We all know washing your hair daily can do some serious damage, stripping away natural oils and leaving your coif dry and brittle. Even if dry shampoo freaked you out in the past, you'll love the modern versions like Arrojo's ReFINISH. Infused with aloe and ginger, this formula absorbs excess oil while creating texture and volume.

Voted Best Quick Fix by Allure Magazine, this is another dry shampoo we can't get enough of. In a matter of minutes, this lemon verbena- scented product rejuvenates hair by absorbing excess oil, removing product buildup and boosting volume.

If you don't have time to wash your hair but can spare five minutes for your blowdryer, nothing can revive your mane like a quick blowout. T3's award-winning Featherweight Hair Dryer works at lightning speed for the professional finish you can rarely achieve outside the salon.

If you've been running around the city all day and need a little hair therapy, this lightly scented, oil-absorbing powder from Stila is the perfect remedy. It adds volume without weighing hair down and smells fantastic... what's not to love?

For all you curly-haired gals looking for a post-winter refresher, Ouidad's Botanical Boost is the ultimate nourishing tool. This lightweight leave-in conditioner is designed to soften, moisturize, detangle and fight frizz for healthy, bouncy curls.

*UPDATE: Fashion Copious has amended the statement: “What I meant was that Testino is a lazy photographer that lacks a point of view at this stage of his life. And hence am surprised that he’s being hired and paid handsomely for his [currently] shitty work.”

That said, behold the stunning Karlie Kloss.

Dolce & Gabbana Ultra-Shine Lip Gloss $29 – Pat McGrath, Creative Advisor for Dolce&Gabbana The Make Up, offers her wise words about this ultra-luxurious gloss:  “The golden pearl and iridescent shades can be used to highlight the centre of lips for a fuller looking pout.”

You can see Selena Gomez‘s Skinny Britches peeking out from her Dolce & Gabbana dress when she gets up to give Justin Bieber a hug at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards.

Blake Lively‘s Simplicity Panty peeks out through the sheer back of her dress at the Cinema Society’s Twelve screening.

Eva Longoria brought the Hide & Sleek Mid-Thigh Smoother with her to an Allure Magazine party.

Oops! What’s that peeking out from Jennifer Lopez‘s dress at the Gucci Children’s Collection launch? It looks like the Slim Cognito Shape-Suit.

She may be going to the Giorgio Armani couture show in Paris, but Katie Holmes prefers simplicity, the Simplicity Shaper to be exact.

How does Kim Kardashian get such a shapely, feminine body? Check out her Spanx secret, not-so-discreetly peeking out from her dress.

What’s that on stage with Katy Perry? I think I see In-Power Line Super Power Panties making an appearance.

WINTER GLOW HERE

Even, if these videos are a bit on the lame side, the winter glow is a total thumbs up!

Right now, I’m completely inspired by Alexa Chung (above), a British model/writer/TV host. (I’m not the only one; she just won a British Fashion Award.) Her clothes are quirky but put-together, and her makeup is the same way. Chung somehow makes neutral brown eye shadows pop yet can follow that up for her next outing with just mascara and bold fuchsia lipstick; she seems like the type of woman who would never fall into a beauty rut. In fact, my brown-to-blonde ombré hair color was inspired by her—and since she just chopped her hair into a cute shaggy bob this week, I’m thinking of trying it myself. (Allure)

Whether you go classic or current, who is your beauty icon?

Baby Foreskin

They’re after your wee foreskin, baby — crawl away while you still can! Seriously, though, several injectable cosmetic fillers, including Cosmoplast, Vavelta, and Cosmoderm, are made with cells sourced from infant foreskins because it’s an easy way to obtain usable human collagen and fibroblasts. I’m not asking how, exactly, the cosmetic companies get these, but I do hope they at least sent a present to the bris.

Caviar

They’re after your wee foreskin, baby — crawl away while you still can! Seriously, though, several injectable cosmetic fillers, including Cosmoplast, Vavelta, and Cosmoderm, are made with cells sourced from infant foreskins because it’s an easy way to obtain usable human collagen and fibroblasts. I’m not asking how, exactly, the cosmetic companies get these, but I do hope they at least sent a present to the bris.

