HSN, America’s biggest home shopping network, signed former model Carol Alt to launch a new skincare line called RAW Essentials By Carol Alt.
The 48-year old model, perpetual entrepreneur and author (check out her books “Eating In The Raw” and “The Raw 50″) follows a strict raw food diet after fighting a bout with uterine cancer, and the range is based on that particular live food practice. RAW’s products are devoid of synthetic preservatives and are manufactured at low temperatures, so its natural ingredients (like tamanu oil, aloe vera and soy proteins) keep their quality and benefits.

Most women spend time and money trying to get rid of slick spots on their face, especially in the dreaded t-zone.
Translucent powders, blotting papers and matte lotions make the short list of makeup bag must-haves for this slippery issue. But we’re beginning to learn that not all oils are bad — in fact, beauty editors are going postal over Tamanu oil (dubbed “Sacred Oil” by locals), a traditional ingredient from tamanu tree nuts in the South Pacific.
