JoeShopping wrote the blog post Put Your Best Face Forward (11 hours ago)

I'm just going to go ahead and admit it: I am a little bit obsessive when it comes to taking care of my face. My husband would probably say a LOT obsessive. I can't help it, though. It feels SO good to have a clean, fresh face...and a face that is (mostly) acne free! I try to avoid touching my face during the day, especially if my hands aren't clean. I work in a hospital, so I definitely don't want those germs on my face. I wash my face every morning and every night before bed. My...

DaveB Great post! My wife's been using that ProActiv stuff for a while now and sings its praises. I don't like to touch it because it's too damn expensive! Maybe I'll try your suggestions... thanks! (10 hours ago)

oceandreams Megan I use Neutrogena wipes too - they are the best. Sometimes I use Oil of Olay as well, which I think I prefer over Neutrogena just because I'm a create of habit. I need to try the astringent though - that would be good to get rid of the dirt. I really like Kiehl's facial scrub - use it every other day during my shower! (50 minutes ago)

JoeShopping wrote the blog post Kids Week at the Intrepid or My Day With Chewbacca (Yesterday at 11:08am)

Me and my new BFF!

Yesterday was Presidents' Day, my new favorite holiday. And in keeping with American traditions of honoring people by not working, most schools are off this entire week. So my wife and I celebrated by taking our two boys to the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum down in Manhattan. This former aircraft carrier is now a full-fledged museum. You can learn the history of this great ship, as well as take a tour of the command center and even walk through a real...

JoeShopping wrote the blog post Pretty in Pink Fashion (February 17 at 2:15pm)

Victoria's Secret has an entire clothing line dedicated to it. Molly Ringwald starred in a pretty movie about it. Why, there's even a singer named after the color. We're talking pink. And there are just so many wonderfully pinkalicious fashions out there, it makes us all warm and fuzzy inside. Here's a look at some of our favorites:    Victoria's Secret Pink Cut-off Hoodie $44.50 at VictoriasSecret.com Whether you're lounging around the house or throwing it on to run errands,...

JoeShopping wrote the blog post Love-ly Good Reads for Valentine's Day (February 14 at 3:33pm)

Today's official JoeShopping Blog post was written by Featured Blogger OceanDreams. Valentine's Day is here! What are your plans? If you don't have plans why not read a good book? This is exactly what I plan on doing since my love is far away. We celebrated this day of love prior to me leaving California though, so I'm not too sad. Plus - in all honestly I'm not a huge fan of going out on the actual day February 14th. It's usually very busy and hard to find a restaurant if you don't...

JoeShopping wrote the blog post Spend Some Time Pampering Yourself This Valentine's Day (February 14 at 11:17am)

This official JoeShopping Blog post was written by Featured Blogger MackeyMadness. Today is the day: Happy Valentine's Day! My favorite color is pink, so any holiday that revolves around it is one that leaves me feeling pretty giddy inside. Plus, all the hearts, chocolate and candy everywhere put me in a good mood, too. We usually celebrate by going out to dinner, but this year we are staying in and cooking a "pink and red" dinner.  I know that some people say it's silly to...

George Lucas' epic Star Wars series is back on the big screen where it belongs! This weekend sees the release of Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace in 3-D and chances are, whether you're still getting over the whole Jar Jar thing or you're boycotting 3-D movies in general... your kids will still drag you into the theaters to see it. But you can't be caught wearing any old jeans and a sweatshirt, now can you? The fashion police would toss you in the Rancor's Pit before you...

Today's official JoeShopping Blog post was written by Featured Blogger OceanDreams. With Valentine's Day approaching it's time to think about what outfit you are going to wear. I'm away from my love this Valentine's Day so my outfit is going to consist of a pair of jeans and a nice top! I'm not sure what I'm going to do on that day either. All I know is, if you have a date planned or you're just going out with the girls, it's fun to dress up and look gorgeous. Instead of paying $150...
