Have You Ever Had A “Sex and The City” Moment?

Have You Ever Had a "Sex and The City" Moment?

We’re not talking about a Carrie moment, but a full blown Samantha one

The Perfect Derma Peel Help Your Skin Feel and Look Better

In February I talk about The Perfect Derma Peel and the products that they have to help maintain your skin after a peel. I also said that I would be doing one of the peels.

Expert Advice on Exercise: Make it a Habit

The key to reaping the benefits of exercise as you age is to develop a regular, consistent exercise habit. “Consistency trumps intensity when it comes to exercise,” says Joseph Barry, MD, an internist and geriatrician at SignatureMD in Camillus, NY. “If you push too hard, the likelihood of injury increases. If you aren’t consistent with your exercise, like a daily walk, you won’t develop the habit and you won’t keep at it.” Continue reading

How to Celebrate Holidays Aboard a Cruise

How to Celebrate Holidays Aboard a Cruise
“The most popular holiday cruise is on New Year’s Eve,” says Rebecca Brooks, who co-founded Alter Agents, a research firm that represents cruise lines. “Which makes sense, given that you have a big, fun party right outside your door and you won’t have to worry about having to drive after a night of drinking.” Though New Year’s Eve cruises tend to be on the pricier side, Brooks says the revelries are typically included in your rate, so you won’t face sticker shock at the end of the night.