Civet Cat Musk

Want to smell like cat butt? Then civet cat musk is theanimalic for you. Derived from the cat’s perineal (read: booty) glands, civetone is a popular ingredient in many high-end perfumes and colognes. Synthetic civetone is available, but many perfumers use musk sourced from civet farmers, who routinely “scrape” their cats’ glands for the substance. If you’re uncomfortable with the idea that your scent may be sourced from a caged animal, then check to make sure your fragrance doesn’t use natural civetone.

Snail Trail

Here’s a new use for all those slugs in your yard. Chilean brand Arenscaracol claims that smearing their snail slime-filled products on will improve skin strength, repair damaged tissue, and create a smoother complexion. Poor snails, first escargot and now this indignity. Won’t somebody think of the invertebrates?

Sheep Placenta

There’s a chance that at some point, you’ve had sheep afterbirth in your hair. Brands like Hask, which has its own Placenta line, proudly advertise the ingredient, but plenty of other strengthening conditioners and hair treatment masques use it under the radar.

Botulism

BotulismWe’re always warned not to buy dented canned goods because of the botulism risk. But when this nasty bacteria is controlled, you get useful botulinum toxins A and B, or Botox and Dysport as they’re known in popular discourse. So to recap: bad to eat; good for relaxing wrinkles.

Snake Venom

Want to freeze your wrinkles without using botulism? Syn-ake, a lab-synthesized version of paralytic temple viper venom, claims to provide a muscle-relaxing alternative. The jury’s still out on just how well it works, but brands like Sonya Dakar and Peter Thomas Roth use Syn-ake in their antiaging lines, and Gwyneth Paltrow is said to be a fan of this unusual ingredient.

Carmine/Cochineal

Are you wearing red lipstick or gloss? Don’t freak out like this lady, but there could be squished bugs on your lips right now. Macerated cochineal bugs are a very common source of red coloring, but until recently, cosmetic companies weren’t required to identify the colors as such, using deceptive terms like “artificial colors,” “natural red,” and “crimson lake.” Last year, though, the FDA ruled that companies have to start listing the dye as cochineal or carmine by 2011. If you don’t like insect juice in your makeup and food, this is the perfect time to start reading your labels.

Bull Semen

Semen apparently has plenty of protein, which makes it a good strengthening and deep conditioning hair treatment. At Hari’s Salon in London, if you have 45 minutes and $100, you can get a bull sperm hair treatment. Given the fact that wheat protein or keratin are probably just as beneficial, though, this is one ingredient that truly is total bull.

Whale Vomit

Fancy perfume fixative ambergris gets hocked up like a cat hairball by sperm whales (fortunately not Shamu here; orcas are technically dolphins anyway). It can also be obtained by cutting open the whale’s intestines, and there’s a long history of sperm whale slaughter in pursuit of the stuff. Nowadays, most fragrances are formulated with a synthetic, animal-friendly alternative called ambrox, but perfume houses like Creed and Serge Luytens are rumored to continue use of real ambergris.

Thanks Allure Magazine for the nasty update.

A little over a month from turning 50, the actress proves she can still turn heads, including hunky Michael Brager.

Wow, to think that vajayjay is half a century old. I wish someone would throw an Oscar at it already, though.

To think, vaginas with considerbly less age and talent have Oscars and Julianne Moore’s doesn’t.

What’s wrong with the world?

Megan Fox’s public persona seems to only be the tip of the iceberg. A complete industry outcast, here is what she had to say about attending parties, “everyone blows sunshine up everyone else’s ass. I hate receiving compliments; I hate being told I’m talented or people think I’m going to be a movie star. I always feel that it’s forced and fake.” More after the jump…

Check out outtakes from her cover shoot with Greg Kadel at Milk Studios in Los Angeles, plus photos from the actress’s 2008 Allure fashion spread.
