The "triangle of youth" is a facial map shaped like a triangle, which shows the fuller parts of our faces. When we're young the triangle faces downward, as most of our fat is in the forehead, cheeks, and around the eyes and lips. When we get older the triangle inverses, as sagging skin weighs down our faces and makes us start to look noticeably different. Research shows that on top of that, pigmentation changes from years of sun can also make a person look anywhere from 10-12 years older and studies claim nearly 50 percent of people with issues like hyperpigmentation say they're insecure about their skin. Thankfully, there are more ways than ever to help rejuvenate our bodies, and with procedures like dermal filler injections carrying less of a stigma…

A lively little speakeasy on the Singer Island has quite a backstory. As the legend goes, McCoy was a moonshiner here in South Florida during the times of Prohibition.  He had a hidden speakeasy and a reputation for the best moonshine. People from all walks of life came to indulge in his spirits. To hide from authorities, McCoy had livestock and goats on his land.  The only problem was that the goats would knock over the stills and drink the moonshine.  Guests of the speakeasy loved to watch the drunken goats and relish the evening.

On Tuesday, August 7th from 10am – 4pm, Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse and Museum is celebrating our beloved South Florida aid-to-navigation by offering a buy-one-get-one admission special for the day.

The Jupiter Lighthouse was authorized by Congress to be built in 1853, and construction of the tower was completed in May of 1860, with the official lighting commenced on July 10th, 1860.

From 1860 to 1939, more than 70 different keepers maintained this 108-foot lighthouse, until the civilian lighthouse service merged with the United States Coast Guard in 1939. Military personnel remained its keepers until it was automated in 1987.

The Jupiter Lighthouse remains an treasured local landmark and an active Aid to Navigation, with 1 of only 13 active…
