Snooki tweeted a photo of herself sans makeup with the tag “No make up day and IDC ”.

All I can say is I love makeup and all, but Snooki looks gorgeous without any and should go sans makeup more often.

Who’s with me?

I mentioned back in August that Olivia Wilde and Emma Stone were Revlon’s Newest Spokeswomen and now we finally get a chance to see the gorgeous images.

I love both ads.

What about you?

Katy Perry has a new cut+color.

I personally love it!

It makes her look so much younger than the black color she usually wears.

Agree/Disagree?

I’d love to hear from you!

To those that know me very well it’s no secret that I adore Dr.Oz.

I think it’s his natural approach to health and wellness, but whatever it is I’m hooked.

I was looking through one of my notebooks today and realized that I’ve taken down quite a few beauty tips in the past few months from his show.

I’m including a few of my favorites below..

Tip #1.
Looking to avoid getting wrinkles?

Take Primrose Oil 500mg twice a day.

Tip #2.
Split Ends?

Take 550mg of black currant essential oil twice a day.

Tip #3.
Want healthy,glowing skin?

Make a mask:

1. Put 3 spoonfuls of coffee grinds into a bowl

2. Put in a small amount of extra virgin olive oil

3. Mix

4. Apply to face and wait for a few minutes then wipe off.

Voila. Soft, glowing skin.

Tip #4.
Got oily hair?

Try Apple Cider Vinegar. Dilute vinegar by mixing one tablespoon into one cup of water. Apply it to hair and then rinse.

I’ve tried the coffee mask and apple cider vinegar and they both work great.

If you try any of these diy beauty tips let me know how it works for you.

Best,

Do you watch the Victoria’s Secret fashion show each year and curse the models for their great genes?

Do you think to yourself everything must come so easy for them?

Answer #1. Did you say, No? Ummmmm..me either.

Answer #2. Did you say, Yes? Thanks for being honest.

It may seem like the Victoria’s Secret Angels were blessed with great bodies, but Adriana Lima recently spilled the beans about what it really takes to look that amazing.

To get ready for the big show Adriana has been working out every day with a personal trainer since August. For the last three weeks, she’s been working out twice a day.

She says:

“It is really intense, it’s not really the amount of time you spend working out, it’s the intensity: I jump rope, I do boxing, I lift weights, but I get bored doing that. If I am not moving I get bored very easily.”

She also sees a nutritionist, who has measured her body’s muscle mass, fat ratio and levels of water retention. He prescribes protein shakes, vitamins and supplements to keep Lima’s energy levels up during this training period. Lima drinks a gallon of water a day. For nine days before the show, she will drink only protein shakes – “no solids”. The concoctions include powdered egg. Two days before the show, she will abstain from the daily gallon of water, and “just drink normally”. Then, 12 hours before the show, she will stop drinking entirely.

“No liquids at all so you dry out, sometimes you can lose up to eight pounds just from that,” she says.

Seems drastic don’t you think?

Next time you see the Victoria’s Secret Angels on TV don’t be jealous of them, instead be happy that you don’t have to do such crazy things to your body.

What do you think of the crazy dieting Adriana goes through before a big show?

I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Best,

I’m so excited to see that Nicki Minaj is doing a line of polishes with OPI.

They’re fun and unique just like Miss. Minaj herself.

There are six limited-edition colors in total all of which are inspired by Minaj’s own personal sense of style.

Shown in the above photo are: Save Me (glittery one), Did it on ‘Em (neon green) and Pink Friday (bubblegum pink).

The collection will be available in January and will retail for $8.50 a bottle.

I can’t wait….I love Pink Friday and Save Me.

What do you think of the collaboration between Nicki and OPI?

Will you be picking up any of the polishes?

Please share!

Yesterday, as many of you may know, Steve Jobs passed away.

He was such an inspiration and as soon as I heard the news of his passing I knew I had to share this amazing speech with you which he gave in 2005.

My favorite quote by him is this:

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Life is short so go out there and live it to the fullest.

Best,

Lauren Conrad is a very busy girl.

You probably know her best from MTV’s Laguna Beach and The Hills, but Lauren also has 3 clothing lines, is a New York Times bestselling author and a fellow beauty blogger.

I know wow right, but she’s not stopping there.

Lauren has plans to start a beauty product line as well.

She recently told Forbes.com this:

“Right now, one of my main objectives is to expand TheBeautyDepartment.com into a product line. I am currently researching all of my options, but should begin the process of executing an actual line very soon—stay tuned.”

She also had this great advice for others:

If nothing else, remember this: Do something that you love, surround yourself with people you trust, learn from your mistakes, work hard, and don’t let other people’s opinions of you become your limitations.

Great advice LC and way to follow your dreams!

We wish her much success on her latest adventure (as if she needs it)!

How gorgeous is Nicole Scherzinger?

I’ve been a fan for awhile and recently while flipping through one of my magazines (Glamour) I read an article on her favorite beauty products and thought I’d share them with you.

Her Skin Secret is : Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint in Bronzed $38.00

Her Shiny Hair Secret: Moroccanoil Treatment $41.00

Her SPF Mega Splurge: La Prairie Cellular Radiance Emulsion SPF 30 $425.00

Her Favorite Mascara: Dior Diorshow Black Out $25.00

Her Lipstick that doubles as a blush: Chanel Rouge Allure Lip Color in Darling $32.00

It seems Nicole, 33, likes to splurge when it comes to her beauty products.

I mean $435.00 for a SPF?!?!

It better make me look 10 years younger for that price, haha.

What do you think of her favorites?

Have you tried any of them yourself?

What were your thoughts?

As most of you gals probably know I’m vegan, but not one of those “preachy” types.

I do however believe that veganism (when done right aka: not a junk food vegan) is very beneficial for your health and even your looks.

So when I heard that several members of the upcoming show, The Playboy Club, were vegan I was very excited.

Recent vegan convert, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, says:

“I feel like a different person. There’s a big difference in my energy level, my skin cleared up, I could not believe the change.”

Fellow bunny, Leah Renee, is also vegan.

I mean how gorgeous are these two women?

And they’re not alone actresses Emily Deschanel, Alicia Silverstone, Olivia Wilde along with plenty of Hollywood’s other top leading ladies are vegan as well.

I believe you are what you eat and what goes into your body will show up on your face/skin, etc.

So if you’re looking to lose weight healthily, get more glowing skin, etc why not give vegetarianism/veganism a try?

And vegan or not eat your fruits and veggies and avoid processed greasy food for more healthy, glowing skin and a healthier you.

Any other veg heads out there?

Any ex veg heads?

I’d love to hear from you.

And please note you should always consult a physician before making changes to your diet as I’m just a lowly little blogger and can only tell you what works for me

Have a great weekend ladies!
