ime flies, and we are already on the fifth edition of My Lifestyle Magazine. Every page and every article has a unique purpose. We work hard to bring you a top Latino magazine that is bicultural – a product that has not been exposed before to the New York Market. This month’s cover model, Cindy Taylor, is a reflection of that. Cindy was first cast as the host of Wild On!, a popular travel series on the E! Entertainment Television Channel in 2002. For Taylor, that was only the beginning. In 2005, Taylor shot a cameo role in the Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams romantic comedy Wedding Crashers. That same year, she landed a supporting role in the independent feature film "Descansos", opposite Gary Busey and Charles Durning. Then in 2007, Taylor made an appearance in the sequel to Bachelor Party and appeared in the music video for Nickelback’s Rockstar. Her projects showcase that even with her Latino upbringing, she feels bicultural. Interacting within a multicultural environment is a part of life here in New York City. I talk to Latinos all the time who believe that embracing biculturalism is essential, and our team is dedicated to do doing just that – breaking Latino stereotypes. These days, it is about being a navigator and achieving the American Dream. My Lifestyle Magazine highlights these values. Regardless of generation and tradition, we are both languages and both cultures. Inside this fifth edition, we hold onto our conviction that we must stay true to our roots and language. At the same time, we embrace and love our American culture. As we emerge into English and Spanish, recent census projections indicate the Hispanic population in the U.S. will triple by 2050, from 46.7 million in 2008 to 132.8 million in 2050. Hispanics will be the largest minority group in the country by a large margin by that time. In fact, according to the figures, one in three U.S. residents will be Hispanic. As we showcase Cindy Taylor on the cover, we believe she is an outstanding example of a successful model who is both proud and comfortable being a bicultural, bilingual Latina. She has no problem defining her place in the U.S. and doesn’t feel she is discriminated against. Taylor keeps up with her Latin music, news and sports. She remains focused on how she can take her modeling career to the next level. What I found particularly fascinating about Cindy is that despite her career achievements as a model, actress and TV presenter, she has reemerged into the spotlight even stronger. She is constantly looking for opportunities to expose herself to things non-Hispanic and feels comfortable being among people from different backgrounds. She is a true definition of someone who gravitates toward success and is all about being a navigator and a dreamer. I hope the stories you read inside this fifth edition give you the drive to reach for something higher. Let the universe be an open channel of opportunities for you and inspiration the source that carries you along the way. Keep moving forward

S
ummer is well underway and if you haven’t made it to the beach yet, then it means you are probably busy shopping for sexy swimsuits that will do your body justice. Needless to say, you should also be keeping up with the most popular trends for this summer season as well as the techniques for choosing the perfect swimsuit. In this tough economy it is important to weigh your options; so consider that in this capitalist wonder we live in, there are lots of options available. And before you even head out to shop, check online on sites like www.pescaboutique.com, where you might be able to get more for less. Now that you have the savings part down to a science, you can concentrate on the actual fashion. The American theme is still in. If you love prints, then this is the style for you. Take a walk on the wild side with a safari inspired suit or feel über chic on a sexy one piece. You are now set with the perfect suit, a little extra cash from savings and a sense of style to match regardless of whether you swim, surf, catch a wave or just like to have fun in the sun!!! * T rend research by Nataly Yabur

TIPS Remember, swimsuits may look great on the rack but it doesn’t necessarily mean that they’d look great on your body. The following are some tips to choose a bathing suit that best fits your body type. RECTANGLE What this body type needs to do is to create curves. What favors your body type: Solid colors if you are large, prints if you are petite loose clothing and strings you can tie on the sides, that way it creates a more voluminous waistline. What you should avoid: Strapless because it gives your body a square look. HOURGLASS SHAPE The shoulders and the hips have the same proportion and the waist is well defined. What favors your body type: With this body type most bathing suits will look good. If you want to be in fashion, the mono-kini (a mix between a bikini and a full bathing suit with an open cut on the sides or in front) would be a good selection. What you should avoid: Nothing. You make everything look good! Triangle The waist is wider than the shoulders. What favors your body type: Two piece bathing suits. The bottom should be discreet, lateral thick strings, no exaggerated prints that bring out the size of your hips. What you should avoid: Bathing suits that tie at the bottom. Inverted Triangle The upper body is wider than the hips. What favors your body type: Your objective is to minimize your upper body. The lower body with knots at the sides to create volume at the hips; prints and bright colors. What you should avoid: Designs with low or small cup size and wearing a size smaller than yours. Oval That’s a body type that is bulged, or if you have a body that is round in the lateral and central part of your body. What favors your body: One piece bathing suits, tankini (t-shirt and bikini). Monochromatic, only one color suits, preferably in dark tones like black, navy blue and purple. If you are going to opt for a two piece design, you should go for models with decorative elements in the upper body or a V cut style to take the attention away from the abdomen. What you should avoid: Bright or shiny colors. A tight top. Lower bikinis that show too much skin or that is too tight on the sides.

