 The natural, unblemished youthfulness of Courtney Cox is questionable at best, at least to me anyway.
Cox, who is surprisingly unlined despite her age creeping up there, has been the face of skin care brand Kinerase for the past few years and just signed up with Avon to hawk their new scent, Spotlight. This olfactory blend is a fresh oriental, meaning mandarin, sandalwood, vanilla and Italian bergamot, confected by IFF perfumer Monique Remy.
Her reason for joining Avon?
“(Avon) truly celebrates and empowers women and this fragrance captures that essence – that all women are in the spotlight in their own unique ways and this fragrance highlights the excitement and the exhilaration of that feeling,” says the former “Friends” star.

 Back in the day, my mother would have quite possibly disowned me if I ever came home with a blazing tattoo.
Now that I’m in my mid-late twenties, it turns out my mother’s dislike for ink art was pretty sound because getting inked wouldn’t have been my thing, but it doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate needled designs on the bodies of others.
Like Kat Von D.

 If someone asked me what sense I couldn’t live without, it would be sight.
That’s why it is increasingly important for me to protect my peepers in any way possible — which includes not wearing my contact lenses for 16 hours straight, eating as many carrots as possible (kidding) and using organic mascara — because anything you put on the skin, especially near the eyes, is just as important as what you put in the body.
When I’m talking mascara, I mean the kind without parabens, petrolatum, formaldehyde and tar.

 Skip the Americano mistos, soy vanilla lattes and non-sugar mochas.

 Prince — the man who invented purple rain and made doves cry — is currently on the run from his fragrance licensee Revelations.
It was stipulated in the singer’s contract that he would do public appearances for his upcoming fragrance 3121, but Prince has gone into hiding and is now being sued by Revelations for $100,000 for breach of contract. His face doesn’t appear on any of the 3121 packaging, either.

 Amanda Lepore, the one-time transsexual muse of former club kid label Heatherette, is striking out on her own without the help of Richie Rich or Traver Rains.
Just in time for happy Holiday ‘08, Lepore is launching a namesake fragrance called Amanda by Amanda Lepore with famed perfumer, Christophe Laudamiel. The scent is supposed to remind its wearer of the transsexual icon’s curves and signature red lips through strawberry, woods, yellow mandarin and — of course — Cristal champagne.

 Reese Witherspoon is America’s Sweetheart — and, boy, did she ever look elegantly sweet in at the recent Country Music Awards.
I got the chance to speak to Lyle Remier, a makeup artist for M.A.C. (and co-designer of the clothing label Evan & Dean), about how to replicate Witherspoon’s enviable CMA look.

 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.

 Lisa Price started off her beauty product brand Carol’s Daughter while working on The Cosby Show set back in the 1980s, dabbling in mixing organic ingredients like sweet jojoba, almonds and soy in her downtime.
A few years later, it turned into a mail-order and online business in the 90s, eventually going the way of brick and mortar in 1999 with a store in Brooklyn. One store then turned into another in Harlem, then turned into a deal with Sephora to sell Carol’s Daughter.
