Achieve Powerful Beauty with Bionic Beauty™
This week, public relations powerhouse Marilyn DeMartini shares her thoughts on Powerful Beauty with Bionic Beauty readers. Marilyn is owner of her PR Firm, PR Power; and specializes in marketing and relations in the powerboat racing industry. Find out more about Marilyn, her career, projects and writings at her website MarilynDeMartini.com. Talk about being a Powerful Beauty!

Powerful beauty is a well-known concept, for wasn't "Power is the best aphrodisiac" attributed to Henry Kissinger?

I find working out and eating well—creating a healthy, powerful body, are the main ingredients to creating "Powerful Beauty." Even if one is not a "classic" beauty, a woman can radiate confidence, strength and attitude and be seen as strikingly beautiful because of the power she radiates through her posture, carriage and smile. As a 54-year old PR professional (the "Power of the pen!" who works in the powerboat racing business) who works out daily, runs, practices yoga to balance the exercise and strives to maintain a youthful appearance, I am proudly and powerfully growing older and wiser. I find it flattering that people do not believe I am 50+, but I really don't care because I feel strong and beautiful—regardless of the laugh lines and the toll the sun has taken on my skin because I so enjoy the outdoors of South Florida. Am I beautiful? Perhaps not by model standards, but because I feel good about myself, I hope that I am seen as attractive because of my power.

New ways to browse Bionic Beauty

Posted: 29 Apr 2010 03:51 PM PDT

As I mentioned earlier this week, I’ve been doing some upgrades on Bionic Beauty. For those of you who (still) use Internet Explorer, you should now have full access to the drop-down navigation menu that is under my header graphic.

I also cleaned up those categories a bit- I still have a little more consolidating to do- but this should help everyone find articles by topic a bit easier.

If you’re a Bionic Beauty reader who uses Firefox, Chrome, Safari or another modern internet browser- things should look pretty much the same.

Achieve Powerful Beauty with the Bionic Beauty blog!

While I’m here with this “Site News”, I want to remind everybody about the search field in the very upper right of your screen. Simply type in what you’re looking for and hit the enter button on your keyboard.

Prefer to browse by brand? In the far right sidebar, there is a drop-down menu. Pick the brand you want, and then hit the “Go” button.

And for those moments when you just want to browse through the almost 2000 articles on Bionic Beauty, you can click on the “Surprise Me” graphic in the right sidebar. You’ll be magically whisked off to a random article! It’s a fun way to find some older stuff you might have missed!

There will be more upgrades launching soon… In the meantime, feel free to use the Contact form or comment below and let me know your thoughts, questions, or suggestions!

Stay Bionic,

Jami - author and editor of the Bionic Beauty blog
