Alexander Koch: Under the Dome & Teen Choice Awards?

Hey ya!
I'm busy at SXSW V2V, but I was definitely watching the 2013 Teen Choice Awards last night and will not be missing Under the Dome tonight!

Alexander Koch plays Junior and he's a real creep on the show Under the Dome yet in real life he is just a cutie!

Not a whole lotta fashion sense in this photo, but then again, we can't all afford a stylist all the time.

What I am loving is his wavy locks and I'm thinking that Mr. Koch keeps his locks in perfect volume controlld waves with something like Ouidad Clear Control Pomade.










 It retails for about $25, and is available at www.ouidad.com

I'm loving it in my wavy hair and I'm loving watching Alexander Koch as Junior on Under the Dome. Catch me live tweeting tonight! @Cherelynn on Twitter!

Clear Control Pomade is a unique, water-soluble finishing aid, packed with conditioners and humectants to calm frizzy, fly-away hair and seal in beneficial moisturizers. By blending proteins with holding polymers to remove the stiff feeling common to styling products, the result is a finishing formula that leaves hair soft and shiny. Use with Ouidad's styling gels for added hold and lustrous shine - or as a finishing touch to define curls after gels have set.

Ingredients:

Water (Aqua), Mineral Oil, Oleth-20, Oleth-5, Glycerin, Glycereth-26, Dicaprylyl Maleate, Polysorbate 80, Acetylated Lanolin Alcohol, Benzophenone-4, Cetyl Acetate, DEA-Oleth-3 Phosphate, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothiazolinone, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance.

 Hello Gorgeous!
Are you getting ready to watch the 2013 Teen Choice Awards? Who are you voting for? Here is the cast of Pretty Little Liars (someone give those girls a cheeseburger stat!) and look at the good skin. Genes? Maybe. Accident? Not likely. Great skincare routine? You betcha!

To get some great looking blemish free skin, try Murad acne system.



I know many of you teens may be getting ready for BTS-back to school and Murad Acne can help, though please get started on a system now so when the class bell rings you will be clear skinned and ready to succeed!

I love this Clarifying Mask from Murad, it's easy to use and effective too!


What it is:
A weekly treatment for acne-prone skin featuring a natural, clay-based formula to reduce irritation and minimize breakouts.

What it is formulated to do:
Clarifying Mask absorbs pore clogging dirt and oil as it draws out impurities. Its natural, clay-based formula reduces irritation and minimizes breakouts while sulfur decreases acne’s severity as it encourages skin to clear. Zinc oxide and licorice root extract work together to soothe, comfort, and calm skin. Kolin clay regulates oil production and diminishes shine. The must-have mask is an excellent treatment to help relieve both redness and breakouts as part of Dr. Murad’s Inclusive Health® system of care.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Sulfates
- Phthalates

What else you need to know:
This product is scientifically proven, dermatologist developed, and tested on people, not animals.

6 Healthy Swaps for Your Favorite Treats

Swap your go-to stress sweets for these tweaked treats

This is a TotalBeauty.com Diet article If you're anything like us, when the stress hits, you're willing to cut across four lanes of traffic and make an illegal U-turn in pursuit of a Snickers bar. On the other hand, we're just as likely to reward ourselves with a Twinkie (or billion calorie pasta dinner) come a job promotion, birthday, or celebratory outing. Between all of the highs and lows, it's hard to find an excuse not to indulge. The problem: This roller-coaster diet can take its toll on your health, not to mention your waistline. Check out these simple ingredient swaps (think: coconut oil in place of vegetable oil) so you can have your cake and eat it too...without the crazy blood-sugar spikes. See healthy treats

Teen Choice Awards 2013: who are you voting for? Under the Dome?

 Hi ya Gorgeous!
Wow-does everything happen at once or what? It is "BTS" Back to School, as well as a lead into the beginning of award show season. Yeah.

So the Teen Choice Awards are coming up this Sunday August 11th and I find it tongue in cheeky fun that my fave summer show "Under the Dome" is nominated!



 Mike Vogel plays Dale "Barbie" Barbara and as of last episode seems to have a heating up romance going with Julia, and I'm  still not sure if he really killed her husband or not? Guess I'll have to wait and see!




Barbie always has great hair, even for being in the dome, I suspect he uses something like Texture Taffy from Ouidad?

I used this on my son today for his first day back to school as a 3rd grader. Wow, times sure have changed. The Ouidad Texture Taffy makes a light hold for piecy styles with an intoxicating scent. Those seven year old girls better keep their hands and noses to themselves when it comes to my son!

Now here is a list of who else is nominated for a Teen Choice Award! Enjoy!
