Welcome to our annual “Beauty Issue.” Spring is a time of renewal of course and there is no more appropriate time to let your own beauty shine through. There are all kinds of things that go into staying “beautiful,” from your daily skincare, to so-called “beauty foods,” to getting an annual full-body skin scan from a dermatologist. In this issue, we will look at all of that, as well as how other areas of our lives can become more beautiful with a good springtime freshening.
We will also look at just a few beauty trends for the 2024-2026 time frame; everything from the possibilities of personalization of your own makeup, to the growing market of men’s beauty and skincare products. We will also give you the reason men are using these products. See the latest in “Interesting Beauty Trends.”
As we all know, literally taking care of your skin is a critical component in your overall beauty care. In this issue we take you through five of the top skincare tips you need to know for maintaining healthy and glowing skin. Basic skincare practices, as well as healthy lifestyle choices are the ticket. See our skincare pointers in “Tips for Everyday Skin Health.”
It’s true we have to take care of our skin from the outside, but we should take care of it from the inside as well. Did you know there are foods that provide your body with the exact nutrients your skin needs to glow from within? There are. Some foods are packed with the good stuff for your skin, without you having to obsess about some exotic ingredient. We tell you about plenty of options you can find in your regular old grocery store. Read “Beauty Foods for Beautiful Skin” for all the details.
You probably visit your doctor for a checkup every year, and your dentist for a teeth cleaning every now and then, but when was the last time you went to a dermatologist for a full-body skin scan? It’s a highly valuable examination. A dermatologist is specially trained to catch any form of skin cancer, and with an annual full-body skin scan they will catch it sooner rather than later. Most skin cancers are highly treatable, especially when caught early. Find out what to expect in that kind of exam in “A Full-Body Skin Scan: What to Expect.”
And lastly, in addition to taking care of your skin and refreshing it after a cold and dry winter, there is also beauty in refreshing other areas of your life. Spring is the time to do it. We give you some ideas on what to tackle in “The Beauty in Refreshing Your Life.”
So that is our issue for this time around. Please join us next time when we shift gears and focus on real estate and home improvement. Until then!