INTRODUCING...
Sandra Baquero Convertible fashion
By L.D. Pinzon Photography:Andres Castro Hair: Jose “JuNi” Cardona Makeup: Marleen Rivera
S
andra Baquero is an up-and-coming, Bogotá-born fashion designer. Always on the search for women’s comfort, Baquero
studied at the one of the most prestigious design schools in Colombia, Taller 5. When she first studied at Taller 5 there was no fashion design program, so she studied textiles for a year until the school opened its fashion program, making her one of the "Taller 5’s" first fashion students. In her early days, Baquero was considered a shy student by most of her professors, but almost all of these educators had high expectations for her.
WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011
In the background is an original design by Sandra Baquero. This dress bends the rules. The fabrics helped to develop the curves and lines of this dress. It took shape on the dummy. She did not draw it, Baquero says she just got carried away by the call of the fabric.

“
An individual who has inspiration or art in his or her mind, can manipulate it with their creativity; art is created from nothing,”
W
hile in school, Baquero tackled each and every project, especially her thesis, which was one of the most ambitious projects that her school had ever seen, with passion and precision. For that particular collection (her thesis), Baquero was inspired by flora and fauna. The toucan was a major inspiration. Every article used in her collection was eco-friendly. Not one article defied nature; most were recycled/used by somebody else. She used everything from fish scales to feathers, and handmade coffee bean replicas. She cleaned and drilled a hole into each scale and painted fabrics by hand in order to give a native identity to the clothes. There are no rules or boundaries for her creations. Her style is based on her culture, Colombian indigenous populations, and nature. Her designs are heavily influenced by the daily life in New York and its multicultural environment. Every time she walks the NYC streets, she says she finds new and diverse inspirations in people, and the environments that surround her. “If I have enough time, I would like to do plenty of things with nature and used items,” says Baquero. Her muse is nature. For this reason she enjoys incorporating flora in her pieces. Baquero says she prefers used materials that have been discarded, instead of using pieces that could be harmful toward animals. “An individual who has inspiration or art in his or her mind, can manipulate it with their creativity; art is created from nothing,” says Baquero. When she designs, she prefers to feel comfortable, free, and happy with the colors. Alexander McQueen is her favorite designer. The late designer’s legacy inspires Baquero to leave boundaries behind her, realize not everything has to be perfect, and create designs in architectural forms. Don’t follow the rules, think outside the box, and don’t copy Alexander McQueen air her main goals. She wants her collections to be unique and her designs unexpected. Baquero’s apparel is for everyday and WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011
for everyone. She never wanted to do trend, or pursue a particular style. She closed her eyes to follow the guides of fashion and embrace the guides of her heart. “Each collection has a unique spirit,” she explains. Her productions are exclusive and unique. If the size is not right, she will tailor it to fit it. Baquero wants to make sure that every woman feels comfortable when they’re wearing her designs. In her last collection, her runway pieces were inspired by the earth tones: browns, tans, greys, greens, oranges, whites, and some reds. The colors in the earth tone scheme are muted and flat to emulate natural colors found in soil, moss, trees and rocks. Many of these tones originate from clay, and other earth pigments, like umber, ochre, and sienna. A little-known secret about her last collection was she drew on fabrics to create folds and textures. She says it's like painting a picture with every design: every stroke is unique, each line is different, but the colors and paints are not obvious since they are hidden among the fabrics. The seams create architectural figures, giving each design a unique personality. This collection has a Caribbean feel which includes crocheted robes, so you can see the skin in a seductive way. When someone purchases one of Baquero’s pieces she teaches them how to use the newly purchased piece; the different ways of dressing and knowing every little detail. She gifts them a video with some designs that allows her clients to use her designs in unique ways and know which profiles work best for them. Baquero offers two pieces of advice for dressing in her designs: first, find the color and the lines that fit your personality and figure, and second, seek out the right accessories.

C
indy Taylor had it all. As a fashion model, actress, and television host, she had found the success that most aspiring entertainers dream of. Then suddenly, in 2006, her life took an expected turn. During the height of her career, Taylor’s mother was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), which is also referred to as Lou Gehrig's Disease, a disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. With voluntary muscle action progressively affected, patients in the later stages of the disease may become totally paralyzed and eventually die. "It's just now that I feel 100% ready to move on to another chapter in my life. Sometimes, I guess you have to go through things in life that remind you how blessed you are to be here and to have a chance to live life fully! It's not easy, but I think I'm on the right path. I feel motivated and exited again. The rest, I leave in Gods hands," Taylor says. Taylor, a native of Paraguay, is the spokesperson for Proactive® in the Latin America and US Hispanic market. Taylor also hosts Fashion TV's "Fashion Tour Experience", a show that attracts over 22 million viewers. Back in 2002, she replaced Brooke Burke as the host of Wild On!, a popular travel series on the E! Entertainment Television Channel. She’s made appearances in films such as Wedding Crashers, Bachelor Party 2 and the acclaimed independent film, Descansos. She has also appeared in advertisements for popular brands such as Guess, Pantene, Parasuco, Perry Ellis, and Rampage. And she’s graced the cover of publications such as Esquire, Ocean Drive Magazine, Shape Magazine, Loft Magazine, Men’s Journal, Vanidades, and Glamour. WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011

