Best Products for Wrinkles
Do you look older than you feel? Have crow’s feet got you down? Most people associate wrinkles with aging. Even though most people get wrinkles as they age, wrinkles are not caused by the aging process—they’re a product of sun damage. Wrinkles happen when the sun’s UV rays penetrate the skin and damage the skin’s elastic-like fibers. This causes skin to stretch and never return to its original taut state. There is a slew of anti-aging products on the market that claim to fight wrinkles, but only a few actually work.
FAA Approved Toddler Car Seats
Most parents take every precaution to ensure their children are safe in appropriate car seats when traveling by car. But what about when traveling by plane? The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recommends that all children under 40 pounds use an FAA approved child restraint system (CRS) when flying. According to the FAA, children less than 20 pounds should sit in a rear-facing CRS and children who weigh 20 to 40 pounds should sit in a forward-facing CRS. Toddlers must sit in a forward-facing car seat—not a booster seat. The majority of booster seats use a lap and shoulder belt for proper positioning and these belts are only found in cars, not airplanes. If you’re traveling with a toddler, make sure the seat fits the height and weight of your child and that it’s FAA approved. Seats will not say “FAA Approved” on them, but will say something like, “This restraint is certified for use in motor vehicles and aircraft.” Here are some popular FAA approved toddler car seats.
Does the Pill Affect Mood or Libido?
While birth control pills have revolutionized women’s sexuality, they are not without side effects. Most people are well aware that birth control pills may cause weight gain, nausea and even blood clots. Women may be less aware of less obvious and equally troubling potential side effects of the pill, including depression and loss of libido. Alternatively, some women may find they feel better and have a higher libido while on hormonal contraception. Each woman may react differently to hormonal contraceptives, and one pill may cause fewer side effects than another.
