I honestly don’t remember a time when I didn’t have to deal with acne prone skin. I know there was a time, I’ve seen the pictures, but I just don’t have the memories. Probably because the only time I had flawless acne free skin was when I was very, very young. You see the

My friends and I were talking at dinner recently about the current relationship trend. We are all in a committed relationship, but thought it would be fun to share. Snagging a Manther – A reformed bad boy like Russell Brand, an older guy on the prowl like Jake Gyllenhaal….these

It hit me the other day how beautiful my daughter is. She is at that age, right before I have to let her wear makeup, when her facial structure is taking shape and defining “her look.” She has these big cow shaped blue eyes set just deep enough to leave just the right amount of

The short answer to this conundrum is that all women should really strive to lead as healthy a life as possible from an early age to keep both of these killers at bay. The truth of the matter is that breast cancer gets much more attention than heart disease in women; because it affects
