buzz bissinger, the author,
journalist, and recovering
shopping addict perhaps best
known for his 1990 book
Friday Night Lights, has of late
become beauty obsessed. If
he had his way, he’d “buy a new
cream every week.” As far as
what works, he stays informed—
trawling through Dermstore’s
blog and mining celebrity
interviews “for tips from the rich
and famous and beautiful
and anyone else I hate because
of skin so flawless you could
skate on it.” He writes a regular
column for the Strategist,
where he has reviewed dozens of
products, from retinol creams
to barely there bronzer. On the
latter: “I want it to be subtle
and for every day, but for fuck’s
sake, of course I
want to be noticed.”