"There are so many things that I know now that would have come in handy back then, but isn't that what every person in the world says when they look back [to the past]? I have no regrets though. Everything good and bad in my life has made me who I am. And I will continue to make mistakes. The difference now is that I don't beat myself over them and just accept them as part of my journey," Taylor says. And that journey has opened a new path in her life. Because of the struggles she went through with her mom, she is now on working on a foundation to raise money to give quality of life to those affected by ALS. “City by Cindy," a weekly documentary is set to begin shooting this September in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The show is about kids on the streets and their struggle and drug abuse. "I think what gives us all courage is when you look back at certain times in your life where you felt you hit rock bottom and somehow you were able to get back on your feet, is knowing that you were strong enough once and that you could do it all again," Taylor says. When asked what beauty means to her, Taylor considers it as something that comes from within. "[Beauty is] something that is hard to even describe…You don't know why your attracted or drawn to it. It's a perfect combination between what you see and what it makes you feel,” Taylor says. What she knows for sure is that when it comes to photo shoots, she trusts her team. "Great pictures are the ones that capture the world behind your eyes. And of course, know your angles, we all have good and bad ones," Taylor says.

Taylor was very flexible and cooperative during the photo shoot. She even climbed onto a roof as the photographer suggested. When asked who her ideal man would be, Taylor replies, "Well, first of all I have to be physically attracted to him! But more importantly someone who doesn't judge me, that accepts me just the way I am and knows that I won't change even if try to. And someone who is a good partner in general who has things in common with me, so that when the initial excitement goes away we have so much more that keeps us together”. Although Taylor has been handed some curveballs throughout her life, her strength and perseverance during these tough times are what has molded her into the endearing woman she is today. When asked if hardships can bring about positive outcomes, Taylor replies, "Definitely! Your essence will always be the same, but [life experiences] change you forever. It’s made me stronger. I see life differently now. I understand how important it is to live in the present and not worry so much about what is going to happen. Ultimately-no matter how good or bad things are, how poor or rich you are, or how happy you might be or not-we will never have control over tomorrow".

What is Reiki?
All about the japanese art of energy healing
T
he Japanese word “Reiki,” [pronounced RAY-key], has the following significance: “rei” means universal and “ki” means life force energy (also known as “ch” or “qi”). Reiki is a powerful healing technique, usually performed by lying of the hands, that uses life-force energy to heal, and balance the subtle energies within the body. It can address problems of any kind: physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual. Reiki healers channel universal life force energy and use it to heal and promote well-being and equilibrium. Everyone has universal life force flowing through them via pathways called “chakras” and “meridians.” This force also flows around us in a field of energy called “the aura.” Life force nourishes the organs and cells of the body and supports each one in its vital function. When the flow of life force is disrupted, the organs and tissues of the physical body do not work as well as they could. Life force also responds to our thoughts and feelings. When we consciously, or unconsciously, accept negative thoughts or feelings about ourselves, our life force energy is disrupted. Negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to the aura and interfere with the flow of life force energy. Reiki works to bring combat these disruptions and bring you into total balance. Life force energy has a natural intelligence and goes wherever it is needed within the body, cleaning out toxins in the process. Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the aura and charging them with positive energy. It raises the level of vibration in the energy field in, and around, the physical body where negative thoughts and feelings are attached. The negative energy then breaks apart and falls away. The Reiki clears, straightens, and heals the energy pathways, which allows the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way. Reiki practitioners serve as vessels that deliver healing energies where they are needed the most. Reiki's ki-energies flow through the practitioner's body and then through the palms of their WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011

hands. Practitioners receive their training from a Reiki master, or teacher. The training includes learning specific information, and receiving attunements, which resemble initiations. When you go for a Reiki healing session, you can expect a relaxing atmosphere. The mood may be set with dim lights, meditative music, or water fountains. However, some practitioners prefer to be in a place that is completely silent, without music or any sound. In a healing session you will be asked to lie down on a massage table, couch, or bed, fully clothed. Receiving Reiki is a very relaxing and soothing experience and you should feel more calm and balanced after your session. There is no need to worry about any potential harm in receiving Reiki. It is not harmful, and was created with a helpful intention. The universal life force energy knows what each person requires and will adjust itself bring the effect that is right for you. Give it a try and see how it can support you in reaching your maximum potential.

