Southern Women Know Beauty!

Don’t you think? As a born and raised Southerner (originally from Knoxville, Tennessee – now in College Station, TX), I know there is something extra special about southern women. They have a view on beauty and style that is different than anyone else. And now we have a magazine of our very own! This is Southern Beauty magazine, and I can’t wait to get my hands on it!

Here is a bit about the mag and its preview issue:

Southern Beauty is delivered in a reader-friendly format that is stylish, yet inviting— hallmark attributes of a true “Southern beauty.” Each issue will deconstruct Southern charm by dividing it into its four most essential components: face, hair, body and soul, with regular sections devoted to the care and maintenance of each.

Highlights of the preview issue include:

FACE: Clarins celebrity makeup artist Nick Barose shares tips on how to put your best face forward in under five minutes; eye-opening solutions to combat premature aging; a top ten list for achieving healthy skin; and real beauty tips for real women of all ages.

BODY: Southern Beauty’s own spa treatment expert, known simply as “Spa Girl,” reports on the ultimate pampering experiences guaranteed to make readers relax and “listen to their bodies;” and bath and shower must-haves for when the closest you can get to a spa day is a few minutes in your tub.

SOUL: Yoga is demystified, revealing the very real mind, body and soul benefits hiding behind all the hype; age is embraced; and in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, two survivors share their inspirational stories of hope, recovery and higher-callings.

HAIR: Miracle creams capable of banishing “bad hair days” for good; hairsprays guaranteed not to wilt under the most humid Southern conditions; and a modern twist on the vintage updo.

In addition, Southern Beauty’s team of beauty insiders share the products they can’t live without and renowned makeup artist Bobbi Brown lends her expert advice on looking great in less time. And, finally, because no Southern debutante would dream of making her debut without her pearls on, Southern Beauty’s last page, entitled “Pearls of Wisdom,” leaves readers with just that.

The issue is not available on newstands, but the holiday issue will be out soon at Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Borders, Waldenbooks and Hastings. The official launch of the magazine is the March issue and it will be available March 18 on newstands nationwide! Best bet? Subscribe today, like I have, at http://www.southernbeautymagazine.com!
