You are what you eat

Beautiful skin is no accident of fate. Well, okay, maybe some of the glowing lovely is genetic, but you do have a little input.

If you want gorgeous, radiant skin, then you've got to feed the inside to get the results on the outside.

"Everything you eat becomes a part of not only your inner being, but the outer fabric of your body as well. The healthier the foods are that you consume, the better your skin will look," says Samantha Heller, MS, RD, a clinical nutritionist at NYU Medical Center in New York City.

The reverse is true as well, Heller tells WebMD. The less attention we pay to what goes in our mouth, the more problems we may see cropping up with our skin.

Sandal season over but feet still need pampering

There's no reason to ignore your feet just because the weather is growing colder.

In fact, you should pamper your tootsies all the more since they'll be subjected to bitter cold and packed into boots and sensible pumps. 

Your beloved will appreciate smooth feet when you snuggle up to stay warm on long winter nights, too.

This home scrub is great for smoothing out the rough patches on your tired dogs. The cornmeal in this scrub exfoliates while the banana, honey and almond oil soften and moisturize.

Banana-Cornmeal Foot Scrub

1/2 banana, mashed

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon almond oil

3 tablespoons corn meal, coarsely ground

Mix the banana, honey, almond oil and corn meal into a thick paste.  Massage paste onto the feet, concentrating on calluses and rough spots. Leave on feet for at least one to two minutes. Rinse feet with warm water, then pat dry with a soft towel.

Plump up the volume: Lip Fusion XL

Jump into bed at night and plump your pout with LipFusion XL - 2X Micro-Injected Collagen + HA Advanced Lip Plumping Therapy,.

Smooth it on and wake up to intensely plump, firm, hydrated, and full-out sexy lips.

LipFusion XL is a non-injectable lip volumizing therapy combining two times the pure active collagen of LipFusion's original plumpers with hyaluronic acid (HA), in one high-performance topical nighttime treatment.

Designed to work in synergy with the body's natural water, lips get optimal enhancement from two intense naturally-occurring fillers in one powerful, pout-perfecting formulation: Patented, dehydrated, marine collagen-filling spheres™ penetrate skin's surface on contact, then seek out body's natural water, and rehydrate to instantly plump and smooth lips.

Once Lip Fusion XL is applied, lips swell continually for hours to visibly "fill" lines, boost volume, and keep lips lusciously moist. 

Retails for $50.

Plump up the volume, baby.
