Liv Tyler Complains About Jowls At 36: Plastic Surgeons Say Cheeks Maintain Youth.

Oh, Liv Tyler...You sound so silly.

This striking woman, the daughter of rock legend Steven Tyler has opened up and been honest about her own fears of getting older. At age 36, we still think Liv looks lovely, as this recent photo shows.

Liv spoke to Glamour magazine's July issue in which she admits seeing some changes happening to her famous face, but that she's taking these observations in stride.

....."The jowls I got from my dad seem more pronounced. I've got a couple of grey hairs,' Liv added. "But I've noticed that when I'm happy and healthy on the inside - eating well, laughing with my best friend - I feel more beautiful on the outside."

So, could a woman in her 30's already develop jowls, the lower part of a person's cheeks, especially when these are fleshy or drooping.

Yes, it's possible, especially if your bone structure features a longer face + jaw, whereas a fuller, rounder face can develop a turkey neck + more sagging below the chin.

It IS tough for women to start aging when our society doesn't like to see the female species get older.

Keeping killer cheekbones will maintain one's youth say most plastic surgeons. And if you feel your face is too flat, you CAN fake it.

We stumbled onto one of the BEST YouTube videos about what fillers can do for INSTANT face rejuvenation. Take a look at this from Dr. David C. Mabrie, cosmetic surgeon, San Francisco area.

Amazing!

Summertime Means Sexy, Skinny White Jeans!

Cindy Crawford is already showing off a pair. And she looks FAB in them--from behind and in front. You supermodel, you!

We like the effortless ease of Cindy's ensemble:

skinny white jeans
button down, turquoise shirt
belt
and saddle, wedge sandals

Perfect. Simple and NOT trying hard.

A pair of skinny white jeans should be a staple in EVERY gal's closet. These pants look nice on EVERY shape. It's a CLASSIC.

We found a glam pair here at 6PM.com:

 The Hudson Collin Mid-Rise Skinny in White Studs (on sale, $143).

Skinny white jeans are everywhere and at every price.

Here's another pair from BooHoo.com:
 The Hero Optic White High Rise Skinny Jeans ($55). We think EVERY body looks sexy in skinny white jeans, from thin to curvy.

CG Bombshell Volume Mascara: Thumbs Up By Paula's Choice But Buyer Beware Of Losing Lashes?

CoverGirl has always enjoyed a great reputation for makeup.....until now. The gigantic beauty company has picked up some major buzz, and it isn't complimentary, either.

One young woman has come recently come forward to complain about CG's Bombshell Volume by LashBlast Mascara. She claims she lost several lashes because the formula makes it difficult to remove the waterproof mascara.

And she is not alone. We have been reading a few more complaints about the Bombshell's hard, sticky, clumpy mascara that is "impossible to remove."

The formula is comprised of a 2-step process---1. mascara  2. top coat.

How could CG Bombshell mascara be a DUD if actress Sofia Vergara wears it + promotes it for the brand?

Even expert beauty reviewer, Paula's Choice, has given CG Bombshell Volume by LashBlast Mascara HIGH 5's, the BEST of the BEST for 2014.

BUT-------Under CONS.....Paula's Choice does admit this:

Requires extra effort with makeup remover to make sure it's all off.

And Paula's Choice DOES again mention the difficulty trying to remove this formula:

"Bombshell Volume wears all day, without smearing or flaking. It's actually difficult to remove completely without extra effort, even using an oil- or silicone-based remover; your regular cleanser will break this down only to a point, so be sure to have makeup remover handy!"

CG suggests using their CoverGirl Clean Eyes Makeup Remover for Eyes & Lips ($4.99, at Walgreens.

Read on. These Makeup Alley reviewers aren't shy about their distaste of CG's Bombshell mascara and the possibility of losing lashes trying to remove the stuff.

Now...Does this concern you about Cover Girl Bombshell Volume by LashBlast Mascara?

And will giant company CoverGirl take action to either improve the formulaor toss it out of their mascara lineup?

Jessica Seinfeld Takes Big, Blonde Beauty Risk: Is It A Fail?

We have said this several times before---- NOT every, dark-haired woman can be blonde and have it look right.