en centros no adscritos que no son registradas y son muy difíciles de controlar; ofrecen cirugías a muy bajos costos y perjudican principalmente a los pacientes. Además de Cali (donde en el 2006 se abrieron 20 clínicas estéticas), Bogotá y Medellín son las ciudades líderes en ofrecer este tipo de servicios. Además de las empresas que ofrecen los paquetes enteros, hoy en día los cirujanos plásticos en Colombia se promocionan para mercados extranjeros, con páginas web bilingües donde los mayores atractivos que se le ofrecen al cliente son la belleza del país, la calidad de los servicios médicos y el precio. Esos tres motivos, y especialmente el último, son los que atraen a los extranjeros que deciden viajar por una cirugía. Le preguntamos a varios expertos para que nos contaran la mejor manera de acceder a un procedimiento estético y esto fue lo que nos dijeron: Antes de someterse a cualquier intervención de cirugía plástica, es necesario contemplar una serie de factores si no queremos tener ningún tipo de problemas y que nuestra recuperación sea lo más rápida y satisfactoria posible. En primer lugar, tenemos que ser conscientes de que cualquier cirugía estética es una intervención quirúrgica, por pequeña que sea y tiene unos riesgos que hay que asumir, por lo que no podemos tomar a la ligera el hecho de ser operados. Es imprescindible elegir un buen cirujano y tenemos derecho a informarnos sobre sus estudios, profesionalidad, técnicas... No debemos dejarnos influir por anuncios que prometen milagros, ya que estos no existen ni tampoco por médicos que ofrecen grandes precios pero que muchas veces, ni su preparación ni sus técnicas son las adecuadas.

Colombia, la esquina consentida de Suramérica es un destino perfecto para el turismo de todas partes del mundo, cada día más y más gente de todas las latitudes llegan a disfrutar de todos los atractivos que el país ofrece. Turismo de lujo, de tipo ecológico, familiar, de mochilero; hay de todo como en botica. Por Sabrina Malaguer
De unos años para acá otra variante de turismo ha venido incrementando el número de visitantes, pues más allá de playa, brisa y mar, montañas, ríos preciosos, comida exquisita, ciudades hermosas y acogedoras, gente de todas partes está viajando a Colombia en busca de belleza, no en estas cosas que de sobra hay, me refiero a belleza física, belleza propia; así como lo ven, Colombia es hoy por hoy uno de los destinos más apetecidos para lo que se conoce como “Turismo Médico”, y existe un sitio en el occidente de este bello país, que se ha consolidado como una especie de meca en cuanto al tema de procedimientos quirúrjicos en materia estética, Cali. Son muchos los extranjeros que viajan a Cali buscando algún procedimiento médico mediante planes todo incluido donde el paciente recibe transporte, alojamiento, cirugía y turismo, todo en uno. También, una gran cantidad de colombianos que viven afuera aprovechan su visita para hacerse algún procedimiento estético. Cómo funciona? Existen planes que incluyen todo, desde el tiquete de avión, hospedaje, alimentación costos médicos y de recuperación, visitas a spa, salidas de compras y tours guiados por la ciudad que elijan para obtener su tratamiento, sólo es cuestión de asesorarse bien. Este auge ofrece diferentes paquetes médicos en especial tratamientos odontológicos, oftalmológicos y sobre todo cirugías como aumento de busto y cola, liposucciones, entre otras. Todo esto gracias a la bien ganada reputación que tienen nuestros cirujanos plásticos y la también bien reputada calidad de nuestras clínicas. WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011
Make a change in your life...
Los cirujanos y las empresas trabajan en conjunto con cadenas hoteleras para ofrecer a sus pacientes un servicio completo y con las mayores satisfacciones. Sin embargo, este aumento en la demanda ha causado un incremento en los riesgos para el paciente, por falta de información. Los médicos recomiendan al paciente siempre buscar un cirujano plástico certificado para evitar cualquier clase de riesgo. A pesar de que los riesgos han aumentado, los extranjeros continúan viajando para someterse a estas cirugías. Hablando de la integridad y credibilidad de los profesionales que escojamos para darnos una manita de gato, queremos recomendarles la Clínica D’Corpus International, donde verdaderos especialistas encabezados por el reconocido Doctor Beman Galvis y su equipo de trabajo, pueden hacer de sus sueños una realidad, de manera segura y confiable, en una de las ciudades meas bonitas de Colombia. No existen cifras exactas de cuántos extranjeros van a Colombia en este plan turístico; en junio de este año más de 600.000 turistas ingresaron a Colombia, de esta cantidad es imposible saber con exactitud cuántos de ellos vienen a operarse, pues casi ninguno solicita visa médica. Sólo con el visado de turista pueden hacerse la operación, gracias al corto tiempo de recuperación. Tampoco hay una cifra de cuántos procedimientos de este tipo se realizan al año en Colombia; las operaciones registradas en centros hospitalarios adscritos a la asociación superan las 200.000 anuales. Sin embargo, existe una enorme cantidad de operaciones “de garaje” o
hará la cirugía estética, debemos ponernos en sus manos y ser absolutamente honestos a la hora de contestar a cualquier pregunta que nos haga, ya que esto puede influir decisivamente a la hora de la recuperación. Las pruebas pre-operatorias son también de gran importancia, ya que nos van a aclarar cual es nuestro verdadero estado y nos indicarán si la intervención está indicada. Estas pruebas básicas son: Hemograma, VHS, Test de coagulación y Perfil Bioquímico, aunque según las partes del cuerpo que queremos intervenir , necesitaremos otras pruebas más específicas que nos indicará el cirujano. La semana antes de la cirugía estética, no debemos tomar vasodilatadores ni antioxidantes y es importante reducir el tabaco y alcohol . Coma y duerma bien y si tiene la regla dígaselo a su médico. El día antes de la intervención, acuda sin maquillaje para que su especialista le haga una evaluación final (si la cirugía estética es facial), consulte cualquier duda que tenga y asegúrese que la clínica está reservada para la operación. Esa noche cene ligero y duerma todo lo que pueda. El día de la operación no desayune, dúchese y acuda al hospital contratado con el tiempo suficiente, no lleve joyas ni gafas, resuelva alguna duda que aún le quede y facilite en recepción el teléfono de sus parientes cercanos por si tuvieran que llamarlos. Por último, si tras la operación de cirugía estética tuviera dolores o malestar, no dude en consultarlo con el médico y pedir que le suministre los analgésicos adecuados. Ya lo saben, si toman la decisión de hacerse un retoque aquí y otro allá... Colombia es el destino ideal.

