The Beauty Brains are counting down to Feb 14th with new Science of St. Valentines Day posts. Only 3 days left!
If you’re reading the Beauty Brains, you’re probably a fan of beauty and science. If that’s true, you’ll LOVE the way these clever tshirts from Yellow Ibis capture the whimsy and wonder of science. 
These are cute tshirts and sexy shorts with beauty science themes. For example, there’s the “I Heart Chocolate” shirt with a picture of the structure of theobromine in a heart; the “Hot Like Capsaicin” shirt, featuring the chemical structure of capsaicin, the active ingredient in chilis and hot peppers; and then of course our personal favorite, the “I Heart Brains” shirt (pictured above).
If you like beauty and science, tell your boyfriend to click on over to Yellow Ibis for some cute gift ideas.

Hey, thanks for the mention! We also do custom if anyone wants something a little different.
Love your blog, by the way. There is a lot of snake oil floating around out there and it’s always refreshing to see a scientific discussion of cosmetics.
I think you will be interested to know that the street terminology “brains” is street term referring to oral sex. There was actually a urban clothing company that once used the slogan ” go to college and get more brains” the company had to remove the ads.So when I saw the t-shirt you posted sorry to say I had to giggle a little.
We’re aware of the urban slang meaning, but I think the exact way a design is done as well as the context it’s worn in, also figures into the interpretation. “Brains” still has a solid non-slang meaning. We also sell internationally and I can think of a lot of words or jokes we wouldn’t touch, including ones based on words that are ‘ok’ in American English but not elsewhere. I’m not posting them here
