Look for Nestle at the cosmetics counter

If you thought that the grocery store was the only place you'd ever find Nestlé products, think again. As of last week they're on the cosmetic counters at Neiman Marcus.

The food-making giant launched the Glowelle brand, their entry into the nascent beauty nutraceutical industry. While nutraceuticals specifically for the beauty market have been popular in Japan for the last few years, that use is virtually unknown in the US.

Beauty nutraceuticals are generally drinks or juices that are aimed at some beauty issue, such as skin appearance. Drink the product and your skin will be glowing, or that's the idea. Nestle's Glowelle comes in two flavors: natural jasmine and natural pomegranate lychee.

Too pricey treats from Neiman Marcus

I can sort-of understand the $99 chocolate bunny for sale on the Neiman Marcus special occasion desserts website. Though I'm not completely sure what "semi-solid" means, the bunny is 19-inches high and weighs almost 5 pounds. And $35 for egg-shaped chocolate chicks is not entirely unreasonable because they have been painstakingly hand-decorated with colored chocolate. I have to draw the line on exorbitantly priced desserts somewhere, though, and the set of three chocolate eggs filled with marshmallows, graham cracker and caramel does not seem worth the $80 price tag, especially considering the additional $17 shipping fee. The most unreasonable dessert is a six-inch square cheesecake, wrapped in chocolate "paper" to look like a present, that retails for $190 plus $27 for shipping. Did I mention that the cake only serves 6 people?
