La Roche Posay and pickleball match up
Last summer was the first time I played Pickle ball. I was hooked. I finally understood why the sport was sweeping the nation. I kept returning to play that summer on the outdoor courts.

Valerie Lipovetsky spoke candidly about the nose job she got at age 16. Finally after years of not feeling confident with how she looked, she had the solution she sought.
