Confidence and Curves I recently saw a sign that said “Don’t be jealous because I can still fit into the same size earrings as I wore in high school.” It was the perfect little jab at all those women who brag about how their sizes haven’t changed. Confidence comes from knowing that change is as good as you feel about it. My reality is that I have gone up ten sizes, and proportionately increased my social IQ, so it’s definitely a win-win. Especially since plus size swimwear is where all the action and attraction is…just check this issue for the best tummy taming, hip hiding, bust boosting and gorgeously styled swimsuits that have ever been coveted by curves! As for the real-life stuff, this issue addresses how we can raise confident girls who become empowered women, as well as how to have a productive argument with our spouses, family and friends. For fun, we have the girl crushes who give us validation, inspiration and fashion know-how. All about summer, we’ve also got the best in beauty, health and fashion to make you thrive, not just survive, the heat! We heard from so many of you about the first issue of fullbeauty magazine, and have been busy making sure you have more of what you’ve asked for. Makeovers? You’ll love this issue’s babe and business makeovers. Makeup? The best trends and step-by-step tips. And lots more.

CALLING ALL CURVES I saw the news report and it was so weird that they made a big deal of curvy women in swimsuits. Thanks for showing how great curves can look and for a really fun new magazine. Susan A.
I’ve received the premier issue of fullbeauty and can only say “IT’S ABOUT TIME!” fullbeauty has captured the spirit and vivaciousness of what it means to be a “fullbeauty” and celebrates that spirit completely. Plus size women will no longer sit on the sidelines and be ignored by the fashion and beauty industries. fullbeauty embraces us for our unique style and celebrates it to the fullest! LONG LIVE THE FULLBEAUTY QUEENS! Jen S.
TEACHING REALITY
MEGHAN TRAINOR
I was so enamored with the fullbeauty premier issue! As a cover-to-cover type magazine reader, content is important in order to keep my attention and I was not disappointed. As a teacher, I make an effort to have literature that reflects my students in terms of family groups and ethnicity. How awesome for me to see a tasteful and thoughtful representation of who I am and the issues that are important to me!
She’s the first singer that both my daughter and I sing along to. She’s adorable and I loved your calling her a “Betty”…I didn’t even have to explain it to my daughter. Heard you had her sing at a party. I’m so jealous!
Arlene M.
STYLE STAR More makeovers please and more how-to to get the look. Never thought I would see women like me in such a gorgeous looking magazine.

Hello beautiful
THE PREMIER FASHION DESTINATION FOR SIZES 12+
FASHION NEWS
Woman Within.
The Brand that understands women inside and out. What innovations is Woman Within doing in fashion, fabrication and fit? There are so many exciting things happening with fabric right now. We are developing many more packable and reversible items—imagine the convenience that brings to a woman’s life! We are also using new fabrications in leggings called “cozy” that will allow us to provide leggings that will give the best fit, the best feeling and the absolutely most flattering look.
Meet
Patti Simigran
SVP / Brand Manager, Woman Within Why do you think there is so much focus on curvy fashion right now? When business is challenging, there’s the desire to connect with new opportunities. While many retailers have consistently made plus-size an afterthought, they are now discovering what we have known for decades…women of all sizes want and deserve the same fashion options as their thinner counterparts. The good news is that competition always improves everyone’s game and, as the leader in plus-size fashion, we continue to increase our relevancy in both style and fit. What is unique about Woman Within in both merchandise and approach to customers? We recognize that basics and classics really define a woman’s wardrobe, and we make sure we offer choice, color, comfort, convenience and always value-conscious merchandise. While it’s great to follow trends, being ‘trendy’ is short-lived, so we focus on great fashion in a fabulous assortment of colors at a value that she cannot find anywhere. And of course, fit and comfort are imperative to any woman who wants to feel as good as she looks. In fact, you can shop by fit! Our approach has earned us the trust and confidence of our customers.
14 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
What are the new staples that a woman needs in her closet? The good news is that a woman has so many more options as to what she can wear to work or out at night, but certain things just make her life so much easier. Great fitting pants, leggings and jeans, because different tops are more flattering with certain bottoms. A black dress because it is a definite go-to when you don’t know how dressed everyone else is going to be. Lots of colorful tees, a few beautiful tunics, and I love crisp, slightly oversized shirts for versatility worn alone or over tank tops. A great maxi and you’re all set!

