Okay, I don't spoil the party, but this thread got hijacked and Kimm and I really did have some legit questions about the status of things in Beauty.

namely

1. Why no MH Beauty/Wellness reviews on Front Page?
2. No Beauty Top Earners (only Wellness)?
3. What has happened to Fragrance reviews?

The epi staff is working on these items, and on getting rid of ads for cheap knock off sneaker companies.

Barb, I actually came across this when perusing a British food website looking for things for your W/O. My mom served us a lot of weird stuff growing up as my grandmum was Scottish. But this was a new one to me.

I swear I'm going to order it!



They did have a lot of weird stuff to eat but this one was truly strange...I didn't try it...but am looking forward to see what strange food item you come up with if that at all... actually if you do order it, I'll bet it would make an interesting review. LOL

Spudman, :)...yes, I'm sure it is popular with the ladies...

I think this stuff was named after Herman Melville's Captain Ahab. After all this is what he did, his obsession.

That and whale slaughtering, right?

Okay, so I don't actually know because I never read it. I just know that there is a long bit about whale slaughtering in the book.

I haven't forgotten about this post. I've been getting myself educated on each of these topics, and now I have some answers.

1) Soft Productized categories are not included in the queries that generate the homepage content. There's a ticket opened to fix this, but it's not prioritized at this time.

2) Is this fixed? The #5 TER is for Cosmetics.

3) I'm guessing that Fragrance reviews were not earning Income Share? Is this also fixed? I looked for recent Fragrance reviews and verified that at least one earned something in June and July. This one was written in Feb 2008:

elaura82's Elegant!

Let me know if I'm missing something. I'm happy to dig a little deeper.

Thanks Damon!

Others will probably have an answer quicker than I, but thanks so much for looking in to this :)

Beauty reviews that had high MH ratings *used* to be shown on the Front Page, and then stopped, that's why I thought to ask :)
