Jenkins Jellies by Hillary Danner
By Melissa Stephans
Since its inception, I’ve grown to love Gwyneth Paltrow’s lifestyle site GOOP. The Oscar winner’s celebrity gives her access to the best and most unique food, beauty, and fashion from across the globe; so when she introduces products of any sort, I take note. Recently, in a newsletter about artisanal products, the Oscar-winning actress featured her cousin Hillary Danner’s line of homemade goodies, Jenkins Jellies.
Body Cleanse Tips from Gwyneth Paltrow
Except for religious purposes, I’ve never put much faith in fasts or cleanses. They are unhealthy and unnatural to the body, which is built to cleanse itself automatically. But last year around this time, as I sat in a coma from the holiday food force fed to me (okay—by me), I stumbled upon a web site praising the perks of a cleanse.
There were two reasons why I liked this site: First, because the ingredients chosen for the “cleanse” included only fresh fruits, vegetables, juices, etc. There were no cayenne water or cabbage soup gimmicks presented, thankfully. The recipes looked tasty, yet simple enough so that my body could absorb nutrients without overworking itself, as it had for the holidays. Secondly, and much more shamefully, I was drawn to this site because its creator is Gwyneth Paltrow.
Umm, can we talk about Gwyneth Paltrow’s oily legs for a sec?

Gwyneth Paltrow on 'The Tonight Show' with Conan O'Brien, 6/14/09
So, I actually missed this episode of The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, but had to look it up once a friend asked me if I knew what was up with Gwyneth Paltrow’s super shiny legs.
I was really confused because I don’t think I’ve ever really heard about that kind of beauty faux pas. But sure enough, from the knees down, Paltrow’s legs look like they were coated with Crisco. Looks like someone must have noticed this too on the normally elegantly primped actress, since the shine was clearly toned down during the second segment of the show.
