      <description><![CDATA[--Guest Post By Justin DevonshireYou are what you eat.As such, how your body looks and feels is directly related to well you nourish it. You likely use a variety of skin care and beauty products to help keep your skin moist and smooth. Yet, most of the ingredients in those products are actually derived from natural foods.Vitamins such as A, C and E have detoxifying properties and are found in most lotions. There are also some skin care products that contain natural acids that are originally found in citrus fruits.Today Im going to show you the best foods that you can buy right now that will give you the same benefits as the top beauty and skin care cosmetics (but at a far lower price). Including these foods to your diet regularly will give you some great improvements in the density of your nails, make your skin smoother and make your hair stronger (just make sure you eat these foods  dont rub them over you. I thought I should point that out just in case. Theres always one who take the information the wrong way)Tip #1: Drink More WaterLets start with an easy one. Dehydration is common in many people, and leads to dry skin.Water is also essential for flushing out toxins from your body. If left unfiltered, these toxins will eventually manifest in your skin, hair and nails.Start including a glass of water with each meal, and drink at least another half-litre throughout the day. In doing so youll also feel more alert, have a better mood and will have more energy.Tip #2: Eat More Fat!This may sound like blasphemy, but the truth is that most people dont eat enough healthy fats. Healthy fats are used by the body to grow hair and nails, reducing brittleness, and also to give your skin a healthy glow.Healthy fat also lowers inflammation in your body. When inflammation under your skin and in your blood vessels is reduced youll get more healthy nutrients delivered to your hair, skin and nails. This can help in dealing with split-ends, as well as reducing wrinkled skin and lines.To make sure youre getting enough healthy fat I recommend having at least 2 eggs per day, use extra virgin olive oil generously on your salads, and supplement with an omega-3 fish oil capsule. You can also use nuts and seeds as snacks to get an extra boost of healthy fats.Tip #3: Reduce ToxinsIf you are like most women, you are likely to be drowning in toxins. We are bombarded with toxins from processed foods, lack of exercise and from our environments. As mentioned, toxins can block several processes in the body and stop healthy nutrients being delivered to your hair and nails. Your skin is the organ that eventually has to remove these toxins from your body, and as such this is why you may have dry patches, course or oily skin and blackheads. The toxins are coming up through the skin (your body is pushing them out) and this leads to some nasty side effects.Help your body out by reducing the toxins you consume and by drinking more water to help flush existing toxins out (see Tip #1).To eliminate toxins, reduce any processed foods including white carbs such as white bread and pasta, and of course junk food. Eat more organic foods and grass-fed lean meat and poultry.Full-body massage and other treatments offered by beauty therapists (such as lymphatic drainage) can also aid in flushing out toxins. In addition to these tips, dont forget to be exercising at least 3 times a week using resistance and body-toning workouts. Exercise will get blood flowing to the skin, hair and nails to keep them healthy, and to keep you looking young and radiant._______Justin Devonshire is a women's fat-loss &amp; body-toning expert.

Strawberry Scrub
To get your skin in tip top shape for the big day, what could be better than a homemade strawberry face and body scrub.
Ingredients:
2 pureed strawberries
1 tbsp of olive oil
1 tbsp of vegetable oil
1 tbsp of Vitamin E oil or pour out the liquid of 1 Vitamin E capsule.
2 tbsp of sugar
Mix all the ingredients together. In the shower, rub all over your body for a great exfoliating experience.
Raspberry honey face mask
The red raspberries contain loads of vitamin C which is essential for maintaining healthy clear glowing wrinkle free skin. The honey helps moisturize your skin because it contains natural moisturizers in it, and it helps fight acne and prevent it because it contains natural antibodies in it that kill the germs that cause the acne in the first place. The rolled oats help absorb unwanted oils and impurities from the skin while also lightly exfoliating it. These are the reasons why this is a beneficial facial mask for combination skin types.
Ingredients:
Mix 1/2-cup pureed raspberries
 cup honey
 cup rolled oats
Strawberry Acne Cleanser
Ingredients:
Strawberry yogurt or
1 strawberry
2 tbsp plain yogurt
Instructions:
Apply to skin in a circular motion for a minute or 2. Rinse with a warm cloth and water. Great for oily skin as well.
Rose and Honey Milk Bath
Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups whole milk
1/3 cup honey
5 drops rose essential oil
1 cup rose petals optional
Mix the milk, honey, and rose oil well. Add to a warm bath. Sprinkle the rose petals in the water and soak.

