Someone sold me out to a bunch of merchandise catalogs, because lately, I’ve been getting crap from all sorts of places, such as Eddie Bauer, CB2, THE SCOOTER STORE (really?!), and Soft Surroundings. …I don’t shop at any of these places, nor do I have any sort of online accounts with them – must be some behind-the-scenes corporate synergy (although what do scooters have to do with outdoor apparel?).
Anyways, while looking through the Soft Surroundings catalog, I came upon this Hair Matte Powder (you MUST click the link and read the product description). Dude, what the fuck ?! I understand powder make up – it’s “good” for your skin, and an alternative to liquid make up. I understand powder for your eyelids – eye shadow. And for you ass – baby powder. But, seriously, hair powder to hide scalp insecurities? That’s a new one! Now we’re being told that we have to feel bad about ourselves because we have thin hair or because our roots have grown out because we were too busy LIVING OUR LIVES to get to the salon! I guess you can sell anything as long as you can convincingly market to our insecurities – “Beauty is having a high hairs-per-square-inch of scalp ratio.” And it has to be true, because there’s a product for it!
But really, what does Soft Surroundings know anyway? Oh, and did I mention the product is sold by Joan Rivers? …Yup.
