Glamour Girls Who Will Give you Gas (or Steamy Cabbage) by Ju Duoqi.

Born in Chongqing in 1973, and a graduate of the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, Ju Duoqi (shown above) is Chinese artist and photographer who first started working with vegetables in 2006. In 2008 she created a series of reproductions of classic painting reproductions using vegetables called 'The Vegetable Museum' and then, in 2010, this hilarious series "The Fantasies of Chinese Cabbage." The project consisted of 18 portraits  of pin-up girls and beautiful women made entirely out of green cabbage (the images that appear to use red cabbage are simply altered/inverted).

Kenny Scharf for Kiehl's Limited Edition Holiday Skin Care.

Kiehl's Since 1851 has teamed up with artist Kenny Scharf (after having done so with KAWS and Jeff Koons in the past) for this year's limited edition holiday skin care gifts.



This season, customer favorite Crème de Corps moisturizing cream and body lotion is featuring Kenny Scharf's Globo Mundo, and is on the labels for three sizes of Creme de Corps, and one size of their Creme de Corps Soy Milk & Honey Whipped Body Butter. I was NOT paid to promote these products and I must tell you Creme de Corps truly is the best body lotion I have ever used.



For the first time, the 16.8 oz Creme de Corps bottle is fully printed in the artist's image as opposed to just being on the label:


"Globomundo", Kenny Scharf, 2012, Oil & Acrylic on Linen, 109 x 145 inches:


In addition, you can own an original Kenny Scharf artwork with the purchase of the Limited Edition Kenny Scharf Exclusive “Squirt” Collectible. An emotive little character sculpture with two expressions (one on either side) that is signed and numbered and comes with a certificate of authenticity. 2,000 are available worldwide:




Watch the video below, inspired by the artwork of Kenny Scharf.


100 percent of Kiehl’s worldwide net profits, up to $200,000, will support children’s charities worldwide.



To spread the joy and learn more about the cause, visit their website. Products are also available through Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom.
