Want To Be 'Sexy Forever?' Suzanne Somers Has New Diet Book


Another How-To book by Suzanne Somers?!

Yes, and this one is called Sexy Forever. We love the title, and the book tells you how to 'shed toxins and balance your hormones to fight fat after 40.

Hey, don't knock it, until you've read it. Sixty-something Suzanne Somers has had 10 books reach the NY Times bestseller list. So, the woman knows how to grab the attention of an audience.

In addition to the new diet book, Suzanne also has SexyForever.com, a companion website, to help people lose weight online, with a 7-day free trial. After that, it's $4 a week, and you can cancel anytime.

The former actress-turned author has been promoting her new book on television shows like Today, where she claims 4 factors get in the way of weight loss after 40.

Suzanne says that there are toxic chemicals everywhere, and these are stored in our fat deposits. Imbalanced hormones, which occur as we get older, are also a factor, as well as stomach disturbances. The 4th factor comes down to food intolerances, because we aren't able to properly process these.

In the book, she tells you how to re-charge your metabolism and de-toxify your life. And don't forget the Sexy Forever shop. You can buy supplements, organic skin care products, appetite control patch, low glycemic sweetener, and more.

Suzanne Somers has been known to play the fool as a comedic actress, but folks, don't kid yourself. She is quite smart and has built an amazing empire based on looking and feeling youthful. How much of that is via plastic surgery, who knows.

Take a look at her website, and you will see product after product, book after book, and so forth. We couldn't believe how many things she's got going on at SuzanneSomers.com

Will You Go Citrus This Spring With Flirty Orange Lipstick Trend?


We can almost smell the beauty of all things Spring. March is almost here, so let's take a look at one of the hot beauty trends for the warmer days of 2011.

Orange lipstick. And keep it matte, ladies. Even dusting a little translucent powder on top of the lipstick, does the trick. Check out one of the models wearing the striking shade at Marc Jacobs' show.

Don't knock it, until you've tried a shade or two. Makeup artists say that fun and flirty orange lips make your eyes pop and compliment every skin tone. We like that!

There are tons of orange lipsticks out there. Some are very bold, and others, a bit more demure. You don't have to spend $50 for a tube to get your citrus-fix. If you're not sure about liking orange lipstick, why not go cheap and try Milani's Mandarina. Very pretty. Very flattering tangerine. Quite opaque And just $4.99 a tube.

Like red, you have to dare to wear a shade of orange. We think it looks best with a clean face, or simple minimal makeup.

Let us know what you think of Spring's flirty orange lipstick.

Body Brushing And Brown Sugar Body Scrub Perfect In February



A daily dose of good hard body brushing and showering with a heavenly brown sugar body scrub. Just incorporating these 2 simple beauty steps in your routine, can give you back softer, smoother skin. And it's time to step up the exfoliation during the cruel month of February.

Yeah, it's winter, and the air is dry and cold. And it's time to 'Feed your skin,' ladies.

Step #1. Before showering, it's very beneficial to dry body brush. Great for the dimpled derriere and other cellulite-prone areas...like thighs, upper arms, and belly.

Says who? Anushka.

Anushka who operates the world-renown Cosmedical Centre, Spa, Salon & Cellulite Clinics in New York City, has been an authority on cellulite and its prevention for more than 3 decades. And her wonderful website AnushkaOnline features cellulite treatments, target exercises, nutritional recipes, the ABC's of cellulite, and more.

Circulation can really help tone down cellulite and bring back smooth, taut skin:

Keep moving.....Anushka's a firm believer in taking a large natural bristle brush, and using the brush daily to give those areas special attention. "Dry brushing helps eliminate dead skin cells which make the skin look smoother. And it also improves lymph and blood circulation. I recommend a soft, natural bristle brush. Start at your feet and continue upwards in a circular motion towards the heart. Use once a day."

Step #2. Showering with a wonderful body scrub/polish completes the body exfoliation process. Try Fresh Brown Sugar Body Polish Treatment ($65, 140z. tub, at Sephora).

This is a super gentle and effective body scrub. Every body should exfoliate. Your skin needs to get rid of dry skin cells and rough patches, especially at elbows, knees, and feet. But you also need to bring the moisture back, And this invigorating body polish by Fresh, does just that with almond oil and other all-natural ingredients like ginger root extract, peppermint, and citrus oils.

Perform Steps #1 and #2 daily, and your body will thank you.
