Designer Dimples: Newest Cosmetic Surgery Trend--Takes Only 10 Minutes

Dimples are, well, just darling!!

Look at actors Eddie Cibrian and Jennifer Garner. How hot are they?! And those delightful dimples have a lot to to do with the attraction. Gabrielle Union. Mario Lopez. These celebrities, too, share incredible dimples.

We can't believe this.....in fact, we read about this little beauty nugget yesterday, and couldn't believe it. Yes, you can now design your own dimples. We're talking, a little bit of cosmetic surgery, only about a 10 minute procedure and then, poof! Instant sex appeal!

And if you already 'own' one dimple (like we do), you can add another to match.

No, we're not sure exactly how this new cosmetic surgery trend called dimple-plasty is done, but it must involve the area between the muscle and the skin. As we understand it, an incision is made inside the mouth.

Don't worry. It's an outpatient procedure. And you're under local anesthesia. It does take a while to heal properly, up to a month, but when it's done, your smile will look extra dazzling with your brand new dimple(s)!

Cosmetic surgeons charge between $2,000 and $5,000 for a dimple-plasty procedure.

Bethenny Frankel Loses 30 LBs In 3 Weeks After Baby

Congratulations, Bethenny Frankel, on the birth of your new baby girl, Bryn! And also, for losing 30 lbs. in just 3 weeks following your C-section on May 8th.

Wow! That's a lot of post baby weight. And apparently, Bethenny's success in melting away the fat, has some new moms a little, well, flabbergasted.

Add to the mix, that the reality television celebrity, at age 39, was able to get into a size 4 bathing suit in 3 weeks following the birth of little Bryn, and well, a few women do get a little jealous. Just check out the comments page here. My goodness!

According to an article in US Weekly, the star of The Real Housewives of New York City, had gained 35 pounds of baby weight, and through a doctor's plan, was able to quickly shed the lbs.

But today's New York Post has interviewed Peg Moline, editor-in-chief of Fit Pregnancy, and she wishes Bethenny would have been more careful about the message she is putting out there:

"I'm concerned if she's taking care of herself, getting enough rest and enough food, and not obsessing about losing the weight so quickly.

"I worry about the message that sends to the rest of us out here, who aren't invested in that 'skinny girl' persona and don't have trainers," Moline adds.

In Bethenny Frankel's defense, the new mom is breast-feeding, which helps one melt away the extra weight. And she is also very big on nutrition and diet. Let's face it.......Bethenny is a firm believer in yoga. She has a DVD, Body by Bethenny. And we all know about her Skinnygirl line of cocktails, the cookbooks, and so forth. The woman is no fool.

According to US Weekly, Bethenny had her own healthy plan:

"Frankel stayed active while carrying Bryn, alternating yoga with 45-minute walks three times a week, and practiced portion control with a vegetarian diet.".

Here's a sample post-baby diet of Bethenny's these days:

A muffin and fruit for breakfast.

A veggie sandwich and soup at lunch.

And BBQ chicken and a half a sweet potato for dinner,.

Although we are not a big fan of Bethenny and her often big mouth, we applaud her for getting back to her pre-baby weight, and doing it the smart way. We think she looks great.

Get Bikini Ready With Dr. Oz And His BEACH Diet Plan

Dr. Oz wants to get you bikini ready, ladies! And he has one simple word: B.E.A.C.H.

That's right.....The Dr. Oz BEACH Diet Plan. Does it work?

Yes. We tuned into to Dr. Oz a few months ago, when he featured 3 working moms from Detroit, who were going to follow his diet plan to knock off some major LBs. And did they ever! All three lost between 30 and 60 lbs. each, after 4 months. And these ladies look fabulous.

Why should you follow Dr. Mehmet Oz and his B.E.A.C.H. Diet Plan? After all, he is a cardiothoracic surgeon. Okay, that he is, but we believe he does know nutrition and how to keep the body fit and healthy. Plus, Dr. Oz has written 7 books. He's no fool. So, let's take a look at the B.E.A.C.H. diet:

B: Stands for 'breakfast.' Dr. Oz says you need to eat a healthy breakfast. "Eating soon after you wake up in the morning gives you the calories and energy you need for the day and kicks your metabolism into gear." He suggests scrambled eggs on whole wheat toast or a bowl of whole grain cereal, for example.

E: Eliminate the Simple Carbs. Noty an easy feat...that means giving up any breads, pastas, cookies, muffins, etc. that area all made with refined white flour and sugar. Say no to white potatoes and white rice. The 'E' also stands for Exercise. Take the stairs. Walk the dog. Bike. Dance. Move! "Every two pounds you lose trims an inch off your waistline," says Dr. Oz.

