Christina Aguilera releasings a new fragrance!

Despite the trouble surrounding pop star Christina Aguilera in recent weeks, Life & Style can exclusively reveal that the singer is launching a new fragrance.

On March 3 Christina did a photo shoot for her new perfume, Secret Potion. Her son Max was on set with his mom, an insider close to Christina tells Life & Style.

“He wasn’t feeling good, so she wanted to take care of him and make sure they were together,” the insider reveals.“She’s trying to spend as much time as possible with him while she works, so Max brought his toys and played with his little cars while she did the shoot.”

This is one of the many perfume launches for Christina, her last was Royal Desire released in September 2010.

Amanda Seyfried told she needs to do Botox!

Can you believe that!? She’s stunning!

Amanda Seyfried is on the April cover of Elle Magazine, and in and interview with the magazine, she opens up about her breakup from boyfriend Dominic Cooper (the couple dated for a year after they starred together in ‘Mamma Mia!’), her current love life, her best on-screen kisses, and being inspired by Meryl Streep.

On being told she needed to get botox: “I was like, Damn you! But we’re in Hollywood. I’m on a huge screen. With these new digital cameras, you can see the peach fuzz on my face.”

On her best on-screen kisses: “I can’t lie. It didn’t suck making out with Channing [Tatum] and Justin [Timberlake]. “

On who she would like to be paired up with next: “I’d really love to make out with Michael Fassbender. Put me in a movie with that guy. I’m serious. Wow.”

On falling in love on set: “[It is] one of the easiest things in the world. You’re both open. You’re put in a situation where you have to make out with each other. It’s easy for things to get carried away.”

On how she thought her recent ex Dominic Cooper was breaking up with his longtime girlfriend to be with her: “I was just kind of foolishly thinking that the two of them were done and Dom and I were involved. But we weren’t really as involved as I thought. So I got my heart broken pretty hard.”

On eventually getting back together with Cooper: “…and then it took a long time for us to break up again. After that, it’s really hard to open myself up to a new person. Really hard.”

On her rumored romance with Ryan Phillippe: “Um, yeah. I’ve been ‘seen’ with him.”

On Alexander Skarsgård: “We dated. He’s superfunny, but I was too involved with Dom.”

On being inspired by Meryl Streep’s famously down-to-earth attitude: “Meryl, she makes herself very accessible right away, almost too accessible. That’s what I do. And it totally works. My thing about meeting people—men, women, people in general—is to desensitize them, kind of shock them a little bit, to make myself accessible.”

Make Her Up Introduces neuLash!

A multitude of mechanical aggressors such as mascaras, eyelash curlers, make-up removers, tinting/perm treatments, false eyelashes/glues, and medications all weaken the structure of eyelashes. Also playing a key factor in slowing down the renewal process of eyelashes is aging. neuLash active eyelash technology offers maximum protection by delivering essential proteins, vitamins, moisturizing and rejuvenating ingredients to replenish and strengthen the structure of lashes, while adding shine and elasticity.

Conditioning eyelashes with neuLash® provides protection against breakage, hydrates, and makes lashes healthier (just like conditioner does for the hair), allowing lashes to stay on the lid longer. This gives them the opportunity to appear fuller and thicker – naturally. In contrast, the prescription drug for lashes only promotes growth without conditioning.

I received this product a couple weeks ago, and I wanted to give myself a while to try it – and decide whether or not this product actually works. I’ve tried several lash products that don’t actually live up to what they claim. I’m happy to report that after using nueLash for a couple weeks, it absolutely works! I’ve noticed a difference in the condition of my eyelashes! They are healthier, longer, and fuller!

neuLash® offers maximum protection for lashes by delivering essential proteins, vitamins, peptides, moisturizing and rejuvenating ingredients to replenish and strengthen lashes. The result is healthier and thicker-looking lashes in as little as two weeks, with maximum results at eight weeks. On the other hand, the prescription drug does not contain essential vitamins, proteins or peptides, does not condition lashes, and can take up to 16 weeks to achieve results.

With its consumer friendly and easy to use eyeliner-like applicator, neulash® is also more economical than the prescription drug product and contains about a three month supply, for an average cost of $1.67 per day. The average cost of the prescription drug is $4.00 per day for a one month supply. Also, you do not need a doctor’s visit or a prescription to obtain neuLash®, which is available at www.neuLash.com, Saks Fifth Avenue stores nationwide and www.saks.com, and Neiman Marcus stores nationwide and www.neimanmarcus.com.

neuLash® should be applied once daily in the evening before bedtime to the base of the upper eyelash on a clean, dry area, starting from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner. It is made for both men and women, and it can be used by those who have eyelash extensions and contact lenses.
