Buffy gets naked, what a tease

Filed under: Skin Care, Celebrities with Style

After years of waiting, Buffy the Vampire Slayer finally decided to do some nude photography -- sort of. This is as close as it gets with Sarah Michelle Gellar, who has maintained that she will never take it all off for the camera. The ads feature a series of images, each displays an indistinguishable part of the star's body. One features her hand and forearm, another her face resting on her knees, shrouded in her hair. The tagline reads: keep skin amazing.

The beauty of it is, that the sexy ads are for everybody's favorite hand lotion: Vaseline. This is the kind of ad concept that's just made for one-liners. I had the urge to crank one out about how the ads were jerking us all off -- but that's just what the ad firm wants, so I'll stop there.

Initially, the skin care giant challenged customers to guess which celebrity was featured in the ads. Now the photos are being auctioned off to benefit the Coalition of Skin Diseases. So it's all for a good cause.

Early in her career, Gellar promised never to do nudity, and it's rumored that she requires no-nudity clauses in her film contracts. According to Female First, she didn't actually pose naked for the ads, but wore a black dress that was digitally removed. Doh!

Chanel black nail polish: what do you think?

Filed under: Cosmetics

black nail polishWe saw finger tips that reminded us of Marilyn Manson on the likes of Lindsay Lohan, then heard that Sarah Michelle Gellar went so far as swiping bottles of Chanel nail polish during New York's Fashion Week. What is it with black nail polish? Personally, I think black nail polish makes your fingertips looks bruised, your hands dirty, and in the end, it's just plain ugly. But for some reason, it is all the rage, and Chanel's Black Satin nail polish is very very difficult -- practically impossible -- to get a hold of here in the US. New York Magazine has a brief history of black nail polish through the years, but that certainly doesn't explain why the quest for goth-like fingertips have suddenly made the price of Chanel's Black Satin shoot up from the usual $18 a bottle to $150 on places like eBay.
