Sunday, April 8th, 2007

The Beauty Bug first learned about this mask on a flight from LA to NY - a women three seats over put it on mid-flight. She was intrigued and petrified at the same time; petrified because it’s the Beauty Bug’s opinion that this mask should only be worn in the privacy of your own home. [...]

Review: Scuba Bath Shop Products

Monday, February 12th, 2007

It’s always refreshing to be able to take a break from the big name in your face brands, and experience a niche brand that often times falls under peoples radar.
