Feature by our Editorial Assistant Colleen

New Year, new look?

Every year we make resolutions that for some reason or another doesn’t always pan out. One move could be to try out a new short hair do for the coming year.

If you don’t like it, well you could also grow it back out or if you can’t wait that long, grab some hair extensions to change up your look. Female Hollywood celebrities do it, why can’t you?

Julia Roberts the new face of Lancôme

julia-roberts-lancome
Joining the ranks of Anne Hathaway and Kate Winslet, as the brand’s newest “global ambassadress,” Julia will undoubtedly represent women over 40 very well!

It’s interesting how Julia has been out of the public eye for so long and now after this long absence she’s coming out in full force as the face of one of the biggest cosmetic companies in the world!

This will surely be a better gig for Julia Roberts because shooting adverts will not be nearly as demanding on this mother of three kids as spending 12 hours on a set for 3-4 months in a row!

Whitney Houston talks to Oprah on September 14, 2009

whitney-houston-oprah

I’m not even going to go into Whitney’s crazy marriage with Bobby Brown or any of those times she made news because her strange behavior from the past!

When I was a teenager, I have to say that I never took to Whitney until the 1992 sound track to The Bodyguard. That song “I Will Always Love You” written by Dolly Parton was the song that really made me appreciate Whitney’s talent.

I always find it so heartbreaking to see people with so much talent have so many issues in life. I mean Whitney is the world’s “best-selling music artist) with over 170 million albums sold and yet, she’s had a very complicated, tumultuous and plain screwed last few years!

When she announced her divorced, I yelled Hallelujah and when Clive Davis from Arista Records declared in March 2007 that Whitney would be putting out a comeback album, I said “thank God”. Now with her second album (I Look to You was released on August 31, 2009) behind her, Whitney seems to be back on track to rebuilding a healthier life for herself.

Which of your favourite celebs over 35 are admitting to using a little Botox here and there?

I will preface this post by saying that all that I’m about to write is based on rumour of course because we all know that in Hollywood no one has a cosmetic doctor on speed dial!

That said, there are some celebs who openly admit to having a bit of help in keeping their youthful look.

It’s a dog-eat-dog-world in Hollywood and I may be all philosophical about aging and I may spend a lot of time on my site pushing the virtues of aging well, but then again I do not make my living in front of the camera.

I will openly admit to my readers that I’ve never had any nip, tuck or injections done not because I’m opposed to the idea or feel that I want to age gracefully, but simply because I don’t feel I need it. As long as I keep looking much younger than my real age … then I’ll only be visiting my cosmetic doctor to help me deal with my acne scars.

Julia Roberts graces the March 2009 cover of Allure magazine!

julia_roberts_allure
Julia is back!

After many years away from the spotlight and raising her little family of three kids, Julia Roberts is back on the cover of magazines looking more beautiful and serene than ever before.

A few weeks ago, I went to see Slumdog Millionaire (I caught the movie, just before the 2009 Oscars) and one the trailers was Julia Roberts and Clive Owen’s new romantic-espionage flick called Duplicity (opening on March 20th, 2009)!

May I say for the record, that I quite like Julia’s wardrobe in that film and I’m already eyeing her March Jacobs handbag which I saw in one of the scenes!!!

Can someone STOP Demi Moore from looking this good at 46!

demi_moore_ashton_kusher

Can someone explain to me how Demi Moore can STILL keep looking as beautiful as she does? I mean she looks just ravishingly stunning every time I see her. She looked incredible at the 66th Golden Globe Award, didn’t she?

As I was working on the post on Madonna’s fitness secrets, I saw a story on Demi and her 30-year-old husband and I just had to click on the link and once AGAIN there she was looking incredible on this press photo.

I mean, what is it … good genes … a great glam squad (fitness and beauty experts who work with her) … or simply the fact that she’s married to a man who is 16 years younger than she is (maybe that’s what’s missing in my life)?

One thing is certain and that’s the fact that Demi Moore makes 46 look damn-hot!

I think my favourite thing about Demi Moore is the fact that she always chooses very sophisticated, yet sexy looks.

How does Madonna get her rock hard body at 50?

madonna_fit_over_50
It’s no secret that Madonna has got to be the fittest 50-year-old woman on the planet. Heck, she would beat me at the gym and she’d been most women half her age.

Madonna is certainly disciplined when it comes to her workouts. This is nothing new because Madonna has been training and keeping her body fit since she was in her 20s! The mother of two and adoptive mother of little David from Malawi is getting a lot of ink because of the fact that so many people have preconceived notions of what a 50-something woman should look like. I’m not the biggest Madonna fan, but I do love how Madonna has always broken rules and she’s not afraid to shy away from “sameness”.

Does Lisa Rinna regret her plastic surgery enhancements?

Heart Truth NY FW08 01-002-08
I was surfing old archive of Yahoo’s OMG when I found Lisa Rinna’s feature. What stopped me dead in my tracks was the title: “I Look Like a Freak” After Too Much Plastic Surgery”.

