coverart Put Your Best Face Forward
t’s not always easy to put one’s best face forward, but Bella Donna Massage is prepared to make it just another item on the to-do lists of women across the Triad.
Donna Hollis, owner of Bella Donna Massage, is offering the Belaví Facelift Massage, designed to stimulate underlying layers of skin, thereby reducing wrinkles and lines. The massage can achieve effects similar to a surgical facelift, but it is safer and more affordable than surgery. Also, there are no incisions, bandages or recovery time. The facelift massage takes only an hour and a half and allows customers to feel
relaxed and luxurious. The session begins with an intensive facial cleansing, then scented oils and lotions are massaged into the face. The face is toned with herbal mists and relaxed with a ‘honeylift masque.’ Later, warm towels are wrapped around the customer’s face and head. At the end of the treatment, the scalp, neck, back, hands and feet are massaged,
leaving customers with a wonderful feeling of complete relaxation. Because facial muscles have “memory,” the muscles begin to tighten and stay
firmed after a few treatments. This constant lift and tightening effect gives the ap- pearance that the face is less wrinkled and healthier.
Bella Donna Massage is located in Kernersville on 418 West Mountain Street in the Central Park Complex. For more information, call 336-993-1547.

visiting relatives in Utah. During my stay, I visited Yellowstone and made photos with a small Kodak instamatic that used 126 film. I also visited the southern Can- yonlands of Utah, where my uncle took photos using his 35mm camera. While viewing the various pictures once back home, it was easy to see the difference in quality between those taken with the 35mm and the ones I took. This inspired me to begin a hobby in photography. Since growing up in the foothills of
A
NC I really enjoyed nature, camping and hiking. So, now as an amateur photogra- pher, I spent my free time outdoors while working in the food service industry. After 6 years of working toward becoming a chef, I decided to pursue photography as a profession. In 1991, I received a commercial
photography degree from Randolph Community College in Asheboro, NC. As a professional photographer for 13 years, I have worked in furniture and commercial studios—most recently as a digital photographer at one of the larg- est furniture studios in High Point. As a staff photographer, I worked with clients photographing small products, off-model apparel, hardware supplies, home fur- nishings and furniture. Most was for na- tional and regional advertising—catalogs, brochures, pamphlets, etc. With a recent employer layoff, I am
now exploring the possibility of starting a photography business. Has the hobby come full circle? Maybe. But for now I'm just taking some time to enjoy the wonder of the outdoors again and have fun with my photography. I can be reached at 336-545-8821 or
