It seems more and more women are looking to have some facial plastic surgery done to perfect that flattering and ageless look.

Lush Products: My Favorites!
Lush is a cruelty-free, 100% vegetarian brand of bath and body products. They are based in the UK and make natural products by hand with love. Lush is an earth friendly brand. Many of their items are packaged in black plastic pots. Once you have five empty black pots, they can be brought back to the store and exchanged for a free fresh face mask. I think it is wonderful that they reuse their old containers and will give their customers a free face mask for bringing back empty containers for them to recycle.

The Teachings of a Plastic Woman
Plastic surgery is becoming a regularity for those who want to make subtle changes to their body or face. Through the latest, non-invasive technologies such as VASERlipo and microsurgery, the patient can be left with hardly any scar tissue. However, plastic surgery is still expensive and inherently risky. Also, if plastic surgery becomes a regularity, then the risk increases as well as emotional and mental issues that stem from not knowing how to be alright with one's self.

How a Full Body Wrap Will Definitely Help You Be a Better Person
As an anthropologist, I’m a big believer in the power of ceremony and ritual to mark a life transition, especially when very little about your physical environment will be changing. Something needs to mark that boundary. Recently I got a new job, but it’s in the same company. (I don’t actually work in anthropology anymore. I work in data analytics. But it turns out you can take a person out of an academic career in cultural studies, but you can’t take the cultural studies out of her.) To mark my move from one analytics role to another, I chose a form of cleansing ritual. Starting a new life phase with a pause for cleansing is common: many cultures make use of this to mark out boundaries as diverse as taking a new religion to returning from war to becoming adults. In my case, I was just moving a few rows of desks, but I felt it was important anyway.