en and women have always hoped for slim and youthful bodies. Obesity, aside from the multiple social limitations, is also the cause for disruption and harmful effects to the physical and emotional health and well-being of an individual. Diabetes, hypertension, coronary disease and circulatory problems go hand in hand with depression and low self esteem. Nowadays, with the applied technological advances to medicine and the most modern surgical techniques, it is possible to reduce the size of the stomach (bariatric surgery), elimi-
nate the excess skin (post-bariatric surgery) or simply take away the fat accumulations from the different parts of the body (mega liposculpture), in order to obtain or regain that ideal figure that we’ve always dreamed of. D´CORPUS INTERNATIONAL offers all types of bariatric and post-bariatric surgery in modern clinics located in Cali, which has the best specialists in Colombia, advised by a full team of psychologists and nutritionists. We also have the necessary logistics for transport, accommodations, nursing and bilingual passenger service.

Paso 4:Gel descongestivo Reafirmante con vitamina E (especialmente si tienes 30 años o más) Ayuda a minimizar las ojeras, se coloca una pequeña porción en la zona de las ojeras y los párpados. Es ideal si se conserva en la heladera ya que el frío ayuda a que las zonas afectadas se descongestionen más rápidamente. Paso 5: Pre base de maquillaje (Primer) Siliconadas: Dejan la piel muy suave. Una vez puesta, la base de maquillaje da la sensación de unos poros más cerrados, con la sensación de piel perfecta. Fluidas hidratantes: Cuando tenemos una piel seca y deshidratada es fácil que aparezcan grumos al aplicar la base de maquillaje. Este tipo de pre-base nos prepara la piel para evitar que esto suceda. Equilibrantes: Sirven para evitar la aparición de los antiestéticos brillos en las pieles grasas.
IT’S TIME TO MAKE A CHANGE
Mis preferidas son las primeras por el acabado tan suave y perfecto que dejan en la piel. Pero tienen el inconveniente de que al taponar los poros, hay que desmaquillar muy bien para que no favorezca la formación de acné. Pese a lo mucho que me gustan, no las recomendaría para su uso diario. No debemos olvidar que nuestra piel es como un lienzo: cuanto más preparado y mejor esté, mejor será el resultado final. Para ello es muy importante cuidarla y mantenerla a diario, y usar productos específicos para antes del maquillaje
CONSEJOS: PASO 1: LIMPIEZA Se puede emplear una emulsión de limpieza para pieles normales a secas, o un gel de limpieza para pieles mixtas o grasas. Aplicar una pequeña cantidad en todo el rostro y enjuagar con agua abundante. Paso 2: Tonificación Es recomendable usar una loción herbácea sin alcohol con extractos de tilo y manzanilla que sirve para todo tipo de piel, ya que tonifica e hidrata la piel y a su vez tiene propiedades descongestivas. Embeber en un algodón y distribuir en todo el rostro. También se puede brumizar la piel directamente en el rostro en cualquier momento del día. UNA VEZ POR SEMANA CONSEGUIR UNA PIEL MÁS SUAVE CON EL EXFOLIANTE Uno de los pasos más importantes para mantener la piel siempre tersa es eliminar las células muertas. Exfoliar esta primera capa de la piel mejora su luminosidad y textura. MASCARILLA PURIFICANTE Se puede utilizar mascarillas para eliminar en profundidad las impurezas y el exceso de grasa que segregan los poros, aportando de forma inmediata una piel de aspecto suave, liso, y radiante, ya que cierra completamente el poro y deja la piel completamente mate. Paso 3: Humectante DE DIA: HIDRATACIÓN CON PROTECCIÓN SOLAR La piel pierde firmeza y el color de la piel parece más apagado. Con las cremas hidratantes aportamos los elementos necesarios como oligoelementos y extractos de plantas que favorecen la retención del agua. DE NOCHE: REGENERACIÓN Si es seca debe ser una crema más untuosa o nutritiva. Si por el contrario es grasa, se debe utilizar un fluido oil free
WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011
En la cara debes utilizar distintos productos que en el resto del cuerpo: Esto se debe a que la piel del rostro es más fina que la del cuerpo y, consecuentemente, mucho más sensible al sol. Por eso, es conveniente utilizar protectores específicos, con factor de protección más alto que el del cuerpo. Un consejo extra: antes de aplicar el filtro solar, aplícate aloe con vitamina E. De esta forma tomarás color sin oxidar tu piel. El maquillaje y el sol: Tomar sol maquillada puede llegar a producirte manchas y/o irritación, además de un bronceado desparejo. Siempre que el producto sea de una buena calidad, puedes maquillarte tranquila, pero luego de tomar sol. Y para hacerlo, debes tener la piel limpia y una base de protección solar si es que vas a seguir exponiéndote al sol indirectamente.

