The Official Soap of Hipsters
The official beer of Williamsburg (sorry Brooklyn Brew) has been made into soap. It seems someone discovered how fresh their skin felt after a night of binge drinking when they woke up in a cheap puddle of barfed up Pabst Blue Ribbon. The soap is available on Etsy and is by far the last thing I would ever want to bathe in, but hell, it would make a great gag/intervention gift for that special someone in your life who still hasn’t discovered their tolerance level.
You can find Beer Soap here for $4.75 a bar.

Paris Hilton Gets Grilled by Letterman
Letterman calls Paris Hilton an “entrepreneur”. I think he meant genital wart on the vadge of society.
Last year Paris had her name on a nightclub, Carl JR’s hamburgers, a perfume line, a clothing line and some shoes.
This year it’s canned champaign, a doll, hair extensions, and doggie clothes.
I hate to break the news. But I think we can safely break the news that Paris is in a downward spiral. Getting old suck for a Hilton
P.S. Love how she instantaneously places her hand on her hip when she walks out. Did she think the bright studio lights were paparazzi. Oh, the joys of fame.

Beauty Alert!!! Mmmmmm, Placenta…..
Did you ever wish your Maybeline or your Red Bull had the wonderful trace of human afterbirth? Yum, love those fetal escrements. Well if you’re a disgusting baby eater, the Japanese got what ‘cha need. A company called, Q-Bit, has a beauty line of drinks, pills, jellies and face masks all with purified placenta. Of course I’m so friggin’ dramatic that I’ve led you to believe that it’s human placenta when it’s actually pig………..of course placenta is disgusting no matter what mammal it was harvested from. Asians do seem to find benefit and use for any and everthing anyway, but this is still a bit shocking. Now they say it’s a pig BUT remember there are face creams that have baby boy foreskin in them to combat those eye wrinkles………sooooo, there’s a possibility that you could be smearing fetal poo all over your face, how unsavoury!

Two Girls,One Cup: Another Over Priced New York Facial?
The latest facial to hit New York is one made from a rather unsavory special ingredient.
How do I properly describe this one? Okay, so lets say you’re walking down the street and a pigeon accidentally drops a huge load of shit on your face. Would you a) proceed to vomit fearing that some of the flying rats turd managed to make it in your mouth, b) head to the nearest rest room and begin to remove the fecal matter with boiling hot water, soak and a vigorous scrubbing, or c) beging to rub the flub all over your face and thank god you just got a bird poop facial for $180 less than you’d pay at Shizuka New York (7 W 51st St #6)?
He should have just rubbed it right in.
That’s right indies, the newest beauty trend that’s hitting the streets of NYC are bird shit facials!!! Being called the Geisha Facial due to it’s Japanese inspiration, the facial consists of a product made from nightingale excrement, rich in amino acid guanine, which is thought to brighten and cleanse the skin. What’s really odd about the poopidge is that it has a really strog musky smell that needs to be neutralized with rice bran or other scent deflecting products.
Either way, I’m in no rush to have someone smear bird shit on my face. Especially not for $180 bucks.

Beauty for Boys
Jean Paul Gaultier has just launched a collection of makeup, for men.
The line includes cleanser, toner, shaving products, concealer, eyeliner, brow grooming gel, and bronzer.
It’s official. Men are becoming the new women.
I thought we were all over the whole “metro” thing, but then again…
Weigh in ladies. Is it okay for boys to wear makeup or is there not enough in the medicine cabinet for two sticks of lipstick?

Update!!! Kate Bosworth Doesn’t Have Crimped Hair
Leave it to our readers (thanks Anon) to call us out when our asses are wrong. Kate Bosworth does not have crimped hair as we reported earlier.
We were wrong, and our readers are assholes (nah, just joking we love you. be sure to click on ads 
) In other news, 21 is still number one for the second week in a row, which means 212 is right around the corner (I hear this time the math geeks decide to take on Atlantic City but then Trump finds out and tries to enlists Kevin Spacey for Celebrity Apprentice).
Congrats Kate on not having stupid hair and having a good movie out there, but can you hurry up and make Blue Crush 2. I miss seeing Michelle Rodriquez in a bathsuit since she was offed on Lost.

Her Lip Chap is Poppin
Someones getting sued. Saaphryi, the chick that got kicked off of Flavor of Love 2 for violence, has a new commercial for her lip chap in which she steals from Lil Mama’s “Lip Gloss” song. It would be great if Saaphryi wasn’t hiding her stretch marks under that white tee shirt, but hell if your “27″ as she claims (in dog years) you wouldn’t be showing much skin either.

Thandie Newton as Condoleezza Rice
Is it just me, or is there some mixed up casting going on here? Thandie Newton, the extreme hottie from Mission Impossible 2, will be uglying up to play Condeleezza Rice in the new Oliver Stone George W. Bush movie!!! I hope they still have the make up crew that turned Charlize Theron into that Monster chick, cause there will definitely need to be some serious makeup to make this work. Way to aim for the Oscar though Thandie, the Academy loves it when hot girls go buck ugly.

Amanda Lepore Shines/Freaks Me The Flip Out In Heatherette For MAC Promo
This new video for the Heatherette for MAC collection is thoroughly freaky and caused me some nightmares when I watched it without sound last night. Something about someone smearing pink lipstick all over their body automatically triggers the freak the flip out button in my brain.
Not sure if it makes me want to pick up of stick of Tranny Gloss, but it does make me want to do some traveling on the roof of a car.

Brown is Back
The hottest beauty trend of the week? Brunette locks. Agyness Deyn (the model who’s becoming something of a colour chamelion) went chocolate brown for the spring/summer Burberry Prorsum show while Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted on the set of the new Sex and the City movie with a full head of dark brown hair. Of course you could say they’re following Misha Barton’s lead who swapped her beachy highlights for an all over rich chestnut shade several weeks back.
If you’re so fashion forward that you can’t hold out for a salon dye job here’s what you need to get and keep radiant brown hair at home:
A good home hair dye - try Naturtint in 5N for a Misha-esque glossy chestnut without overloading on amonia or for longer-lasting grey coverage go for L’Oreal Excellence in Natural Brown or L’Oreal Preference in Palma.
Colour guarding shampoo - dark hair naturally looks shinier but you can’t beat John Frieda Brilliant Brunette for keeping brown it extra specially glossy.
Shine booster - dark hair naturally looks shiner than blonde but for an extra specially glossy finish apply Daniel Galvin Junior’s Colour Gloss after conditioning.
