    • I Tried It: Body Contouring Lipomassage

      This is year that I'm going to tighten up my tummy. I mean business. I'm just so fed up with having a mushy muffin-top, and I have no more excuses since I'm not planning on having any more kids. The problem is that after having weathered some pretty big phases of weight gain during my pregnancies, I fear that diet and exercise alone won't give me the results I want. Actually, I know they won't, because it's been a solid year that I've been working out religiously and eating pretty cleanly, and though I've lost a lot of weight, my stomach still spills out of my jeans.

      Since I've given the good old-fashioned muscle method a thorough go (and always will), I've decided that it's time to get some extra "help." I contemplated a tummy tuck, but it seems too invasive, and I freaked out after watching Kate Gosselin's consultation (which also made me feel a little bit better about my stomach

    • Vera Wang's First Makeup Collection at Kohl's

      Partnering with Estee Lauder's BeautyBank, Vera Wang is launching a 74-piece color cosmetics collection for Kohl's that will hit stores this April.

      "It completes my Kohl's universe," Wang told WWD. "Also, a pop of color is such a gorgeous way to let your natural beauty shine through. It's the ultimate accessory."

      The line includes lipsticks, eye shadows, concealer, eyelash serum and more. No nail polish, yet, but she told WWD her daughters are nudging her to do a line. "It's an obsession in my home."

      Because of her belief in the importance of skin maintenance, each product is a combination of color and treatment.

      The products range from $16.50 to $39.50, which is very much in line with her other products currently at Kohl's. At first glance, the line seems to consist of mostly neutrals. We haven't seen any bold colors, unlike other lines coming out this spring.

    • Poll Reveals Bad Hair Days Make Us Depressed

      Ever get in a dire mood from waking up with disheveled, unruly hair? Well, you're not alone. According to Daily Mail, a new poll reveals that women will be moody and depressed for over an hour from waking up with uncontrollable hair.

      One in twenty girls reported that they have been dumped for being grumpy from a bad hair day, while fourteen percent admitted to snapping at their children. However, if a woman is having a great hair day, 56 percent will be nicer to people and 67 percent will have a better day.

      The poll of 2,000 women also shows that women will spend the equivalent of 26 years suffering from bad hair because most wake up with greasy, limp or uncontrollable hair at least three days a week. That's about a third of your life.

    • 6 New Things Curly Girls Need to Know

      Curly hair is no joke. It takes a lot of time and effort to get tousled, touchable hair, so we sat down with the Creative Director of Ouidad to get his expert advice on the latest products and styling tricks. Whether you have tight coils or soft waves, these tips are for you.

      1. Less Is More

      There are several products on the market made to target curly hairstyles, but that doesn't mean you should be layering them all on. According to Morgan Willhite, Creative Director at Ouidad, "Less is more because product build-up can cause hair to look lack luster." She recommends products that are easy to rinse out, like Ouidad Shine Glaze Serum ($20, Ouidad.com), for days when you don't have much styling time on your hands.

      2. Determine Your Curl Type

      Willhite suggests that women with loose curls, like Emmy Rossum, wash their hair 2 to 3 times per week, tight curls should be washed 1 to 2 times per week, and kinky curls only need to be washed once a week. Read More »from 6 New Things Curly Girls Need to Know
    • Are You Ready to Become a Lipstick Lover, Too?

      I have a lot of beauty resolutions this year (lose weight, look younger, wash my face every night, yada yada yada), but one of the more colorful and fun ones is to learn to love lipstick, finally. I've been a lip gloss wearer all my life for the simple reason that it's easy, low maintenance and not really intimidating. Lipstick has always seemed to be more complicated and probably not the smartest thing to apply if you don't have a mirror at hand. But, the downside of lip gloss is that the color fades quickly and if you're not wearing a lot of other makeup, then you look Plain Jane pretty quickly. And the more brightly colored lips I see on the red carpet, the more inspired I am to experiment with something a little more bold, a little more polished.

      Malin Akerman

      Malin Akerman's side-swept hairstyle is the perfect look to kick off our countdown! So easy to do, all you need is a boost of texture and volume from a product like Oribe's dry texturizing spray ($19.50), a deep side part, and a curling iron. Away-from-the-face styles are a great way to show off the newest spring beauty trends.

      The Oscar nominee's polished pixie was as stunning on the red carpet as her fruit punch lip gloss and coral gown. For a platinum hue like Michelle's, give Garnier Nutrisse's color foam in Light Blonde a try. For less than $8, this at-home color deposits evenly around each strand of hair and doesn't drip!

    • Taylor Swift Wears Kayne West Top for Harper's Bazaar

      We're starting to think Taylor Swift is as nice as she looks. The singer wore a piece from Kanye West's spring collection on the cover of Harper's Bazaar Australia, proving that all is forgiven between her and the rapper who rudely interrupted her MTV Video Music Awards acceptance speech back in 2009.

      The magazine went as far as to confirm this on their website:

      "For those who might wonder if the hatchet is buried between Taylor and Kayne West, following Kayne's outburst at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, well, there she is in our story (image 6) wearing a Kayne West top from his first collection."

      Taylor drama aside, we're surprised to see Kayne's collection doing so well after all of the bad reviews he received in Paris last fall. However, fashion editor Christine Centenera, who styled the shoot, also consulted with Kayne on the collection. Are the release of these photos perfect timing or what? The

    • Is Red the Answer to Your Love Life Problems?

      If you find your love life lacking lately, putting on a little red dress or even a red tee may be your answer.

      A recent study by Adam Pazda, a psychologist at the University of Rochester in New York state, found that men rated women wearing red clothing as being more interested in sex.

      10 Ways To Look Instantly Sexier

      The experiment involved men being asked to gauge whether the same woman, wearing a red or white t-shirt in a photo, seems to be more interested in romance. Men graded the woman more open to sexual advances when she was in red.

      Pazda thinks this reaction may be due to our biological makeup. When primate females become fertile, their estrogen levels peak, opening up their blood vessels and turning their faces bright red. Men associate a flushed complexion with fertilization and as the time to man up and go for it!

      So if he thinks you're more open to the idea of sex, he's more likely to head over to your side of the bar and use one of those

      Wrinkle eliminating lasers have been as popular at doctors' offices as botox and laser hair removal, and now PaloVia is bringing the same technology to your bathroom.

      The handheld device delivers short pulses of laser light to the deepest layers of skin, places creams and serums can't reach. It triggers the body to sweep away older, damaged tissue and generate new collagen and elastin. The result is a serious reduction in signs of aging, and clinical studies have clocked visible dramatic differences at 3-4 weeks!
