You now have a good excuse to think about Brad Pitt while you're in the shower -- the ecologically-minded A-lister is teaming up with Kiehl's Since 1851 to raise money for the JPF Eco System, a part of the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.

All the net profits from sales of Kiehl's Aloe Vera Biodegradable Liquid Body Cleanser will go to JPF Eco System. The cleanser, which will run $16.50 for a 6.8 ounce bottle, will be a permanent addition to the Kiehl's lineup and should bring in $1 million or more for the charity.

We've had moving on the brain lately. We're not sure if it's because we live in a college town and are starting to see the students creep back into town, with their cars overstuffed with bedspreads and bookshelves and beer, or because we moved fairly recently and are still feeling the effects (i.e. still can't find anything), but the fact of the matter is, we've been thinking about it.

And when we think about moving, we immediately think of housewarming parties. Trust us, we can turn just about anything into a party!

We've been known to skip that whole "wash your face before going to bed" more than once, despite with the resulting mascara modern art pillows.

Rather than switch to black sheets, we decided to try out these Neutrogena Ultra-Soft Eye Makeup Remover Pads, thinking that a novel product would inspire us, no matter how tired or you know, boozed up we might be.

The first thing we noticed is that the jar is telling the truth. They are both soft and large. Very large. So large that they were awkward to use under our eyes and it was impossible to swipe away wayward flecks of mascara without taking off all of our mascara and under eye concealer and starting over.

There was just more pad than we needed, even to clear off a heavy night of going out makeup. We even considered cutting them in half, to make them last longer and be less wasteful.

They work great, and they are super, super soft on our delicate eyes, but so far they haven't inspired us to be more diligent in our bedtime routine. We'll probably stick with the equally effective, smaller/less wasteful seeming, and less expensive Almay Oil Free Makeup Remover Pads we usually use the morning after.

We all like the idea of using natural ingredients, and those of us who garden probably feel even more strongly about it. Lisa Ludwigsen, who ran a school garden project for children at her local school, felt so strongly about it that she used some of the plants from the project to create a skincare and beauty line.

So last Thursday we found ourselves standing in blistering 80ish degree sunshine on the Santa Monica Pier. We had to wait in the corner between the coeds of USC and UCLA while they shouted "spirit" at each other. It was very peppy and just a bit intimidating.

Why were we there with rivals and cheerleaders? For Pinkapalooza, of course! Duh.

The first annual (or whenever) Pinkapalooza was thrown by the good people at Victoria's Secret Pink to introduce their new Pink Collegiate Collection (still no University of Arizona?!) to the masses. Fall Out Boy performed. It was what we in the biz call "a major event."

Chic and streamlined, tailored women's wear from Skaparinn is demure, as in modest, but with a bold, seductive quality. The collection's designer, Dusa, studied fashion design at the Vienna Applied Arts University, graduating in 2000.

She apprenticed with Jean-Charles de Castelbajac and Viktor & Rolf before founding Skaparinn, Icelandic for, "the creator". Although not yet available stateside, the Skaparinn online store launches in July. Or pop by the Skaparinn boutique at V/Skalholtsstig, in the 101 neighborhood, near Reykjavik's city center.

Do you have a man face? Most men do. It's a fact.

Gessato Face Treatment's cell regeneration complex is a lightweight serum to help keep that man face as boyish as possible. It provides protection for the neck and face, which is nice, but it is also an agent for active rejuvenation. It's kind of like the fountain of youth in a small pump.

There are a bunch of vitamins in the formula, as well as ingredients we have trouble spelling. Together they help rebuild the skin's complex defense system and smooth out wrinkles by naturally hydrating the face and neutralizing the actions of free radicals. Do we sound smart when we say stuff like that?

Gessato Face Treatment "improves skin tone and hones the neckline, reducing the unsightly effects of double chin." That alone is worth the purchase.

We've been using the serum for a few weeks now (as well the shaving treatment), and we've got to admit- it's good. Yes, we still act like we're James Bond when we call it 'serum' and sometimes we pretend it will self-destruct if we don't apply it in a downwards motion, but that's okay if we act a bit boyish, or face will back us up.

Do you have red bumps on your arms that you just can't seem to get rid of? If so, you're in good company. In fact, 50% of all adults have "chicken skin" arms, officially known as Keratosis Pilaris.

KP is completely harmless, but for those of us with the rough skin it can be a downer, especially during hot, summer weather. You want to wear sleeveless styles, but it's just one more thing to be self-conscious about.

There's no cure for KP, but there are treatments. Mainly it's a combination of exfoliating and moisturizing, with lotions that can do both being the obvious one-step solution. It's important to find one that you like, because you have to keep up the treatments. Like dandruff, it's a skin condition you can manage but not eradicate.

As we mentioned previously, Victoria's Secret Pink Collegiate Collection is all sorts of fun and spunk for the college set.

What we didn't mention previously is that you can be a part of the Pink action. This Thursday, July 17th, will be the first annual Pinkapalooza. It will be held on the Santa Monica pier from 5-10 p.m. and the public (that's where you come in) are welcome. Click here to print your pass.

Those in attendance will be able to compete in rivalry games between USC and UCLA, as well as be among the first to shop the new Pink Collegiate Collection. There will also be a free concert by Fall Out Boy.

The party will be hosted by the new (and first official) face of VS Pink Miss Behati Prinsloo. We will be sitting down with Behati for a little Q & A. and we thought it would be fun to take along some of your questions for the lovely young model.

If you have a question about VS Pink, modeling or something else (within reason) that you would like to ask Behati please leave it in the comment section. We'll pick the best (not that there is such a thing as a bad question) and ask Behati on Thursday- you know, when we sit down with her. Yes, we've been bragging about this to everyone.

We know, it's still summer, but before long school will be starting and Victoria's Secret wants you to be ready, hence the Pink Collegiate Collection.

Victoria's Secret describes PINK as "a fully articulated lifestyle collection for young women" and "includes 9 different items, including fleece pants, hoodies, panties, tees, and totes... available in approximately 375 stores, many of which are in close proximity to the universities in the program." Thanks to a partnership with The Collegiate Licensing Company there are 33 schools featured thus far and more (hello, Arizona?) will be added shortly.

Let us try to put this delicately. Have you ever been caught with "the greasies"? But without any time for a full on wash and blow dry? Don't feel bad, most of us have. A ponytail can get you out of a lot of situations, but sometimes you need a stronger solution. Like dry shampoo.

What? How can shampoo be dry? Well, mainly when they're made up of different kinds of powders -- rice, cornstarch, oats -- that absorb excess oil on your hair and scalp. It takes away the oil slick and the volume at your roots makes your hair seem fuller.

Dry shampoos also give your hair an awesome kind of friction, which helps keep pins in for big updos. In fact, several hair "experts" created blends to use on models at fashion shows where you don't have enough time to wash out one 'do before setting the next one. Smart marketers that they are, they packaged them up for the rest of us.

Of course you can use baby powder or plain old cornstarch, but they are harder to handle than a sprays and don't smell as nice as some of the products, which we showcase in the gallery.

To refer to Gessato's shaving treatment as shaving cream would be like calling gelato an ice cream. It ain't right.

Sure, gelato and ice cream are both made with milk and sugar, but... oh, sorry.

Gessato, as a company, is "Italian artisanship with modern formulations." This means that they make and market their products "in the United States with an Italian sensibility for time-hewn craftsmanship, quality and attention to detail."
