Oakwood shop named “national treasure” in women’s magazine
Nicole Gianuglou and her staff at Oakwood’s Preen Apothecary have reason to blush.
The beauty boutique is featured as a “national treasure” in the “New Way to Shop” supplemental delivered to homes with the September edition of “Marie Claire” Magazine.
The shop at 2508 Far Hills Ave. is listed among the magazine’s 13 picks for “National Treasures for beauty enthusiasts from coast-to-coast.”
“It’s Miami, Florida, New York, New York and Oakwood, Ohio,” said Gianuglou, a former national make-up artist for Nars Cosmetics. “I can’t believe we are in there… It’s excited for us. It like validation. ”
She said she is thrilled that the Dayton area has received such national attention.
The supplemental is also included with Marie Claire editions purchased at several stores, including Walmart and Border’s Bookstores.
Preen is called adorable and a great place to book a party.

What did you think of Chris Brown’s bow tie?
R&B singer Chris Brown appeared Wednesday, Sept. 2, on “Larry King Live” to discuss his legal woes, but the information super highway is still buzzing about the baby blue bow tie and matching sweater he wore to the interview.
(Watch the interview below.)
Some folks say he looked like a fool. Others thought the pop princess pounder looked ‘cute.’
(Gag!)
Brown was recently sentenced to five years probation and community labor on a felony assault charge for an assault on then girlfriend Rihanna.
The 20-year-old batted the singer around the inside of a car in February, leaving her bleeding and bruised.
To the chagrin of many, Brown’s outfit has been the talk of the cyber-town every since clips of the King interview were released earlier this week.
Really, who wants to tackle a critically important thing like teen domestic violence when you can go on and on about a stupid bow tie right?
