Rock Star Momma said what: Mariska Hargitay
Update:
A number of you guessed correctly that Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Mariska Hargitay (herself a celebrity baby) gave yesterday’s quote to Rock Star Momma, but the overwhelming majority guessed Marcia Cross (69%).
It must have been the part about the two heartbeats, or more! When Mariska said two heartbeats, she meant the pregnant woman’s and the one belonging to the baby inside of her, but perhaps some of you thought she was just referring to the baby’s heartbeats, or maybe the "more" part threw you off.
In any case, congrats to today’s lucky winners who will be receiving their own copy of Rock Star Momma: Ashley, Cassie, Doreen, Gina, Bess.

And now for today’s excerpt from the book…
PICTURE PERFECT
Want flawless skin?…You got it, and it’s easier than you think.Follow these easy steps and you’re on your way to a simply stunninglook: Keep in mind, I always recommend mineral makeup as there’s nodoubt that it’s better for your skin right now.
Concealers: Just what you’ll need to cover the dark spots from thedreaded "pregnancy mask." Also, great for covering up the dark circlesyou might have from restless nights. Yellow tones are perfect for this.And make sure that your concealer is always slightly lighter than yourfoundation. I love the stick kinds that are super easy to apply andmess-free.
Foundation: Foundation is perfect for evening out skin tones andjust like your concealer, yellow tones are best and the most naturallooking.
Powder: You’re gonna need a little of this to give your “base” somestaying power and to resist shine throughout the day. Stay away frompasty white tones and opt for a color closest to your natural color.Apply with a soft brush (I personally love and will only use TrishMcEvoy brushes) for a natural and soft look. Steer clear of thoseannoying puffs that are bound to make a mess in your vanity.
Blush: A blend is best. Make sure your blush gives you’re a hint ofcolor, but not so much that you look like the Raggedy Ann doll yourannoying aunt gave your unborn baby. Blend coral, pink, and plum toneswith a more natural shade for a simply sweet look.

There are no beauty tricks! Being pregnant gives you a glow that can’t be found in a bottle. But really, everyone is so busy staring at your belly, you’re lucky if they even look at your face. Embrace it all. The swollen feet, the rosy cheeks, the waddling, the endless bloody noses, the nausea, the constant hunger, and I mean constant, the moments at 4 a.m. when you would pay any amount of money just to find a comfortable position and go to sleep, the weird cravings, the complete failure of your abs… But living for nine months with two heartbeats (or more!) makes all of it so unbelievably worth it.
