My daily regimen usually consists of the <a href="http://www.borba.com/product/535">BORBA: Age Defying Micro Diamond Cleanser</a>, <a href="http://www.borba.com/product/758">Elastin Fiber Concentrate</a>, <a href="http://www.borba.com/hd_illuminating_light_effects_serum/product/810">HD Illuminating Light Effects Serum</a>, <a href="http://www.borba.com/product/756">Orbital Eye Rejuvenator</a> and the <a href="http://www.borba.com/age_defying_advanced_recovery_creme/product/896">Age Defying Advanced Recovery Cream</a>. To get eye makeup off, I use the <a href="http://www.lancome-usa.com/skincare/eye-makeup-remover/bi-facil.htm">Lancome remover</a>. I also use the <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT179&amp;PRODUCT_ID=253&amp;QUERY=wipes">MAC Wipes</a> to get all the makeup off before my regimen. And of course sunscreen...usually <a href="http://kiehls.com/_us/_en/sun/index.aspx">Kiehl's</a> or <a href="http://www.dermalogica.com/us/search.html?q=sunscreen">Dermalogica</a>. Dermalogica also has a really great "<a href="http://www.dermalogica.com/us/products.html#/products/special-clearing-booster">special clearing booster</a>" for spot treatment on blemishes.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_V7lJdZi_T9A/SlGL_Vja9nI/AAAAAAAAONE/EBFC9iJV5e0/s1600-h/dermalogica+microfoliant.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 233px; height: 299px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_V7lJdZi_T9A/SlGL_Vja9nI/AAAAAAAAONE/EBFC9iJV5e0/s320/dermalogica+microfoliant.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355215352153962098" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q:</span> Is your regimen any different when you're filming?<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A: </span> It's a little more involved on set with hot towel treatments and <a href="http://dermalogica.com/us/products.html#/products/precleanse">Dermalogica precleanse</a> to get all that white makeup off. We use a lot Dermalogica products...I love the <a href="http://www.dermalogica.com/us/products.html#/products/daily-microfoliant">Microfoliant</a>!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q:</span> Do you like to wear makeup when not filming, or do you prefer to go natural?<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A: </span> I don't really wear foundation...I prefer tinted moisturizer if anything. Usually after the Borba process I don't need it - my skin is in pretty healthy shape. It's usually mascara, concealer and lip gloss.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q: </span>You recently cut your hair (and it looks great!). Was it for your role as "Alice", or something you wanted to do for yourself? Do you prefer it shorter or longer?<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A: </span> Thanks! I cut it to make my hair fit under the Alice wig properly. I didn't have to go quite so short but I figured it's the only time I would EVER do it. I'm a long hair girl... I've had long hair my whole life. It's cute short, but I'll grow it back out.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q: </span>In your opinion, what makes someone beautiful?<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A:</span> I think a lot of what makes someone beautiful is how a person presents themselves. I was talking to someone the other day about how I find French woman so beautiful... it's something they possess inherently. I feel like when someone has a zest for life they come off vibrant and beautiful.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_V7lJdZi_T9A/SlGFIhBgykI/AAAAAAAAOMs/PmYQwiOiH00/s1600-h/rosebud+salve.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_V7lJdZi_T9A/SlGFIhBgykI/AAAAAAAAOMs/PmYQwiOiH00/s200/rosebud+salve.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355207813270391362" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Q:</span> What are your favorite beauty products?<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A: </span> <a href="http://www.borba.com/">BORBA</a> (all of which I mentioned) and <a href="http://dermalogica.com/us/">Dermalogica</a>.

But I think I'll be able to find it in my heart to forgive <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/">MAC</a> for opening its lipglass lacquered trap a few months early.<br /><br />Turns out that the highly-anticipated <span style="font-weight: bold;">Style Black</span> collection will be released on my birthday. What makes this such a treat is that the collection will resurrect my favorite scrub of all time...like a phoenix rising from the ashes!<br /><br />Since last spring's limited edition <a href="http://spoiledpretty.blogspot.com/2008/05/mac-future-earth.html">Future Earth collection</a>, I've been rationing my Volcanic Ash Exfoliator like it was a bag of beans on a season of <span style="font-style: italic;">Survivor</span>. With no idea that MAC had intentions of bringing this beauty gem back from the dead, I've been reserving this primorial soup-esque scrub for special occasions. But now that I know I can stock up come September (you've never seen hoarding like the kind I'm gonna do this fall), I'm gonna indulge in a little Volcanic Ash scrub-a-dub on a weekly basis.<br /><br />Mark your calendars for September 24th, when these babies hit real and virtual shelves. Take it from me...you definitely don't wanna play the 'shoulda woulda coulda' game with this holy grail scrub.<br /><br />The Style Black collection also includes:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_V7lJdZi_T9A/SkmzTz2qUgI/AAAAAAAAOFM/XoRpduYYSzI/s1600-h/mac+style+black+collection.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_V7lJdZi_T9A/SkmzTz2qUgI/AAAAAAAAOFM/XoRpduYYSzI/s400/mac+style+black+collection.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353006785024905730" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Lipstick</span> ($14)<br />Black Knight: Creamy true black (Cremesheen)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Mattene</span> ($14.50)<br />Midnight Media: Dense matte black<br />Night Violet: Deep purple grape<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Glimmerglass</span> ($18)<br />Bling Black: Sheer black with gold pearl<br />Blackfire: Sheer black with pink purple pearl<br />Blackware: Creamy true black<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Mineralize Eye Shadows</span> ($19)<br />Cinderfella: Black with silver pearl<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span>Young Punk: Black with pink purple pearl<br />Gilt by Association: Black with gold bronze pearl<br />Blue Flame: Black with blue pearl<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Grease Paintstick</span> ($17.50)<br />Black: Intense black<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Penultimate Liner</span> ($16.50)<br />Rapidblack: True black<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Eye Kohl </span>($14.50)<br />Smolder: Intense black<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Cream Colour Base</span> ($16.50)<br />Black: Creamy true black<br />Bat Black: Burgundy black with pink pearl<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Nail Lacquer</span> ($11)<br />Nocturnelle: True black (cream)<br />Seriously Hip: Black with gold particle pearl (frost)<br />Baby Goth Girl: Black with pink and purple pearl (frost)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">#214 Short Shader Brush</span> ($23)<br />Short, rounded, double-chiseled brush with soft, natural bristles.

Put it in a pretty package, of course. I mean, how adorable are these new decorative vanity packs from <a href="http://qtips.com/">Q-tips</a>? They'll make your old blue box turn green with envy.<br /><br />One of these compact cubes houses 285 of the multipurpose swabs that you know and love. A drawer slides out, which allows easy access to the Q-tips (and, consequently, ups this product's cleverness and convenience quotient). It adds a pop of color to your bland bathroom countertop.
