About the 'no-makeup' makeup trend
Women everywhere from housewives to Hollywood stars are embracing a new trend that calls for less makeup and playing up natural features. It doesn't mean no makeup, but beauty products are used subtly to get a natural and glowing look.
No-makeup celebs such as Alicia Keys and Mile Kunis are getting lots of attention. Keys, 35, declared this year that she didn't want to "cover up" any more, and proved her commitment by showing up on the red carpet for the BET Awards last month without makeup.

FDA bans sale of most antibacterial soaps
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is targeting 19 ingredients found in soaps and body washes, saying they could do more harm than good.
Companies will no longer be able to market antibacterial washes with these ingredients because manufacturers did not demonstrate that the ingredients are both safe for long-term daily use and more effective than plain soap and water in preventing illness and the spread of certain infections. Some manufacturers have already started removing these ingredients from their products.
