Sex And The City” Movie = Women Dressing Crazy!

I am not going to get all high-and-mighty here and pretend that I don’t absolutely LOVE “Sex and the City” and that it didn’t get me through several break-ups (along with enormous bowls of buttered popcorn liberally doused with chili powder), but I will freely admit that I was deeply offended by the first few episodes I saw and prepared to DENOUNCE IT FROM THE PULPIT. A funny thing happened on my way to researching that sermon further, though: I found myself crying over an episode and that was it — I was totally IN with Carrie and her posse. I never trusted Big. I wanted Carrie to stick with Aidan because he was so good for her and to her. In the end I wanted her to stay single, because she seemed at her best as a single gal. I rooted for Charlotte’s marriage to work and wasn’t surprised that Miranda cancelled her abortion appointment. I laughed myself silly over Samantha’s exploits (and deeply admired Kim Cattrall’s under-appreciated gift for physical comedy employed while maintaining a convincing femme fatale vibe– no small feat for an actress). I never went so far as to start drinking Cosmos and I LOATHED the final episode, but I’ll be on line with the rest of “SATC” America when the film comes out later this month. I know that even if the screenplay is a dog, the clothes will be outrageously fabulously. Or maybe just outrageous. I see from this photo taken at the London premiere that SJP has already started with the seriously crazy:

BEAUTY TIPS

Body care

• Mix six-teaspoon petroleum jelly, two-teaspoon glycerin and two-teaspoon lemon juice. Apply this moisturizing lotion at least twice a week if you have dry and flaky, arms and legs
• Peel and grate a cucumber. Squeeze the juice to this, mix half-a-teaspoon glycerin and half-a-teaspoon rose water. Apply this on sunburns, leave it for some time.
• If you have cracked heels, melt paraffin wax; mix it with little mustard oil and apply on the affected area. Leave it overnight. After 10 or 15 days, your heels will become smooth.
• Massage your body with a mixture of coconut oil and any of your favourite scented oils like lavender or rosemary.
• For rough palms, use a mixture of glycerin and limejuice in equal proportion.

• For cracked heals, massage the foot with coconut oil and keep the foot in warm water for some time. Wipe the water off the feet and apply a mixture of hibiscus flower(10), Henna (1 handful) and juice of half a lemon. when dry wash it off.

Beauty Secrets for Girls

If the popular media is to be trusted, it's no longer enough to just look good, now we all have to run to the newsagent looking like supermodels! Thank goodness we realize that the media isn't exactly real life, and in our daily lives being happy and healthy is more important than forced beauty. That said, each of us has a unique look that is beautiful in its own right, so make the most of your natural beauty by caring for yourself well.

Personal Care
Good personal care is the very foundation of all other beauty secrets. Make sure that you follow a stringent personal care routine every day, including:

* Showering or bathing.
* Looking after you skin, hair, nails and oral hygiene.
* Applying deodorant/antiperspirant liberally each morning.
* Plucking any stray hairs from your well-shaped brows.
* Using sunscreen every day, even if it is cloudy or rainy outside.
* Treating chapped or cracked lips with a soothing lip balm.
* Using cosmetics only to accentuate your natural beauty, not to hide it or transform it.
* Splurging on a favourite scent for an extra boost.

Skincare
Spots and breakouts can be enough to ruin any big event, or average day! Don't let spotty skin make your teenage years a living hell. Instead invest in:

* Soap or body wash (with a puff) to suds up and get squeaky clean every day.
* Moisturizer to help rehydrate your skin.
* Facial exfoliator to scrub away dead skin cells every few days.
* Face wash to suit your skin type (dry/sensitive, normal, oily or combination).
* Toner to improve your skin tone and tighten pores.
* Rich facial moisturizer to leave your face feeling silky smooth.

Hair Care
Hairstyles can go in and out of fashion at the drop of a hat, but if you stick to a style to suit your face you'll never need to use that hat to cover up. To keep your coiffure looking killer, remember to:

* Select a style to suit your lifestyle, facial shape and hair type.
* Consider updating your colour, but only to something that complements your complexion.
* Cleansing with a shampoo suited to your hair type.
* Using conditioner as needed.
* Only allowing combs to detangle your wet hair.
* Pumping up your volume with mousse or spray.
* Holding your sky-scraping styles with gel or wax.

Nail Care
Nothing kills a look faster than topping it off with dirty fingernails. You don't have to splurge on a weekly manicure to keep your nails nailed, but investing in one so that you can copy it at home is a good idea. Be sure to observe:

* How to clean your nails and cuticles.
* How to file your nails to the desired length and shape.
* How to care for your cuticles.
* How to apply polish correctly and effectively.
* What kind of daily or weekly nail care regime your manicurist recommends.

Oral Hygiene
Finally, no beauty secrets could be complete without a word of warning about oral hygiene. When a smile is bright and fun it can literally be blinding, but when it is dull and dingy no one will want to come near it. Make sure that you are inviting, rather than repulsive, by practicing good oral hygiene, including:

* Using a toothbrush shaped to fit your mouth and with bristles of the required strength for your teeth.
* Toothpaste in a flavour you like, preferably with fluoride.
* Antiseptic and anti-plaque mouthwash.
* Dental floss to pass between your teeth and dislodge debris.
* Using all three of these products in combination after every meal.
* Visiting your dentist for regular check-ups and cleaning.

No matter what your favourite magazine or television programme tells you, beauty truly is only skin deep. If you are happy and having fun, then this will show through no matter what. Rather than attempting to change your looks with beauty secrets, use your daily beauty routines to make the most of what you've got. Enjoy yourself

This Sunday on Health Corner

Health Corner's sixth season kicks off with a whole new look and new host-- Joan Lunden. First up-- "Guiding Light" actress Caitlyn Van Zandt lost 65 lbs. with a new minimally invasive surgical treatment for weight loss. She teams up with "You Doc" Dr. Mike Roizen to explain the risks of excess belly fat, and how simple lifestyle changes can reduce obesity-related health risks like heart disease, diabetes and sleep apnea. In October 2008, Health Corner viewer Sharon Duncan emailed the show to tell us about her husband Les, who has cavernous angioma. The condition causes the brain to bleed, and Les has endured four major episodes. Each time, he has fought back-- relearning how to see, speak and walk. Les shares his story of recovery and hope as he lives a "new normal" life. ChefMD® is back, and so are Kathy Smith, Meghan Sinclair and Jill Repp. The Kids Reporters "go green" and Joan talks with Walgreens pharmacist John Jenkins about what causes heartburn. Plus, Florida Perry Smith introduces Clinton Kelly who shares his three strategies for fashion success. It's a great "wow" filled show with practical information and heartwarming stories your whole family will enjoy.Link Site
