Looking For All Natural Skin Care? Pick Up Some Sprout

If you've been hunting for some serious skin care products that can get the job done without irritating your complexion, and don't contain ingredients you can't even pronounce, then consider the Sprout line. Sprout is a small Brooklyn-based company.

This skin care company makes up its collection of cleansers, scrubs, exfoliants, lip balms, etc., in small, fresh batches. And it's all-natural, packaged in simple, clean glass containers.

For instance, let's take a closer look at Sprout's Cleanser ($24, at Sprout.com). The formula is very kind to your pores:

..."It’s gentle, non-drying, and contains no alcohol. Plus it smells awesome. We start with a traditional organic rosewater-and-glycerin base and add a tiny bit of organic tea tree oil. No soap, no alcohol, no para-sulfate-whatchamacallits."

Gwyneth Paltrow's a big fan of the all-natural Sprout line.

Great Lash Introduces Teal, Purple, Blue, Green Mascaras!

You better hurry up and grab yours now!

Maybelline is running a summer promotion just for the month of August. It's a limited edition of Great Lash, launching 4 new colored mascaras ($6, at drugstores)----Totally Teal. Pop of Purple. Blink of Blue. Go Go Gree.

Will you catch the trend, ladies?

If you're over 40, well, maybe this isn't something for you, but----the amazing colors are quite tempting. And if you're shy about wearing anything but black or brown, maybe for a night out, a glam pop of color might make it a bit sexier.

We once wore navy blue mascara, and against dark brown eyes, wow---it's really gorgeous! As long as you keep a subtle lip along with it, we think you'll be just fine.

Stella McCartney and Dior were showing off the colored mascara trend during February Fashion week. Check out the photo. Stella made a great choice for the models. We think she looks beautiful, and she's got cobalt mascara on. It looks purple, but, stunning, nonetheless.

Would you wear this beauty trend?

E! hostess Giuliana Rancic is having an incredible time these days. She and husband Bill are anxiously awaiting the birth of their baby via surrogate. The blue bundle-of-joy is due at the end of August.

Meantime, the Fashion police star is busy at the Olympic games in London. There she is in the bottom photo holding her black leather Chanel bag close to her side. The 37-year-old breast cancer survivor is also excited to launch her signature clothing line with HSN in late September.

She spoke with the joeyparkermovement about her Affordable, Easy Collection:

"The main reason I wanted to create a clothing line is because I wanted women across the country of all shapes and sizes to be able to purchase fun, trendy and wearable clothes every day! By working with HSN on “G by Giuliana Rancic,” I am able to connect with my fans and tell them my story. I love that they can call in and ask me questions!

Mama Kelly Ripa Gets Botox Re-Fill When Her Kids Notice

Botox.

It's still the number 1 cosmetic injectable. And yeah, probably 99% of Hollywood lovelies get pinched by the needle every 3-6 months to stay wrinkle-free. So, it comes as no surprise to allegedly hear that even NYC famous Kelly Ripa gets Botox, too.

But in her case, it's kind of unique for Kelly to recognize when she needs a Botox re-fill.

Huffington Post repeated a little tabloid gossip that's been going around. And we're going to share it, too, because we admire Kelly Ripa's honesty in a world of pampered, pretty celebrities.

If this rumor is true, at least the Emmy-award winning daytime host is keeping it real.

As most people know, Kelly and her family spend their summer weekends at the Hamptons. The TV star was reportedly overheard making these remarks:

"I work out absolutely every day. I don't overeat. I try to drink water but I prefer wine, and when all else fails, I get Botox injected right here, right into my forehead, as much as possible."

But that wasn't it. Kelly continued talking about the magic Botox injectable:

"Oh, you know when you really need it?" she said. "It's when my kids start asking me if I'm mad at them, and I go, 'Why do you think I'm mad at you?' They go, 'Because you're frowning.' I go, 'Oh no! I am? I'll be right back!' Give me Dr. Brant: He's the best, he is my real husband," said Kelly.

That's hilarious, if it is in fact, true. Kelly Ripa's forehead looks very smooth, and we don't note any elevens, or those two frown lines in between the eyebrows. Botox is especially effective for ironing away forehead lines and creases between the brows. We do see a few light crow's feet by the outer eyes. And that's about it. At age 40, Kelly Ripa is holding it together well.

If you aren't wild about getting poked repeatedly with a Botox needle, you could try the non-needle Botox. The British have developed organic Natox for $139.99:

No needles organic Natox - pain-free alternative to invasive anti-wrinkle injection products.
Lines become reduced - Smoother and refined skin tone.
Skin becomes more firmer and plump.
Improves hydration.
Creates luminous complexion.

Does it work? Well, some people love it. Check out the Natox website.

We're certain the results would not be as dramatic as the real Botox by needle, but if an over-the-counter beauty product can hold back the frowns for a while, it's worth a shot.

Kate Hudson's Sexy Eyeliner Tip Any Gal Can Do

Actress Kate Hudson wears it. And we wear it every day.

We are hooked on eyeliner, and have been for many years.

Our makeup trick is to use black liner on the upper lid, and dark brown liner on the lower lid.

That little beauty nugget comes from Kela Wong, Rachel Bilson's talented makeup artist.

Here's Kela's advice, and we think it works!

1. Wear black eyeliner pencil along the top lash line only.
2. Then apply a dark brown liner on the bottom.
3. "It keeps the eye open," Kela explains.

Lovely Kate Hudson has her own goof-proof eyeliner beauty tip:

"Put liner underneath the upper lid," she told People magazine. "It makes your eyes pop even more." That is known as the water line.

If you want to learn how to line underneath the upper lid, check out this YouTube how-to by MakupByEman.

Beverly Hills Housewife Star Adrienne Maloof: Favorite $8 Beauty Tips

Never a dull moment on Bravo reality TV. We just learned today that Beverly Hills housewife star Adrienne Maloof is splitting from her prominent plastic surgery husband Dr. Paul Nassif. The couple have three sons and have been together for nine years.

Just a few months ago, it appeared that everything was just fine. The blonde beauty was happy to share a couple of inexpensive beauty tips. One is for her favorite beauty product. And the other, her go-to-nail shade:

"Define-a-lash lengthening mascara by Maybelline," she tells Gigisaffronever.com. "I have pretty long lashes but this just adds more length without clumping and is a beauty bargain. I also love a pink or nude lip gloss over YSL Rouge lipstick." Define-a-Lash Lengthening Mascara.

I’m wearing “Mademoiselle” by Essie. I love a classic look and neutral polishes are very pretty. I’m also a fan of a french manicure." Mademoiselle ($8.00).

Adrienne Maloof released a statement to RadarOnline.com: 'I'm so sorry that this is happening but my children are my life and sometimes we need to do what's best for them.'

She added: 'It's an unfortunate situation but, I have to have my kids best interest at heart.'

We have since learned that the Bevery Hills Housewives reunion show for Bravo is going to be filming tonight at an undisclosed location, and that Adriennne may bow out.

By the way, Dr. Nassif is asking for the separation.

We wish the couple all the best.
