Waxing a 10-year-old’s eyebrows…taking it too far?

The clip above is from TLC’s show Toddlers & Tiaras, and shows a 10-year-old Brooklyn getting her eyebrows waxed. I think it’s totally disturbing, and there should be some sort of law against it! I’ve had my brows waxed, it hurts like hell!

I like how he says “This is going to be painful enough for both of us”. SO WRONG!

Do you think 10 is too young to wax?

Bored? Decorate your lady bits.

Less painful and scary then the Vajazzle, completely bare now offers Bikini Ink. Next up top hats and tails for the man bits?

The creators of the Vajazzle now let you airbrush some temporary ink down there with their new Bikini Ink treatment.

completely bare introduces a new way to spice up your standard bikini wax: Bikini Ink. An airbrush tattoo applied directly after a completely bare bikini wax, Bikini Ink lets you live dangerously temporarily. Get “inked” with your beau’s initials, or go for a flirty design—the tattoo you choose is up to you.

Clients can get a flower, butterfly, sun, or calligraphy letters inked in their favorite color. A trained technician applies an exclusive stencil and airbrushes the ink directly onto the area, giving you a coy secret to hide—or reveal—as you choose. The ink lasts up to five days for commitment-free, flirtatious fun.

The ink is a non-toxic body airbrush paint that lasts up to five days. This paint is waterproof but either baby oil or rubbing alcohol will remove the Bikini Ink.

WHAT IT COSTS: $75

60 second magic!

I was browsing Target and was pulled in by a display for Sally Hansen Insta-Dri nail polish and decided to give it a try. I painted my toes and really liked the brush it was wide and thin making application a snap.

Last night I decided to give the 60 second drying a real test and paint my nails right before bed.  A few strokes later I am done and I decide to do the unthinkable and touch my just polished nail and it was dry! I woke up this morning my nails look great not a single smudge. Sally Hansen I think I love you, can’t wait to get more colors!

Ocean Breeze by Revlon is a shimmering greenish-blue shade fit for a mermaid. As part of Revlon’s limited-edition Scents of Summer line, the formula is scented (take a whiff once the polish dries and you’ll swear the ocean is at the end of your nose). But if you want a bottle, hurry! The scent-sational hue debuted in April and has been flying off store shelves.
