paul mitchell's 413 sculpting brush, of course.

you know you're a beauty writer when...

you read the above quote in a new york times article last month, during the height of the blagojevich scandal, and all you can think is "hold on a second...what paul mitchell brush? i've got to try this brush!"

turns out the brush in question is the paul mitchell 413 sculpting brush. i got my hands on one, and i have to say, i do see why he might have gotten addicted - it's lightweight and gives a great scalp massage!

$7.50 at authorized paul mitchell retailer salons.
