Cameron Diaz has been full of smiles these days, thanks to her new beau Paul Sculfor. But since celebrities are constantly being photographed, it's easy to make assumptions that their beaming appearance is due to that special someone. But just as people say pregnant people glow, those newly in love often really do have it written all over their face. Does this notion ring true for you? When you're truly happy, does it shine through from the inside out?

If you haven't yet heard the word, Clinique has a super-cute gimmick for the 2007 holiday season. Right now, you can customize a bottle of Happy eau de parfum ($52) with a picture of your choice.

Happy is an upbeat citrus and floral fragrance with notes of of grapefruit, boysenberry bush flower and Hawaiian wedding flower. I know a lot of women who love it (and quite a few guys who do, too). Plus, early-bird holiday shoppers will like this: door-to-door delivery only takes ten business days. I think this would be a sweet gift for someone you want to make very happy-and besides, you know it won't be returned!

If you can't tell, this little psycho has his hands on a stack of Pokemon cards. My guess is that he just scored a rare card and the following behavior is his reaction to such good fortune. Not so fortunate are the loved ones on the receiving end of this hyper-dramatic display of insanity. May I suggest hiding the sugar?

10 Tips for Happy, Healthy Feet

FitSugar — Wed, 18 Apr 2007 03:00:00 PDT

Sandal season is here for many of us (and approaching rapidly for the rest of us). If your feet are anything like mine, they're not quite ready to see the light of day.

Podiatrists who are part of the UCLA Medical Group have these 10 tips to maintain healthy, happy feet this spring:

Inspect your feet regularly and pay attention to changes in color, texture or appearance.
Maintain good foot hygiene, including washing and drying between the toes.
Hydrate the skin. ~~Southern California~~ Dry weather and open shoes can cause rapid loss of moisture from the skin and may result in cracking or the formation of fissures. It is helpful to replace the moisture content by using lotions or creams on a regular basis.
Buy proper-size shoes. You may not wear the same size in shoes made by different manufacturers. Purchase new shoes late in the day, when feet tend to be at their largest. Always buy the shoes that feel the best.
Don't ignore foot pain. Symptoms that increase or do not resolve within a reasonable period of time need to be evaluated by your podiatric physician.
Cut toenails straight across. Never cut into the corner this could cause an ingrown toenail. Gently file away sharp corners or rough edges with an emery board.
Exercise. Walking is a great way to keep weight under control and is an excellent conditioner for the feet. Be sure to wear appropriate athletic shoes when exercising.
Alternate your shoes each day. Since the feet have sweat glands, your shoes will absorb moisture from your feet, so it is important to allow your shoes to dry out completely.
Avoid walking barefoot to help protect your feet from injury and infection.
Put sunblock on your feet while wearing sandals during the day to avoid sunburn.

Fit's Tip: Think about pampering your feet every once in a while. Your feet carry you around all day, so a nice soak in a foot bath with a bit of peppermint oil will keep them even happier.

Happy Hour: Jalisco Flower

Susannah Chen — Fri, 25 May 2012 13:18:53 PDT

There's no better hair of the dog after a long night out than brunch filled with bottomless mimosas. But if you've grown weary of that mundane combination of orange juice and bubbly, switch up your drinking routine with another Champagne cocktail that's twice as exciting to sip, but just about as easy to prepare.

The Jalisco Flower is a combination of ruby red grapefruit juice and sparkling wine - with a bit of tequila and St-Germain added in to throw your taste buds for a loop. Tart tequila pairs well with the sweet-sour grapefruit juice, while the elderflower liqueur adds complex floral notes and softens the spirit's aggressiveness.

Robert Pattinson Looks Dashing For His Cosmopolis Premiere

Katie Henry — Fri, 25 May 2012 12:26:30 PDT

All eyes were on Robert Pattinson as he stepped out onto the red carpet at tonight's Cannes Film Festival premiere of his David Cronenberg-directed thriller, Cosmopolis. Rob kicked off his day at a casual photocall for the film, but for tonight's formal affair he suited up in a tuxedo. He was joined on the carpet by costars Sarah Gadon and Juliette Binoche, however, he was just a few feet away from his number one lady, Kristen Stewart, who posed for photos with Tom Sturridge. Rob showed his support for Kristen and Tom's feature, On the Road, at a screening earlier in the week and Kristen and Tom seemed happy to do the same for Rob. Early reviews of Cosmopolis have been tough on the storyline, however, Rob's fans will be able to make their own judgements when the film hits theaters later this year.
