Celeb Makeup Artist Pat McGrath Says Micro-Pedi Best Groomer for Callused Feet

Celeb makeup artist Pat McGrath is in high demand these days. The U.K. cosmetics expert is one of the best in the biz. Just ask famous faces like these:

 

Madonna, Oprah, Jennifer Lopez, Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Aniston.

 

When it comes to personal grooming, Pat comes across lots of products. She is a gadget freak, and one of her faves is the Micro-Pedi, for callused feet.

(We hate to admit this, but we suffer from callused feet and are so tired of using a razor-based metal callus scraper).

 

 "Forget the Ped Egg; this is it for feet," Pat says. We believe her, and we're going to try this one. Let's see how the Micro-Pedi operates: We found one for $27.95 at Amazon:

 

The Micro-Pedi features a unique roller that spins 360 degrees for quick results. It's battery-operated and effectively buffs away rough, dry and callused skin in seconds. It's gentle, too.

It's sandal season and there's nothing pretty about calluses!

Sheryl Crow Says Fountain Of Youth Comes From Estee Lauder Jar

Would you pay just shy of $200 for a jar of skin cream?

Celebrities do. Of course, they can afford any price for a younger-looking complexion.

We all desire beauty products that REALLY work.

And Sheryl Crow has claimed she's found the perfect one from the Estee Lauder brand:

Estee Lauder Re-Intensive Age-Renewal Creme ($190, at Macy's).

I swear by this cream. I've used it for years, and I feel like I see a difference," Sheryl says.

The  talented singing star must be doing something right. Sheryl Crow is 49-years-old!

This is how Estee Lauder describes this Fountain of Youth in a jar:

"Far more than a moisturizer, it combines proven repair serum benefits, RVF-10™ cell boosting technology and advanced hydration into a single skin-renewing breakthrough.

Now, dramatically reduce the look of lines and wrinkles. Reveal firmer, smoother, radiant looking skin.".

What do you think? Is this jar potent enough for you? Estee Lauder is a well-respected name in the beauty biz. So, we say it's a good one to try.

Hitting The Beach? Play Safe And Cover Your Ink!

Dear Readers: We got destroyed by a nasty computer virus recently, and finally are getting all our stuff back together. Thanks for your patience! XOXO, J. Tania

Let's be honest.If you've got some great ink, then you want to keep it that way.

And if you worship the sun, be aware that those powerful rays CAN cause gradually fading of your precious tattoos. Oh yeah. The sun accelerates color loss.

 So, what's a sexy gal with her sexy tats to do?

Cover up! Coppertone has a wonderful product that does just that. It's called Tattoo Guard and it protects your ink from the strong UVA/UVB rays. This stuff will stop tattoo fading + blurring. It's a pretty genius product.

We found the Coppertone Tattoo Guard Stick for $5.99 at drugstore.com.

Apply liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure.  Reapply:  After 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, immediately after towel drying or at least every 2 hours.

We think this is a good ink protector!

Kourtney Kardashian Showing Off Slim Figure In Chic Shorts Sets

Kourtney, we LOVE your black Prada bag, of course. But we are also heart-ing your super cute shorts sets, if that's the proper fashion verbage.

We think Kourtney Kardashian looks fab, especially being a mom-of-2 recently. Younger sister Kim ALWAYS gets the attention, but we think it's time the eldest K-sister got some compliments. The proportions of her shorts sets are just right and make her petite stature look slim and tall with legs a mile long.

The reality show star just tweeted a picture of bags + bags + bags of clothes she no longer wears. You can scoop them up because Kourtney promises the fashions will soon be up for sale on Ebay.

Will you try on the new chic shorts sets trend?

Is the 7-Minute Workout Really Worth The Time + Effort?

12 exercises--7 minutes.

It doesn't appear to be that difficult, but these are high intensity circuit training movements with only 30-seconds rest in between.

So, what does this brief but rigorous mini workout really do for your body?

It's all the exercise you need. That's if you believe the American College of Sports Medicine's Health & Fitness Journal. According to them, all that's required is your own body weight, a chair and a wall, to help you get it done.

"There's  very good evidence" that high-intensity interval training provides many of the fitness benefits of prolonged endurance training but in much less time, said Chris Jordan to the NYTimes.com. He is the director of exercise physiology at the Human Performance Institute in Orlando, Fla., and co-author of the new article.

Does this intensive workout help you lose weight?

Yes.

"The incorporated  resistance training contributes significantly to the amount of fat burned during a workout. When resistance training exercises using multiple large muscles are used with very little rest between sets, they can elicit aerobic and metabolic benefits."

Watch GMA's Claire Shipman try the 7-Minute Workout.

Could you complete this very intensive workout?
