Philosophy's Holiday Sets: The Gift of Yummy Smells
Nov 11, 2009 by Betty Tianco
Known for their food- and recipe-inspired all-in-one shampoo, shower gel, and bubble bath lines, Philosophy goes seasonal with holiday sets like “The Cookbook,” a book-shaped package of six Christmas-evoking flavors—pumpkin spice, red velvet, hot cocoa, spicy pear, gingerbread, and cinnamon buns—and “The Recipe Box,” a matched set containing red velvet and sweet creamy frosting shower gels and actual recipe cards. Another quirky combination aptly named “'Twas the night before,” consists of the traditional gift kids leave out for Santa on Christmas eve—milk and cookies, in shower gel form, of course.
For those who prefer to keep their edibles on their plates and their toiletries smelling more sophisticated, layering sets of Philosophy’s popular Love and Grace fragrances are also available. The sets contain a 2oz. bottle of eau de toilette, an 8oz shower gel, and a 2 oz. tube of body butter, in signature scents “amazing grace,” “pure grace,” and “unconditional love.”
To see more of the holiday collection, check out the gallery below.
I got architecturally sculpted brows from Browhaus
Oct 22, 2009 by Betty Tianco

I’m no brow virgin. I’ve had my share of tweezing, plucking, shaving, and threading. The problem is, I’m lousy at maintenance, so after a cleaning, my neatly-shaped brows usually morph into big hairy monsters again. So I jumped at the chance to try Browhaus’ Browgraphy service, to see just how good it was: Singaporean brand (think OC trainers) + architectural philosophy (a Bauhaus-based tandem of function and fashion) = high expectations, after all.