You won’t hear too many Hollywood celebrities admitting to too much Botox Cosmetics® or having had too many shots of injection fillers.

The former “Dancing with the Stars” contestant admits that she’s had her cheeks enhanced with injections of Juvederm® and she admits that she might have gone overboard (I totally agree)!

It’s interesting because Lisa (45, born July 11, 1963) admits that she was influenced by one of her girlfriends when she decided to explore this cosmetic enhancement avenue.

Christy Turlington is 40 and she looks as beautiful now as she did in 1987!

christy_turlington_is_40

Christy Turlington is now 40 (born January 2, 1969)! The 1980s supermodel looks as flawless today as she did when I first saw her on the cover of my favourite fashion magazines as a teenager.

I’ve featured Christy as a Beauty Match Celebrity Pick a few times because I think she’s aging so well. I also am quite partial to the fact that she’s part Latina (as I never hesitate to highlight other compatriots and her mother was from El Salvador), but I’m really partial to the fact that she re-entered the modelling business in her late 30s and today in her 40s she’s the face of Roberto Coin jewellery, Chanel, Escada and Maybelline Cosmetics.  The mother of two (she has one boy and one girl with actor Ed Burns) is busier now than she ever was and she’s still the picture of perfection.

Robin McGraw is helping her fans live a happier and healthier life!

robin_mcgraw_whats_age_got_to_do_with_it

Follow me on Twitter

I know when Robin McGraw is talking about beauty on the Dr. Phil show because my stats go nuts. One year ago I started talking about Robin McGraw (aka wife of Dr. Phil) and I reviewed a few of her favourite beauty products. It took about one hour after posting those original posts to realize how incredibly popular Robin McGraw is among her fans in TV land.

I still think that one of the reasons she’s so popular is because she’s not trying to be someone else and I think people like that about her.

On Tuesday, January 6th, 2009, Robin McGraw joined her husband on stage with a team of beauty expert to once again transform a few fans over 40 (Sheri 47 and Shelly 42) who had let themselves slide to the bottom of the priority list.

Would you like to look like Michelle Pfeiffer, Madonna, Angelina Jolie AND Demi Moore?

angelina_jolie_2

I think we’ve all done it once: look admiringly at the face of our favourite female Hollywood celebs and hope that we either had “that” nose or “those” cheekbones or “that mouth”. I’ve spoken to so many cosmetic surgeons who have said that clients routinely show up at their office with a photo of a Hollywood celeb in the hopes of looking that perfect.

The same happens when we go running to our hair stylist with Katie Holmes’ new bob or Jennifer Aniston’s new shade of highlights or even Jennifer Lopez’s new updo!

The problem is that we often forget that the reason why Angelina’s lips look good on her is because they work with her face structure and Katie Holmes’ bob rocks because of the angle of her face. When you transpose features … it doesn’t always look good because features are meant to work as an overall … so if you “move” Angelina Jolie’s lips onto your face … it won’t look as good … something will be wrong.

Julia Ormond’s beauty and fitness tips

julia ormond
julia_ormond
It’s true that we’ve not seen Julia Ormond for a while now on film. If the name might not ring a bell, I’m sure that describing Julia as the leading lady with the AMAZING hair in the Legends of The Fall alongside Brad Pitt might help!

On camera she’s always portraying a girly-girl … especially in her role as “Sabrina” alongside Harrison Ford, but in real life Julia Ormond is a self-proclaimed tomboy who is more comfortable in jeans and a T-shirt than in a gown.

I guess if you are a celebrity and you are offered a large sum of money to endorse, partner up with a skincare line, why not?

Ellen DeGeneres is the new face of CoverGirl at 50!

I’m terribly sorry for being a few days late on this monumental news, but the month of September has turned out to be one of the busiest and most hectic months on record.

I’m not complaining, because it’s all positive stuff, but it also means that I’ve not been able to post this last week as I had planned to do … as they say better late than never.

If you’ve not yet heard, Procter & Gamble has signed daytime TV host and Emmy-award winner Ellen DeGeneres to become the new face of CoverGirl makeup (her campaigns will be seen as of January 2009).

All week, Ellen’s guests have congratulating her on this major accomplishment. I personally LOVED when Benjamin Bratt (star one of my new favourite series called “The Cleaner”) said to Ellen: “You know what? You’ve got CoverGirl eyes” … I equally liked the way Ellen blushed!

How to buy and sell designer clothing and accessories on eBay?

If you’ve never bought or sold anything on eBay, it can seem a bit overwhelming. I have so many friends who have closets packed with stuff, but who refuse to take the time to try to sell their once-loved-items on eBay on the pretext that eBay is too complicated and too tedious to learn.

Most of them have told me they have no intentions on sitting down and figuring out eBay and they’d just rather take their once-loved-items to GoodWill. Now, don’t get me wrong, taking items you no longer wear or use to Salvation Army or GoodWill is very important. It’s a truly kind and necessary gesture, but there are a number of items that you own that are worth some good money and this might be a little extra cash that you could use to offset the coming season’s purchases.