      <description><![CDATA[
Jennifer Anistongraces the March cover of InStyle Magazine. She looks gorgeous as ever (she just gets more and more beautiful as she gets older!). She&#8217;s currently promoting her new movie, &#8216;Wanderlust&#8217;, which comes out soon. This is the comedy where she fell in love with her current boyfriend,Justin Theroux. The two have been dating ever since, and seem to be doing really well.
Of course the interviewer brought up Brad Pitt&#8230;.again. I mean why not drudge up the past some, what, 7 years later? Here are some clips from the interview viaCelebitchy:
Uncool Bermuda Triangle Misconceptions:Which one? There are so many. I would say the triangle with my ex-husband  and that theres a feud there. Its constant. Its a story headline that wont go away, but its a money thing  [people make money off] a story that has nothing to do with reality.
Her previous relationships sucked:Having experienced everything you dont want in a partner over time, it starts to narrow down what you actually do want. As I get older, I realize what qualities are important in love and what suits me. And what I wont settle for.
On her culinary skills:Id love to say Im an accomplished cook, but I dont have any signature dishes. Im good at breakfast  I make great eggs. My father gave me a little recipe. Its all in the seasoning. But its a Greek secret. I wont give it away!
On her favorite thing about boyfriend Justin Therouxs style:First of all, he has great style  its very specific, and it has been his style forever. Has it influenced mine? No, but I know people say it has.Oh, look, youre dressing alike. And I think, no Im not. Ive had this jacket for three years!
On what career shed pick if she had to change:Directing. I was very proud of producing and directing for the beautiful project Five. Or Id love to be a dermatologist. Id be so obsessive about it. Im fascinated by skin, products, and lasers. I go on the Internet and read all about it. I call it laser porn.
On the biggest risk shes taken in life:Im not sure. Just walking out of the house can be a risk!
Feeling old:You know what makes me feel old? When I see girls who are 20-something, or the new crop of actresses, and think, Arent we kind of the same age? the 43-year-old says. I dont feel my age. I feel young every day.
She looks beautiful in these pictures. Flawless!

      <title><![CDATA[Buxom Stay-There Eyeshadows Review, Photos, Swatches (Part 2)]]></title>
      <link>http://www.temptalia.com/buxom-stay-there-eyeshadows-review-photos-swatches-part-2</link>
      <description><![CDATA[
Buxom Stay-There Eyeshadows
Buxom Stay-There Eyeshadows (Part 2)
Buxom Stay-There Eyeshadow ($17.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a cream-gel-mousse formula that&#8217;s designed to have a lightweight texture, yield &#8220;vivbrant, lively, buildable&#8221; color, be waterproof, and long-wearing. Just for fun, Bare Escentuals made a charitable contribution to Canine Companions for Independence when this product launched. They are also exclusive to Sephora. The next five shades I&#8217;m reviewing are: Golden Retriever (vibrant copper red), Husky (baby blue), Mutt (bronzed taupe), Poodle (pale yellow gold), and Pug (smoky pewter).
According to the brand, these are supposed to have sheer color coverage, but they are buildable to an extent. The five featured in this post are very true to that creed&#8211;they can easily be used as a sheer wash of color, but they can also be used opaque by either initially applying more color or by applying a second layer of color on top of the first. Stay-There Eyeshadows have a spongy quality that reminds me of memory foam; you can press it, and it will slowly spring back to form. You can jab at it with a pencil, and you&#8217;ll end up shifting it around more than anything! These actually launched well before Chanel Illusion d&#8217;Ombres, which have a similar texture.
I like using a really stiff, firm, and flat brush with these, but I&#8217;ve had the best luck applying these with fingertips. Once applied, they dry down to a powder finish in just the right time&#8211;not instantly but not so long that it&#8217;s creased before you&#8217;ve finished applying product to the other eye. I&#8217;ve tested several shades without primer as washes, including Black Lab, Bulldog, Chihuahua, Collie, Mutt, Pug, Saint Bernard, and Shih Tzu, and I haven&#8217;t had any issues with the shades creasing, fading, or smudging. I&#8217;ve even worn a few of them during showers to test waterproof claims, and they haven&#8217;t budged.

Golden Retriever is a warm, slightly red-tinted bronze brown. It can be applied sheer or as mostly opaque color coverage. Benefit Dandy Brandy is slightly darker. Maybelline Bad to the Bronze is darker and less red-toned. Urban Decay YDK is less brown.
Husky is a pastel baby blue with a silvery white shimmer. The color coverage can be built to opaque color coverage with ease. MAC Styledriven is slightly darker. Bare Escentuals Illusion is whiter, more aqua. Inglot #367 is similar but matte.
Mutt is a muted brown with a gilded bronze sheen. It doesn&#8217;t read taupe to me&#8211;it&#8217;s too warm and golden for that. Like the previous two shades, it can be built to opaque color coverage or applied as a sheer wash of color with less product. Urban Decay Suspect is a little more yellow-toned. MAC Magical Mist is a bit grayer. Urban Decay Juju is less red-toned. Urban Decay Spotlight is lighter.
Poodle is a pale yellow gold with a soft, metallic sheen. It, too, can be opaque or sheer, depending on application, but it doesn&#8217;t take much product to get opaque color. Tarina Tarantino Wonderful is a little lighter. theBalm Wild Child is very close. Givenchy Lune is also similar. MAC Nylon is slightly whiter.
Pug is a dirty gray-brown; it&#8217;s kind of taupe, but I feel like it&#8217;s too gray to be taupe. It&#8217;s such a cool shade, though, and it works well as a wash of color that&#8217;s more than just beige or brown. MAC Keep Your Cool is darker, less reflective. Urban Decay Mushroom is similar but a touch darker. Chanel Illusoire is darker, almost more purple-tinted.

