Always Glam Rihanna Reaches For Just Lipstick When She Doesn't Want To Try So Hard.....

Don't feel like making a full, beauty effort?

We all have days like those.....But you should wear something BEFORE you head out the door, and we're NOT talking colorless chapstick.

Copy Rihanna.


The mega-star spoke to Elle magazine in their September issue. And this is what she revealed:

Her favorite beauty product: “Lipstick. It draws attention away from any flaws. When someone is wearing lipstick, you just assume they’re wearing a full face of makeup. And guys are stupid–they won’t notice when you’re not.”

Well, Rihanna makes a point. Lipstick delivers an instant pop of color + warmth to the face.

Speaking of pretty, painted lips.....There is also Viva Glam Rihanna by MAC.

..."The pop icon brings a bold look to her fierce new VIVA GLAM campaign, accenting her fearless, confident style with shades of frosted metallic mauve Lipstick and Lipglass, in velvety soft red packaging featuring her signature. Also available, the modern red hues of Rihanna’s original VIVA GLAM collection. Every cent of the selling price of VIVA GLAM Rihanna goes toward helping women, men and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS..."

Viva Glam Rihanna Lipstick ($16)

Viva Glam Rihanna Tinted Lipglass ($15)
Plus...Rihanna’s cool mauve is Coming Soon.

Want Longer Hair Really Fast? Then Try These 2 Methods....

When you're trying to GROW your hair out, it seems like it takes F-O-R-E-V-E-R....

Today we are looking at Not Your Mother's Way To Grow Leave-In Conditioner. We found a bottle for $7.99 at ULTA.

Will this hair stuff grow you an inch in one week? Probably not.....But it's got some decent ingredients in it, to help srengthen + encourage new, healthy hair growth.

Procapil is the "magic thing" added to Way To Grow.

Procapil has been called a new breakthrough formula that fortifies hair and prevents hair loss naturally. Procapil combines these ingredients:

Vitaminated matrikine with apigenin and oleanolic acid that make up 2 powerful functions that zero in on the main areas of hair loss.

You could also try the Inversion Method to G-R-O-W One Inch of Hair in 7 Days.....Sort of a cult fave method that some people claim REALLY works. Well, it wouldn't hurt to try it.

 You can research it. The Inversion Method for Hair Growth is all over the internet, especially on YouTube. It involves an scalp oil massage and then bending head over for 4 minutes. Do that once a day, for 7 days, once a month.

We had never heard about the inversion method until today, when we began researching the topic of growing longer hair faster.

So, here it is. Check out this YouTube video by Dessy GT.

And good luck growing longer hair faster!

Orange County Housewife Star Heather Dubrow Stays Youthful With Sculptra Injections

We're still reeling after the season finale of the Real Housewives of Orange County on Bravo Monday night.

The Dubrow power couple were on fire!

Heather and her plastic surgery husband + "Botched" star Terry went on the attack right after the Beadors. What a loony dinner party that was, all laid out in a fancy, Bali-esque theme at Vicki's palatial estate.

So FUN to watch. In case you missed it, take a look at Doctor Terry try and annihilate David + Shannon here on BRAVO.

Meanwhile.....We thought it was fascinating to learn how the wealthy wife of a well-respected plastic surgeon claims SHE maintains her youthful looks at age 45.


Recently, Heather Dubrow was asked by host Andy Cohen ("Watch What Happens Live") if her husband had ever 'done anything surgically' to her, Terry chimed in:

"I fixed an umbilical hernia on her abdomen after the kids."

The former NY beauty queen added of the procedures she has had:

"I get Botox and I get some Sculptra when I get really thin."

There you have it. Botox cosmetic. Yes, many women + men from around the globe receive these popular injections to halt forehead wrinkles + crow's feet.

But Sculptra?

Heather is admitting to facial filler which Sculptra is, but it is more of a permanent filler which commonly leads to lumps or nodules. And it is difficult to remove if you don't like the results.

Another point, Sculptra takes months to deliver on facial volume. It's a s-l-o-w collagen builder.

Multiple treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, are the norm. Some lucky people respond to a single Sculptra treatment, but 2 or 3 is more typical,

So, why would Heather opt for Sculptra, when hyaluronic fillers like Restylane, Juvederm + Perlane can do the job instantly, and can be reversed if and when something goes wrong.

