Beauty products that help you fake a rested look

2007-02-06T02:08:00.000-08:00

Most often, those helpful people who always let you know how tired you look aren't really concerned with how rested you are - they're really just saying, "Wow, you look awful today!" Their unspoken message clings like a bad bumper sticker for the rest of the day: Look at me, or maybe don't - I look awful! And yet, despite their crazy schedules and HDTV, our favorite over-40 newscasters never seem to look "tired." Their faces seem eggy and smooth, their eyes sparkling and alert, their expressions serene. Of course, having a personal makeup artist doesn't hurt, but with a little effort, it is possible to look as fresh as they do. Looking rested is "all about the skin and the eyes," so to get immediate results, don't bother with lipstick or skin care regimens that can take weeks to work.

Thayer said his firm reupholsters and restores furniture, just like his grandfather, Edwin Thayer did when he started the company in 1955. But they also build a lot of furniture, especially French country furniture. A number of their pieces are included in Tulsa designer Charles Faudree's book "French Country Signature." Among the work they've done for Faudree were two custom headboards for the Los Angeles home of "Will and Grace" actor Leslie Jordan.

Celebrities reveal beauty and grooming tips

2007-01-23T02:10:00.000-08:00

Kinalap ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) ang mga grooming at beauty tips ng inyong mga paboritong artista. Narito ang kanilang mga tips: Tip # 1: Remove your make up. Agree ang mga beauty experts na bawal ang matulog nang naka-makeup. Bukod sa madudumihan ang bed sheet mo, nakaka-clog ng pores ang makeup. At kapag na-clog ang pores mo, maari kang magka-pimples at iba pang skin blemishes. Kailangan ding makahinga ng iyong muhka. Ayon sa Pinoy Big Brother host na si Mariel Rodriguez, "You should always remove your makeup before you sleep. Kahit gaano ako kapagod, tinatanggal ko yung makeup ko as much as possible. Pag hindi ko kailangang mag-makeup, hindi ako nagma-makeup. Kung hindi na kailangan, wag na, because I'm sure maganda ka na." Tip # 2: Be comfortable with yourself.

2007-01-21T02:08:00.000-08:00

Herbst LaZar Bell, the world's largest privately held product development firm, announced recently that it has collaborated with Unilever's internal design team and Dove Global Design Director Richard Seymour to develop a new initiative for Dove's "Campaign for Real Beauty." The theme of the campaign centers on a droplet design for the new Nourishing Hand Wash products, a never-before-seen look that turns the old bottle upside down and emphasizes the pure natural form of a droplet. "When Dove initially set out to launch their 'Real Beauty' campaign, they counted on us to help develop a truly beautiful solution," stated Mark Dziersk, Senior Vice President of Design and Marketing for HLB. "The new hand wash bottles, along with the droplet theme not only illustrate the beauty of this individual product, but also the cohesiveness of the entire 'Real Beauty' product line." The new package is strategically designed to imitate the shape and curvature of the Dove soap bar, giving it an iconic form factor that communicates the brand promise - a gentle, natural solution for washing hands.

Stomach this: Health and beauty tips for that troublesome gut

2007-01-17T02:09:00.000-08:00

That cheese- and sauce-laden pizza sitting in the office lunchroom looks splendid. Too bad you can't even look at it without getting heartburn. However tempting, you pass up the fried chicken, too. We've all struggled with the difficult choice between satisfying our taste buds and preventing a long night of digestive discomfort. The stomach and digestive system are hard to ignore. Whether there's bloating and pain because of something you ate or emotional distress because of width, your belly demands attention. "Having a fit and attractive core - waistline, tummy - helps us to feel confident and good about ourselves," said Rayna McInturf, co-owner of Hoopnotica Inc. in Marina del Rey, Calif., which offers Hoopdance classes. "Having a strong core helps us maintain good posture and helps prevent back pain and injury." Heather Villarreal, clinical dietitian at Saddleback Memorial Center in Laguna Hills, Calif., said that carrying weight around the abdomen increases the risk of developing diabetes, cancer and heart disease.

UVALDA (AP) - Crews from as many as 14 southeast Georgia fire departments battled a blaze today that destroyed two buildings of a beauty and barber supply company. Firefighters were able to prevent the fire at Lady Renee Industries from spreading in high winds to a nearby building that contains chemicals used in the manufacture of supplies such as shampoos and conditioners, officials said. The blaze erupted in a building where chairs and other furnishings are manufactured about 7 a.m. and also consumed a showroom next door before it was brought under control about five hours later, said Jo Toole, whose family runs the business. Just two of the seven or eight employees who work in the assembly building were there at the time, and one was injured, Toole said.

Icelandic company Ensímtaekni ehf., which is experimenting with penzim, a natural enzyme extracted from cod, has signed a contract with five foreign companies.

On the Utility of P/E Ratios Going Back 70+ Years

2007-01-03T02:09:00.000-08:00

Geoff Gannon submits: After my last post, Bill Rempel (among others) inquired about the difference in normalized P/E ratios over different decades. He felt a standard applied across 70+ years might not be particularly useful today, because so much has changed (increased participation in equity markets, different monetary policies, etc.) As a result, it might be that while "relatively cheap" is better than "relatively expensive" within each time period, it is inappropriate to compare years from dissimilar decades as if the same standards applied. I agree. So, over the next two posts, I'll try to give you an idea of what the compound point growth in the Dow looked like following the low normalized P/E years and high normalized P/E years within each decade. In other words, I'll look at low normalized P/E years and high normalized P/E years relative to other years in the same decade.

