Talk it Out
I love my husband, but after 20 years of marriage we have started to grow apart. I am now very tempted to have an affair. I am hoping a therapist can help me to stop feeling this way. If you have experience with this issue or can recommend to the right counselor, please contact me. Thank you!

Party Animal

Express your animal instincts through liquid liner, the cat and doe eye is back in black! Don't know the difference? Think Sophia Loren vs. Marilyn Monroe.    

 

Pretty in Pastels 

Pastels (high-shine or dusty cast) surrounding the eye are popping up all over. Delicate and romantic, avoid going too neutral with your lipstick. A bright orange or coral provides the perfectly paired pout!   

 

A Bright Idea

Saturated shades are in style. We see bright blue, purple, yellow, orange and green and the eyes and bold reds on the lips. It's a fun and sophisticated look for South Florida.    

 

Cheeky Advice  

Blush wisely! Your rule for party night: If your lip color is bright, use a neutral blush. If your lip is neutral, use a brighter blush. 

 

Try Blue Nail Poilsh

Trends are trends! Have fun, experiment and adopt those that work best with your signature look. Your make-up should be as individual as your signature.

 

#2 problems for your little ones?
If your child is not having regular bowel movements or complains about "tummy" aches they could be suffering from functional constipation or hard painful stools. This can be a result of lack of fiber in their diet or insufficient daily water intake. At the Institute for Children's Advanced Nutrition (iCan) & Gastroenterology we specialize in providing GI and nutrition care for newborns, children and young adults. Pediatric Gastroenterologist, Dr. Deb Duro and her team can help your child achieve a balanced diet by providing the right nutrition and hydration recommendations.
