From glosses that "smell like moth balls" and "feel like little bits of broken glass," it's safe to say that these are best left in the 99 cent bin. Don't waste your money on these awful lip products.


See the list

Hello Gorgeous!


How are you this fine day? Prom on your mind? Wedding perhaps? Well, here are two products from Neutrogena that may be able to help you get your prom pretty on and bridal beauty together!


In the photo I am holding the WAVE cleanser by Neutrogena and it's perfect for doing deep cleaning to get skin it's most radiant. The secret to really good makeup is having even better skin!


Just like a painter-if you start with a great canvas you can ensure a great picture!


The other item is spf 30 sunscreen filled retinol based anti-aging lotion from Neutrogena. It is perfect for the bride or person who wants to do some light resurfacing and improve texture while protecting skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays.


Even though the lotion is Retinol based-it's very mild and I have not experienced any stinging or tingling that is common with Retinol products.


Something important to know is that the WAVE cleanswer is waterproof-meaning it's designed for use in the shower as well as sink side and if you happen to drop it and submerge it-trust me, it will still work! Or at least mine does!


Both of these products are available at mass retailers near you! Like Walmart, Target, CVS or Walgreens. To learn more visit http://www.neutrogena.com/ Remember: you are beautiful! Thank you for visiting the blog and check back for promotions and beauty giveaways!

Read interview secrets


Hello Gorgeous,


It was announced this weekend that former vice presidential candidate and first woman to do so Geraldine Ferraro passed away. In my opinion, she paved the way for Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann. I quote :Alex Eichler of The Atlantic Times – Sun Mar 27, 10:42 am ET "Geraldine Ferraro, the first woman to be nominated for national office by a major political party, passed away on Saturday, from complications related to multiple myeloma. She was 75. Ferraro made history in 1984, when, as a Queens Congresswoman, she accepted the Democratic nomination for vice president and joined Walter Mondale in his attempt to unseat President Ronald Reagan. Mondale and Ferraro's campaign would end in historic defeat--Reagan won 49 out of 50 states that year, and received more electoral votes than any presidential candidate before or since--but Ferraro's presence on the ticket was nonetheless groundbreaking. "


Well said Alex. She was beautiful in many ways and for her service to my country, I thank her! Though, I definately would have put a different hair style on her and applied more eye cream. God rest your soul Mrs. Ferarro!

Lady Gaga hair falling out?

TotalBeauty.com
Fabulous Wavy Hair Makeover

One Total Beauty reader gets a dry curls overhaul. See her "after" photo


Fabulous Wavy Hair Makeover

This is a TotalBeauty.com makeover article

Our makeover team from the Warren Tricomi Salon Los Angeles transforms reader Nisa's dull, brown, frizzy waves into luxuriously smooth, highlighted curls. The new look gives her the wow-factor she deserves with the low-maintenance style she needs.

See her transformation


oh Happy Saturday Gorgeous-enjoy this!
Lady Gaga has revealed that her hair has started to fall out as she constantly dyes it.

Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, talked about her hair loss and beauty secrets to PEOPLE magazine (via Daily Mail).
Gaga, a natural brunette, said that she misses her dark hair when she goes to "get a chemical haircut because my blonde hair is falling out."
She also said that she sleeps with her makeup on seven days a week. "That is not good for your skin, but I'm blessed with good genes."
The singer revealed that she always uses sunblock on her face, saying that she does not like to tan her face as it is bad for wrinkles.

The 'Born this Way' singer said that Princess Diana was one of her beauty influences along with her mother Cynthia Germanotta.

Gaga advised fans that the best beauty tip she could give would be to "Just go with your gut." She added, "Whenever you try to be someone else, it's boring."

When asked what was the one treatment she would likely get from a spa, Gaga immediately revealed it would be a foot massage. She says she would need it to relieve her aching feet from constantly wearing her outrageous sky-high heels.

Last month Gaga revealed that she stays slim by following what she called 'The Drunk Diet.'