Red wine? Stars' beauty secrets revealed

2006-12-30T02:08:00.000-08:00

The two entertainment reporters joined to write the book after realizing they had a collection of beauty tips from reporting on celebrities. They stocked up when Kim Basinger told them to use scuba-diver oil on their faces. They bathed in red wine after Teri Hatcher told them it softens skin. They were shocked when Jennifer Aniston said she washed her face with Neutrogena facial soap. The book is like People magazine, but with beauty tips you might actually use. Not that I'm going to waste good red wine in a bath anytime soon, but I hope I'll always remember the wise words from Susan Sarandon, that happiness is the true beauty weapon. Maybe you don't need tips. You just need to know what to buy. You might consider The Beauty Buyble: The Best Beauty Products 2007 by Paula Conway and Maureen Regan.

"I thought we were playing well (early in the second), and all of a sudden it's like a snowball effect."

Trevelyan a minute in and Kris Versteeg with 9:27 left, but could get no closer. Martin St. Pierre added an empty-net goal for the final score.

Adam Burish assisted on four of Norfolk's six goals, tying a franchise record.

Tips on enhancing your skin beauty

2006-12-17T02:08:00.000-08:00

Beauty of the skin starts from inside your body! Your skin needs fresh air, exercise, a proper diet minerals and vitamins and it needs protection from the sun. Many people just put skin cream on their skin, thinking it is going to ‘make it soft and smooth.' Skin cream on the skin feels soft and smooth, but if you want your skin to benefit from that cream, you need to dampen your skin first, then add the cream. The cream will help retain the moisture in the skin. *Start walking and building up your muscle tone. Muscle tone will keep your skin from looking so soggy. *Keep your skin clean. Do not scrub face. The face does not need scrubbing. And, neither does your back. In fact, the more you scrub it, the more acne you get and more trauma to your skin. Use a warm face cloth with a non-chemical soap on your face, rinse gently and dry your face with a soft clean towel.

Beauty tips and tricks, PT. 2

2006-12-11T02:10:00.000-08:00

Singers, celebrities and models may be born with a natural look, but they all have tips and tricks that help keep them looking their very best. Here are some of the best-kept Hollywood secrets for healthy, beautiful skin. Dry Skin Go easy if your skin is dry or sensitive. If your skin feels dry, rough and flaky when you touch it, it needs extra tender-loving care with the following routine: 1) Cream off makeup and dirt with a super-fatted cleansing cream, morning and night. Apply all creams and lotions with an upward motion. It's stimulating to the skin and helps prevent sagging. Note: Vitamin E oil is also known to slow the aging of skin. Dab it on problem areas that show signs of aging. I offer my patients Vitamin C drops, which are a terrific anti-oxidant for the skin.

Team India: To p(l)ay or not to p(l)ay

2006-12-09T02:08:00.000-08:00

Why is it so difficult for us to accept that Team India is going through a collective rough patch? We don't shout at our politicians for years of non-performance, for wasting precious tax payer's money by boycotting Parliament months on and for playing with the countrymen and women's sentiments at every possible opportunity. So why should our cricketers rightly or wrongly elevated by us to the positions of leaders, role models, idols, in some cases even demi gods have to pay with their contracts and salaries for non-performance? Before blaming the players for their recent poor run and the debacle in the one-day series in South Africa, especially the match in Durban that triggered the issue, you need to ask some questions to the people who run the game. First, why did the BCCI not schedule enough practice matches in South Africa? Second, why did the Board not organize a coaching camp for the players at Mohali so that they could adapt to the pacy conditions? And third and most important, where is the bench strength in a cricket-crazy country like India? It's easy to say that we should send back Virender Sehwag and Suresh Raina, to name just two of the Indian top order that has consistently failed to deliver in the last six months.

Beauty Ads Pull Women's Legs Selling Unnatural, Useless Products

They say that 10 percent of modern man's thinking is based on reason. The remaining part rests on myths; it is something handed down from generations of ancestors. In other words, we are likely to believe or doubt a piece of information without thinking it over or analyzing it in most cases. Ad agencies and sales managers are well aware of these peculiarities and use them to their advantage for selling more goods and cosmetic products. The majority of myths are neatly exploited through ad slogans meant for female customers. Ad writers' male chauvinism is probably to blame for the situation. Ad writers seem to view women as somewhat irrational creatures driven by a highly unpredictable way of reasoning and mood swings. Below are some of the most typical catch phrases used by ad industry specialists for selling cosmetic products to female customers: 1.

2006-09-22T03:08:00.000-07:00

The cells of aborted babies are being treated like a fountain of youth for women at unregulated clinics outside the United States.

Flying with beauty products takes some extra planning

2006-09-12T01:01:00.001-07:00

New federal regulations prohibiting liquids, gels or lotions in carry-on luggage have put the squeeze on some popular makeup and beauty products.

The list of banned items can change almost daily, and security personnel have discretionary powers. So you should be prepared to toss things, says one expert. ''You have to plan and carry items you can afford to throw away. It's a pain, but you don't want to take a chance,'' says Victoria Kirby, beauty editor for Allure magazine.