El SPF indicado para cada piel: La elección del protector depende del color de la piel y no de su sequedad o grasitud. Pieles muy blancas deben usar pantallas con SPF 40 o más, mientras que las pieles más oscuras pueden utilizar SPF 30 para protegerse y filtros SPF 15 para tomar sol de manera segura. Protege la piel siempre que estés bajo el sol. Incluso aunque esté nublado. A veces los rayos UV son enemigos ‘a la sombra' porque aunque no los notemos en toda su intensidad, siguen incidiendo y provocando daños irreparables. ¡Qué bien nos sentimos con la piel morenita! Pero qué pavor cuando vemos las manchas del sol. La hiperpigmentación es una de las secuelas indelebles que nos puede dejar el verano, para evitarlo, hay que tener en cuenta algunos cuidados básicos: prepararla antes, protegerla con un buen protector solar, y después, nutrirla con los mejores activos cosméticos.

La Ley De Igualdad de Matrimonio "El gran techo que promueve la unión"
Por Carlos Anaya carlos@carlosanaya.net
M
ás allá de la unión legal, los beneficios y las ventajas del matrimonio gay solucionan problemas de herencia y permiten el derecho a tomar decisiones de salud en caso de una emergencia de vida o muerte, además de todos los beneficios legales que recibe una pareja heterosexual. Las personas que se encuentren en “el clóset” podrán ahora tener una vida más digna y dejar de vivir mentiras múltiples que los dañen a ellos y a las personas que los rodean. De hecho se dice que incluso la promiscuidad será menor ahora que social y moralmente ya es aceptable casarse con personas del mismo sexo. Más de 42,000 parejas homosexuales del estado de Nueva York se beneficiarán de una licencia matrimonial. Al cierre de esta edición, el mundo verá por primera vez cómo el amor sobrepasa las barreras que la sociedad le ha impuesto a las parejas del mismo sexo cuando en un momento histórico un juez les diga: "son un matrimonio legal en la ciudad de Nueva York". Está resolución promueve el respeto y la igualdad de quienes prefieren establecer una unión legal con personas del mismo sexo, al mismo tiempo protege y brinda una mayor seguridad social a estas parejas. El pasado mes de Junio y tras semanas de intensas negociaciones en el senado, los republicanos finalmente accedieron a dar su voto para la aprobación de esta ley. La Ley de Igualdad de Matrimonio fue aprobada por 33 contra 29 votos. El Gobernador Andrew Cuomo se vio presionado a negociar con los senadores más conservadores quienes se mostraron reacios ante la propuesta de esta nueva ley. La aprobación resulta un logro histórico para las organizaciones homosexuales que venían WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011
www.carlosanayaonline.com
impulsando esa legislación desde hace décadas. Nueva York se convierte entonces, en el sexto estado del país que reconoce el matrimonio gay. Los otros cinco son: Iowa, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont y el Distrito de Columbia (Washington DC). Cabe mencionar que la ley también protege a los grupos religiosos que elijan rechazar el matrimonio del mismo sexo, ya que estos no pueden ser demandados al hacerlo. Lo más interesante es que las parejas latinas gay y lesbianas son las que más se beneficiarán de las protecciones económicas y familiares que ofrece el matrimonio. Según los estudios, esto se debe a que al pagar impuestos, parejas heterosexuales de cierto nivel económico, casadas y con hijos, reciben más deducciones y créditos que las personas solteras, y está demostrado que hay un gran porcentaje de parejas latinas del mismo sexo que están criando hijos. Esta decisión traerá millones de dólares en ganancias a los hoteles, restaurantes y tiendas por departamento del Estado de Nueva York. Lo irónico es que es más caro divorciarse, que casarse. La revista Forbes estimula la aprobación del matrimonio gay ya que esto ayudaría a la economía nacional con más de diecisiete mil millones de dólares anuales. De cada dos matrimonios heterosexuales en este país, uno se divorcia. Me atrevo a decir que los matrimonios del mismo sexo cambiarán esa cifra ya que la perseverancia por lograr la legalidad de amarse libremente lo vencerá todo.

