She is the best mixture of personality, charisma, beauty and modesty.
I admire her so much.
Once she is on screen, you cannot look away, she captures you immediately, that's charisma, it is more important than beauty IMO. She has plenty of charisma, it' so rare in actors today...

Sophia Loren's Celebrity Beauty Secrets

Sophia Loren is known as an ageless,exotic Italian beauty. When she first came on the celebrity scene in the fifties and sixties, she was known for her thick dark hair and exotic brown cat-eyes. Sophia has even written a beauty advice book called Woman and Beauty, which is avaliable in Amazon.com. Who better write such a book than a woman that is still beautiful in her seventies! She must be doing something right! Sophia explains that in Italian culture women can be considered beautiful no matter what age they are if they take care of themselves. She offers her advice on discipline, makeup, skin, hair, fashion, style, eating healthy and exercising.
Sophia believes that preserving your looks has a lot to do with what you eat.

Sophia is a big fan of olive oil. While Sophia is sure to get two tablespoons of olive oil into her Mediterranean diet each day, she also rubs a small amount of olive oil into her skin to keep it moisturized. She attributes her youthful look to this ritual. (However if you have sensitive or acne prone skin this is probably not a good idea). Olive oil is the healthiest of all cooking oils and the best "fat" to fit into your food pyramid. According to the Official Sophia Loren
Site (Sophialoren.com), Sophia's beauty secret is a love of life, spaghetti, and the occasional bath in virgin olive oil!

Sophia also believes that women can enhance their beauty with colorful jewelry. Sophia is also extremely humble about her looks. She has said that beauty is in they eye of the beholder and that she considers her not beautiful in the classical definition. She describes her face as "interesting" instead. Sophia is also a big proponent of inner beauty, and has said that attitude and charm can make anyone beautiful.

Sophia has also revealed a celebrity style secret. She says, "The cut and the tailoring of a Giorgio Armani suit is mysteriously elegant-the formula can't be defined. It is just beautful and simply Armani."

Sophia is famous for her eyewear. She sports very flattering, sophisticated styles. She is often seen in oversized and cat-eyed varieties. She also haves her own line of both eyeglasses (avaliable at Framesdirect.com) and sunglasses (avaliable at Eyefine.com.)"

Does anyone here have the Women & Beauty book that I was writing in the above post? It seems really hard to get a hold of where I live. If yes can anyone please write down here what she says makeup, skin, hair, fashion, style, fashion, exersising and eating healthy. I would appcreciate it a lot.
