New launch at miomia : Brandy Parfums

June 26, 2009
Brandy Parfums Eau de Toilette Spray

Brandy Parfums Eau de Toilette Spray

Every so often, a new fragrance is launched that generates ever-widening circles on its own merit, something like the ripples created by casting a stone on still water. BRANDY eau de toilette is such a phenomenon.

First created by artist Patricia Namm who used Brandy, a striking palomino Central Park carriage horse, as her muse, the fragrance was immediately embraced by the so-called “horsey” set. It has been featured in countless glossy equine publications and catalogues, both here and abroad.

Now the message is out as women and men of all ages engaged in diverse sports and activities adopt this fragrance for themselves. We think it is the suggestion of distant fields, rolling aromatic meadows, apple and peach top notes, and herbaceous heart notes that account for the appeal of this pleasing scent. Just one mist from the handsome bottle has the ability to erase stress and turmoil, and transport the most jaded urban dweller to verdant countryside for a reviving and cleansing visit. A fresh elegant fragrance with top notes of apple and peach and herbaceous heart notes that help reduce stress. Simply warm, soothing and delicious.

Knock Out Cosmetics' Concrete and Pool Flatte Nail Polish

Damn, these are hot. Concrete’s a stunningly neutral and universally flattering grey. It’s gorge on boys too; our dear friend Isaac Macdougal (the hottest bartender at one of our local stomping grounds, Dressler) is sporting it on his toes and they look fresh! Pool’s a happy, fun, aqua shade…just like a swimming pool!

Grab Concrete here, and grab Pool here. And don’t forget, these are the last shades from Knock Out until the fall.

New launch at miomia :: Bluebeards Originals

May 15, 2009
Bluebeards Original : Beard Wash and Beard Saver

Bluebeards Original : Beard Wash and Beard Saver

Finally, yes finally! Products made exclusively for you boys with facial hair. There’s thousands of grooming products to help you achieve a close shave and smooth skin, but what if you choose to grow those whiskers out? What if you like a full beard?

Bluebeards Original is the brilliant (and necessary) brainchild of Paul Kaniewski and Moira Koch. After frustrating and fruitless attempts at finding a product to help maintain a soft and itch-free beard,  Paul and Moira went out on their own and created Bluebeard Originals. The concept is simple and two-fold: wash your beard, and protect it. That’s it!

Here’s to grooming for all men!