Girl Crush Who’s your
We all have them, those ‘crushes’ that surpass envy or jealousy and
move right into admiration; that transcend size, age or race. We asked
around and found quite the combination of girl crushes, but the common thread was definitely an empowered attitude and a unique style.
20 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
CELEBS
Rebel
with a Cause
WHY WE LOVE HER Let’s start with her genius parents who knew to name her Rebel! Really, her name is Rebel Melanie Elizabeth Wilson! Another ‘overnight success’ who’s been working for over 10 years, Rebel has been referred to as having a “post-fat state of mind”…huh? Rebel views her shape as an asset… “I took something that was seen as a disadvantage—no one thinks, if you’re fat, that you’re going to be an actress and everyone’s going to love you—and I turned it into a positive,” she told Australia’s Daily Life. She’s an Aussie chick with major attitude, and just when you think she is making fun of herself, she’s really just putting you in your place. It’s like her character said in Pitch Perfect when asked her name: Aubrey: What’s your name? Fat Amy: Fat Amy. Aubrey: You call yourself Fat Amy? Fat Amy: Yeah, so twig bitches like you don’t do it behind my back. That irreverence is in everything this very smart chick does, both professionally and personally. She has a law degree and at only 29 has carved a niche resulting in great film roles like her breakout Bridesmaids, her own TV show, “Super Fun Night”, and last year’s, Night at the Museum with Ben Stiller and Robin Williams. This year, it’s all about her performance with Anna Kendrick in Pitch Perfect 2. Next year, watch for her in three films including Grimsby with Sasha Cohen and Penelope Cruz. Even hyper-critical Simon Cowell calls Rebel “a total star” and she counts Sam Smith and Ellen Degeneres as major fans.
Isn’t She Tweet? “Why don’t they just invent jeans you can wear unbuttoned.”
# “Who can train for a marathon? I’m currently training to be able to blow dry AND straighten my own hair without having to take a break.”
# PRETENDING TO BE JENNIFER LAWRENCE’S SISTER, SHE SAID:
“Jennifer’s so generous. She gave me her Oscars dress and said I could wear it as a scarf.” STEAL HER STYLE Rebel has a reputation for her quirky style, but she also has a beautiful ladylike thing going. Like her acting, she doesn’t believe you can only have one style. She embraces her curves and loves color!!
FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015 21
Everybody’s WHY WE LOVE HER Regardless of your size, shape, age or ethnicity, everybody loves Jennifer Lopez. It could simply be that she rocks the world…or maybe it’s that she’s been the ‘comeback kid’ more than any other female star. You just have to love the staying power of this girl. Her rollercoaster career and personal rides make it clear that the butt-kicking girl in Enough has nothing on JLo. After a modest upbringing in the Bronx, Jenny from the block became the first Latina actress to earn over $1 million for a film role and was the first person to have a number one album (JLo) and film (The Wedding Planner) in the same week. She is regarded as the most powerful Hispanic performer in the United States with a net worth of 400 million.
Her charmed life hasn’t always been that charming, especially living her successes and failures in the public eye. Now, JLo can finally appreciate and accept herself and her good fortune.
“I don’t regret what I’ve been through. I’ve had ups and downs, super highs and some really low lows. I’ve been so blessed that I could never say, I wish this didn’t happen. It’s part of who I am. There’s nothing in my life that’s so ugh.”
22 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
Yet, she has also been in some of the biggest ‘bombs’ in film history and who could forget Ben Affleck cancelling their wedding 4 days before the ceremony…or the tell-alls by dumped exes. Besides her entertainment triple threat (actress, singer, producer), she has clothing lines, accessories, fragrances and now has a line of breakfast shakes… who wouldn’t girl crush on her? She originally played by the rules, but now she makes her own rules. And she’s back with a vengeance, great on “American Idol”, credible in Boy Next Door, and impressive opposite the fabulous Viola Davis (every smart girl’s girl-crush) in Lila and Eve.