Where to Buy: Sephora, $17.00 each

      <link>http://www.makeherup.com/2012/02/07/caffeine-infused-tights-that-reduce-cellulite-while-you-wear-them/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[
Look what I came across today! While surfing around, I saw an ad for Skin Kiss tights. Apparently, they are tights that are impregnated with microcapsules of caffeine to break down cellulite. Women wear the tights daily for a three week period, and during that time, wearers have reported a 2cm reduction on each thigh, and their skin appeared smoother!
Speaking about the product, a spokesperson for the UK brand said: &#8216;The demand that we have seen for these tights is truly unprecedented.
&#8216;The technology and clinical tests have shown positive results.&#8217;
But due to the &#8216;technical sophistication&#8217; of the product, the spokesperson added that the tights &#8211; priced at 25.48.for a pack of three &#8211; are &#8216;by no means cheap&#8217;. 
These revolutionary tights use caffeine as an active ingredient, which is introduced into the fibre using micro capsules andthe body temperature causes them to act on the skin. Wearing SKIN KISS on a daily basis for up to 28 days, it has been shown that the caffeine can reduce the thigh measurement by up to 2 cm and tightens the tissue of the legs in particular. Further results seen aresmoother and suppler skin, improvement of the skin elasticity, visibly improved appearance of the skin and comfort.
Dermatological tested. The effect lasts up to 5 washes.

      <link>http://www.stilettojungleblog.com/2012/02/found-katy-perrys-super-bowl-party.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Looking for a new pair of less-than-functional sneakers that will look fabulous? Look no further. Super cutie Katy Perry wore an absolutely fabulous pair of white wedge sneakers to perform at the DirectTV Super Bowl party in Indianapolis this past weekend. These wedge sneaks are fun, and, although you can't exactly run a marathon in them, they're likely much more comfortable that most of the shoes in your wardrobe.So, want to snag Katy Perry's Super Bowl party wedge sneakers for yourself? She's wearing the very popular Ash Thelma Sneakers. Now, Katy isn't the first celeb we've spotted wearing Ash's funky leather sneakers. Back in November we spotted Anne Hathaway wearing the Ash Virgin Sneakers -- a flat cousin of the Thelma. But, I kind of like the wedge Thelma a bit better. The height adds a little extra something to the already stand out look. The Ash Thelma is currently available for purchase online in a range of versatile colors -- from black, to grey, to beige, to red. Personally, I'm loving the beige version, which is available at Saks. But, if you absolutely must have the stark white version that Katy wore for her performance, you can call the Mercer Street Ash store in NYC to order directly. &rarr; Buy the Ash Thelma Sneaker in Beige, $200.00, at saks.com.&rarr; Buy the Ash Thelma Sneaker in Red, Black, Seal or Stone, $199.95, at nordstrom.com; shipping and returns are free.&rarr; Buy the Ash Thelma Sneaker in White, $160.00, at Ash NYC:  44 Mercer Street, 646-422-7098.

      <description><![CDATA[Looks like Beyonce will continue to be the envy of onlookers. The slim, superstar singer stepped out publicly in New York City for the first time since giving birth to her daughter, Blue Ivy, to celebrate her husband Jay-Z's upcoming concert dates at Carnegie Hall.Merely a month after welcoming her new bundle of joy, Beyonce's body looks as if it's already bounced back into shape. Last night the new mom was spotted at the 40/40 club wearing a reddish-orange, Alice Temperly dress that accentuated her curves and of course a pair of embellished Christian Louboutin heels to top off her pulled-together look.Beyonce at her first public appearance since giving birth at the 40/40 Club in New York City.I must admit, I didn't have a hard time dropping my baby weight after having my daughter in 2010, but I credit it genetics and breastfeeding. Not sure what Mrs. Carter's secret is, but I'm sure we'll here about it in due time.If you're a mother, how long did it take you to flaunt your pre-baby body again? How did you drop the weight?Subscribe in a reader]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[What the what? Chocolate & Strawberry Facial Clay Mask]]></title>
      <link>http://clumpsofmascara.com/2012/02/freeman-beauty-chocolate-strawberry-clay-mask.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve heard it all when it comes to facial care products. Milk moisturizers. Carrot cleansers. Sugar scrubs. But pull my finger and call me Susie because I&#8217;ve never heard of a Chocolate AND Strawberry mask. Sounds so&#8230;tasty, uh? Not that I&#8217;d go around slurping up a face mask, but you know what I mean. Freeman Beauty has taken two tasty ingredients, thrown &#8216;em in a mask and told us to slather it on our faces.

