Every once in a while we discover a blog that’s so delightful that we just HAVE to share it with our Beauty Brains community. For example, when we were just starting out over two years ago, one of our favorites was, and still is, Brain Spam. (We miss you, Glitterati!) And we recently found another blog that is equally entertaining.
It’s called Babyassface which by the name alone, you should be able to tell how zany it is. (And how often do you get to use the word zany? Not nearly enough!) This blog does a fantastic job of poking fun at the beauty biz while still giving us insightful product reviews. Jenny, the editor of the Babyassface, has a twisted sense of humor that always makes this Beauty Brain smile. So, we offered Jen the chance to be guest blogger for a day. And now we proudly present Babyassface.com’s look at oxygen facials. 
Oxygen facials (by Jenny)
I remember noticing a few years back that Sharon Stone’s skin was military sheet tight, and had an insanely, youthful glow (with equally huge amounts of insane and youthful).
She attributed this glow to oxygen facials. (Perhaps they should have set it on 8 instead of 10.)
Personally, I can’t afford to pay someone with a beautician’s license to blow oxygen on my face every week, so I have to settle for the poor woman’s oxygen facial. It’s called breathing. Yes, I know breathing isn’t as glamorous a beauty procedure as, say, having botulism shot into your forehead, but I swear by it.
So what’s one of the best ways to max out your nasal passages and get a bit of that crazy, Sharon Stone glow?
The neti pot.
There isn’t enough money in the world that would make me do this in front of a human being with a camera - kudos to you girl.
What do you want me to do with that thing? Simply fill the neti pot with warm water. Add some neti pot salt. (Use the salt or it stings.) Then pour it up one nostril and watch in amazement as it hopefully comes out the other. The neti pot will create a subtle vacuum that extracts mucus and toxins from the sinus passages into the flowing water and down your drain.
And if you have allergies like I do (I’m allergic to my cat sleeping on my face) it can even help reduce under eye puffiness.
And the best part - with the neti pot, there’s never a risk of overdosing on oxygen and thinking your right hand is a big spider.
The Beauty Brains bottom line
Thanks Jenny, that was a hoot! Actually it was at least a hoot and a half. If any of our readers are in the mood for an irreverent look a the culture of cosmetics, we suggest they take a look at Babyassface.com. We promise they won’t be disappointed!
