Getting Red Carpet Ready and the Grammy's TONIGHT.

 

Will you be watching the Grammy's tonight? I was invited to a few Grammy viewing parties. I'm sad that I can't be there in NYC with them. :( I will be following along! You can too. Chat live with @COVERGIRL, @herbalessences and @OlayUS on Twitter and make sure you use the hash tag #grammyglam to join in all the fun.

That brings me to think about "Awards Season". It is definitely in full swing. With the Golden Globe Awards a few weeks ago (see the looks of our favorite celebs), the SAG Awards, the Academy Awards coming up in a few weeks, and the Grammy's tonight; women are gearing up for their time in the spotlight. Did you know that over 16,000 will attend at least one of the top five award shows this year alone? Think of all the beauty products that these women are using. I can't even comprehend how much lipstick, mascara, hairspray, etc. is used. Not to mention the things we take for granted like shampoo, body wash and deodorant. I am betting it is a ton of product.

The beauty brains over at P&G Beauty actually pulled together a ton of information. They've told me that there will be more than 100,000 lipstick applications, at least 328 sticks of deodorant used and more than 170 bottles of body wash lathered in order to get our favorite beauties ready for the shows! Crazy right?

Out just in time for, you guessed it, Valentine's Day; these beauties will have your lips, tips and cheeks in the shades of color that simply say love.

I love pink and red together— it’s a very modern mix.” –Bobbi Brown
