Anna and Hatchette Book Group are generously sponsoring this giveaway of 3 copies of Babushka's Beauty Secrets: Old World Tips for a Glamorous New You
DON'T SPEND A FORTUNE TO LOOK FLAWLESS Esthetician to the stars Raisa Ruder learned her time-tested beauty techniques from her Ukrainian grandmother (or babushka, as they say in the old country). Now everyone can discover the all-natural, better-than-botox secrets the Hollywood stars use to shine on the red carpet! Ruder reveals her sought-after beauty recipes that can fight wrinkles, plump lips, and eliminate crow's feet and acne, using inexpensive, everyday grocery items like eggs, honey, vegetable oil and strawberries (and a splash of vodka for freshness!). At last, by popular demand, Raisa Ruder opens up her babushka's secret pantry and shares her most amazing and effective beauty advice:
- Skin-saving Soufflés - whipped up wonders that shrink pores, brighten skin, and diminish lines
- Chocolate weight-loss wrap- a moment on the hips, tightens, tucks, and nips!
- Hot hair- a cayenne pepper blend that leaves locks silky, soft, and full
- PediPure- a soothing, smoothing foot scrub made with milk and mint
- Lustrous Lashes - a simple castor oil serum that thickens and lengthens
- Perfect Pucker- a mix of salt, green tea, and fruit that plumps up lips naturally
- And much more...

For seven years she worked at the famed Anastasia salon doing eyebrows and facials until opening her own West Hollywood salon in 2005. She noticed the large amount of preservatives in American products and decided to introduce her Babushka's old world beauty recipes in her salon. She quickly became LA's go-to-girl. Her clients include: Madonna,Tyra Banks, Molly Simms, Ali Larter, Nicolette Sheridan and others. ...

I love using organic coconut oil in my hair. Not only it helps out with hair growth and moisturization, but it also prevents hair breakage. It is also good for the skin!

I combine aspirin, honey and a small amount of water and apply to my face as a mask. I can see and feel improvement in my skin tone almost instantly. Thanks for the great contest :)
Like my mother did, I use Vaseline to keep my skin looking young(ish)!

Oops. I forgot to answer the question in my previous post. Just disregard the previous post and use this one as my one entry. Hmm. A beauty secret. Use lotion as a make-up remover if you run out of make-up remover solution. This works wonders for eyeliner especially.

the only beauty secret I know is that putting cucumbers on your eyes when they are puffy helps reduce the puffiness.

Sunscreen is the one beauty trick that I think is the most essential in my experience, but maybe that's just because I'm so pale. ;)

The only beauty secret that I know is to use emu oil on your feet at night and cover them with cotton socks to keep from getting it on the sheets. It will make the skin on your feet as soft as a baby's bottom.
I am a follower.
Thank you,
