Beauty’s Best
THE quest for ultimate beauty products can rack up a tab as high as the Tower of Babel. Yes, to be beautiful can be painfully expensive and tragically exhausting. We’ve all been through the ups and downs caused by the non-ending product trials. This is when the consumer and beauty awards become most helpful. They set the testing stage, and sort of weed out a significant number of "beauty best-buy wannabes."

DISTINCT VOICES
THE sentiment towards French Contemporary Art has practically been one of disdain, to the point of refusing to acknowledge its existence, and even dismissing it, rather harshly, as not appropriate to be placed alongside American, Asian and other European artists.

Aquamarine
THERE’S a perceptible trend that I’ve noticed in the past few films I’ve watched. I can tell whether the film will be successful by the director’s deployment of music. For example, one movie employed terrible emo rock to set the tone for a terrible teenybopper horror flick. Similarly, we see the trend in Aquamarine, a tweener fantasy that could pass for a Nickelodeon Saturday afternoon special. We start off with pop fluff, and that’s pretty much all that we get from this film.
