Miranda Kerr regards her KORA Organics Noni juice skincare range to be “like food for the skin”.

By Andrea Petrou on December 6th, 2011

Miranda Kerr regards her KORA Organics Noni juice skincare range to be “like food for the skin”.

The Victoria’s Secret model struggled to find a skincare product that worked well before she created her cosmetics line – which features solutions made from natural ingredients such as rose-hip oil and pomegranate – and she finds Noni fruit a useful tool to use on the affects of sunburn.

She said: “I was looking for an organic product that really worked for me, but I couldn’t find one. I used to put it on my skin if I had a pimple or sunburn. It’s like food for the skin.”

The 28-year-old beauty – who has a 11-month-old son Flynn with her husband Orlando Bloom – admits she was a “guinea pig” for Kora by trying out every product in a bid to find something to treat her feet.

She added on her KORA Organics blog: “I was really the guinea pig for Kora; I tested everything. Being on my heels all the time, I wanted to create a cream to put on after a long day. And it doesn’t hurt that my husband, Orlando, is very good at massaging it into my feet.”

Jennifer Lopez’s beauty routine has suffered since she became a mother.

By Andrea Petrou on April 5th, 2011

Jennifer Lopez’s beauty routine has suffered since she became a mother.

The singer-and-actress – who has three-year-old twins Max and Emme with husband Marc Anthony – revealed she never gets a minute to herself anymore and barely even has time to have a bath alone without the kids wanting her attention.

She told Britain’s HELLO! magazine: “It can be hard. Sometimes it’s like literally I’m taking a bath and Max is off with the clothes and in the tub with me or in the shower. You don’t have a minute by yourself. Go to the bathroom? Baby standing right there. I’m like ‘Go outside.’ Emme’s like, ‘No way’. So yeah it’s tough.”

Jennifer has previously admitted her famously toned stomach is proving difficult to maintain since having children.

She explained: “I’ve always been athletic and really enjoyed that. And I’ve never been a big eater.

“But since I had the babies, it’s been harder. Your body does change. Not too drastically, but I definitely have to work harder and watch what I eat more.

“I’ve never had to work on my stomach before – it was like, concave, I was a lucky person – but since the babies, I do. I really have to work on it.”

Cheryl Cole takes two hours to get ready for a red carpet event

By Andrea Petrou on March 29th, 2011

Cheryl Cole takes two hours to get ready for a red carpet event.

The stunning singer says she likes to take her time when she goes to glamorous events as she wants to look her best as well as really enjoying the process.

She said: “I don’t think I’m a high-maintenance girl once I’m out and about, it’s getting ready that’s the problem – it takes me a couple of hours to get red carpet ready. But I love the process of going from wet hair to the end result.”

However, it doesn’t matter whether Cheryl is hitting the red carpet or just going out for drinks with friends, there are certain beauty items she always uses.

When asked what she carries in her handbag, the 27-year-old beauty – who is the face of cosmetics firm L’Oreal – told Britain’s Hello! magazine: “I always have Glam shine lip gloss because it’s easy to put on and you don’t need a mirror, which is handy because I always forget to have a mirror in my bag.

“I carry Telescopic, the mascara I use, and my perfume, which I change all the time. At the moment I use a Jo Malone one, Nectarine and Honey. And a hairbrush.”

By Andrea Petrou on March 14th, 2011

Sarah Harding has electric facials to stop her from getting spots.

The Girls Aloud singer keeps her complexion blemish-free with a special beauty treatment from cosmetic company Guinot which uses an electrical current to treat your skin.

She said: “The Guinot facials are amazing. They do an amazing Micro-Derm facial that has this electrical current that runs through your skin. It’s magnetic and makes this buzzing noise. It really helps with your spots and balances out your skin.”

The 29-year-old star doesn’t only pamper her face, she also uses hot stones to keep her body looking great.

She added: “I also love a good massage – especially with hot stones. I love everything about spas and spending days getting pampered.”

Sarah – who is engaged to DJ Tom Crane – is taking her beauty regime more seriously the older she gets because she wants to stay looking young.

She said: “I’ve started looking after myself a bit more than I used to. I’m getting regular facials and massages, trying to eat well – that sort of thing . When you’re in the public eye you’re always going to scrutinise yourself. You want to look a certain way and try to maintain that and it’s difficult.”