Summer In the Hamptons Article and Photography by Cesar Florez
S
ummer 2011 has finally thawed out the long frosty winter we endured, and evaporated into reality the anxious memories where we longed for sunny days that would allow us to come out of our cavernous domiciles. No more long coats, long johns, long sleeves, long-flapping hats to cover our ears, long scarves, well you get the idea. The only thing low coming out of this past and frigid winter, aside from our desire to come out, was the low temperatures and low number of activities we felt like doing in the great outdoors. But let’s not dwell on the past and let’s take a walk on the boardwalk of possibilities for this already steamy summer where an optimistic smile adorns our faces.

The sunny destinations are many and the packing to be done is light. But unless you planned your vacation so it would coincide with the sunny season or you are a student without financial worries, your options are not as vast as you might like. In spite of these apparent hurdles, us New Yorkers aren’t without good options. We can cool down while stationed at the chosen neighborhood hydrants, at the sprinkling fountains of our city parks, or at the pools of a nearby YMCA or park pool. But let’s be honest, there is nothing like packing your gear and maybe even your kids to spend a day or a weekend of relaxation by the beach. Enjoying the warmth of the caressing sun combined with the breeze of the ocean, all while renewing your tan and enjoying the view of the beach behind your Ray Ban sunglasses. Now, I’m not talking about Rockaway Beach, Orchard Beach, Coney Island, or even Jones Beach; don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with them and if you find the right spot on the right day, you can make one of these beaches work for you. However, let me ask you this, wouldn’t you rather spend your relaxing time in one of the best beaches of the whole United States? Well, let me tell you that such beaches are at the reach or your well deserved fingertips. You don’t have to go online to get a plane ticket or book a hotel or anything like that. The most you’ll need to go for online will be to check the forecast and to print out driving directions to such a place. I’m talking about The Hamptons; yes, the famous part of Long Island known for the extravagant, luxurious mansions and houses of the rich and famous. The summer will not only bring you to the Hamptons, but also new places to dine, shop, and of course, party. The Hampton beaches feature beautiful white sand, dunes, surfing, lifeguards during the summer, and magnificent fireworks on Labor Day weekend as well as on the 4th of July and other select dates during the summer. Children, as well as adults can take part or just be witnesses to events like the Annual East Hampton Sand Castle Contest, which this year will be held on the 6th of August from 9am to 4pm. You can also enjoy live entertainment at some local spots during the week and weekends, and if you are into art, you can visit some of the town’s art galleries and shows being offered during the season. The Hamptons are considered by many WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011
“the ultimate summer playground.” For the past few years, Main Beach in East Hampton and Coopers Beach in Southampton are selected amid the top ten beaches in the USA. If you surf the web, you can even find sites where they are listed as one of the top two and others among the top four. Keep in mind that the competition includes beaches from Hawaii and the entire US coasts, both East and West. I would say this is something to brag about, but even better if you can say you get your tan in one of these beaches. In addition to the historical sites of the Hamptons, this particular part of Long Island is considered an American Viticultural Area, which is a fancy way of saying that the cultivation of grapevines is prevalent and the making of wine is yet another one of the community’s attractions. The beaches at the Hamptons are run by the local municipalities and each has their own requirements, regulations and amenities. All the beaches require that you have a permit to use the beach (a sticker for the car). Residents get to use the beach for free, but as a visitor, most beaches offer the option or purchasing a day pass which can range in price from $20.00 to $40.00 for the entire day. This is not a bad price at all considering that you are in an exclusive area, beautiful beaches which you will share with celebrities like Julianne Moore, Billy Joel, Puff Diddy, Jay Z, Beyonce, Alec Baldwin and many more. And for those of us who from time to time like to adventure past the SPF in our sunscreen, there is the world famous Ditch Plains Beach in Montauk with a jetty that creates long-board waves, a surfer’s delight. Families can also play it safe at the popular and also beautiful Ponquoge Beach which is complete with a large and clean parking area, light golden sand, a deck with bathrooms (not available at all beaches), a handy outdoor shower, covered picnic tables and a busy refreshment stand, a cool hangout spot for young teenagers. All in all, the Hamptons is the perfect getaway from the mundane and the routine. Who said you have to be a celebrity to enjoy life like one? Treat yourself to a local resort of culture, relaxation, fun and adventure. Not far from your backyard is a paradise of enjoyment, don’t miss the opportunity.

