We can always count on celebrities to serve as guinea pigs for the
latest
cosmetic and beauty treatments. During the Botox ™ craze, even director
Martin Scorsese commented that he couldn’t find actresses who could
frown anymore! Perhaps actors, politicians, musicians and the like all
grew tired of looking like Stepford wives because the latest cosmetic
craze involves Hyaluronic acid, a key component of human tissue,
providing the body with essential moisture and a viable way to erase
wrinkles without the loss of facial expression. Hyaluronic acid is
available in facial injections reportedly favored by celebrities like
Charlie Sheen, Tommy Lee Jones and Oprah Winfrey who have chosen
Restylane, a Hyaluronic acid wrinkle-filler that works to lift the lip,
wrinkle or fold and create volume. Hyaluronic acid injections do not
relax muscles but instead “fill in” areas most affected by wrinkles and
fine lines.
There are also several new, non-invasive beauty products that contain
Hylauronic acid or work to stimulate the body’s own Hyaluronic acid
production. Apparently full lips a la Angelina Jolie are a must-have
because celebrities of all ages are going gaga for City Lips, a cutting
edge product developed by City Lips Cosmetics. The City Lips product
stimulates lips to produce their own collagen and Hyaluronic acid,
painlessly increasing the size of lips. According to Karen Rauen, Good
Housekeeping Institute’s chemistry director, "The City Lips lip
plumper, we found, plumps people's lips an average of three
millimeters.” Celebrities like Teri Hatcher, Nicolette Sheridan, Jamie
Lynn Discala, Virginia Madsen, Melissa Rivers, Angela Bassett, Lacy
Chabert, Lake Bell, Eliza Dushku, Bijou Phillips, Haylie Duff, Kathy
Griffin, Tracy Ross, Marlee Matlin, Shannon Elizabeth, Michelle
Rodriguez, Faith Evans, Giuliana Depandi, Debbie Matenopoulos and
Princess Ann Claire, are reportedly huge fans of City Lip Cosmetics.
There are other Hyaluronic acid boosting “lip plumpers” on the cosmetic
market including Lucky Lips which allegedly increases Hyaluronic acid
levels by 148% just 48 hours after use. Other celeb Hyaluronic acid
beauty favorites include Hydrating Gel Cream from Prada Beauty, a
lightweight, sheer cream featuring Hyaluronic acid and Rest-A-Line Face
Treatment by Joey New York, an anti-aging cream rich with Hyaluronic
acid which helps the skin hold 1000 times its weight in water, causing
a natural plumping effect. All in all, between facial injections and
non-evasive beauty creams, it seems like there is much hope on the
frontier for finding that elusive fountain of youth; for celebrities
and for common folk, alike!
