Who's New On Our Blog Roll? And Welcome to Our 1,000th Follower, 花歩歩!!

We've added a few more beauty blogs to our blogroll. Welcome to:

Scandalous Beauty
Yummy 411
A Beautyful Sentiment

Please check out their work. Thanks to Miss Whoever You Are for always turning me on to the blogs I've somehow missed...

We've added two new fashion blogs as well. Did you read "Logged On," the big March American Vogue story by Mark Holgate about the top bloggers and vloggers? It features Michelle Phan, our new video makeup artist, as well as some other folks we already love (Todd Selby, Bryan Boy, Tommy Ton). But we were missing Catherine Kallon of the Red Carpet Fashion Awards and Hanneli Mustaparta of Hanneli.com. So welcome to them too!

One more housekeeping issues. Despite my New Year's resolution to get more organized about blog giveaways, I've failed for various reasons. :(

But I'm not giving up. If some of you haven't gotten your giveaway yet, please be patient. We were bombarded with intern resumes on our Gmail account, so I think we missed some giveaway winner emails. Speaking of interns, thank you to everyone who sent his or her resume to us. We truly appreciate your interest.

Lastly, thank you to our 1,000th follower, 花歩歩! The blog is almost one-year old, so I'm very excited about this milestone.

A Little Sumthin for Them, A Little Sumthin for You (It's a Giveaway Alert, My Beauties!)

Does it drive you crazy when stores start promoting the holidays before Halloween even begins? I don't want to see Christmas ornaments and candy corn or tinsel and turkey at the same time. But then there are lots of organized people who don't mind because they like to get their shopping done early.

Whether you're an organized holiday shopper or not, you'll enjoy our Lancome.com holiday gift guide. Why? Because it features options at lots of different price points and four of our favorite people: designer Chris Benz, mua Daniel Martin, spokesmodel Arlenis and sweet sweet Evelyn Iocolano, who created the Lollipop Theater Network charity. Each picked a few Lancome products that would make perfects gifts for their friends, family and other loved ones.

Make sure to take a look. You might get some cute ideas for stocking stuffers or little gifts or even, to quote fashion blogger Bryan Boy, a little sumthin sumthin for yourself. Let's do a fun giveaway. Tell us what gift you'd like to get right now and we'll pick one post at random to win all the gifts on Arlenis, Chris, Daniel or Evelyn's page. (Just tell us which page is your fave.) Please post by Sunday night. Good luck!