Girl
JLo also invented the fashion-for-publicity approach, starting with the down-to-the-naval dress she wore to the Grammy Awards in 2000. She has (almost) never disappointed us with provocative and incredible clothes.
STEAL HER STYLE That’s an impossible task, since JLo has as many styles as she does hair extensions….and that’s a lot! There are 3 hints to getting it. 1. Focus on one body part, not all of them. Early in her career, it was all about her butt. When recently asked how she has always embraced her body, JLo said, “My mom had a big butt and my dad loved it. So I just grew up thinking this was a good thing.” The body parts she likes to bare now? Showing off her age-defying midriff. 2. Her favorite colors are white and red, because both complement her skintone, but she is now venturing into pastels. 3. Hair is her most important accessory, often pulled back tight to show off her face, retro-waved or sexy tousled.
The Queen’s Game! “Living Single”, “Fresh Prince” and “Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper”. This was while she continued to be a very successful rapper. Then it was big time, starring in The Bone Collector with Denzel and Angelina (hey, who needs last names). After an Academy Award nod for best supporting actress in Chicago, she starred in one of my favorite movies, Bringing Down the House with Steve Martin. There are certain movies that I watch when I just want (or need) to laugh, and that’s one of them. Since then, she has had both leading and supporting roles in Scary Movie 3, Taxi, Hairspray, Last Holiday, Stranger Than Fiction, Mad Money, and Joyful Noise, among others. With her distinctive voice, Queen was also the voice of Ellie in Ice Age: The Meltdown.
WHY WE LOVE HER Dana Elaine Owens, better known as Queen Latifah, is a rapper, songwriter, soul and jazz singer, actress, model, television producer, record producer, comedienne, author and talk show host. Oh, she also has a Golden Globe Award, two Screen Actors Guild Awards, two Image Awards, a Grammy Award and both Emmy and Oscar nominations. And that’s only in her first 45 years! Back in high school, she was a power forward (of course she was) on her high school’s basketball team and acted in school plays. Overachiever is an understatement. Queen Latifah has tried to go back to her real name, but somehow everyone just refuses to let her abdicate the throne. For us, Dana will always be royalty. She broke through the hip hop boys’ club in 1988 by rapping about issues of black women, and has continued that social consciousness throughout her career…just ask Dolly Parton, one of her many fans and co-star of the film Joyful Noise! For those with really good memories, Queen Latifah was on dozens of hit shows in the 90’s, including
24 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
Queen Latifah has been referred to as “a mix of earthiness and effervescent”, as was consistently evident when she was hosting her TV talk show. True to herself and her fans, Dana’s book, Ladies First, is the ‘real’ story of her tough decisions and her mistakes, tragic deaths in her life and her coming out of the other side of depression with a sustaining love in God. It’s about “Being confident and sensual in a big, strong body and about blocking out the junk to let in the good. It is about how anyone— whether from the poorest means or the richest— can hold her head high in a world full of attitude.” There’s something about Queen Latifah, not unlike Oprah, that instills self esteem, respect, and courage in others, because that is how she lives her own life. Her combination of peace and independence, of writing her own rules while still being able to play the game. It’s that power forward in high school all over again…powerful, always in motion and moving forward. All hail the Queen.
STEAL HER STYLE If there was one word to describe her style, it would be eclectic. She can rock a baseball cap and jersey just as easily as she can strut her glamour in an all-out stunning and curve-hugging red gown with sheer feminine details. Her one must-have accessory is always confidence!
“I often find it’s just the
confidence that makes you sexy, not what your body looks like.
It’s how you feel about yourself that makes you .”

