Quick... What color comes to mind when you think about bubble gum, cotton candy and watermelon margaritas? Five, four, three, two, one--pink!

Beautynistas predict that eye-popping, pretty-in-pink colors will be this summer's hottest trend. In fact, when celebs wanna turn heads on the red carpet, they think pink. Everyone from Gywneth Paltrow to Nicki Minaj to Lea Michele has made style statements with this sassy shade to create show-stopping hair, gowns, nails and makeup.

Anne Hathaway kick-started a couture craze when she floated down the aisle in a pink-dipped tulle Valentino gown on her wedding day last September. Jessica Biel then took the trend to the next level when she tied the knot with Justin Timberlake in a whimsical petal pink princess gown last October.

The color now dominates cosmetics counters, so it's an ideal opportunity to add a pop of pink to your summer look. Check out the latest luscious blushes, eyeshadows, glosses and lipsticks. You'll be tickled pink with the results.

Anne Hathaway choose a pink-dipped Valentino tulle gown on her wedding day to Adam Shulman last fall.

Justin Timberlake jumps for joy over his bride Jessica Biel and her custom Giambattista Valli pink wedding dress last year.

Celebrities Looking Fab at 40

Photo by Andrea Raffin

The political landscape stole national headlines in 1972. Watergate rocked Washington, and Gov. George C. Wallace of Alabama--known for physically barring black students from entering the University of Alabama in 1963--was shot and permanently paralyzed during his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination. The U.S. Supreme Court also ruled that the death penalty was unconstitutional.

Political scandals, issues and personalities have changed considerably in the last 40 years. Our views about growing older and skincare formulations have also come of age. Moisturizers, serums and exfoliating scrubs now utilize ingredients such as hyaluronic acid (the body's natural hydrator), peptides (natural skin plumping agents) and antioxidants (protective fruit extracts, vitamins and green tea extracts) to provide more smoothing and cell stimulating benefits.

In the spirit of spring renewal, we're taking a look at celebrities who turn 40 this year. Most maintain the youthful glow of women in their 20s. Although we don't know what types of treatments they use, we've compiled some of the best anti-aging products on the market for dehydrated, dull and maturing skin. They're guaranteed to renew, restructure and revitalize.
