My picture for the week has a funny story behind it. Last weekend was ComicCon here in San Diego, and I happened to be downtown on the Friday night of ComicCon and thought I spotted Alexander Skarsgard walking down the street. This wouldn't be an unrealistic scenario since he was part of the True Blood panel earlier that day. So anyway, I rushed to grab my phone and snap a pic (I mean, who wouldn't, right?) but as you can see, he's not even in the shot. What's worse? It actually wasn't him--just another very tall blonde guy. Oh well.
The Lipstick League Question of the Week:
What’s your favorite skincare line?
G's Answer: As many of you might already know, I'm horrible when it comes to skincare. I don't use any fancy products and I don't have as many steps to my routine as I probably should. That said, I don't really have a favorite skincare line. I like certain products from a variety of lines (Alpha Hydrox, Neutrogena, St. Ives, L'Oreal, Olay) but I just can't pick one that I like above the others. Although if money (and shipping fees) weren't a factor, I KNOW I would have more products in my stash from Mario Badescu (love the Hyaluronic Eye Cream).
