It's Out With the "Botax," in With the "Tantax"
You might remember hearing about the so-called "botax," a proposed five percent tax that would have affected those partaking in elective cosmetic surgery. However, with mounting pressure from the medical industry, who claimed that the tax was discriminatory against women (since we are typically the main customers of such services), it's out with the botax and in with the "tantax."

Beauty Byte: Tanning Beds Are a Confirmed Carcinogen
If you didn't believe me about the risk of tanning beds before, please stop and read this now. Assessments by World Health Organization oncologists (cancer specialists) have concluded what we've suspected for years — that the UV light used in artificial tanning beds is indeed a carcinogen, one at the same grade of toxicity as gamma radiation and plutonium. This means that instead of saying that the radiation from a tanning bed might cause cancer, now we know that it undoubtedly will.
Should States Ban Tanning Beds For Teens?
I hate to sound like a broken record, but tanning is so bad for you. Put aside the accelerated signs of aging, which are no trip to the beach. (Ha.) Not only does UV exposure create uneven skin tone and wrinkles, it also can cause melanoma.
