So, friends, this wasn't the best week for internet access. I was just bursting to give you the Oscars beauty breakdown, but the internet gods in Mallorca just didn't seem to want to let me.

And then? Blogger decided to inform me that its automatic anti-spam doodads had tagged my site as a spam blog! Lovely. So I had to wait a day for the Blogger people to review it and let me back in.

But now I'm back.

Before we get down to the Oscar coverage and all sorts of spring beauty madness, remember when I mentioned the Korres products in the hotel bathrooms? Apparently I wasn't the only one who was impressed. Over dinner I actually overheard male colleagues raving about the Korres goodies. When do you ever hear a man remember - and rave about - his "rice protein shampoo?"

I've sung the praises of Korres here before, but if you didn't believe me, now you have a straight guy's seal of approval, too. (If that matters.)

The products? Vanilla Cinnamon Shower Gel, Citrus Body Milk, Achillea Conditioner, and of course, the Rice Proteins shampoo.
