Las Vegas...sizzles at 110 degrees! Tropical heat wave...





Tropicana poolside!



The word is out!

Las Vegas is currently experiencing a tropical heat wave.

Today, for example, the mercury is expected to soar to 110 degrees with no relief in sight.

News anchors were blitzing the air waves at the crack-of-dawn with tips on how to cope.

"If you're feeling thirsty, you're already dehydrated," one pretty reporter warned.

Although six to eight glasses of cool refreshing water is recommended normally, many have  urged that the intake be increased, to at least eight to ten full glasses.

Other suggestions?

*Wear a sunhat
*Slap on some quality sunscreen
*Avoid strenuous physical activities in the mid-afternoon sun

And, don't forget your pet!

*Be wary of hot ashphalt pavement that may burn paws
*Keep all pets well-hydrated
*Avoid locking up the animals in the car

Enjoy!

Ellen DeGeneres...flogs make-up with stylish flair! Skin care tips...


Say, that was quite a blurb in the Los Angeles Times weekend edition featuring our little darling, Ellen DeGeneres.

The fashion stylist propped up our perky talk-show host in a chic black designer suit which suited the fair-haired "simply ageless" beauty to a "T".

I was particularly drawn to the elegant four-button flourish at the cuff; subtle & elegant, if you ask me!

Ellen, keep up with the horsey fashion set and you'll land on my Best Dressed List for women at the end of the year.

DeGeneres is flogging a skin care product for Covergirl & Olay.

The line is touting Olay Regenerist - a serum - which the manufacturer boldly asserts conjures up flawless skin that appears ageless even to the keen eye of the most discerning high-society matron.

"The make-up that simply won't age you," they gush.

"Unlike high-end department store brands that 'settle' in lines and wrinkles causing the individual to appear older instead."

Of course, moisturizers will plump up the skin and lessen the appearance of lines.

That's a no brainer!

Exfoliating creams, on the other hand, will slough off dead cells - and hence - increase blood flow to the skin surface and create a healthy-looking glow that will turn heads.

But, the truth of the matter is, no skin cream (or make-up) can reverse the aging process or turn back the clock of time once the damage has set in.

For clear blemish-free skin with a minimum of wrinkles - hydration, diet, and exercise - are key regimens to follow.

Drink at least six to eight (eight ounce glasses) of water daily.

Eat a nutritious diet which consists of fruit, grains, and vegetables.

Avoid smoking tobacco and imbibing alcohol if you desire skin that radiates with vitality.

If you follow these tips, you'll be able to cheat the effects of aging, without doubt.

But, nothing lasts forever.

Not even the mortal coil that God blessed us with.
