all things facial

it is interesting that the folks who brought on an american obsession with nose pores do not have a single nasty "after photo" on their website. An entire campaign of models pulling gunk out of their noses and we never get to see it. obviously their pr peeps decided to go with the soft tones of women's ethereal beauty instead of the quack infomercial 'wow, this really works wonders' campaign.

today brandon and i discussed the irony of some anti-intellecualist news outlets who deplore the state of our universities and their professors, yet have no qualms about utilizing the moniker Dr. so-&-so, PhD for certain political analysts in order to build credibility ( i guess the leopard print miniskirts just aren't doing it).
