Style & Living

Does your complexion have a dry or dull finish?  After months of sporting masks, your skin can certainly use a boost for spring. Highlighting and contouring have been staples in the beauty industry for decades, because they have always given makeup artists the ability to sculpt a face. Wide faces can be narrowed, foreheads shortened, and prominent noses can be made to appear smaller. All this is possible to achieve in split seconds, without resorting to plastic surgery. 

Now that Pesach cleaning is behind us and spring is in the air, you may feel compelled to do some spring cleaning in order to organize your beauty items and streamline your morning routine. The following strategies may just be your most valuable time saving tool.  

Pesach is probably the busiest season for women, especially this year when we have 3-day Yom Tov. Between Pesach cleaning, shopping, running a cooking marathon to churn out six meals, and taking care of family needs, there isn’t much personal time left.  

With so many moisturizing options available, where do you begin? An abundance of ads bombards us on a constant basis, and numerous creams and lotions seem to flood the marketplace. It can seem challenging to figure out which products to use. The following questions and answers will help clarify a few things. 

Megillas Esther, the story of events that took place in Persia hundreds of years ago, is not merely historical; it is also a book of hidden miracles with deep and powerful lessons. The moral and spiritual messages, and the shining examples Esther imparted into the Jewish nation, have been passed down from generation to generation.  Therefore, Esther was known as one the greatest women in Jewish history.  As women, we can all learn meaningful lessons from the amazing story of Purim and its hidden miracles.

Stress is unfortunately part of daily life, and when chronic, it can contribute to skin aging and exacerbate skin conditions such as psoriasis, and acne. A bit of exercise can improve the health and appearance of your complexion. Why not give your skin some TLC by practicing good pre and post workout habits?
