Jolie Academy Website Takes A Leap Forward

Posted on: September 26th, 2008 by Beauty Schools Directory 1 Comment

The Jolie Academy  web site has recently gone through a major overhaul and the final product is definitely something for them to be excited about.  Aside from the updated design, Jolie has built their new site on a powerful web development platform called Drupal .  Drupal will open up a lot of new opportunities for the school as the deploy some of Drupal’s interesting social media features:

• Social Networking
• User Video Uploads
• Multi User Blogging
• Social Voting

Drupal is also the web development platform of choice for many of Hollywood’s biggest stars.  If you want to see some other great Drupal sites check out:

Jennifer Lopez
Britney Spears
Universal Music Group
Tori Amos
Ozzy Ozbourne
Pink
Avril Lavigne

All of these sites are very dynamic and allow for a lot of input and interaction from users.   We hope to see the same from Jolie and we’re expecting big things from them now that they have adopted such a robust development platform.

Don’t drink it. Bathe in it!

Posted on: September 25th, 2008 by Beauty Schools Directory No Comments

Wine – a great drink to share with family and friends.  Tea – pleasant hot or cold. Coffee – gets many of us going in the morning.  What else are they good for besides drinking you might ask?  Bathing in of course!

Spas across the world are turning common eats and drinks into must-have luxuries for pampering your skin. Check out where to find these borderline whacky spa treatments and the real benefits they could have for your skin.

Beverage bathing.  Hakone Kowakien Yunessun.
Pick from bathing in wine, green tea, or coffee at this Japanese spa.  The wine spa is said to rejuvenate your skin and body.  The green tea spa has powerful antioxidants good for the immune system and the skin. The coffee spa is supposed to awaken your senses and fight fatigue while making your skin more beautiful.

Corona beer face lift.  Esperanza Resort. 
A Corona face lift sounds a little suspicious being that most people don’t feel or look so amazing after a night with Coronas.  But at this Cabo San Lucas resort, a Corona face lift is said to leave you with refined pores, a glowing face and firm skin. 

Chocolate for your body.  The Hershey Hotel.
The final and most delectable of the spa treatments can be found at The Hershey Hotel.  At their spa you can choose from a chocolate bean polish, chocolate sugar scrub or a chocolate fondue wrap.  The fondue wrap revitalizes and nourishes the skin while relaxing the body.  I’ll go for any of the chocolate treatments, as long as their feeding me chocolate while wrapping me up in it, and I would be happy!