We will take the Dubrows at their word.

Rihanna Turns Up The Summer Heat In Fab Fuchsia Pink

Remember when Rihanna took home the 2014 CFDA Fashion Icon Award wearing that super naughty, see-through fishnet gown?

Well, Rihanna continues to suck up all the oxygen in the room whenever she appears for a public outing.

Last night in New York City, the mega-star was out and about in a glam, fuchsia-pink dress, with jumbo, silver hoops + bracelets, ultra-long, Cher-like, straight black extensions and sexy, fuchsia-pink lipstick.


We like the look. Rihanna is workin' it, looks confident, and likes breaking the rules.

This is what the singer revealed about her origins in Barbados when she accepted the Fashion Icon award in early June:

"I didn't have a lot of access to fashion." But, she said: "Fashion has always been my defense mechanism."  

Even as a child, she told the crowd, she used to think: "She can beat me, but she can't beat my outfit."

We respect that about Rihanna.

So, let's copy those fab fuchsia-pink lips!

Try this one by Maybelline. It's called, Maybelline® Color Sensational® Vivids Lipcolor in Fuchsia Flash.

We found a tube at Target for $5.59. We think it's a very good match!

People Mag Claims Jennifer Aniston's Super-Toned Arms From Yoga?

We LOVE People magazine, but maybe they should be careful over-exaggerating celebrities' body parts.

Here is the headline today that lured us in to read the article:

Want Jennifer Aniston's Super-Toned Arms? Here's What You Need to Know Straight from Her Yoga Instructor

 And here is the photo that People chose to show off those buff arms:

We think this is a bad photo, or Jennifer Aniston's arms are not that buff.
Here are celebrities with super-toned arms:

We've been told that the absolute BEST way to super-tone arms the quickest, is by fooling around with weights. Even a pair of 5 lb. dumbbells can TONE up the biceps + triceps FAST.  And we have no doubt that lots of yoga can also do great work for the arms, as well.

Read here about Jennifer Aniston's yoga instructor and the positions that give the beloved actress her fit figure.

Sexy Sofia Vergara Isn't Wearing Kmart But Still Looking OMG In $58 Dress!

Alright....now we can ALL copy sexy Sofia Vergara style in a $58 red, body-con dress that the TV star appears to have bought online.

Okay...wish we had HER figure, but could this inexpensive, block mesh panel maxi net dress still look gorgeous on every body?

Not so sure. We suppose when you have a tall, slender body blessed with ample curves, then most anything will look AMAZING on you.

There's Sofia at Friday evening's Hollywood Foreign Press Grants Banquet molded into the:

$58 Block Mesh Panel Bodycon Maxi Net Dress Red


The peek-a-boo, clingy maxi dress is from the British online shopping site called MyRevolvingCloset.

No it has NOT sold out yet. In fact, the fancy frock in red is available in these sizes:

UK 8 (US 4)
UK 10 (US 6)
UK 12 (US 8)
UK 14 (US 10)

Now if Kate Middleton were in this cheap, body-con dress, it would SELL OUT immediately. We think it's because of Sofia's exquisite figure. Her body makes that red dress. And few women have that knock-out silhouette, so why bother putting it on?

Will you take a chance and buy the $58 Sofia Vergara red OMG dress?

Do You Have A Haute Hat For Summer, Ladies?

The summer hat can be quite the head-turning accessory. It also serves as a sun protector for the face + neck, eyes and color-treated hair.

Maybe that's why we've been seeing a number of celebrities hangin' out in haute hats this summer.

Take a look at curvy Amber Rose in a grey, t-shirt dress and cool-looking, wide-brimmed hat She looks effortlessly chic.

Then we spot Naya Rivera on parade in sexy black from head-to-toe....boots and all. We are liking the major brim on this black, glam floppy hat. But we are wondering how Naya is standing the 100-degree temps in sunny L.A..

And then of course, we have an angel in our midst. There's Victoria's Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio exiting the airport looking haute in her haute, ivory hat.


Ladies there are STILL a lot of hot, summer days left. So if you're searching for the perfect haute summer hat, try a few on and then decide.

Macy's has a bunch of them.

We like this one by Nine West, on SALE now for $19.99.
