Keep Your (New)Chin Up, Bristol: You Look Amazing

Okay....if you haven't heard about or seen the new Bristol Palin, watch out! We're not sure you'd even recognize her right away.

Ever since the reality star and daughter to former Gov. Sarah Palin stepped out recently at a red carpet event, tongues began wagging, and haven't stopped since. There was talk about Bristol dropping a significant amount of weight, and getting a darker, new hair color with most likely, hair extensions. But it was much more than that.

It was her sculpted chin. Gone was the pretty, round-faced, full-cheeked gal, and here arrived a more glamorous, well-defined set of features on a mature young woman.

So, come to find out....it WAS more than a makeup,hair color make-over. Bristol Palin admits, it was surgery. And experts are claiming it was plastic surgery:

"I had corrective jaw surgery," Palin told Us Weekly. "Yes, it improved the way I look, but this surgery was necessary for medical reasons ... so my jaw and my teeth could properly realign ... I don't obsess over my face."

Bristol is only 20-years-old. Should that make a difference? And exactly what does corrective jaw surgerymean? Did she really have a chin implant, a nose job, brow lift, or mini facelift, too?

Who's to say. Bristol Palin will be starring in her own forthcoming reality show alongside her Dancing with the Stars friend, Kyle Massey on the Bio channel. And 2-year-old son, Tripp will also share the TV spotlight.

The question begs-----Was Bristol Palin advised to drop lbs. and get some plastic surgery BEFORE getting her new reality show? Or did she, herself, feel the pressure that so many young women like Bristol feel, in measuring up to Hollywood standards?

We think Bristol Palin was pretty BEFORE the surgery. But we also think she looks amazing AFTER the surgery. And if her round face and chubby cheeks really bothered her before, then we can understand her desire for a self-esteem boost.

How To Get High Rosy Celebrity Cheekbones With Rose de Rose Highlighter

Ladies....are you envious of those high, seemingly perfect cheekbones with the seemingly perfect blushing glow on celebrity after celebrity? Charlize Theron, Emily Blunt, Kim Kardashian, Kate Bosworth, Penelope Cruz......

Sure, most Hollywood beauties invest in an incredible makeup artist, but there are tricks and technqiues that you can follow, too, for that red carpet luminosity.

So, let's take a look at one, little beauty product that might cost a bit more than the rest, but that promises to give you a flush, like no other.

We are talking about a highlighter from makeup 'By Terry.' The artist, Terry de Gunzberg, once worked for Yves St. Laurent in makeup design. And what we adore about her cosmetics line is the concept of bringing out the luminosity of the skin. That's where her 'magic' highlighter comes into play. The product that will give you those rosy, plump cheeks is called, By Terry Rose de Rose Sheer Liquid Highlighter ($54, at barneys.com. It's available in Amber Rose, Fresh, and Coral.

The texture of this liquid highlighter is amazing. It's a micro-gel formula that smooths your complexion and adds a wonderful luminous flush.

Simply, apply the rosy highlighter to cheekbones, and then add your own blush to the apples of your cheeks. And you WILL see a captivating warmth and definition to your bone structure.

It isn't always easy trying to imitate the brilliant work of a professional makeup artist, but when it comes to blush, that is one beauty product that adds instant warmth and depth to the face, even when you are keeping your makeup to the minimum.

Don't be afraid of putting on highlighter/blush. Every woman looks lovely wearing some.

Beauty Tip Today: Lovely Lace Cami----2 for Just $12!

Here's our Beauty Tip Today 'Deal of the Day'------a lovely lace cami, just $7.80 for one, or 2 for just $12!

We found these comfy cotton/spandex, lace-edged camisoles from Wet Seal in a rainbow of pretty colors, along in some neutral shades, too.

A cotton camisole is a beautiful basic and you should have a few in your wardobe.

Why?

That's easy. It's a super, layering piece. You can wear it under a blazer, under a sweater, as a top alone, or even to sleep in. And anything with lace is really hot this season, and adds a bit of femininity to your style. More importantly....you CAN'T beat this price. We paid close to $40 a few months ago, for a lace-trimmed cami, and it wasn't half as cute as Wet Seal's.

We like these Big Lace Camis from Wet Seal, because they aren't too short, but actually fit like a tunic and cover the butt. The camis also come with adjustable straps and measure 30" from shoulder to hemline. Length may vary by size.

Check them out here.

Just a reminder----Wet Seal runs in junior sizes. But these cute, lace camis come in S, M, L, and XL. So be sure to go up a size if you wear a Misses.

Kate Middleton Chose Princess Scent Of White Gardenia Petals: Fragrance Now Sold Out!

Here it is, ladies......a new Kate Middleton beauty tip:

Princesses prefer to smell like a bouquet of white gardenia petals.

And now there's a mad dash to try and hunt down a $150 bottle of Illuminum White Gardenia Petals, the very same fragrance that the most famous princess in the world wore last Friday in her royal marriage to Prince William.

There's just a tiny problem here----the lovely fragrance has now SOLD OUT!!!

However, we have found one, lonely bottle of Illuminum White Gardenia Petals on, where else---but Ebay! We will give you the click in a few moments. But first......what kind of perfume is it?

We have since learned, that Princess Kate's go-to-fragrance is not a very well-known brand. In fact, we searched through several UK online perfume sites, and none of them even sell the suddenly, much sought after Illuminum fragrance.

But, now all that has changed, quite wonderfully for the Illuminum company:

"There's been a phenomenal response across the world," Illuminum spokesman Michael Donovan told a U.K. newspaper. "Orders have come in from dozens of different countries, but most of our customers have come from the U.S. It's charming to think that so many people abroad are interested in the wedding."

Here are the top, middle, and bottom stats:

"White Gardenia Petals opens with coconut (yummy). The floral trio - jasmine, lily of the valley and ylang-ylang form the heart, laid on the base of amber wood."

It is available in bottles of 50 (1.7 oz.) and 100 ml (3.4 oz).
By the way, Illuminum White Gardenia Petals was launched in 2011.

Okay, here is the Ebay link for Princess Kate's wedding day fragrance. Good luck.....click here.
