Joe Pesci Mansion in New Jersey

Joe Pesci Got Exactly What He Wanted: $6.5 Million!

Location: New Jersey, USA

Joe Pesci was a clear winner during the Jersey Shore recent real estate boom. Now that New Yorkers are flooding the New Jersey real estate market and snapping up everything in sight, Pesci’s waterfront home sold for his original 2019 asking price of $6.5 million, making it the highest-priced sale in the area.

A native of Newark, New Jersey, Pesci originally listed the home in 2019 after deciding to relocate to California to live among his peers. Having purchased the home in 1994 for $850,000, he will be walking away from the sale a happy man, with even deeper pockets.

Located on the seven-mile-long barrier island in the Lavallette section of the Shore, the 7,200-square-foot home is one of the few with a waterfront pool and spa on the expansive deck overlooking the water and its private pier. Designed in Art Deco style, rooms are unusually spacious, light and airy.

The eight-bedroom, eight-bath home has an open floor plan with rooms sized for large parties that can spill out to the spacious pool terrace at the water’s edge. The gated property is completely fenced with a large motor court that can accommodate multiple guest cars as well as a two-car garage for the owner.

Upon entering, a dramatic free-standing curved staircase sets the stage for the living areas. With white rooms filled with light and the backdrop of the bay through floor-to-ceiling windows, the living room with its two seating areas and pianos hint at musical get-togethers. The large eat-in kitchen with island is perfect for preparing or catering large meals for dinner guests in the dining room, encircled by glass doors opening to the pool terrace and bay.

The comfortable media room’s walls are decorated with posters from Pesci’s films and, because his first job was as a barber, a barber’s chair occupies one corner of the room as a poignant reminder. The upper level, which can also be reached by elevator, contains bedrooms and an office, all with upper terraces and spectacular views. A downstairs party room next to the pool and spa has its own kitchen for casual entertaining.

One of the most versatile actors of our time, Pesci has the ability to horrify moviegoers such as the role as mobster Nicky Santoro in Casino and his Academy Award-winning performance as the deranged gangster Tommy DeVito in Goodfellas, to the gut-busting hilarity of Vinny in the film My Cousin Vinny and an inept burglar in Home Alone.

The Pesci listing was held and sold by Michael Puccio of RE/MAX Central, North Manalapan, New Jersey.

Kem trị nám image và địa chỉ cung cấp uy tín

Khuôn mặt bạn hiện hữu những tảng nám thâm, xanh, đỏ… khiến bạn vô cùng tự ti và không dám đối diện với mọi người. Hãy để kem trị nám Image đánh bay mọi rào cản của nám. Giúp bạn tự tin sở hữu làn da trắng sáng và trẻ trung ngày hôm nay.

Nám da – nỗi khổ tâm của chị em phụ nữ

Nám da tuy là vấn đề liên quan đến sắc tố da và không ảnh hưởng đến sức khỏe con người. Tuy nhiên, việc khuôn mặt bạn hiện hữu những tảng nám thâm, xanh, đỏ sẽ rất mất thẩm mỹ, ảnh hưởng đến tâm lý của người mắc phải. Nếu nám xuất hiện trên mặt với diện tích rộng và lâu ngày không điều trị có thể dẫn tới buồn rầu, mặc cảm, tự ti khi giao tiếp đối với bạn.

Theo nghiên cứu, có rất nhiều nguyên nhân dẫn đến nám da như: do tuổi tác,do rối loạn nội tiết tố trong cơ thể, do yếu tố di truyền, do khí hậu môi trường sống, tia UV – dẫn đến việc sản sinh hắc tố melanin một cách bất thường khiến làn da bị nám. Và để khắc phục hiệu quả tình trạng nám da, chúng ta cần lên kế hoạch chăm sóc da chuyên sâu và tìm cho làn da dòng kem đặc trị nám để nhanh chóng lấy lại làn da sáng mịn nhưng vẫn đảm bảo mức độ an toàn tuyệt đối.

Một trong những phương pháp trị nám vô cùng an toàn và hiệu quả đó chính là sử dụng kem trị nám. Và dòng kem đặc trị nám tốt nhất hiện nay không thể không kể đến Serum trị nám Image – thương hiệu hàng đầu tại Mỹ – Image Skincare.

Trị nám da bằng kem trị nám Image có thực sự hiệu quả?

Retinol: loại bỏ nhẹ nhàng lớp da khô sần, xỉn màu. Kích thích sản sinh tế bào mới giúp làn da trở nên mịn màng, săn chắc và sáng khỏe hơn.

Kojic acid: giúp ngăn chặn việc sản xuất melanin trong da, ngăn quá trình tăng sắc tố trở lại, hiệu quả trị nám được bền lâu hơn.

