I'd only bid on the Twin Peaks bra if they threw in a box of doughnuts.
Someone gave her the joker gas/fish!
AND OMFG, that picture of Bush and a giant female Easter Bunny is priceless.
Twin Peaks Bra: Damn good cups of boob.
Twin Peaks bra comes with a free 'Burning Bush' thrush cream
She's marching for disarmament? Try not voting Tory, Viv.
I've heard of the aspirin mask before. No thanks. Too much effort to go buy uncoated aspirin and then try and crush it up.
I don't believe in homemade facials ever since a friend put cucumbers on her eyes and they had bugs in them and she got an eye infection.
i swear by the Aspirin Mask. good exfoliator too
That Saks thing is total BS. Aritzia has been doing the same thing for like a year already... just without the shit voiceover. Industry first? More like sloppy seconds.
@misssgolightly: They were invisible bugs? How horrifying.
Eeew, bugs. I'm currently having a cockroach infestation. Disgusting. Makes me feel like I'm in the beginning of that awful Charlize Theron movie from last year about the crazies who though they had bugs under their skin and started cutting themselves apart.
asprin? hell, I am going to Boots and get me some asprin!
@misssgolightly: Omg, that's so disgusting yet hilarious at the same time. I would expect that to happen in a Miss Congeniality/Bridget Jones movie, not in real life! And smearing blood thinning chemicals on my face kind of skeeves me out. Your skin is an organ people!
@misssgolightly: I'll stick to my Origins skincare routine me thinks. Although this also reminds me of the time I went on camp in high school and the mean bitches told one of the "geeks" that putting slices of pizza on your face as a mask was good for it.
@misssgolightly: That is sad about your friend but funny.
Ugh, I'm so over the celebrity "designers." What does Nicole Ritchie know about designing children's wear (from the article in the link), aside from the fact that she has a child? Ten bucks the line gets recalled because it's not flame-retardant, and it actually being made by children, for children!
@amandahugnkiss: IS being made, not it
@amandahugnkiss: Nicole Richie wears children's clothing, well before she got the post-baby boobs. You know she's just been dying to have that little couture sweatsuit with 'Juicy' on the ass.
i'm waiting for the post about preparation h for under-eye bags. someone brought in a case of the junk to work (i don't know why), and that shit was snapped up.
@battleaxonista: Ahhh, that must be it. I was thinking it would be baby couture...teeny tiny corsets and pencil skirts. Plus there would have to be little black vests and Freddy Krueger hats as a shout-out to Joel.
Asprin masks rock, but I have to hate on the "Sugar" blogs - Popsugar, Yumsugar, etc. They are as insipid as white rice with white gravy on white bread. Marbles are edgier. Whenever I see a link here I grit my teeth and click through, but I am always so glad to get back to Jezebel. That place is like my nightmare suburban McHovel compared with Jez's downtown loft.
@CMG: there was a discussion about that in the comments on one of the Sephora Spy columns. If I remember correctly - yes, it does work b/c Prep-H is an anti-inflammatory BUT if you actually get it in your eyes, it can cause serious problems like blinding you (at least according to whoever it was who supplied that information. someone else swore by it).
Just wipe some aspirin across your face.
It puts the Advil on its skin?
what, so implementing a "green line" makes it okay for BR to have shady child labor issues?
Ever since I was 30 minutes late to an interview at H&M (traffic/car accident, train stuck under the bay) and they were sooooo mean to me I can't help but feel bitter.
H&M sucks!
Cake, however, is way cool.
@littlebluebug: You owe me some vanilla soy milk because is now on my screen.
@dosido: "Marbles are sharper" hahahahaha!
@dosido: God, THANK YOU for saying that. For some reason, I keep going back to Bellasugar (<- beauty addict) thinking that they'll have something new and inventive to say, or even anything remotely interesting, but no.
I mean, come on. I love LC, but her beauty routine? Slap on some tinted moisturizer and shimmery lip gloss, draw a line on your eyelids with black liner, and call it a day. That really ended it for me.
Re: Breaking news: Proctor & Gamble just bought Frederic Fekkai.
While I realize this is probably tragic, I am reveling in the fact that it'll break my co-workers heart. I am hoping that when I tell her, she'll be so traumatized that she'll never try to chat with me again. Thank you, Baby Jesus/Proctor & Gamble!
@misssgolightly: Tsk, tsk, tsk. You are missing out, my dear!
twin peaks is the BEST name for a bra, ever.
The Swedes are all about cake and coffee. It's a big social thing, like meeting for drinks, and most Swedish companies have this sort of Friday afternoon kibbutz. They call it "fika." Time for relaxing and chatting with coworkers before leaving early to start the weekend.
And that's why every Swede you meet looks young and relaxed and happy and not like they'd punch the shit out of someone for cutting them off in a line. Stuff like "fika." Sadly, the Swedish company I work at only does fika once a month. Frickin' Americans.
George Clooney is gorgeous! What a man. Mmmm!