Summer’s Style Star is Madeline Jones, a woman recognized as a style and business leader in the plus size model category. She’s also known to her friends as the go-to style star.
“Maddy’s Magic is the inspiration she gives to the plus size category, particularly to plus size models.” With her intuitive fashion eye, it’s no surprise that two of her ‘besties’ wanted her to do makeovers on them with very different purposes in mind.

BUSINESS Paris loves her more wild hair look, but was surprised at how great the smooth hair looked with the right makeup. No fear of corporate cookie cutter, Maddy kept Paris’ creative side with this chic pattern with slimming black side panels. The soft mint top with lace can go under a simple black blazer for hard core corporate, and looks fabulous on its own with black pants and heels.

fast& fabulous Summer isn’t just a season, it’s a feeling. We’re lighter and happier, but with some major skin and hair challenges. Here’s the summer stuff to thrive, not just survive, the most fun season of the year! Most important beauty tip— sunblock! Don’t leave home without it. NAIL IT
HAIR TO STAY
Neon nails give your hands the illusion of a golden glow and Illamasqua Nail Varnish ($19) is a crazy splurge, but worth every penny—it’s one coat for a color-popping shade in half the dry time. China Glaze neon with nail hardeners ($7) really lasts. If you get your nails done, bring your own polish so you can do touch-ups to make it last longer.
Summer hair needs some easy tricks. Lather up with clarifying shampoo once a week to get rid of summer ‘stuff’ from beach to soot. Giovanni 50:50 Balanced Hydrating-Clarifying Shampoo ($7). Instead of that “effortless” bun that takes you 30 minutes to master, catch a few extra zzz’s and spritz some ocean air in your hair for flawless salty waves fresh off the beach and into the boardroom. Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray ($15).
LIGHTER LOOK As our clothes get lighter, so should our makeup. Beauty Balm (street name: bb cream) is foundation’s easy-going, younger sister. Not only does it colormatch to flawlessly blend in with your skin, this one does double duty with SPF. Garnier Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream SPF 15, ($10).
AVOID FLUTTER CLUTTER You found the perfect volumizing mascara. Keep your cult-classic, but layer it with a waterproof version on top to survive the heat. Covergirl Full Lash Bloom Waterproof Mascara ($8). Want a great summer look, even without makeup? Splurge with professional lash extensions or try Revlon False Eyelashes Intensifeye ($6.50)—they come with their own adhesive that’s like lashes with training wheels.
34 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
HOW-TO FIX FOR FRIZZIES Use sulfate-free shampoo and a generous amount of conditioner (not on roots), add Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Smooth Frizz Control ($7) and dry naturally, if possible. For thin hair: Spray brush with anti-frizz spray. John Frieda Frizz-Ease ($10).
get glowing SKIN DEEP
We’ve all seen them...those women who have perfect makeup and hair, but somehow go out with orange legs! The toughest thing in summer is getting a natural tan without the sun, but the products and our skills have gotten better.
Instead of fighting dry skin, you have to avoid clogged pores and oil. Scrubs and masks were made for summer, especially when you want your skin to look young and fresh with less makeup.Two to try: RoC Daily Resurfacing Disks for Skin ($10) and Boots No7 Total Renewal Micro-Dermabrasion Exfoliator ($18).
BEST TANNERS: Fake a professional airbrush tan with L’Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze ProPerfect Airbrush Self-Tanning Mist ($9). Equipped with a unique 360 degree nozzle, this spray is foolproof—hop in the tub, hold 6-12” from your body and mist in an even up-anddown motion. Start with one light layer and gradually add over time.
SELF-TANNING FOR THE FACE? Really tough to get right. Jergens Natural Glow Face Daily Moisturizer ($9) is a SPF 20 formula that protects your skin, can be applied under daily makeup and allows you to slowly build color until you reach your desired shade. Bronzing powder on the forehead, cheeks and nose gives a great natural look and Physicians Formula Matchmaker gets the highest points. Want a quick pick-me-up makeup? Nyx Born to Glow Liquid Illuminator ($7) gives a temporary (yet convincing!) fresh off the beach bronzed glow.
LIP LUSTRE Sexy summer lips are your best beauty asset. Once a week, gently exfoliate with e.l.f Lip Exfoliator ($3) to remove dry chapped skin with a sugary sweet, smoothing sensation. Next, prime with any of the Carmex lip balms to create a smooth base ($1.50). Lastly, plump up with Rimmel Stay Glossy 3D Lipgloss ($5) for a glossy, color-popping pout that lasts up to 6 hours!
DIY TAN NIN
FINISHING TOUCH It’s really hard to look fresh in the heat, so Urban Decay’s “All-Nighter” spray is a musthave for any beauty wardrobe. A few sprays in the AM will seamlessly seal in your makeup. And it’s completely sweatproof—leaving you touch-up free from country club to night club. Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray ($14).

wiggy-esque, doe-eyed lashes dominated the catwalk. Even if yours are on the short, stubby side, the right products and expert advice can help you have mile high, get-noticed lashes of your own. If yours are too far and few between— aka non-existent— for mascara to make much of a difference or you’re looking for some extra va va voom, faux lashes, extensions or topical treatments will do the trick. Before mascara, apply dark brown or black waterproof eyeliner to the inside of your upper eyelid (waterline) to make it look like you have loads more lashes than you actually do.

or a timeless look that’s just as sexy today as when it first debuted, embrace the cat eye. This feline flick has been worn by Hollywood royalty from Audrey Hepburn to Angelina Jolie, plus it’s a look that’s universally flattering and easy to tailor to the look you want. Benefits of wearing winged liner? Your eyes will look bigger, brighter and sexier. Win, win, win! To pull off this bold eye, keep the rest of your makeup as clean as possible. All you need is a concealer and tinted moisturizer or foundation, a healthy glow with a touch of blush, and a tinted lip balm or gloss for moisture and a hint of color. Metallic gold, purple shades and pastels are cuttingedge color options for the cat eye, but choose basic black for a more traditional finish. Easy-to-use options are extra-creamy pencils and marker-like liners but also get great results with cake and gel liners applied with a thin brush.

