Women's Health's Annual Beauty Award Winners Named

Have we previously discussed my love of Women's Health? If not, let's get to it. Women's Health is hands down one of the smartest pubs on newsstands today and every issue (no, really...every issue) is chock full of great tips and tricks to help you live a healthier, happier life. No Cosmopolitan-style idiocy here (oops, did I really type that?)

The newest issue of the mag - July/August 2008 - hit newsstands last month and it focuses on a topic close to our hearts. Yes, that's right...BEAUTY! Women's Health's very competent beauty team, including Beauty Editor Liesa Goins and Assistant Beauty Editor Alexis Farah narrowed down a field of literally HUNDREDS of beauty products to bring only the best to readers. Only, they didn't decide who the best were arbitrarily...no, they turned to leading beauty experts to help narrow down the field and select winners.