"I am on the drunk diet," Gaga said. "I live my life as I want to, creatively. I like to drink whiskey and stuff while I am working. But the deal is I've got to work out every day, and I work out hung over if I am hung over. And it's about the cross-training and keeping yourself inspired. I have to say, I do a ton of yoga."

Basic Healthy Hair Tips From NYC Dermatologist Dr. Channing Barnett www.barnettdermatology.com

Chemical damage from hair dyes, perms and products that straighten the hair are major contributors to hair damage that occurs over time. However, Dr. Barnett says what many people don't know is once hair is damaged you can't repair it.Once hair is damaged, the protective lipid layer is gone, causing frizz, "bad hair days", dryness and a dull appearance. For women with damaged hair, Dr. Barnett says moisturizing conditioners are necessary. “One of the most common misconceptions about hair is that it is alive, when in fact hair is nonliving and does not heal itself once it is injured,” said Dr. Barnett. “For this reason, once the hair is damaged it cannot heal itself except through new hair growth at the scalp. Women need to understand that the very things that they do to hair to make it appear beautiful, such as using hair dyes, perms and products that straighten the hair, will eventually end up damaging the hair’s structure and ultimately affect its appearance.”Products to minimize the effects of hair damage include conditioning shampoos in combination with hair conditioner during the rinse. Dr. Barnett also says hair products with dimethicone can restore shine, reduce static electricity and make hair more manageable. Serums applied to the hands and run through the hair – but not the scalp – are also recommended. If you wish to dye your hair, use colors as close to your natural shade as possible and go darker rather than lighter. Natural hair color is always best though says Dr. Barnett. Frizzy ends, hair breakage and the smell of burned hair signals damage from too much heat. Dr. Barnett explains the condition is known as "bubble hair".

“Think of hair like a piece of steak – it starts out nice and soft and flexible. But when you cook it, the steak changes texture and becomes hard. Similarly, hair transforms when exposed to heat over time, resulting in brittle hair that breaks easily. Protecting hair from too much heat is essential to maintaining healthy hair.”

The only way to repair heat damaged hair is to get it cut and let it regrow, but moisturizers can help some. To prevent more damage,, let hair air dry. whenever possible. Use low heat settings at first when using a blow dryer then gradually increase the heat. Buy hair dryers with variable temperature settings. To avoid damage from a straightening iron, use a moist towel between the iron and the hair.

Barnett warns salon straightening with keratin is even more damaging because of strong chemicals. Women considering should not do s if the hair is tightly kinked. Avoid frequent treatments and use plenty of conditioner. When it comes to styling, Barnett says, “It is best to choose a hairstyle closest to your hair’s natural structure and color as possible, which will minimize hair damage. Be sure to consult your dermatologist for any questions about styling products, concerns about the appearance of your hair, or unexplained hair loss.”

Tips for maintaining healthy hair include wearing a hat to avoid sun damage, choosing shampoo and conditioner for your hair type and applying conditioner on the hair ends rather than the scalp. Make sure to wash the scalp and wash more often if hair is oily. To keep hair looking healthy, avoid processing, straightening and dyeing and be generous with the conditioner to minimize the effects of damaged and brittle hair.

Hello Gorgeous!
Today I was reading a newsletter and it was about emergency preparedness for your family in the event of a disaster! (God bless Japan and speed the healing of that great nation!)
So as I continued to read, I realized that just because there is a natural disaster there is no reason to look bad when it's bleak!
So my emergency beauty bag now contains:
1. Sunscreen
2. Eyedrops
3. Mascara
4. Dark green eyeliner
5. Eyeshadow-dual compact with light beige and brown this way I can do my eyebrows, a simple day makeup look or smoky eye.
6. Dual finish compact for use as foundation and powder
7. Nude lipliner
8. High pigment gloss with spf
9. Comodynes face wipes to remove all my emergency makeup
10.Travel set of brushes (powder/blush/slant tip/eyeshadow)

Phew! I'm ready for anything now! Read below and think about it!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*NOTE* This is a newsletter I received and found it interesting, maybe you will to? I got it from Off The Grid News. Enjoy!

