Hello Gorgeous! Oh summer is on!I have recently been introduced to this line of skincare, CeraVe and it's packed with humectants and emollients for the skin. I have really enjoyed my samples because between training in the hot Arizona sun for my next triathlon and my son's busy sports schedule, let's just say my skin is like jerky! The CeraVe is light in scent and rinses clean and just feels good. CeraVe contains a patented delivery technology called MVE. Not quite sure what that is-but I know it feels good and my whole family likes it. The Cosmetics Cop Paula Begoun recommends this product-if it's passing her sniff test, surely it will pass yours too! Here's a short video from CeraVe and get yours at CVS stores everywhere. The CeraVe website has a zip code store locator so you can get some right away!

In 2006, Erika Lane Frantzve founded a 501(c)(3) charitable organization named Everyday Heroes Like You, which is a group that assists other nonprofits across the country. Erika and her partners are constantly finding ways to promote and celebrate the “everyday heroes” in communities nationwide. The organization hosts numerous events to support groups like the Sojourner Center, Packages From Home, the USO, Border Patrol Foundation, Arizona Humane Society, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Boys & Girls Club, UMOM, and Big Brothers Big Sisters.

For the past two years, Erika has focused on supporting the military. Erika has a background in political science and has worked with numerous high-ranking military officials. Erika also created two outgrowths of Everyday Heroes Like You: Johnny’s Locker and PAWS for a CAUSE. These programs allow Erika to work with The Fisher House and the VA Medical Center in Washington, D.C. She looks forward to opening the third Johnny’s Locker this summer at The Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Erika’s number one love, aside from philanthropic work, is sports. She played women’s basketball at Regis University, and she enjoys volleyball, golf, and track. Erika also modeled and acted in Los Angeles, Denver and Arizona. In May, Erika will proudly graduate summa cum laude from Arizona State University with a dual degree in political science and international relations.

Hello Gorgeous and fellow pageant watchers! This season-the competition is high in the Miss USA pageant with some of the most qualified ladies that have been on stage in seasons!

To get stage ready-you have got to have a tan! Not the old fashioned lay out by the pool and get stripes to go with your slightly red tan, but a smooth even bronzed tan.

Miss North Dakota Jaci Stofferahn uses Pageant Perfect sunless tanning mist. I have used it myself and it works for achieving a smooth, streakless bronze glow. I love it!

Remember to tune in to your local station to watch the new MISS USA be crowned-it just may be Miss North Dakota!

Jaci Stofferahn attended North Dakota State University for two years before transferring to Western Governor's University, where she is now finishing her business marketing degree. Jaci strengthened her academic and career experience by interning for former Senator Byron Dorgan as well as Senator Kent Conrad. She currently works as a dance and fitness instructor at Red River Dance and Performing Company, the only non-profit dance studio in Fargo.

Jaci says she views holding the title of Miss North Dakota USA as an opportunity to extend her charitable work. Her favorite organizations include the Children's Miracle Network, Compassion International, and the National Eating Disorder Association.

Jaci prides herself on being very dedicated to her family. “My family alone makes me one of the luckiest girls in the world. I wouldn't love others the way I do if it were not for the way they love me,” she says. She also says that among other things, her family loves practical jokes and although humiliating in her younger years, they have taught her to have a great sense of humor, laugh at herself, and to fear April Fools Day.
