Insider’s Obsessions: Laura DeLuisa LaRocca

Laura DeLuisa LaRocca is a force of nature in the world of beauty. You probably know her as one of the founders of DuWop Cosmetics, and we recently introduced you to her new skincare line called Rocca Skincare. With her love of beauty stemming from her days as a Hollywood hairstylist, she honed in on her entrepreneurial instincts and founded DuWop, which is now a $10 million dollar brand with a cult following; she recently handed the DuWop reins over to someone new, for a fresh voice and to grow the brand even more. When Laura was faced with total kidney failure not too long ago, she was introduced to the natural healing properties of 24K Gold. With her experience, she was inspired to create a natural line that utilized the power of gold and Rocca Skincare was born. We are truly inspired by Laura’s life story and were thrilled when she agreed to tell us about her latest obsessions! To find out what they are, click behind the cut.

ONE. Best Friends Animal Society – I am a huge animal lover and am a big supporter of this rescue group. They will take any unwanted animals and do what ever is necessary to help the animal get adopted. They also have a no kill policy.

TWO. Bose Headsets — I travel all of the time and these headsets have considerably improved the flying experience. They cancel out the noisy airplane so you can enjoy your music in peace.

THREE. DuWop Lip Venom — It was the second product I developed and it was the product that launched DuWop around the world, not to mention I still love the feel and flavor.

FOUR. Shoes — I can never have enough shoes – they are my biggest weakness. I bought these Stella Mc Cartney pumps and have become completely obsessed with them because I can wear them with anything and they are animal free.

FIVE. Rocca Skincare 24K Gold Cleanser – I fell in love with colloidal gold because of its unique healing properties so I made it available to the masses with my new skincare line. I am particularly loving the 24K Gold Cleanser because it makes my skin so smooth and has completely shrunk my pores.
