This month’s issue is all about looking good
and feeling your best — even in the sweltering
heat of summer. We’re featuring a luxury lash
and brow boutique in Astoria (page 16) and
one local woman’s natural skincare business
(page 38). We’re also updating you on what’s
new at a Long Island City gym (page 53). You
shared your Instagrams with us where you’re
proud to be you, from post-workout shots to
#nomakeup selfies (page 10).
No money for a summer vacation? Don’t worry;
you can “travel the globe” right here in Queens by
sampling cuisine from all over the world at Astoria
restaurants (page 32). Watch a local chef compete
on Food Network’s “Chopped,” then try some of
his creations at his Greek restaurant in Astoria,
Akrotiri (page 22).
