest mascara, Ôscillation.   A unique mascara that provides a 360-degree coat around each and every lash.   No less than 7,000 vibrations per minute will get lashes batting for sure. 

The development team was led by Jean-Louis Guéret, the designer of all Lancôme mascara brushes.  With an impressive resume of almost 400 mascara brushes under his belt, Jean-Louis is surely proud of the latest power mascara. 

In fact, the entire Lancôme team is proud and pleased as punch to offer a one-day only offer for the general public on Thursday July 31, 2008.  After that you’re at the mercy of auction profiteers until the Fall release. 

Ôscillation is Lancôme’s first vibrating mascara.   Suggested Retail Price is $34

When I first heard 90210 was coming back this fall I almost fainted!  I started watching 90210 in season 2 and never let it go, I even re-watched a year when we went to Japan because the military broadcasts were a year behind.  I’ve been waiting all these years for a reunion show that would update us on where the characters are in their “lives”.  You know how they used to do for Brady Bunch, remember when Jan almost got divorced? 

Whatever show I was watching mentioned Shannon Doherty, Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth would be on the show but the trailer on CW doesn’t show them at all.  It really irritates me when shows use a name (90210 in this case) and then say it’s going to be “sexier, cooler and more provocative”.  Is this a show for teens or adults and families?  I’m thankful I have soapnet and re-runs of 90210 when I need them. I haven’t been watching 90210 recently but when my kids are older it will be mandatory mom time.

Here are some of the girls in 90210 scenes, I was looking for Shannon Doherty in Little House on the Prairie but it’s really hard to find a fan clip or pics. No matter what I’m sure the new 90210 will be full of beautiful ladies, styles and makeup ideas.  ’till then…

How are you celebrating Earth Day?  I love the way corporations are celebrating and bringing awareness to Earth Day, even companies that encourage us to be green-er by searching for info online versus buying books, magazines, etc… are keeping it green.  Did you see Google’s homepage, cute, Yahoo is is all over the recycling end and youtube has a planet earth. 

If you find yourself with a few extra minutes this Earth Day, consider taking an action important to all beauty junkies.  50,000 sigs are being compiled to pressure Congress to force companies to list their ingredients and to stop the “trade secrets” excuse to put dangerous chemicals in the products we use.  The petition is on Cosmetics Database along with lots of other great(and a wee bit scary)  info.

The first 50 customers to return empty Kiehl’s bottles to a Kiehl’s free-standing store for recycling will receive a Kiehl’s reusable canvas tote bag that can be used to help reduce consumption of disposable shopping bags. 

One bag per customer, please!   Visit www.Kiehls.com to find the Kiehl’s free-standing store (or stores!) near you!  Think of me, there are none in Maine! 

Normally I would cry, stop the totes, but I am declaring this a good “free tote” because of the very down-to-earth look of them. I would definately use one of these to go grocery shopping thus saving plastic bags!
