Josie Maran Cosmetics has arrived!

I wonder if it’s just a coincidence that the word “business” appears to be rooted in the word “BUSY” – because business has had me nothing but busy these days. Product has finally arrived and we’re soon shipping to Barneys. Yaaay! Finally, it’s all happening. Our full website and online store www.josiemarancosmetics.com will launch next week and we’ll be on counter first week of October. I really can’t wait for the line to be available and to hear what everyone thinks about it.

Here’s one of our official product shots, as well as a snapshot of me in front of the new Barneys store that just opened this week in San Francisco. It’s such a fun experience to return to the Bay Area where I grew up and be part of the new Barneys opening.

Ahhh, and of course, don’t forget to catch me doing the fox trot when the new season of “Dancing with the Stars” premieres live this Monday, September 24, on ABC. You can vote 11 times. So, don’t forget to vote 11 times for JOSIE & ALEC because I want all of you to be just as busy as me!

Woohoo - all the hard work you put in is about to pay off. I didn't know you were in SF this week, are you still here? Are you doing an event at Barneys? It would be great to see you.

Good job dancing tonight, you looked fabulous. I can't imagine how hard it is. You got all my votes, Good Luck.

[Superlex]

Hi Josie!
I thought you did an amazing job on DWTS. For someone who has never dance ballroom dancing before you rocked it.
A huge applause for shaking your best for all of us mortals.

Keep on rocking the dance floor my dear!

PEACE 'n LOVE...

[Superlex]

I will vote a thousand times for you...and I mean that literally!

[Anna]

Hey Josie,
A shout out from an old Casti classmate. I think you were wonderful last night and you looked stunning! (That old judge just missed his 5:00 prune juice cocktail) We all sent our votes in from "back home." And your cosmetics line looks great-can't wait to try it out. Hooray for you and good luck-- We will keep watching and voting and you keep shaking your boo-tay!

[Christie]

Hi Josie,

I think you know my Aunt Joann H. We watched you on Dancing with the stars last night, You were amazing! I voted for you!!!! I wish you the best of luck! -Christie

[Jun]

Hey Josie, watched the show last night. You had all my votes. I thought you did great. You were definitely the most beautiful one by far. Congrats on your makeup line!

[Jen]

I agree you were amazing! I thought the judges were a bit tough on you:( I thought you did better than Wayne Newton, your choreography was much more involved!
You have my support, and of course- votes!

[Superlex]

Josie, I am sad that you got eliminated on DWTS. You took it like a PRO and that to me is a TRUE DANCER. Best of luck with everything else that you do in life.

[Grace]

Hi Josie!

I voted for you. I tought you were the most beautiful and graceful and the judges were unnecesarily meant to you. You were definitely better than Wayne, Marie, the boxer and Mark Cuban so I was shocked you were eliminated.

Good luck with the cosmetics. Did you ever meet Anita Roddick? She just passed away a couple of weeks ago. She was the founder of The Body Shop and they have eco-friendly make up also. I love her products so much especially because they aren't tested on animals and are made with Community trade ingredients.

[Nat]

I'm very disappointed. I really wanted to see you in the next episode DWTS. In my opinion, you were amazing. So keep your head up high!

[Bruce]

I never watched Dancing with the Stars, however since Josie was going to be on the show it was a must for me to watch. However, I probably won't be tuning in much, anymore, since Josie was elimated. Josie you did a great job to be very proud of yourself; you weren't given a chance to prove yourself, which I know you would have if you were given the chance to do so. You are not only beautiful outside, but inside as well, which makes for a rare being. Good luck in all your endeavors in life in whatever you do.

[bonnbee]

I am very excited about the cosmetics, it is so hard to find non-toxic products that work well. Do you have a date that the website will launch for us to purchase?

[Em's mama]

Hi Sweetie. Well, you were robbed. But, I got such a kick out of your winks, smirks and pouts. You, gorgeful! Cannot wait to wear make-up now... Come to town, bring the babe!! E

[Lea]

Hi Josie!
I really can't wait to try out your new cosmetic line!!
Wishing u all the best and good luck!

[Eva]

Hey there! I've been thinking, can I find your cosmetics anywhere in Asia, say in Singapore? Can wait to try it.

[amy]

Congrats Josie, I'm so anxious to place an order and try ur cosmetics. Best of luck.
Hugs,
amy
