Pevonia’s C Évolutive Eye Gel ($70) pulls triple-duty, acting as a depuffer, dark circle reducer, and even a makeup primer. Thanks to its gel base formula – teeming with do-good ingredients like vitamin C, ginkgo biloba, and hyaluronic acid – the product soaks right in, and provides instant radiance to the complexion. Fine lines look smoother and the face looks refreshed overall: a true lifesaver for mornings you wake up cursing that last cocktail you consumed. The lightweight gel also happens to glide seamlessly over under-eye makeup for quick, easy touch-ups as needed. You can even put it in your fridge and bring it out midday for an afternoon refresher. How cool is that?

Have you admired Dove’s real beauty campaign from afar? Well, now’s your chance to actually star in one of the ads. Dove is encouraging all women to be confident in their own skin by uploading a photo to the Show Us Your Skin campaign website or its Facebook page . The ads, featuring women of all ages, will run online and even on a Times Square billboard, making it probably one of the most appropriate times to belt out, “If I can make it there, I’ll make it anywhere . . .” This isn’t the first time we’ve seen a consumer call to action from a beauty brand. Bare Escentuals , you might recall, blindly cast its Fall campaign . Also in 2011, Lady Gaga asked her little monsters and Viva Glam lovers to submit self-portraits to potentially be featured on a masterpiece of a gown to help raise awareness for AIDS/HIV. With Dove’s latest offering, however, the living ad campaign is all-encompassing in who will be spotlighted, although probably not all -encompassing. We’re assuming nudity filters will be utilized in some way.

Forget all those scrubs out of your kitchen cabinet, there’s another type of facial exfoliator on the block: Rx for Brown Skin’s Absolute Radiance Exfoliating Serum ($35). Developed by dermatologist Dr. Susan Taylor, the skin care line, including the serum, is formulated specifically for women with medium to dark skin tones. And as for this serum in particular, it brightens the complexion without beads or harsh granules. In just one week, it reveals a luminous complexion void of discoloration (but the best results are seen within six weeks). The key ingredient is glycolic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid that removes dead skin cells. This gentle ingredient also helps remedy acne, while hyaluronic acid locks in moisture. Just remember to wear sunscreen on top of this product because the acidic components increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun. Finally, apply foundation - but when you discover a more even and beautified skin tone, you may opt to go nude.

From a squash racquet court, state-of-the-art gymnasium (complete with an electric horse for simulated riding), and heated pool, first-class passengers aboard the Titanic were the recipients of some of the ship’s finest perks. It was the elaborate Turkish baths, located on the middle deck, though, that were one of the most impressive amenities of all. A popular activity during the Victorian era, Turkish baths provided a place for rest, relaxation, and plenty of perspiration. While the baths were among the first areas to flood before the vessel went down, thanks to well-kept records and a 2005 search by remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), we have a sense of what it was really like to sit and soak aboard the Ship of Dreams. So in remembrance of the 100-year anniversary of the passenger liner’s tragic ending, let’s take a closer look at Titanic’s Turkish baths.
