Condoleeza Rice- Her Style And Her Looks


Condoleeza Rice has pushed boundaries. She has shown that sex doesn’t matter when it comes to power. She has shown she can take on any man when it comes to politics and beat them at their own game and love her or hate her you have to admire her. But one issue that has never really been discussed is Condoleeza’s looks. There’s no doubt she’s an intelligent woman but is she dealing with aging as well as she is dealing with authority?

Condoleeza’s political career has been prolific. She became Secretary of State on January 26, 2005 after four years as the National Security Advisor. But has considering the well being of the country prevented her from taking any interest in her looks? And is holding back the aging process very much low on her priorities?

Fashion journalist Louise Gerrard says “Condoleeza is an amazing woman. She has one of the most important jobs in the world. Saying that she is a woman and of course looks are somewhat important to her. However, perhaps because she has more important things to think about, Condoleeza doesn’t dress as well she could.”

“Obviously her profession dictates her fashion sense in some way. She has to have a conservative style to work in the White House. However her style is slightly boring and old fashioned. If Condoleeza was in another profession she could have a much more fresh and funky style and she looks great for her age but her profession restricts her style and therefore makes her look older than she is and certainly older than she could look.”

Cosmetic Specialist Dr Richard Halton says “I would not think Condoleeza has received any cosmetic treatment. I would not think she has had time to do so!”

Condoleeza receives a seven out of ten on the GRINZA scale. From Louise - “her style lets her down.”

Natural Anti-Aging Products

Many people hope to slow down or halt the aging process and spend thousands of dollars on expensive creams and concoctions intended to keep their youthful appearance. However, there is no need to resort to man-made and chemical infused products when there are plenty of natural anti-aging products. In fact, many of these natural remedies have been used for centuries.
If you are considering any anti-aging product, be it a lotion, cream, gel, machine, or even a natural remedy it is in your best interest to do a little research about that particular product before you invest your time and money. Additionally, you may want to read user reviews to see what others think about the product as well.
Vitamins
Vitamins are part of a healthy diet and can have an overall beneficial effect on your health. Depending on the particular vitamin, you will get different benefits, but they can help you not only look younger, but feel younger. Vitamin A and the Vitamin B Complex are known to be a natural anti-aging element because it helps refresh skin tissue. Calcium, magnesium, and zinc are also thought to have positive effects on skin renewal.
Methyl Sulfonyl Methane
Methyl Sulfonyl Methane, also known as MSM, is available in both pill form and a lotion or cream. MSM is a bivalent group of SO2, which happens to be a set of synaptic chromosomes. MSM has been used for years by people who want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, although recently, the government has begun labeling the supplement bottles with warnings, as the MSM pill has been found to cause harm to your health.
Collagen and Antioxidants
Collagen can help prevent or minimize fine lines and wrinkles and comes in supplemental, cream, gel, and lotion form. However, take care when using the supplement, as it has been found to cause or contribute to some health problems.
Antioxidants are free-radical fighting elements that can help fight the aging process. Copper is a natural antioxidant that can help fight wrinkles. Other naturally occurring antioxidants include Vitamin C, alpha lipoic acid, DMEA, tocotrienol, and ester.
Primrose Oils
Primrose oils have been found to prevent wrinkles. In fact, essential fatty acids combined with linolic acid can actually restore your skin’s health. These oils can help moisturize the skin and nails, causing the appearance of lines and wrinkles to disappear.
Remember, wrinkles occur for several reasons, other than aging. Dry skin, exposure to sun, smoke, and alcohol, tanning beds, bruises, and injury can all contribute to the onset of wrinkles. If you avoid these things, or moisturize your skin, you can slow down the aging effects associated with them.
Dealing with Dry Skin
Dry skin can cause wrinkles and lead to looking older than you would like. It is essential that you take care of dry skin properly to reduce the gaining process. Using baby oil on dry skin is not ideal, it will provide moisture, however it will also attract dirt. Dirty skin can also wrinkle more easily than clean skin.
These are just a few natural remedies when it comes to keeping your youthful looks. In conclusion, always be sure to research any new natural remedy before beginning a new skincare regimen or supplement.

Fuel For Life and Lines? Fragrance Makes A Difference

Diesel has a new fragrance 'Fuel For Life' - sexy, sleek and according to some reports, Fuel for Life (http://girlspoke.com/2007/09/06/fuel-for-life-my-fuel-for-sex/) is destined to enhance your sexual experiences. Several studies have found that fragrances are not just good for your general odor, but can also enhance your body appearance in other ways.

A study from Dr. Alan Hirsch at the Science of Smell found that a special odor can actually reduce weight up to 12 pounds. From the study:

Studies have found that certain clothes can affect visual perception of a person’s weight, but few if any studies have investigated the effect of other senses on weight perception. While some scents have been found to actually help reduce weight, this study is unique in that it tested perception of weight.

Hirsch work is in agreement with the 'pink grapefruit' study which found that , women wearing a pink grapefruit scent appeared 6 years younger than their actual age according to the men who were surveyed.

Appearing both younger and thinner - not a bad benefit from a fragrance.

Laura Bush- Her Style And Her Looks


It can’t be easy being married to one of the most powerful men in the world. When your every move is scrutinized and your picture is regularly in the papers, you have every right to be a little conscious of your looks. So how does Laura Bush handle it? And does she have anything to feel self conscious about?
Fashion Journalist Louise Gerrard says: “Laura is the perfect politicians wife. She’s knows how she is expected to dress and she has her style down to a tee.

Laura always looks very conservative. Smart skirt suits and pearls are almost her trademark. Its hard to know though whether this is Laura’s personal choice or just what she knows she has to wear. The First lady cannot be seen in cropped jeans and a tank top!”

“Laura’s style is a little ‘uptight’. Even with her role as the First lady she could loosen up a little. Well-lined wide trousers with a fitted blouse is both smart but cool. I think Laura could do with showing a little bit more of an adventurous style to show a more youthful side to her”

Hair and make-up stylist Caitlyn Moore says “Laura’s hair is quite fussy. It’s very ‘styled’ and looks quite high maintenance. This type of style is quite dated and can add years to a person’s look. Laura could try a more choppy style to give her a more modern look.”

Cosmetic Specialist Dr Richard Halton says “I do not think Laura has received any surgical assistance. There is a possibility of some restylane injection though as her skin is quite smooth in appearance.”

Laura gets seven out of ten on the Grinza scale; from Louise - “let’s see your wild side Laura!”
