Singer and style icon Rihanna has been jet setting around the globe with a seriously high hairdo. She has always been known to push the envelope when it comes to funky looks and fun styles but this time she has gone a little far. From New York (pictured) to London, she has been taking the phrase "Go Big or Go Home," a bit too literally ... obviously she isn't thinking about returning to her house any time soon.

I was kind of over birthdays after I turned 21, there just really wasn't much to celebrate other than the fact that I was now, in fact, officially older (oh joy -- I can start using these awesome wrinkle serums). But the birthday of one of our favorite brands -- now that's something I can get excited about.

I don't know about you, but summer is my absolute favorite season. The sun, the beach, the flip-flops, it's all good. What I don't love though is showing up for the first pool party of the season with pasty legs, chipped toe polish and makeup melting off my face from the humidity (has this happened to you? it's easy to fix with these tips).

With Lauren Conrad’s final episode on MTV’s “The Hills” less than a week away, the reality star is ready to leave the drama and the cameras in the dust. And with a "Cosmopolitan" cover, her own fashion line, and a large fan base that plans to follow her beyond the show, it’s clear that “LC” will continue to be a fashion and beauty icon.

The former "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch" star, Melissa Joan Hart didn’t use any magic potions to drop the over 40 pounds of weight she gained after giving birth to her two sons. According to "People" magazine the now 113-pound mom saw a nutritionist and trainer for 14 months in order to look so svelte in a teeny purple bikini on the latest cover. Hart looks fabulous and certainly deserves a round of applause for all her hard work, we just think she would look even more gorgeous (if that’s possible) with a good 'ol faux glow (courtesy of a self-tanner). AND for all of us who don’t have the advantage of a fancy personal trainer and nutritionist (wink, wink) using self-tanner is a great cheater way to appear slimmer in a bikini. Not a genius in the self-tanner application department? Consult this video for some great tips. And use one of these reader-approved products.

I have mild insomnia. The lack of sleep is bad enough, but what's worse is the money I waste buying stuff while watching late-night TV. (Those Zorbeez looked irresistible at 3 a.m., but now …)

With the "John & Kate Plus 8" hour-long season premier debuting on May25th and the flurry of scandal surrounding their marriage splashed across the glossies, John and Kate Gosselin are drowning in media coverage but a lot of it has to do with Kate’s hairstyle!

Blemishes or crows feet got you down? Instead of dialing up your derm, maybe you should be consulting a realtor. We looked into such fun aspects as pollution, humidity, sunshine and tanning bed usage to find the places where you're most likely to have glowing skin like this celeb … and the ones where you're more likely to look like this one.

Beauty news from Cannes! Angelina Jolie appeared at the "Inglorious Basterds" premiere wearing gorgeous red lipstick. Normally, Angelina sticks with nude or pale pink lip colors, so this was quite surprising (don't believe me about the nude lips? check out these pics for proof).
