Et voila!  You asked for my Vi Peel photos, and here they are.  On the left is the “before” photo, taken six weeks ago.  On the right is the “after” photo, taken this afternoon.  I’m wearing mascara and a little eye shadow in today’s picture, but am not wearing any other makeup; both photos are WYSIWYG.  For a larger, in-your-face (or, rather, in-my-face) version, check out this link. 

Now that I’ve had a chance to compare the side-by-side shots, the difference is actually pretty remarkable and leads me to say that I would enthusiastically recommend the Vi Peel to those with pigmentation problems.  (My doctors at Profiles Beverly Hills performed mine.)  And, by the way, if the scary “Nadine without her makeup!” photo on the left isn’t the world’s greatest advertisement for Bare Minerals foundation (I told you all I had ruddy, messy skin!), I don’t know what the hell is.

Finally, visit my new Jolie page on You Tube for two laughable videos I took of myself the day and night following my Vi Peel with my new Flip camera.  Seriously.  No making fun.  (Um, and maybe you shouldn’t look at the videos while you’re eating.  Day two of the peel is absolutely disgusting.)  Loving my Flip, however!  I’ll start uploading some fun how-to videos for your enjoyment.

xo, J!

If this photo, taken yesterday at the MLB All-Star game at Yankee Stadium, is to be believed, it looks like SJP has finally rid herself of her famous mole.  I’ll admit, while watching old reruns of Sex and the City, my eye is unwillingly drawn to that thing; as the years passed, the mole seemed messier and out of place, as if the beauty equivalent of a once-chic, now-tatty cashmere sweater.  It was charming, but not beautiful.  And yet, now that her mole is gone (at the advice of her dermatologist, perhaps, or simply vanity?), I kind of miss it.