A: Antioxidants--add them to your diet. Good carbs like fresh fruits and vegetables. Low in calories, you can have two or three helpings.

C: Chocolate. Dark chocolate, that is. Yes, on Dr. Oz's B.E.A.C.H. Diet Plan, you can indulge ina few bites. A little dark chocolate can satisfy your cravings for sweets. Look for some with 70% cacoa.

H: Hydrate your body with water. Say no to sodas, beer, and sports drinks loaded with sugar and lots of calories. Especially in summertime, your body needs to be nourished and hydrated

Mac To The Beach Seahorse Marine Life High-Light Powder Almost Sold Out!

High-Light powder. A key to summer beauty.

MAC To the Beach Makeup Collection's Marine Life High-Light Powder ($26, at fine dept. stores)---a must! But good luck hunting down the beautiful, peachy, pearlized, shimmering seahorse-embossed highlighting powder. Women want it, and it's almost SOLD OUT! at most MAC makeup counters.

And of course, there is always Ebay. We found several available online. The highest going for $61, so far, with 15 bids, and 2 days left to auction here.

What's so special about this MAC To the Beach Marine Life High-Light Powder??!!

It's warm and delicate and just lovely for those summer days, when you want to bring a subtle glow against your bronze skin. After the golden overspray disappears, this highlighting powder acts as a blush, and a very pretty shimmering peachy coral pink.

The seahorse embossed on the powder is so lovely, you might not want to take a swipe. It's pretty just to look at. And we think that most women adore seahorses and the childhood mystery that goes along with these tiny, delicate creatures from the sea. That is probably what is sending women into a frenzy, trying to 'fish' for one of these MAC highlighting compacts.

If you already own the MAC High-Light Powder, good for you. We think this will keep you looking pretty by the sea the entire summer.

Summertime Means John Frieda's Sheer Blonde Entourage

Blonde. Blonder. Blondest.

Okay, we'll admit it: Blondes seem to have more fun, especially in summertime.

And yeah, we sometimes get jealous of all the attention blonde hair gets. We once heard gorgeous brunette Jaclyn Smith talk about how heads would turn for Farrah, when she and the most popular Charlie's Angels actress would walk down the street together.

And we even get envious of all the special blonde hair products created just for women with light hair. Hint: John Frieda.

No, we cannot be blonde Sure, we have tried. We used to take our little spray bottle of Sun-In and spritz our dark hair with it at the beach. Of course, our hair got light and brassy, but still, we liked our sexy, not so pretty blonde highlights.

Our good friend Paula. had the most beautiful blonde hair we had seen. She would get a wild, curly perm in summer and then add even more blonde highlights, and turn up the WOW! factor.

We hope Paula is reading this today, because we're looking at stylist John Frieda and his new line, Sheer Blonde Entourage. He's got two knock-out shampoos that let blondes go lighter and brighter!Any blonde can use these new Sheer Blonde shampoos--natural, color-treated, and highlighted blonde gals:

New Sally Hansen 14 Day Nail Shield With Easy Peel Off Strip

Perfect nails.

No, we certainly don't have them. In fact, we were just in the dirt on a farm, picking ripe, luscious strawberries for about an hour.

Don't even ask us about our nails. We abuse them constantly.

And hopefully, Sally Hansen's new 14 Day Nail Shield ($6.99, at drugstores) can offer the nail-challenged some relief.

So, what's in the box? We asked 'Sally':
Pre-treated, sheer color strips instantly bond to nails for maximum protection and strength, with a hint of color.
These sheer color nail strips give an instant manicure.
The color infused strips go on dry so there is no drying time or smudging.
Strips won't chip up to 14 days.
Choose among 3 sheer color shades---Sheer Nude, Sheer Buff and Shell.

Hmmm. A one-size fits all nail strip??!!

It sounds good on paper. All you have to do, is select a strip size. Remove the clear protective cover. Peel off the strip; and apply to a clean, bare nail. Then file off the excess..

True, it ain't rocket science, but the size of the 16 strips in each box is somewhat on the large scale. So, it would appear, that you are going to have to use a little muscle, to get these to properly fit each nail. Reminds us of the Sally Hansen French Nail strips. We had a heckuva time trying to manuever those into perfectly mooned arches. And yet, the idea was a clever one.

The great thing about Sally Hansen's new 14 Day Nail Shield, is its concept. No drying time and an instant manicure with a pretty and very shiny coat.

We'd like to hear what you think about these easy, peel off nail strips.

Is it a 'do' or a 'don't'?