This has been the decade of disasters. Beginning with the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 that saw the destruction of the Twin Towers to the nightmarish aftermath of Hurricane Katrina; from massive flooding and wildfires in the United States to devastating earthquakes in Haiti and Chile; from Mexican cartel incursions across our border to the mass killings at Fort Hood; and now the unprecedented destruction in Japan that has seen coast-side cities wiped off the face of the map and nuclear power plants melting down, the last ten years has seen an ominous spike in events that only makes disaster preparation that much more of a necessity for all of us.

It doesn't matter if it's a situation that happens in your home, in your community, at the workplace, at a state or national level... if you're not prepared, the cost of that inaction can be greater than anything you've ever imagined.

The ice storm in northeastern Oklahoma in December 2007 left thousands without power for a week or longer.

Few were prepared.

Major floods in July 2008 overwhelmed Iowa and portions of Illinois. Thousands fled water-filled homes, but it was a week or more before power was restored. Because of flood contamination, there was no drinking water, and the sewers were overflowing from the deluge.

Hurricane Ike devastated most of the coastal area of Galveston, Texas in 2008, and once again, all systems of infrastructure they had relied upon for years were gone in a moment.

If you were placed in a situation where the TV newscasters were warning you to get out of an area or batten down the hatches, would you be prepared? Would you even know how to prepare? If you answered "No" to both those questions, don't worry... you're not alone.

According to an article in the December 18th, 2006 edition of USA Today, "The non-profit Council for Excellence in Government [has] developed a Public Readiness Index as part of its report, rating people's preparedness on a one-to-10 scale based on answers to 10 questions. The questions range from whether people know about their community's disaster plan and how to find the emergency broadcasting channel on the radio, to whether they've prepared a home disaster kit and established a meeting place for family members.

The average score on the index was 3.31."

And this more than five years after 9/11 and a little more than a year after the devastating hurricanes that wiped out New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. The thing most dangerous to a nation's citizens doesn't appear to be their government.

It seems to be their complacency.

What's On Your Preparedness List? Do You Even Have a List?

The recent ice and snow in the Southeast this winter drove home an inconvenient truth.
If you try to prepare for an emergency while it's upon you, you will fail.

The words "snow" and "ice" had barely left the meteorologist's mouth before Walmart's parking lot was overflowing. Bread? Nothing left. Milk? Forget it. Canned goods? Nope. Water? Better figure out a way to melt ice and snow.

I went home to cupboards that, while not bare, were not exactly stocked with items to get me through an ice storm. I was going to have to get pretty creative. And then it happened.
My central unit died.

I didn't even have an alternative heat source. There was no sense in getting out to find a spot heater either. Those were gone before the bread and milk.

I wasn't too smart. I had let my "I'll take care of that tomorrow" attitude get in the way of smart thinking and preparation, and now I faced something that could, if events ran along the same vein as the last ice storm we faced, put me in a perilous situation.

I didn't even have a list that I was keeping of items I needed. It was all in my head, stuffed in the back behind what I considered more important things and pursuits.



What I Needed...

...besides a big kick in the backside, was Solutions From Science's manual Gone Before You Get There.

The report shows you a ton of ways to get out of any mess that a panic driven shortage or meltdown may bring your way. Like when the power goes out and it's freezing cold outside. The report shows you how to stay warm when everyone else is getting cold!

You'll also learn...

The things you absolutely must have in your house before any crisis strikes.
How to have all the pure drinking water you need without buying an expensive filter!
Which 3 food items have an almost indefinite shelf life
4 grains that have a two year shelf life
Gone Before You Get There covers short-term and long-term preparation needs. It covers everything from natural disasters to bug-out situations. For example:

What do you do when the power goes out?
What are the 8 survival habits that can save your life?
Why do you need more water in a crisis?
How do you keep your pets alive?
What are the 77 items that leave the store shelves the quickest in an emergency?
What items need to be on any preparedness list?
Gone Before You Get There answers these questions and many more. It provides you with solutions for many disaster situations you may encounter. In addition, it gives you a list of items that needs to be on anyone's preparedness list, as well as an appendix of valuable resources and websites to help you prepare for any emergency.