Fighting Fair 1 LIKE ANY OTHER FIGHT (oops, discussion), an emotional conflict works best when you know what you’re each capable of and there are a set of ‘rules’. UNLIKE OTHER FIGHTS where you generally go for the other person’s weakness, the goal here is to really have a fair fight, meaning you try to build the person up instead of tearing them down. We’ve incorporated some information from a great study by The University of Texas at Austin for the how-to’s to get to a fair and hopefully productive fight.
66 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
BE AWARE OF YOUR FIGHT STYLE.
Do you… Avoid conflict at all costs? Feel that any criticism or disagreement is an attack on you? Hit “below the belt” and regret it later? Feel out of control when conflict arises? Withdraw and become silent when you’re angry? Store up complaints from the distant past? Most of us have done one or more of these things, but it’s time to be as productive in your discussions as you are in everything else you do. If handled appropriately, conflict can actually strengthen relationships and improve our understanding of each other and of ourselves.
2
THE GROUND RULES Remember the expression “choose your battles carefully”? If this is something that’s worth the ‘battle’, keep in mind that the goal is discussion, not argument.
Choosing when to have the discussion is the most important determinant to success, so choose a time that’s good for both of you. You want to both be a little relaxed, but not tired. Remain calm and try not to overreact to difficult situations. Speak, don’t Act. You want to express your feelings in words, not actions, so when you start feeling too angry or upset, take a “time out” and do something to help yourself feel calm: a walk, deep breathing, play with the dog— whatever works for you. Try to be clear and concise. Being specific and brief about what’s bothering you will keep him listening. Think short attention span and avoid the long version. Only one issue at a time. Don’t introduce other topics until each one is fully discussed. No hitting below the belt. Attacking areas of personal sensitivity creates an atmosphere of distrust, anger, and vulnerability. Avoid accusations. Accusations cause others to focus on defending themselves rather than on understanding you. Instead, talk about how someone’s actions made you feel.
“Oh, so you think I’m cute when I’m angry? Get ready, I’m about to be gorgeous!”
3
THE FIGHT Think win-win, not just win. The idea is to come to a resolution that you’re both happy with...(Note: great makeup sex comes from win-win)!
Hardest part is figuring out what’s really bothering you. Don’t accept the ‘obvious’…it could be something your brother did when you were eight. What result would make you happy? Assuming you’re not getting the diamond necklace, is it an apology, a promise to not do it again, or something else? Try “I” instead of “you”…”I feel badly when” works much better than “you hurt my feelings”. Finish your point and ask the other person to share his or her opinion. DO NOT INTERRUPT. Try to see the problem through his or her eyes so that the viewpoint makes sense to you even if you can’t agree with it.
Try not to generalize. Avoid words like “never” or “always.” Such generalizations are usually inaccurate and will heighten tensions.
Each of you should suggest possible solutions and then discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each proposal.
Don’t store up issues. Storing up lots of hurt feelings over time is not productive. Try to deal with problems as they arise.
Be ready to compromise. Having only one option will make it difficult to resolve the concern. When you reach an agreement you can both be okay with, celebrate! If you can’t come to a solution, decide to both think about it some more and revisit at a later time.
Don’t turn off. When one person stops responding, the other becomes frustrated and angry. If either of you starts shutting down, suggest a break.
WHEN NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK You’ve tried fighting fair, but it’s just not working. Communication has broken down, but you still really want to get back on the right track. It might be time to talk to a professional. Go to couple’s counseling with
a marriage counselor or trained mediator. Have a spouse who won’t go? Go by yourself and see if you’re looking at the situation correctly. Just speaking to someone can work wonders to getting to a better place in your relationship.

It’s Time for that great American pastime... when he’s watching the game and you’re watching the players!
After a year of endless eye-candy
THE “SYMPATHY PLAY”.
for him, summer brings you the cutest butts
His team loses or his favorite player makes a game- losing mistake. You swoop in with a major dose of consolation in the form of either (a) shared anger… “Are you kidding me, what an idiot” or (b) quietude served with a beer and chips. You know the guy, you choose the play. Note, ask the guy to explain the play to you later (do not ask right after the play!). And serving really crunchy food or anything he can gnaw on is particularly effective because it’s very primal, a great anger reducer (check our ribs recipe in this issue).

