Keep the parties going!!!

How are you all pretty ladies? Party party party at Christmas? Let's not let it stop, keep on partying!

Happy 2010!

While the make-up are drying up your skin, use this magical Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion with Pump. I first thought it would be oily (as it looks very thick textured), but actually it's more watery to oily. And VERY moisturising. Love it. Use it to replenish the water your skin needs, and then move on to the next party tonight!!

I remember the first skincare prodcts I bought when I went to France for exchange programme was from Yves Rocher. R.I.P. Mr Yves Rocher.

==========================================

Yves Rocher, founder of a world-wide cosmetics empire, died in Paris on December 26, 2009 at the age of 79.

"I confirm that he passed away this morning," said a spokesman without giving a cause of death.
