Six mature-friendly shades. One mascara that actually stays put.
Most mascaras promise length… then leave you with smudges, flakes, and clumps by lunchtime.
That’s why so many 50+ women are switching to PrimeLash.
It’s a tubing mascara designed for your lashes, wrapping each one to lift, define, and separate...even the ones that might be too small to see.
And when it’s time to take PrimeLash off? It slides right off with warm water. No rubbing or irritation.
From everyday black to soft brown, plus bold shades like Emerald, Burgundy, and Mulberry… there’s a color for every kind of day.
Get longer-looking lashes with zero smudge. Finally.
Explore 13 Beautiful Gardens in Cary in May
Most weekends in Cary fill up fast — and this one is worth planning around. On Saturday, May 30 and Sunday, May 31, 2026, the Cary Garden Tour opens the gates to 13 private and public gardens across Downtown Cary and South Cary. Some of these gardens have not been open to the public in years. If you have ever driven past a beautifully kept yard and wondered what was growing just behind the hedge, this is your chance to find out.
Step inside and you will find far more variety than you might expect. The tour includes pollinator gardens buzzing with life, raised vegetable beds, terraced gardens built into sloping lots, and properties that blend green spaces with solar technology. Some belong to well-known Cary residents. Others have simply kept their gates closed for a long time.
It is a great weekend for gardeners looking for fresh inspiration — especially those still learning what grows best in the Triangle. You can explore both neighborhoods on foot, at your own pace, across the full weekend. Garden stop number 13 is the Page Walker Arts & History Center, which will also feature classic cars — including antiques and Corvettes — plus plein air artists working in the gardens throughout the weekend.
The two organizations behind the tour each have deep roots in this community. The Cary Woman's Club has been serving Cary for 90 years, with projects including the Page-Walker Pollinator Garden and The Carying Place. MOM's Valentine for You delivered more than 800 flower arrangements to lonely and homebound residents in 2026 alone.
"The Cary Garden Tour offers a unique opportunity to see some of the best private gardens in Cary," says Co-Chair Wendy Payne. Co-Chair Marie Martin adds: "We work hard all year just to make sure widows, shut-ins and other lonely people are noticed on Valentine's Day." Every dollar raised is split equally between both nonprofits.
Whether you are a lifelong gardener or just someone who loves being outside on a warm spring day, the Cary Garden Tour is a one-of-a-kind weekend that gives back to the community — one garden at a time.

Hello, London!
Gateway to Royal History and Big City Magic
Welcome to London, UK — a city where ancient castles and modern skyscrapers share the same skyline, where a red double-decker bus might drop you off at a 1,000-year-old palace, and where world-class museums are often completely free to enter.
Best of all, getting here from RDU is a breeze. American Airlines offers daily nonstop flights from Raleigh-Durham International Airport to London's Heathrow Airport (LHR), with a flight time of about 7 hours and 45 minutes.
Whether you're drawn to royal pageantry, iconic landmarks, or the city's legendary food and theater scene, London delivers something unforgettable at every turn.
Why Visit London?
The Tower of London: Few places in the world pack as much history into one address as this fortress on the River Thames. Visitors can explore this historic castle, palace, and former prison — and come face to face with the crown jewels, all while being guided by the Tower's famously witty Beefeaters.
Westminster Abbey: This stunning Gothic church is where British history was literally made. Westminster Abbey has been the site of royal coronations and burials since 1066, and walking through its halls feels like stepping into the pages of a history book — poets, kings, and scientists all rest beneath the same magnificent arches.
The British Museum: Free to enter and endlessly fascinating, the British Museum is one of the greatest collections of human history anywhere on Earth. Visitors can spend hours wandering galleries filled with artifacts spanning centuries of civilization, from ancient Egypt to the Roman Empire — all tucked away in the heart of central London.
