Sizzling hot beauty secrets

PHOTO: Martin Boose

For anyone who knows me, it's no secret that I love Valentine's Day. Besides the fact that I adore bouquets from secret admirers, heart-shaped cards and pink stuffed gorilla dolls, I consider it one of the best opportunities to break out some of my very favorite and most decadent beauty tricks.

1. Bath first, dinner later.

Nothing will get you into seduction mode quicker than a really romantic bath. Light some candles and treat yourself to a hot bath with plenty of bubbles.

Don't forget to add a rich oil to help moisturize your skin (but be careful, this will make the bathtub slippery!). I love the scent of LaLicious' super rich body oils ($24, Lalicious.com).

For a super easy and budget-friendly option, try pouring a little olive oil into your bath water.

2. Glow in all the right places.

I often sing the praises of highlighter because it's an essential tool for enhancing your best features. Just as you would use a highlighter to bring out your lips, brow bones and cheekbones, you can use a shimmery powder or luminizing lotion to bring your favorite physical features into the spotlight.

Got great gams? Blend a little shimmer lotion like Smashbox Body Lights ($35, Sephora) onto your shins and the tops of your thighs.

If you'll be baring your shoulders and decolletage, don't forget to give them a little dose of sexy shimmer as well. If you want to give your honey bunny a tasty surprise, you can even brush on a little flavored body powder like the ones made by Urban Decay ($26, Urbandecay.com).

3. Send some smoke signals.

One of the all-time, sexiest makeup looks ever is the smokey eye. While smokey eyes created with black eye shadows will probably always be sexy, gray eyeshadow is still super hot right now.

If you plan on wearing a strong smokey eye, keep the look balanced with a romantic soft pink blush and lush nude lips.

4. When in doubt, wear red.

If you prefer not to wear heavier eye makeup, go light on your eyes and play up your lips. There are few makeup looks more festive for Valentine's Day than one that includes a pair of seductive, ruby red lips.

The Best Ingredient for Skin Protection

By Leslie Baumann, M.D.

I went to check out the new Canyon Ranch spa in Miami Beach as soon as they opened since I always want to know what skincare lines the high end spas are carrying. As you know, if you routinely read my blog, I am always a skeptic about skincare products. I was stunned to see that Canyon Ranch's "Your Transformation" skincare line contains my favorite ingredient, Pro-NAD, which is a form of niacinamide that penetrates better than the type found in the Olay Regenerist products.

(As a disclaimer, I have always been a fan of Canyon Ranch. I have stayed at the one in the Berkshires and thought that it was a great experience. The new one that just opened in Miami Beach is gorgeous and has great food, but I have no financial relationship with them.),

A relative of niacin, and part of the vitamin B family, topical niacinamide is best known in the dermatological community as an anti-inflammatory and an excellent ingredient for fighting hyperpigmentation. Studies have shown that niacinamide prevents the DNA damage caused by sun exposure.

I think that the skin care professionals at Canyon Ranch realized that their location on the ocean on Miami Beach made it vital to include an ingredient to reverse some of the deleterious effects of the sun. Of course, do not forget to apply your sunscreen and wear a hat in addition to using the Pro-NAD containing products.

Why is Pro-NAD such a great ingredient for skin protection?

• Hyperpigmentation
  When it comes to reducing areas of excess pigmentation, Pro-NAD inhibits the transfer of melanosomes (vesicles filled with melanin, or skin pigment) to skin cells, which improves existing dark spots and helps prevent new ones from forming.
  
• Anti-Aging
  Pro-NAD is a powerful anti-aging ingredient. For starters, it helps decrease inflammation in the skin, which is thought to play a role in collagen-loss and, ultimately, aging. Moreover, Pro-NAD helps fuel the enzymes needed to repair damage to skin's DNA caused, for example, by sun exposure.
  
• Moisture
  Niacinamide is an excellent moisturizer -- it increases skin's ceramide levels, helping the skin barrier to naturally renew itself and retain moisture. Niacinamide is available in several easy-to-find skincare lines like Olay's Regenerist, Definity, and Total Effects products. However, only the Canyon Ranch line and Nia24 products contain niacinamide that has an important side group added to increase its penetration into deeper layers of the skin.

If you can't visit Canyon Ranch on Miami Beach, the new line is also available at the other Canyon Ranch locations as well as at Skinstore.com, Saks.com, Nordstrom.com and select locations of both department stores.
