TanTowels - An easy way to get a gorgeous glow

Filed under: Skin Care, Product Reviews, Beauty Tips

tantowelRegardless of what month is on the calendar, many of us like to have a natural-looking, sun-kissed glow. Especially those of us who live in southern states -- people expect us to be a little tan, you know? But, tanning beds are so last millennium -- we'll sacrifice a lot to look good, but risking skin cancer is more than we're willing to do.

Filed under: Cosmetics, Style Tip of the Day, Beauty Tips

Admittedly, we are a little bit makeup obsessed. On a normal day, we don't really even wear much makeup but it's just fun to pick out, look at, and know that it is there "just in case."

Thanks to three new collections at Target - JK by Jemma Kidd, NP Set by Napoleon Perdis, and Pixi by Petra Strand - we can pick out as many colors as we want without worrying about budget or that fact we probably won't wear it as often as we'd like.

One of the first makeup tips you learn in middle school is to emphasize either your eyes or your lips, but never both. Shortly after you master that lesson, you learn that really dark makeup shouldn't be paired with a light, flirty, feminine outfit. So, did Jennifer Lopez miss out on all of the middle school beauty gossip, or what?

Brad Pitt's hour-long beauty routine

Filed under: Skin Care, Celebrities with Style


It's a pretty well-accepted fact that Brad Pitt is prettier than most guys, regardless of their age. Hell, he's prettier than a good percentage of women we know! And while we're not sure we buy this story in its entirety (the National Enquirer isn't exactly the most reliable source), we think there's probably a good bit of truth in it.

Apparently, Brad Pitt spends an hour every night applying various cleansers, toners, creams, and balms to his face, including his $1400 a jar Creme de la Mer anti-aging moisturizer. And, once a week, he applies an olive oil-based cream on his hands and feet to keep his skin soft and supple. He even wears gloves and socks to bed to make sure he gets the full moisturizing benefits.

Five tips for age-defying beauty

Filed under: Skin Care, Celebrities with Style, Beauty Tips


We at StyleList want you to be beautiful at any age. Here are our top 5 tips for age-defying beauty:

1. Moisturize moisturize moisturize with spf. Still young? Lucky you. Try Future E by L'Oreal.

2. Invest in a good eye cream, like one of Lancome's Primordiale Eye creams. Let a specialist at a department store help you pick which cream is right for your skin.

Bonus tip: Refrigerate it if you buy in bulk.

3. Sleep. If you follow this and the above two steps, you won't need to cake on the make-up; that will make you look ancient.

4. Betty Beauty.com has a secret you may have read about earlier...

5. Laugh. Your face is going to age, and you want the pretty lines, not the frowny-grimace lines. Laughter has been shown to improve your health and prolong your life--and you always look more beautiful when you smile!

Rodin - Your skin's secret weapon

Filed under: Must Haves

Skeptics, take note: After the first application of this mix of 11 essential oils (jasmine, sweet almond, jojoba) your complexion will have a visible, healthy glow. Really. We've tried and tested it ourselves.

Apply a few drops in lieu of your regular moisturizer (or under it when your skin is really drab). The oil is all natural, non-greasy, and leaves skin supple and hydrated. Dab a drop or two on your elbows, hands and feet before bed and your rough, dry skin will be banished. Since it's pricey ($130 for 1oz; buy it here), mix it in with your regular face and body moisturizers to make it last and last.

Hangover? Fake looking fresh, FAST

Filed under: Product Reviews, Beauty Tips

We've all been there. One too many glasses of vino somehow found its way past our lips, and the next morning, it's not a pretty sight. Sallow, dry, blotchy skin does not make for a good beauty day. So--blah, blah, blah drink lots of water, but that doesn't help for hours. Check out the gallery for my top three hangover helpers.


Twiggy talks about being fab past 40

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Twiggy was one of the biggest style icons of the Sixties, but don't think for a second that she's done being fabulous. She turned 59 yesterday (Happy Birthday, Twiggy!), and is working hard to be a role model for mature women.

The former supermodel, who is now the face of Marks & Spencer, says that women can absolutely be fashion forward and fabulous well past their 40th birthdays. She said, "For me, getting older is about harnessing all the things I have learned about what does and doesn't suit me. The 40s onwards are when we can really begin to enjoy ourselves," adding, "Successful dressing is mostly about attitude, having the confidence in what you wear, knowing that it's working for your body."
