Ladies: Enough with the Botox already!
I was wondering if it was my imagination at first, but it seems to me that more and more people (particularly women) are taking youthful appearance advice from the likes of Madonna, Cher or Dolly Parton. As in, Botox injections! While there’s absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to look youthful, when someone gets to the point where their upper lip won’t move when they smile or speak, or their mouth is more trout-like than...

You’re looking younger every day!
I think that the list of things that people dread the most include public speaking, spiders, snakes and AGING! The latter is especially a concern for people in the entertainment industry and many of them have taken the route of the knife to turn back the hands of time… not always with the greatest of results.

The real key to beautiful hair and glowing skin
All you have to do is step into any grocery, drug or department store to see that the personal care industry is B-I-G business. Entire aisles and store sections are devoted to an array of lotions, creams, shampoos, conditioners, cleansers, toners, scrubs, etc. And the manufacturers of these products know darn well that people are willing to spend copious amounts of money and do practically anything to look good.