Time to Raise Confident
Girls who will become Empowered Women content in their lives. But how do we stop our own tough self-judgments, especially when it comes to our bodies? If we don’t, we will subtly pass on those judgments to our daughters, even if we think we are being really careful. And it’s never too late…the ways to empower our daughters (our friends and ourselves) never stop being effective.
“HOW TO” EMPOWER AND SUPPORT YOUR DAUGHTER Start by understanding that your daughter will probably not want to discuss body image and other issues with you, so get a little creative. Suggest that the ‘moms’ were talking and really need some help understanding what their kids are thinking. Mention how middle and high school were for you and don’t make it seem oh-so-fabulous, because it probably wasn’t all that perfect.
Model Behavior
T
his is our chance as mothers, grandmothers and influencers to help empower our daughters, friends, and all girls and women. A recent study by P&G confirmed that, “An estimated 50 million girls enter puberty every year and this is a critical life stage where girls develop self-esteem and build up confidence”. When I taught sixth grade, I started every year with strong and confident young girls, then slowly saw the socialization impact that either boosted or eroded that confidence based on peer acceptance. Three facts are clear: 1. Girls starting puberty (4th-8th grade) are at higher risk for: Low Self-Esteem and Poor Body Image 2. Factors contributing to low self-esteem are: Obesity, Peer Perceptions, The Media 3. Low self-esteem is related to: Depression, Poor Academic Achievement, Negative Body Image
Mothers are the greatest influence in building confidence and empowerment that will make our daughters both happy and
Avoid the catwalk and catty talk. In my house, ‘fat’ was the other “f ” word that my daughter wasn’t allowed to say. Stay away from discussing your own or anyone else’s weight in a negative way, and avoid saying you need to go on a diet. Our daughters are smart and if you criticize yourself, they infer you are critical of the same thing in them.
Get Real Talk about how the media perpetuates the ridiculous ‘perfection’ in body type, the clear lack of diversity, and discuss how this makes your daughter feel. Victoria’s Secret had to change its ad campaign entitled “The Perfect Body” after a backlash by people in Britain...yay!
Don’t Underestimate You might be really surprised at how your daughter comprehends more abstract concepts. For example, bullying can be blatant or subtle, and you should be discussing both concepts. Discuss friends who seem fine but can be subtley bullying, especially online. And look at your own friends… are they supportive or toxic?
FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015 71
Can We Talk? Talk about what a role-model is to your daughter: Who is her role model? Why? What characteristics are important? Discuss having Facebook pages, who their friends are, what information they share. Talk about diverse body types, and how weight alone isn’t a valid indicator of health. Promote size acceptance, talk about judgments and stigma placed on people based only on their “looks”. And be honest…what struggles did you have when you were young? Still have? If you’re self-critical about appearance related issues, ask your daughter’s help in ‘editing’ you. Educate yourself while you’re educating her.
was on the cross-country running team and she was consistently last, but won most improved runner and best team spirit. Make sure your daughter’s teams celebrate inspirational as well as performance awards. In academics, going from a “C” to a “B-” is huge. It’s all about the performance so cheer your daughter on! Communicate love, acceptance and support for all she will go through in the coming years. Please don’t say ‘this should be the best time in your life’. It isn’t and you will make your daughter feel alone if you don’t acknowledge that. Middle school and high school can be truly torturous!
Take the Emotional Training Wheels Off Not My Daughter Most of us can’t process that our little darling could have mental health issues like eating disorders, mood disorders or self-harm. Start discussing these issues and you’ll be surprised how much your daughter will learn about these from school. Reach out for information, resources, and signs sooner, rather than later. What’s called ‘disordered eating’ is prevalent in our society, so don’t assume anorexia and bulimia are the only ones. Often girls will be in “normal” weight range, and will be able to hide all behaviors including only eating a narrow group of foods, another common behavior. Check out The National Eating Disorder Association website for an enlightening list.
Compliments Everybody not only likes them, we all really need them. Compliment your daughter’s strengths, especially those unrelated to body image, but be realistic. My daughter 72 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
Our natural inclination is to try to ‘fix’ things…the helicopter parent who’s always hovering to make things better. It’s like the old fishing adage, so give your daughter the fishing pole instead of the fish. Empower your daughter to discuss struggles, and problem solve; show her you believe she has the ability to handle her life; discuss ways to approach struggles, and ask what you can do to help support her through the process. This is especially important if there is something distinctive about your daughter that will draw attention. Early developers are particularly prone. It’s much easier to recognize than you might think. Is your daughter acting withdrawn, having dramatic mood changes, changing her eating habits, how she dresses, changing friends etc. Remember that all of the above are normal to a degree…it’s when it seems extreme that you should start having a conversation and work on how to express, process, and move through such feelings and changes.
THINK BMS INSTEAD OF BMI Society is obsessed with weight, but we should be focusing on health that includes Body, Mind and Spirit. Discuss fitness and exercise as an element of feeling good about ourselves. Help your daughter try different sports and activities and then support her choices. It might be hip hop classes or maybe one of the 10 following activities:
1. There are so many opportunities for young girls to better their communities and it’s a great mother/daughter time. Be ready to help put in the work, from yard sales to raising money, driving your kids to joining in and volunteering too.
2. As an added benefit, young girls, especially in high school, are building their resumes for college and volunteer activities are invaluable. Homeless Shelters and Food Banks welcome volunteers and have programs including preparing or distributing meals (especially around the holidays) or helping organize a food drive to stock the pantry.
3. The Guideposts Sweater Project can be done at home, even while your daughter is glued to the TV. They knit sweaters that are then sent to needy children around the world.
4. Ronald McDonald Houses provide a low-cost “home-away-fromhome” for parents and children to stay during medical treatment. Volunteers help prepare meals and talk to families.
5. Special Olympics International has a wide variety of volunteer activities, including sports training, fund raising, administrative help, competition planning and staffing, etc.
6. Habitat for Humanity builds houses in local communities. Volunteers not only help others, but can learn a great deal about building houses by getting involved. Kids as young as 5 can help.
7. Literacy volunteers act as tutors who help illiterate children and adults learn how to read.
8. Senior Citizens Centers offer volunteer programs to provide friendship and community activities to senior citizens.
9. Animal Shelters usually need volunteers to help take care of animals, keep facilities clean and work with the public.
10. American Red Cross helps people in emergencies, especially in disasters like Katrina. After the tsunami, my daughter and a few friends held a yard sale and raised thousands of dollars for ARC – they even ended up in the local paper. NOTE: Most cities and towns offer a wide range of volunteer opportunities so call around to see what might be available, and don’t be discouraged if it takes awhile to break through the bureaucracy.
GIRLS, INC. Watch for the great commercials from these pros in the confidence building business. Girls Inc. is a nonprofit organization which serves 140,000 girls ages 6-18 annually, inspiring all girls to be strong and smart with life-changing experiences and real solutions to the unique issues girls face. Major programs address math and science education, pregnancy and drug abuse prevention, media literacy, economic literacy, adolescent health, violence prevention, and sports participation, providing a weekly average of 30 hours of after-school, weekend and summer activities. Programs can be offered anywhere girls are found, including Girls Inc. centers, schools, churches, community centers and housing projects. They also have a “Girls Bill of Rights” which really says it all.

