This Might Be The World's Best Foundation
Luminous Silk foundation by Armani Beauty is one product in particular that has been suggested to us by several experts, one of whom called it a 'never cakey, lightweight and dewy' foundation that leaves a skin-perfecting, natural-looking finish.
Due to its oil-free and non-comedogenic formulation, several dermatologists along with Vanessa Coppola, a board-certified nurse practitioner and founder of a New Jersey-based medical spa, have previously recommended Luminous Silk to HuffPost as a great foundation option for those who are acne-prone but who don't want the thick and overly mattifying coverage that many blemish-marketed foundations can have.
It has also made the favorites list of multiple makeup artists, including Bobbi Brown Cosmetics artist-in-residence Carola Gonzalez, who previously explained to us that as skin ages, it naturally loses luminosity, becomes more dehydrated and dull and wrinkles become more pronounced. Because of this, Gonzales said that she loves using Luminous Silk on clients with mature skin, as its hydrating and glowy-finish formula has the ability to blur imperfections without settling into fine lines or wrinkles.
Available in 40 shades, this medium-coverage and buildable foundation uses what the brand refers to as 'micro-fil technology' to allow color pigments to lay flat for seamless blending and layering. The long-lasting formula also claims to improve the look of irregular skin texture while maintaining that lit-from-within glow.
But it's not just professional beauty and skin care professionals that Luminous Silk has won over — reviewers love it, too. It's one of the highest rated products on Sephora with an average 4.2-out-of-five-star rating from some 4,248 reviewers. Many self-proclaimed fans of the stuff claim that, despite the high-end price tag, they will 'definitely be repurchasing.' Others said that this foundation gives them the look of coveted 'glass skin' and that it 'feels like butter melting into the skin.'

Get it from Sephora for $69 (available in 38 shades and also in a mini size).

UnitedHealth Group shares climb as Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway discloses stake in the insurer
Shares of UnitedHealth Group are surging before the market open Friday as Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway disclosed that it recently purchased shares of the beleaguered insurer. Berkshire Hathaway bought around 5 million shares of UnitedHealth last quarter, according to a regulatory filing. The stake was valued at about $1.57 billion. Buffett plans to retire as CEO at the end of the year after six decades of building Berkshire Hathaway. Many investors comb through Berkshire's filings every quarter because they like to follow Buffett's moves. The filing doesn't make clear who at Berkshire handled the investment. Besides Buffett, Ted Weschler and Todd Combs also pick stocks, but they generally handle smaller portfolios and Combs also serves as Geico's CEO. Besides stocks, Berkshire owns dozens of companies in a variety of industries including Geico insurance, BNSF railroad, several major utilities and an assortment of manufacturing and retail companies. The Omaha, Nebraska-based company's holdings include many well-known brands like See's Candy and Dairy Queen. UnitedHealth has been dealing with a series of difficulties. Last month the company said that it was cooperating with federal criminal and civil investigations involving its market-leading Medicare business. The health care giant said at the time that it had contacted the Department of Justice after reviewing media reports about investigations into certain elements of its business. Earlier this year, The Wall Street Journal said federal officials had launched a civil fraud investigation into how the company records diagnoses that lead to extra payments for its Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans. Those are privately run versions of the government's Medicare coverage program mostly for people ages 65 and over. The company's UnitedHealthcare business covers more than 8 million people as the nation's largest provider of Medicare Advantage plans. The business has been under pressure in recent quarters due to rising care use and rate cuts. The Journal said in February, citing anonymous sources, that the probe focused on billing practices in recent months. The paper has since said that a federal criminal health care-fraud unit was investigating how the company used doctors and nurses to gather diagnoses that bolster payments. UnitedHealth Group Inc. runs one of the nation's largest health insurance and pharmacy benefits management businesses. It also operates a growing Optum business that provides care and technology support. UnitedHealth's stock has mostly shed value since December, when UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was fatally shot in midtown Manhattan on his way to the company's annual investor meeting. A suspect, Luigi Mangione, has been charged in connection with the shooting. In April, shares plunged some more after the company cut its forecast due to a spike in health care use. A month later, former CEO Andrew Witty resigned, and the company withdrew its forecast entirely, saying that medical costs from new Medicare Advantage members were higher than expected. UnitedHealth's stock jumped more than 12% in premarket trading on Friday. Still, the stock has lost roughly half its value in the past year. Chapman writes for the Associated Press.

Raccoon killed by dog in New Jersey park tests positive for rabies, health officials say
A raccoon that was killed by a dog earlier this week in Delanco, New Jersey, has tested positive for rabies, according to the Burlington County Health Department. The raccoon was killed by a dog near the small dog run area at Pennington Park in Delanco, Burlington County, on Aug. 12. County health officials said the dog then dragged the raccoon through a fence into the dog run. The Burlington County Health Department tested the raccoon's remains for rabies and learned on Aug. 14 that the test came back positive. County health officials said the dog was vaccinated and had received the rabies booster. The dog's owners have also received rabies post-exposure treatment out of an abundance of caution. Due to the rabies exposure, the small dog run at Pennington Park is closed until Aug. 19. The Burlington County Health Department said it is not aware of any other people or pets having been exposed to the raccoon. However, if anyone was scratched or bitten by a raccoon in Pennington Park within the last two weeks, they should seek medical attention and call the county's health department at 609-265-5548. Additionally, anyone who visited the park within the last two weeks and believes their pet came into contact with a raccoon is advised to call the health department and their family veterinarian.

Dougie Hamilton Builds Lasting Bonds Through 'Dougie's Buddies'
The New Jersey Devils shared a heartwarming story about defenseman Dougie Hamilton's friendship with a young cancer survivor named Alex. Alex, who fought and beat cancer in 2022, calls Dougie 'his buddy.' From their first meeting during Alex's treatment to checking in on his hockey progress today, Hamilton has made a point to stay connected. Hamilton first met Alex during his battle and later followed up with a phone call to check in and offer encouragement. It's just one example of the veteran defender's dedication to giving back off the ice. Now entering his fifth year of a seven-year, $63 million contract with the Devils, Hamilton has become a leader both on and off the ice, mentoring teammates and anchoring the blue line, while also making time to impact the local community. Dougie's Buddies Program Hamilton's commitment extends through his personal initiative, Dougie's Buddies, a program launched in partnership with RWJBarnabas Health. According to the team's website, the program offers local youth nominated by community partners an unforgettable Devils experience. Each participant receives tickets to a Devils game, high-five tunnel access, a Dougie's Buddies t-shirt, recognition on the videoboard, and a post-game meet-and-greet with Hamilton himself. 'At RWJBarnabas Health, we believe in the power of community partnerships to inspire and uplift our youth,' said Justin Edelman, Senior Vice President of External Communications & Corporate Partnerships at RWJBarnabas Health. 'Dougie's Buddies is such a meaningful initiative that helps lift the spirits of pediatric patients, Learn to Play participants, and their families. It's truly rewarding to see Dougie Hamilton fully embrace his connection to the community through this program.' Hamilton's Perspective For Hamilton, the experience is just as rewarding: 'It's such a great experience for me,' Hamilton shared with 'You really don't know what to expect each time. They're always different ages of kids and the families are all different. This season we had Learn to Play youth, kids that were just starting out in hockey, but also kids going through some really tough times. I just really enjoy giving these kids a special moment in their day.' Looking Ahead Hamilton and the Devils open the 2025–26 season on October 9th in Carolina, before their home opener on October 16th against the defending champion Florida Panthers.
