Fashion designer Roberto Cavalli is best known for leopard prints, but he also has a reputation as a stereotypical Italian ladies' man -- and he revels in that persona. So when he set out to develop a new fragrance for his eponymous brand, sex appeal was his first priority. "A woman should be confident -- and smell confident," says Cavalli. "But she should also be soft." The combination of feminine orange blossom, rich amber, and warm Tonka bean sends that message loud and clear.

Of course you know you should go to the derm once a year (and we can't stress enough how important it is), but a recent study found that 60 percent of women have actually never been to a skin doctor. And unless they have a serious problem or concern, they may never make an appointment -- even if they aren't happy with their skin care routine.
To help women who need basic skin care advice, DDF invented a new special device called the Skin Evaluation System. It attaches to an iPhone and takes photos of the skin at a microscopic level. The photos are then assessed by a computer program, which suggests the best treatment regimen.