74 FULLBEAUTY I SUMMER 2015
SOUL FOOD PEPPER-LICIOUS Eating peppers (any color) at least two to four times per week is linked to significantly lowered risk of developing Parkinson’s disease.
LIGHTEN UP Taking an antihistamine before bed can prevent dark under-eye circles in the morning (but only use it as an emergency beauty treatment)!
Sweet Victory Adults who eat a little chocolate five times a week are thinner than those who eat it less frequently.
GILLIGAN’S ISLAND? Ginger helps reduce cramps, alleviate nausea and promote digestion...great for boating.
Kissing improves skin, prevents tooth decay and helps circulation. A passionate French kiss uses 34 facial muscles and just one minute of kissing burns about 26 calories! Kiss for an hour and that’s 1,560 calories! Def time for a makeout session!!!
HUG IT OUT People need at least 8 hugs a day to have a fulfilling life (we can get by with 4). Hugs instantly boost oxytocin levels, which can alleviate feelings of loneliness, isolation, and anger. Good news—hugging our pets counts (sorry, stuffed animals only work for kids).
GOOD NIGHT Tart cherries or tart cherry juice has melatonin, a hormone that helps you sleep. And a slice of whole wheat bread can raise brain levels of tryptophan, which can make you sleepy.
BE A KISS UP
SAGE ADVICE The smell of sage can reduce sadness and anxiety...might be why they burn sage when ‘cleansing a house of negativity’, called the air of smudging.
HELPER’S HIGH Countless studies show that helping others boosts levels of happiness producing brain chemicals, providing a powerful rush of emotional coziness known as “helper’s high”.

bragging rites Every state claims it has the best barbecue, but we’ve narrowed it to 10 states that really have a right to brag.
People can’t even agree how BBQ started, with some saying Caribbean, others, Mongolian, Southern, Japanese, and the list goes on. The biggest debate you will find among BBQ purists is if you make the mistake of bringing together a Texan and a Southerner. In Texas, Barbecue means Beef, particularly Brisket. In the South, Barbecue means Pork (typically shoulder roasts and Boston butts). Everyone’s got a favorite BBQ place and even if you try to go by the ratings, you’ll end up with over 100 BBQ restaurants in America that are voted as someone’s top 10. Let’s just say it’s easier to pick the top 10 BBQ states, and even that will get pretty ‘sticky’ if you talk to the locals.

Alabama Alabamans are almost as passionate about their barbecue as they are about their football teams, and let’s just say that’s just short of maniacal. Big Bob Gibson BBQ in Decatur gets the highest points, followed by Big D’s Butts ‘N Stuff in Monroeville.
California It’s not all salads and sunshine, there’s some real cowboy-style slow cooking out west. Beachwood BBQ & Brewing in Long Beach, Everett & Jones BBQ in Oakland, and Bludso’s BBQ in Compton are all worth a detour from the fusion fare.
Georgia This is pit cooking with a uniquely Georgian twist by the use of pecan fruitwood in the prep. Fox Bros BBQ in Atlanta and Wiley’s in Savannah.
Illinois With its past as a meatpacking capital, Chicago has seen something of a barbecue boom. No, it doesn’t have that cool Southern thing, but a few places are really attracting BBQ street cred. Chicago Q, Honky Tonk and Smoque BBQ are winners.
Missouri Known for thick, sweet sauce with lots of molasses and mahogany in color. Arthur Bryant’s BBQ in Kansas City is the definite ‘winner’, called “the best restaurant in the world” by The New Yorker (not known as a BBQ crowd). Yet, there are those who swear Bogart’s Smokehouse and Pappy’s Smokehouse in St. Louis are the official Missouri BBQ haunts.

