British Study Says Men Don't Really Like Women In Lots Of Makeup

Well, it's just one study, and it was conducted across the pond over in the UK.

And the results are rather interesting. Here's the big reveal with 3 key points:

1. The study found that men prefer women when they wear less make-up.

• 2. In many cases, men preferred the opposite sex to wear 40% fewer cosmetic products.
• 3. It also found women think fellow females look better in natural make-up.

Oh, really? We're not sure about that.

According to the British publication, Daily Mail, the results speak for themselves.

"The take home message from this study is that our ideas about what the opposite sex find attractive are often inaccurate, whether it relates to body size, weight, or even something like make-up use," continued Dr Alex Jones, a psychologist involved in the study.

"The misconceptions play a role in body image and self esteem issues and are sadly based on simple misunderstandings."

The study conducted at Bangor University will be published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology.

Okay....so gentlemen + most ladies, too, here are a bunch of celebs who got snapped WITHOUT makeup on.

If you all think this is really attractive, then well, we will just say nothing more. We think everyone looks even lovelier with mascara, blush, gloss, etc.

Lisa Rinna's Lips Look Larger Than Almost 4 Years After Lip Reduction Surgery

Maybe we just need better glasses, but we aren't alone in this thought. People have been remarking about Lisa Rinna's lips, again. Yes, the lips curiously look larger than when she had lip reduction surgery back in August 2010.

The sexy, former "Days of Our Lives" star said her voluptuous mouth made her who she was in Hollywood. But it was a bad filler called silicone that hardened her upper lip, creating an over-inflated, odd-looking shape to her pretty mouth. 

This is what she said one year ago on the "Today" show

"Here's the story: 25 years ago, I had my lips injected with silicone. Stupid thing to do at 24," Lisa told Hoda Kotb.

"I did it with my best girlfriend, so she and I go and we get our lips done," she continued. "Fine. I have it like that for my whole career, right? So then cut to a couple of years ago, I have a doctor remove as much as they possibly can because it got to the point where they were yucky. You know, they get hard. It's gross. So they are now whatever that was after they took out as much of the silicone as they could."

Now, one year later and Lisa's lips appear as large or almost as large as the silicone pair she had in 2009 and those 20-plus years prior.

Lisa Rinna Post-surgery 2/2014

So, what has Lisa possibly done?

She might have had, we emphasize 'might', a better filler injected, such as a Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers like Juvederm + Restylane. These fillers wear out after a few months.

We think Lisa Rinna's lips appear inflated, once again, but in a smoother, more natural way.

What do you think, dear readers?

Rippa Is Ripped: Kelly's Breakfast Secret Contains Avocado

We all know and love Kelly Rippa from "Live with Kelly and Michael."

And there's no secret here: Rippa is ripped!!

You won't find an ounce of fat anywhere on Kelly's body. Possibly in her little, belly button, but that's about it. The woman is ultra-light but quite muscular for her tiny size.

The daytime star is a work-out freak and disciplined dieter. You will either LOVE Kelly Rippa's physique or hate it.

And it hasn't been easy for Kelly to ignore the constant, cruel tabloid headlines and comments about her such as, anorexic, eating disorder, boy's body, and so forth.

We don't know Kelly Rippa, but we do see a fit body.

Is she scary skinny, like a lot of folks say?

Well, we think she is down too fine, especially after having seen the actress spend a number of years on the former soap, "All my Children." There she was much heavier if we can use that term, and she looked equally gorgeous.

Today on "Live with Kelly and Michael,", the topic of breakfast came up. Kelly admitted that she doesn't indulge until AFTER the show, which ends at 10 AM.

She used to have this for breakfast:

Greek yogurt with blueberries + pistachios mixed in.

This morning, Kelly Rippa introduced her new fave breakfast:

mashed avocado on an English muffin with red pepper flakes.

Kelly was raving about how nutritious the avocado is, and she is right.

The avocado is such an amazing food on all fronts.  Even babies can enjoy it as one of their first fruits.  The avocado is heart-healthy full of good fats that can lower bad cholesterol.  The soft inner fruit is packed with almost 20 vitamins and minerals, and one serving boasts a mere 50 calories. Plus this little, dynamo with the thick, pebbly skin is cholesterol-free and sodium-free.

We love avocado and we think this is a filling, little breakfast!

Thanks, Kelly!

Kardashian - Jenner Girls Leading The Plaid Parade: Look Remains Hot For Spring 2014!

Rodarte Spring 2014.

We caught this on the runway! Plaid.

Flannel plaid for those warm spring days?

Well, it's still a popular fashion trend, but this is called faux flannel plaid. And it's HOT! The plaid is a print on a lighter fabric.

Still, there are cool days + breezy nights, so a REAL flannel shirt is great way to cozy up in or to tie around the waist as a cool accessory.

The Kardashian sisters and Jenner sisters have all been taking the flannel plaid shirt to the casual level, especially Khloe. And we like the grunge 90's look.

Want to copy Khloe's plaid flannel shirt?

She's wearing the popular Pyrex 23 shirt ($48, one size).

Will you be joining the fashion plaid parade?
