Renata Petecka of La Dolce Vita Nutrition wants to change the way you eat and she’ll be sharing her food philosophy at Oasis Day Spa Westchester in Dobbs Ferry on Thursday, April 19, from 6 to 7 pm ($40 per guest). Her nutrition program promises to slow down your aging process, detoxify, cleanse, nourish, and beautify you from the inside out—who doesn’t want that? A six-week nutrition series will begin May 3, just in time to get you ready for summer. Sign up at ldvnutrition.com to receive the La Dolce Vita newsletter, full of nutrition tips, recipes, articles, and other cool stuff, and get a complimentary 20-minute one-on-one consultation.

Pity the plight of the beauty blogger: Each week, the newest products appear on her desk, all promising younger-looking skin, tighter pores, plumper lips, lusher lashes, frizz-free hair—in short, a healthier, more glamorous life. Dutifully, Westchester Magazine Associate Editor Katie O’Donnell tests (or investigates) each item or service featured in WM’s Beauty Buzz blog. Life is beautiful indeed.