New York Ask a Southerner and they’ll say NYC is all high falutin’ sushi bars, but probably thanks in part to the faddish paleo diet, there’s some serious BBQ happening there. Fette Sau (ok, fancy for ‘fat pig’) is smokin’, Danny Meyer’s Blue Smoke (yes, of course NY has a celeb chef of BBQ) is considered true south, and Mighty Quinn’s really gets the juices flowing.
North Carolina Vinegar-based sauces are big, and pork is cooked low and slow—for 16 hours or more. Allen & Son in Chapel Hill has large brick pits out back and Skylight Inn in Ayden earns Southern Living’s high praises for its whole-hog approach.
South Carolina Mustard-based barbecue sauces are popular but, then again, there’s the pitmasters who swear by tomato and vinegar. For the mustard-based, Hite’s Bar-B-Que in West Columbia and Melvin’s Charleston are definite destinations. Go red, go to Sweatman’s in Holly Hill.
Tennessee Memphis’s claim to fame (other than Elvis) is its ribs, which you get “wet,” (lots of sauce) or “dry,” (spicy salt rub). Nashville is now a major challenger for BBQ bragging rights, so the fight just got local! The Rendezvous in Memphis boasts, “Not since Adam has a rib been this famous.” Go to Nashville and you’ll smell the hickory smoke at Hog Heaven from blocks away.
Texas Hands down, Franklin BBQ Austin Tx has been called “barbecue nirvana” by Serious Eats for its famously tender brisket piled high on wax paper, and Gayot rates it in the top 10 in the country. If you saw the movie “Chef”, this is where they went for BBQ. If you’re in Austin, want great bbq, but don’t want to wait in line at Franklin’s, John Mueller Meat Co. and Stubb’s, are great.

Cruise Control IT’S NOT YOUR MOTHER’S CRUISE Okay, here’s the truth. I didn’t like cruises. I went on two different cruises almost twenty years ago and I just wasn’t a fan of what I felt was a confined space and too many people. My sister-in-law (also a close friend) talked me into going on a Celebrity Cruise where the winners of previous seasons of the show “Top Chef” give cooking classes and demonstrations on-board. Since I love to learn new things about cooking and my sister-in-law swore I would have fun, I gave it a shot. I was so pleasantly surprised that I am planning another cruise! No more crowding, no more tight spaces. No more waiting on long buffet lines… there were 8 restaurants on board and the food was spectacular. I even had a room with a little patio, not just a porthole. And yes, I got to meet so many great people and took several cooking classes with the TV chefs…I had a blast! I got off the boat in Puerto Rico, St. Martin, and St. Thomas and went to incredible small, local restaurants and great shopping at street fairs.

There was even a Canyon Ranch spa on board (it’s a famous spa in Tucson AZ and Lenox MA) and I had a massage (discounted rates if the boat is in port). I felt like a celebrity on a Celebrity Cruise. HIGHLIGHTS: The week was non-stop action but my favorite off-ship trips were: ST. MARTIN: On the French side, a restaurant called Belle Epoque, where I had the best escargot…still obsessing over but couldn’t get the recipe. I also bought gorgeous French table linens at a street fair at about ½ of US prices. PUERTO RICO: Cutest bar and restaurant with great fish tacos and this drink called “Parrot Passion”, made with frozen citrus mix of rum, triple sec, passion fruit and orange! Let’s say I was really happy I could just walk back to the boat!
CULINARY CUES The ship had a restaurant called “Qsine”, where everything was served with innovative drama. Since I am a far better table setter/ server than I am a cook, I tried these ideas as soon as I got home.
THE “TOP CHEF” We had several Top Chef contestants on board, including fan favorites Tiffany “Don’’t Mess With Texas” Derry and Casey Thompson. We spent the most time with Hosea Rosenberg, winner of Season 5, and he won everyone’s hearts both on the show and on the cruise with his nononsense and approachable cooking style. As he said, he spends a lot of time ‘winging it’, and he’s not talking about chicken. Not only did he give us the scoop on lots of the backstage Top Chef drama and the realities of owning a restaurant, he was just so funny and easy going about cooking that even the novices weren’t intimidated. He now lives in Boulder, Colorado and has a spectacular new restaurant called Blackbelly, after a type of pig in the region. He also opened an affordable market for sandwiches next door, so everyone can taste his genius. We took a cooking class and Hosea taught us to make tomato soup with cilantro oil on top. It doesn’t sound that exciting, but it’s a great year round soup and the cilantro oil can be frozen and used on lots of dishes. Recipe on Top Chef’s website.
SIMPLE STARTER Buy inexpensive test tubes and stand. Serve soup in the test tubes…tomato or butternut squash look prettiest. You can also serve the soup in little expresso cups. Looks and tastes delicious, but isn’t too filling. ELEGANT ENDINGS Two great ideas…small silver martini shakers filled with sorbet topped with berries. Serve them with tops on and you take the top off to a gorgeous orange, raspberry, or lemon sorbet! Use a box with real grass or just buy a box with plastic grass (HomeGoods has them). Buy long wooden sticks (in supermarket) and chocolate covered marshmallows to put on ends of sticks, sticking up from the grass. You can also do it with strawberries or blueberries and it looks like flowers in a garden. Kids just love this!