It's a very tricky maneuver, because it's ALL about your skin tone. And even the BEST of stylists can get it wrong. Somehow the blonde shade here just looks off.

Forgive us for selecting famous woman in her own right Jessica Seinfeld, the wonderful wife of super famous Jerry Seinfeld.

42-year-old Jessica has good, healthy hair to begin with. Hair professionals would agree that's a major plus when deciding to do ANY serious, hair transformation.

Hair grows back. Period. And Jessica isn't too attached to her locks, anyway.

“Everyone is asking me why — and basically, ‘Why not?’” said Jessica to People mag. back in May. "I have no attachments to anything physically,” she continued. “My husband always says, ‘I wish you were more materialistic.’ I just have no attachments (to things) so I don’t care. If I hate my hair, it will grow."

And Jessica had excellent professionals leading the way with Sarah Spratt, her colorist who continued the major transformation with New York City stylist Rheanne White to make Jessica's cut — with its rock-and-roll vibe — match the color.

But as cute as Jessica is, we don't think this blonde shade is complimentary to her skin tone. As L.A. celebrity stylist + master colorist Kim Vo has always emphasized to us,  your complexion is key:

Kim Vo: Skin tone is the most important factor in deciding your perfect color. It takes a professional eye to determine, but for a simple read, use the veins on your wrist. If your veins are blue, warm tones like chestnut and auburn tones are for you. If your veins are more green, caramel and golden hues will compliment you. If your veins are blue/green, then warm and cool tones can be added seamlessly. 

For any of us who fool around with hair color, a darn good conditioner is essential.

Everyone Still Talking About Rihanna's Racy, Almost Naked Dress at CFDA Awards

Yes, Rhinna is a gorgeous woman and one, hot tamale....BUT-----
her racy, so sheer, crystal-embellished almost naked dress
was, well...er...kind of vulgar for the CFDA Awards in NYC Monday evening.

When folks can see your areolas, honey, it's time to re-think the dress.

There is a very fine line between sexy and un-sexy. We can only imagine what Ms. lady-like Anna Wintour was thinking as she posed with the statuesque star.

Rihanna knew all eyes would be upon her entrance + exit, as she gracefully accepted this year's fashion icon award.

Maybe a couple of pasties and nude thong would have made this dress work, but we're still not sure.

Meanwhile....we LOVED Rihanna's glam, sequin head scarf + smokey makeup. That was flawless with penciled, full brows, subtle bronzer, sexy, dark lined eyes and soft, nude lips.

Want to copy Rihanna's pale, nude lips?

Then try this one by NARS Pure Matte Lipstick in Madere ($26, at Sephora).

Lovely Lupita Turns Heads In Bright Blue Eye Shadow

Lupita Nyongo'o is quite beautiful, hence People magazine's most beautiful woman of 2014.

No arguments there. And we like how Lupita takes fashion chances. Alright, her choice for the Met Gala was a fashion bomb, but at least she took the risk and did it with style + confidence.

Just recently, we noted a beauty risk the Academy Award winner took at 2 very public events.

The first was at the Veuve Cicquot Polo Classic at Liberty State Park in Jersey City, N.J. over the weekend. Lupita looked lovely. And we're digging the black, big-brimmed hat---Nice!


But what we're really adoring is the bright blue eye shadow usually seen as a beauty DON'T.

And then again, Lupita wowed us with a glam, cropped jumpsuit at the CFDA Fashion Awards event Monday night. And there's the bright blue eye shadow, once more.

Blue eye shadow is actually pretty with dark brown eyes like Lupita's.

Makeup artist Nick Barose told InStyle.com how he created Lupita's makeup look:

"When it comes to summer makeup, don’t overthink it—blue is actually easier to wear than you imagine. The key is to keep the application simple."

With a wet shadow brush, Nick  applied the cobalt shade from Lancome's 5-Pan Eyeshadow Palette in Midnight Rush ($50; lancome-usa.com), and blended it all over her lids and diffused the color past the crease. "I smudged it around the eyes to create kind of a soft smoke," he says.

"The blue is already such a statement, so go easy with the application, and keep it uncomplicated."

Will you try bright blue eye shadow this summer?
