Suzanne Somers Health and Beauty Secrets

Celebrity beauty secrets - Suzanne Somers
At 62 years old, celebrity Suzanne Somers looks fabulous, but how much of this is real? What are her beauty secrets? Granted, some of her good looks can be attributed to good genes. We also know from her books that she uses bioidentical hormones which are known to improve wellbeing and deal with the symptoms of menopause and fight other problems associated with aging. Suzanne is a living example of anti-aging at its best.

We also know that she eats a healthy diet, has a regular exercise routine of yoga and keeps herself active and participating fully in life. She is busy promoting eternal youth, house and health care products and she takes nutritional supplements, vitamins – quite a lot in fact and natural hormone supplementation and injections. It is most likely that she uses her most famous exercise product which she promotes – The Thigh Master.

Also, we do know that she is not actually against plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery. She agrees with the use of Botox and collagen injections which she has stated in her book, “Ageless”. However, she does not agree with getting too much done and that your goals should be to look natural.

She also has a good haircut and uses makeup properly. She is not trying to look like 25 years old. She is looking like herself and she is well done. She dresses her age and avoids looking frumpy.

Judging from photos, it looks like she has had some facial plastic surgery, including a browlift, blepharoplasty and a possible facelift. No doubt she has also had some fillers such as Botox and some collagen injections in the lips. Her face is firm probably due to a facelift. There is fullness in her cheeks, likely because of cosmetic fillers. And why not? She wants to retain her good looks, she is a public figure and lastly, she can afford it.

She takes care of her body from the inside – out. By eating correctly and eating real foods, limiting her caffeine and alcohol intake, exercising and taking bioidentical hormones, she is taking care of her health. In her book, “Ageless”, she reports that she takes the following nutritional supplements:

Calcium – for strong bones
Vitamin C – 1000 mg daily
St. John’s Wort – for its ability to calm
Vitamin E
Glucosamine – for the joints and cartilage
Selenium
CoQ10 – for the heart
Phosphatidylcholine
Zinc
Rhodiola
Zyflamend
White tea extract
LycoPom
Smoke Shield – to guard against environmental pollution
Reishi Mushroom
Cinnamon
Multivitamins

I think Suzanne Somers looks great for her age. If we follow her routine and her healthy lifestyle, we can all look this good at 62. Really, her beauty secrets are no secret at all but rather the result of taking care of oneself, from the inside out.

Plastic Surgery Secrets in Hollywood


Let’s just face it, the best kept beauty secrets among Hollywood beauties, male and female, is not their affairs, breakdowns, shopping sprees but rather plastic surgery. In an industry where beauty and thinness is a prerequisite for working in Hollywood, celebrities must maintain their good looks and their great bodies. With the advances in plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery, Hollywood celebrities are lining up to get this and that fixed as they age.

But age is no longer limited to celebrities as they hit say, 38 or 40 or older. The younger set of actors and actresses are also getting plastic surgery to fix what they think is not “perfect”.

Who are some of the younger celebrities that are getting plastic surgery? It was thought that Rihanna got breast implants but this is just a false rumour. She is known to wear outfits which push her breasts up and out. However, she doesn’t deny that when she gets older, she will probably go under the knife, but for the meantime, she is happy with her looks and wants to stay as natural as possible.

Adrienne Bailon of Cheetah Girls has definitely had some breast implants if you look at some before and after photos of her. No bra can work such wonders as to make the boobs look the way hers do in later photographs.

Chase Crawford, of Gossip Girl, only 23 years old is rumoured to have had a nose job to make his nose appear narrower.

Lindsay Lohan, only a tender 22 years old, but the willing participant of wild all night parties has had to have Botox, according to our sources. Botox has been used to lift her eyebrows, remove some deep creases on her forehead and soften the lines under her eyes. Alcohol and excessive partying can definitely ruin your looks. Read more about celebrities and partying here.

Megan Fox, 22 years old, very sexy and beautiful is rumoured to get Botox injections on the set. It is also rumoured that she has had breast implants, a nose job and lip injections.

Miley Cyrus, 16, and Zac Efron, 21, have had their teeth fixed to show off their great smiles. Miley has had teeth whitening and bonding and Zac has had the space between his two front teeth fixed.

Is Botox necessary? It’s a tool that mere mortals and celebrities use to look better. Botox does not last forever and you have to get Botox re-done about every six months. Botox is not known to have side effects in most people. How does Botox works? It weakens the muscles that cause wrinkles to form. Young people are using it as a preventative measure. But it seems the younger people are who start using it, the more likely it is to become an addiction.

Plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery and fillers like Botox are usually some of the most closely guarded celebrity beauty secrets around, but with some of the great results obtained by the stars, it’s hard to keep it a secret.