In the middle of a crisis, when the meteorologist is telling you to head for the hills, is not the time to begin looking for supplies. Order your copy of Gone Before You Get There today, to prepare yourself for the uncertainty of tomorrow.

SHAPEEZ, THE ULTIMATE BOSOM BUDDY

Introducing the Unbelievabra, the Multi-Purpose Bra that Will Change Lives

Recently, Oprah proclaimed that “choosing the right bra can change your life. The right bra can reverse aging; it can make you look 10, even 20 pounds lighter.” Unfortunately, most women have not found the right bra for them: they are stuck in a traditional bra with uncomfortable elastic bands around the body, straps that are constantly slipping off the shoulders and, the worst part – back fat and bra bulge.

Every woman has been on the hunt for their perfect bra, but until now, their options have been limited. The Unbelievabra by Shapeez is an all-in-one bra and body shaper that provides superior breast shaping and support while eliminating bra lines and back bulges. Based in the USA and manufactured in North America, the Unbelievabra is a breakthrough in garment technology. Made from the company’s patented ‘smooth-back’ design (no back bands or closures), the Unbelievabra is constructed with breathable cool-tex lycra that fits snugly to the body providing a close, lean, and supportive fit. It also wicks moisture away from the body keeping you cool, dry and light.

“Your bra should be like your best friend: always offering support and comfort, while helping to make you look good. However, traditional bras rarely meet these expectations,” says Staci Berner, Creator of the Unbelievabra by Shapeez. “Although women can share similar body types every woman has a different body shape. Traditional bras are not made to fit a variety of body shapes and don’t do even the slimmest bodies justice,” says Staci.

Introducing the Unbelievabra, Your Multi-Functional Bosom Buddy
The Unbelievabra by Shapeez is the ultimate answer to a common and conspicuous fashion dilemma – bra lines, back bulges and a muffin top. “Your bra should not make you look heavier than you are. Even slim girls are affected by this. If you are wearing a traditional elastic band bra, you will have back bulges which will ultimately add pounds,” says Staci. “On the same vein as panty lines, visible bra lines (VBL) is a major wardrobe faux-pas. It enables women to wear clothes which fit precisely the way the designer intended, without the outline of the top being ruined by unsightly bra lines and bulges.
Fashion Meets Function
Designed to provide a woman with superior breast shaping, lifting and support, the long line styles of the Unbelievabra are also an effective tummy smoother to instantly slim your waistline and smooth out the dreaded muffin top. “It’s the perfect way to get a natural ‘nip and tuck,’” adds Staci. “The right shapewear can instantly slim and flatten your problem areas, taking inches off your figure. Our products are helping to pave the way for a healthy and positive outlook on women’s bodies giving women more self confidence right off the hanger”.

The Unbelievabra distributes the weight of the breasts across a wider area on the back which promotes better posture and may help to reduce shoulder and back pain.

The Ultimate

The Ultimate is an all in one garment that supports and shapes your breasts, slims the torso, and seamlessly removes all visible bra lines and back bulges with our patent pending "SMOOTH BACK" design. Retail Cost: $85.00 Available Colors: Nude & Black Size Range: 32A-44D

§ Long length to tuck into pants and skirts with a NO ROLL Hem

§ Shoulder straps will never fall down

§ Perfect to wear with your low-rise fashions to get rid of the dreaded "MUFFIN TOP"

The Shortee
The Shortee is a cropped version of the Ultimate and provides great back-smoothing and support without the tummy control. The Shortee has a shorter, curved front to eliminate any rolling or riding up and is waist length in the back to give you the smoothest appearance from every angle. The Shortee bra makes a great alternative to the traditional sports bra! Retail Cost: $75.00 Available Colors: Nude & Black Size Range: 32A-44D