Like they had to tell me twice&#8230;

My skin (per usual, pfftttt!) has been actin&#8217; up something serious so I was due for a good facial mask treatment. Aaaaaand I was excited to see bentonite listed on the ingredient list.

I&#8217;ve used bentonite clay before on my skin and hair and have had amazing results. The mask also contains some other ingredients I don&#8217;t like to use like parabens, synthetic fragrances and dyes but my curiosity got the best of me, so I flipped the top and got to work.

Fragrance-wise, the mask smells lovely. It has a prominent chocolate smell with lower notes of strawberry. When it goes on the face, the smell mellows out and you get more of the clay-smell. The texture is goopey and feels like like wet clay. Since &#8211; I guess that&#8217;s what it is. I can&#8217;t say that it looks pretty through.

I could make a baby diaper joke but I&#8217;ll leave that one alone.   I sloshed the mask alllllll over.


The tube didn&#8217;t give me a specified wait time but I left it on for a good 10 minutes or so. It hardened but didn&#8217;t get flaky and dusty like some clay masks can get.

Pro&#8217;s
-It&#8217;s cheap yo. $3.99 for a 6 fl. oz. tube. Woot!
-It&#8217;s easy to apply.
-It rinses thoroughly. It didn&#8217;t get stuck in my eyebrows.
-It smells sa-weeeeet!
-My skin felt cleaner after use but I didn&#8217;t notice any major differences.
-The fragrance was subtle. Which is a great think. Strawberries and chocolate smell wonderful but too strong of a smell and it can bring on a headache.
Con&#8217;s
-If you suffer from dry skin (I do), this may not be ideal. Within seconds of washing off and drying, I had dry patches all over my face.
-The ingredient list. Since I have acne-prone skin, I like to stick with preservative free products and I wish this baby had less friends on the ingredient list
-The color isn&#8217;t pretty. I know, I know, what can I say? I like pretty colors and this one just looks icky. So do most clay masks though so I can&#8217;t knock Freeman Beauty for that one.
If you&#8217;re in the market for a new mask, I say give this one a try. Freeman Beauty has a mess load of other facial care products and if their ingredient lists aren&#8217;t too extensive, I will definitely give them a try.
You can get this and other Freeman Beauty products from Walmart, Ulta, Duane Reade, CVS, Walgreens, Drugstore.com and Kroger oooooor, you can buy it online.
Whatcha think? Would you try give this mask a spin?]]></description>

5 Lovely Lilac &amp; Lavender Eyeshadows
Purple can be a hard color to nail, and even lighter variations of purple can be tough. For those who love the idea of purple but haven&#8217;t found a good way to wear it yet, consider a lighter shade, which can be easier to work with.

      <title><![CDATA[Lorac Unzipped Collection for Spring 2012]]></title>
      <link>http://dailycookie.net/2012/02/lorac-unzipped-collection-for-spring-2012/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[
Its that middle season where swimwear is slowly just starting to hit the racks. And so comes images of warm, bronzed makeup and beach hair. While these looks are more typical of Summer collections, the Lorac Unzipped Collection makes it their own for Spring 2012.
A refreshing break from the cool pastels of many Spring beauty products, Loracs Unzipped Collection will easily carry you over to Summer. Check out some of our picks!


Lorac Unzipped Shimmer &amp; Matte Eye Shadow Palette ($40 US): Create flattering neutral eye looks with the help of these ten rich eyeshadows and the included mini Behind the Scenes Eye Primer. This set is exclusive to Sephora and promises to be a popular item in any makeup stash.

Lorac Lips with Benefits Lip Gloss ($18 US): As good for your lips as they are pretty, these glosses are meant to hydrate and nourish lips with Acai Berry, Pomegranate Extract, and Vitamin E and C. The Crme Brule fragrance and the high shine finish in a variety of colors invite reapplication.

Lorac Tantalizer Highlighter &amp; Matte Bronzer Duo ($32 US): This huge compact takes the guesswork out and makes touch-ups wherever easy. The convenience of a dark contouring shade and shimmery highlight hue guarantees cheekbones that pop! Apply sheerly or layer for more intensity to vary your look.

Lorac Unzipped: The Nude Collection ($34 US): This Ulta exclusive set shows you how to get the look Lorac created for Spring, complete with products for the eyes, cheeks, and lips. Color wise, the bronzy eye quad, peachy gloss, and plum blush would look especially fabulous on ladies with warm undertones.
