Easy Tips for Busy Women to Stay Beautiful

Every woman has the desire for a great figure, radiant skin and a beautiful Hollywood smile. But the demands of work and family life often get in the way of maintaining a healthy beauty and fitness routine.

As a celebrity and working mother, actress Brooke Shields leads a busy life trying to balance family and a successful career. To help her look and feel her best without compromising her health, Brooke works with a team of experts who provide her with expert advice and tips. And now, for the first time, these tips are available to women across America.

Brooke's Healthy Upgrade Team consists of three women who have mastered the art of balancing health and beauty in Hollywood. Jeanne Yang, celebrity beauty expert, Stacey Griffith, celebrity fitness trainer, and Dr. Michele L. Dozier, an established and highly qualified dentist, know that busy women need simple beauty tips which don't involve extra time or money. Their celebrity insider secrets are now available at www.ColgateTotal.com.

Yang, credited with the transformation of Katie Holmes, recommends every woman carry a bottle of jojoba oil to moisturize her fingernails and cuticles. Jojoba oil can also be used to help sweep hair up into a quick ponytail or bun for a polished look on a hectic day.

Griffith advises women to exercise while doing regular household chores. For a good bicep, tricep and pectoral muscle workout, grab a soapy sponge and make tiny little clockwise circles in the sink. Increase the pace and make larger circles as you clean. Switch hands, rinse, and repeat. Not only are the arms toned, but that sink is ready for the next cooking project as well.

Dozier knows a white smile makes for a younger-looking face, but she doesn't want women to neglect the health of their mouths.

"Take a break from tooth-staining antioxidants like blueberries and cherries," she says. "Instead, try oranges, pineapples and kiwi fruits which are rich in antioxidants, but less-likely to stain your teeth."

In addition, Dozier recommends using a toothpaste that protects against plaque, tartar build-up, and gum inflammation and has a whitening ingredient. Colgate Total Advanced Whitening has a 12-hour germ-fighting formula and an advanced whitening silica system that helps remove surface stains for a brighter, healthier smile.

"Women are always looking for ways to better themselves, and if we can help them to do so, then we feel accomplished," Dozier says.
