TV Tonight: "Anchorwoman"

BuzzSugar — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 13:32:16 PDT

If you've been watching any Fox programming these days, you've almost certainly seen promos for "Anchorwoman," a fish-out-of-water story about a bikini model who gets recruited to be a news anchor in a Texas town. The show premieres with a special one-hour episode tonight at 8 p.m. (regular half-hour episodes start next week), and the jury's still out on whether it will be appealingly trashy or just too stupid to watch.

Here's the premise: KYTX, a CBS affiliate (so why is the show on Fox?) in Tyler, Texas, is so low-rated that its news director will do anything to boost the station's profile, including having Stormy the Weather Dog show up in every forecast. So it wasn't such a leap for him to hire Lauren Jones, a former Barker's Beauty and WWE Diva, to read the news. Exactly how much of this "comedy/reality hybrid" is scripted isn't clear, though I can't imagine that things like Jones showing up to work in a plunging leopard-print top happened completely by chance.

One thing's for sure: the journalism community in Tyler isn't too thrilled about having their profession so openly mocked. But can Jones actually do the anchor's job? I guess we're supposed to watch and find out. To see a clip,

Feelin' Blue: When to Use a Cool-Toned Concealer

BellaSugar — Mon, 07 May 2012 03:35:00 PDT

You can try to grasp the purpose of each and every shade of color-correcting concealer on the market until you're blue in the face. But why do that to yourself? Speaking of blue, it turns out the icy hue doesn't have to leave you looking like an extra on The Smurfs. So what can blue do for you? Let's first look to the color wheel for guidance. Oh color wheel, tell us your magic ways.

Not only does blue add radiance to the complexion, but it also assists in reducing the appearance of minor imperfections. And if you have deeper skin tones, blue might be your cure to quelling under-eye circles. Another cool tip is that blue, the opposite of orange, can also help to neutralize overly Oompa Loompa-esque pigments caused from self-tanners.

In addition, purple, lilac, and mauve shades (which are somewhat close to the blue color family) can neutralize sallow, yellow tones. Hues of purple also can brighten olive skin and balance out yellowish blemishes on most skin tones. Try: Make Up For Ever's HD Microperfecting Primer in Blue or Mauve ($34), Givenchy's Mister Mat Mattifying Foundation Primer ($33), or Signature Club A by Adrienne's Anchorwoman Blue Dark Circle Cover ($16).