" Tierra prometida, casi desconocida"
Una mirada en directo a las tradiciones y a una parte de la misma historia del Paraguay es lo que ofrece una nueva propuesta turística que busca insuflar oxígeno al sector turístico de este bello país. Por Kike Seba
P
araguay es un país donde se mezcla su naturaleza y su historia. Su vida es una resultante del suelo y del subsuelo, de sus bosques y de sus campos, de su cielo, de sus vientos y de sus aguas, de las razas que lo habitan, de las luchas que se desarrollan dentro de sus fronteras, de sus hombres representativos y de sus muchedumbres. La variedad, la calidad y la singularidad de los atractivos de Paraguay, constituyen para el turista un "destino seducción". En Paraguay la colorida tierra roja, su selva bravía, sus caudalosos ríos, su idioma guaraní armonioso, sus centros artesanales, su música y su sincera hospitalidad, le darán ciudadanía paraguaya al turista y así poder decir igual que nosotros, …. Asunción es un municipio autónomo, esto quiere decir que no está adscrita a ningún departamento es la capital del país además de la sede de los tres poderes del Estado, el principal puerto fluvial y el centro cultural del país. La ciudad es sede de la Iglesia de La Encarnación, y el Panteón Nacional de los Héroes, una pequeña versión de Les Invalides en París, donde muchos de los héroes nacionales y ex presidentes están enterrados. Otros monumentos son el "Palacio de los López" (Palacio Presidencial), el antiguo edificio del Senado (un edificio moderno se abrió para acoger al Congreso en 2003), La Catedral Metropolitana y la Casa de Independencia, entre otros. WWW.MYLIFESTYLENY.COM | AUGUST/SEPTEMBER2011
Aparte de Asunción, Paraguay tiene muchas más sorpresas por mostrar, a continuación, te ofrecemos una guía, con los sitios más importantes dentro de la infraestructura turística paraguaya: SAN BERNARDINO: Ciudad Turística Fundada en 1881 por colonos Alemanes, famosa por estar ubicada a orillas del legendario Lago Ypacarai, muy conocido por la canción que lleva el mismo nombre. Muchas son las Actividades relacionadas al Turismo de Aventura y deportes que en esa hermosa ciudad pueden realizarse. Una de las empresas que ofrece este servicio es AventuraXtrema, situada en el centro de la ciudad, desarrolla paseos relacionados al Turismo de Aventura durante todo el año. LUQUE: La ciudad de Luque se halla asentada sobre una planicie que se extiende desde el lago de Ypacaraí hasta la margen occidental del río Paraguay. Las viviendas y edificios tienen muchas características de arquitectura colonial y neoclásica. Son aproximadamente del siglo XVII en su mayor parte. Algunas son neoclásicas, otras coloniales y, aunque varían en la fachada, la tipología sigue siendo lineal.

Chance:
"The Celebrity Guru" – Chance TV.com
When people think of a wild adventure, bungee jumping or swimming with sharks come to mind. If they really want a crazy, unpredictable often mind altering experience, they should try covering the red carpet. A world unto itself filled with divas, divos, drugs, drag queens, no-shows and mental breakdowns. Naturally, this is before the event has even begun! Every major event has one celeb locked in a bathroom or limo crying, another on the floor of a dressing room passed out drunk, two celebs who can not be in the same room together or they will literally try to kill each other. This is the real Hollywood, not what's on TV or at the Movies. – Chance The Celebrity Guru
I
've been lucky in my career on the carpet. I have had fun, relaxed experiences even with some celebs considered "difficult" to "completely insane". For example Robert DeNiro and Edward Norton, incredible actors, are known for going cold when interviewed. However, I’ve found that the secret to opening them up is in differentiating myself from the garden variety interviewer who asks the same old predictable questions. When I interviewed Edward Norton, instead of asking him about acting, I asked him if he was going on tour with the "Penis Song" that he and Brad Pitt composed on the set of "Fight Club" (check it our on youtube). When E Channel asked me what I do I said "I don't Interview Celebrities, I interview People". When Karolina Kurkova (Victoria's Secret Top Model) walked up to me I asked her how did you celebrate your son's birthday party (which occurred 5 days before). Instantly, she was no longer the $30 million a year model but a loving mom. I challenged Drita of Mob Wives to a fight and she "accidently' elbowed me in the face on camera, pure interview gold. My interviews are spontaneous, but within a framework that comes from extensive preparation. This familiarity of who they really are puts even the most reluctant subject at ease and they feel an instant bond. This has helped me in talking to everyone from Karl Lagerfeld, the reverend Al Sharpton to Wayne Newton, who, kindly, put on tape that my interview was the
best he’s had in fifty years in show business! BTW when I interviewed Al Sharpton we only discussed how great he looks and his new diet and gym routine. Robin Williams is also considered a challenging interviewee because of his manic brilliance. Yet he was one of my all-time favorites! It was one of my proudest moments, as I received such feedback from industry insiders saying that they have never seen an interviewer improv with Williams and keep up! One skill that you must possess if you do Red Carpet interviews is that you have to able to deal with the unexpected. Not too long ago, I was interviewing an A List star of the big screen (who will remain nameless). As I was discussing her newest film, I felt a hand sliding down my the back of my pants ( inside my underwear). True! I kept my cool as the camera rolled and we discussed the craziest rumor she had heard about herself. I was more than a little shocked. Especially since this was a major awards show with hundreds of press and people on the red carpet! Rule #1 never go red-faced on the red carpet – no matter what happens. Running the gauntlet of PR handlers, split personality agents and mega-egos is not always easy, but it is NEVER boring. And there is nothing else that I would rather be doing. Stay tuned as I'm just getting warmed up.