Sử dụng kem trị nám Image như thế nào để mang lại hiệu quả tốt nhất?

Nếu bạn còn đang phân vân liệu sử dụng kem trị nám Image có thực sự hết nám không? thì câu trả lời là hoàn toàn có thể nếu sử dụng đúng cách, đúng quy trình. Kem trị nám Image  có phát huy được công dụng một cách tối đa hay không còn phụ thuộc vào tình trạng và cơ địa của mỗi người nữa đấy. Do đó, hãy tìm hiểu thật kỹ hướng dẫn sử dụng và những lưu ý dưới đây để việc trị nám của bạn dễ dàng và hiệu quả hơn nhé!

Hướng dẫn sử dụng

Đầu tiên bạn rửa mặt sạch và lau khô, sử dụng toner dưỡng ẩm cho da trước khi sử dụng kem đặc trị. Sau đó lấy 1 lượng kem vừa đủ thoa lên vùng da bị nám, vỗ nhẹ và massage cho dưỡng chất thấm sâu. Khi đã quen sản phẩm, có thể sử dụng lượng kem nhiều hơn.

Cuối cùng bạn chỉ cần lên giường và đi ngủ sớm thôi nè. Trong tuần đầu có thể có cảm giác ngứa nhẹ, da đỏ và hơi bong, đừng lo lắng vì đó là dấu hiệu cho thấy kem trị nám Image đã bắt đầu phát huy tác dụng.

Lưu ý trong quá trình sử dụng

Bắt buộc sử dụng kem chống nắng để hạn chế tối đa tác động từ ánh nắng mặt trời trong quá trình sử dụng sản phẩm. Sử dụng kem mỗi 2h một lần ngay cả khi bạn không ra ngoài thường xuyên nhé.

Sử dụng 3 lần/tuần trong tuần đầu tiên và tuần cuối cùng trước khi ngưng sử dụng sản phẩm để da thích ứng dần.

Sử dụng 1 liệu trình tối thiểu là 3 tháng, nếu muốn sử dụng tiếp thì cần ngưng 3 tháng sau đó mới được sử dụng lại.

Tuyệt đối không sử dụng sản phẩm khi mang thai và đang cho con bú.

Gloria Swanson’s New Jersey Mansion Sells For Peanuts!

Location: Englewood, New Jersey, USA

Gloria Crest Mansion

Source: www.toptenrealestatedeals.com

Well…not exactly peanuts, but perhaps the deal of the year! An Englewood, New Jersey mansion that was built for Polish royalty and was once owned by Joseph Kennedy, patriarch of the Kennedy clan, who gifted it to his mistress, silent-film-star Gloria Swanson, has sold for $4.6 million, or about 88% under its original asking price of $39 million.

Gloria Crest, surprisingly named for the location and not Gloria Swanson, was built in 1926 by Count Stefan Poniatowski, who claimed to be the heir to Polish royalty. The count had made millions in the silk industry and built the mansion as a testament to his wealth. His wife, Edythe, landscaped the walled five acres with exotic gardens which still contain rare horticultural examples today. When the stock market crashed in 1929, the count sold the villa to Kennedy, who turned around and gifted it to Ms. Swanson.

Designed to resemble an Italian villa in the Renaissance Revival style encompassing 24,000 square feet on five acres of land, the home stood out in the well-to-do community and was often referred to as the White House of Englewood.

The mansion was originally priced at $39 million in 2013 before a series of price reductions to $9.9 million and the final price of $4.6 million. Although somewhat dated along with high property taxes of $168,000 per year and a complicated corporate ownership, the home has a lot going for it including a pool, pool house and aviary, stream, lake, waterfall, island and pavilion.

The interior contains eight bedrooms, fourteen bathrooms, banquet-sized formal rooms, music bar room, den, library, chef’s kitchen, elevator, seven-car garage, greenhouse, staff quarters, gym, grotto, steam, spa, media room, and wine cellar. The three-room master suite has a sitting area and fireplace, a bath with marble soaking tub and separate shower. Additional amenities include a home theater, private gym, and a home office.

With its prestige and proximity to Manhattan, Englewood has been home to authors Upton Sinclair and Anne Morrow Lindbergh, actor-and-musician David Cassidy, Forbes publisher Malcolm Forbes and actresses Sara Jessica Parker and Brooke Shields.

The selling agent is Michelle Pais from Signature Realty in Westfield, New Jersey.

Adam Jones Selling Massive Maryland Estate He Bought from Cal Ripken Jr.

Rob Carr/Getty Images

Outfielder Adam Jones has spread his wings and flown away from the Baltimore Orioles. As a result, he’s placed his estate in Reisterstown, MD, on the market for $3.995 million. 

The sprawling 24-acre property with a 21,890-square-foot main house was previously the property of Hall of Fame shortstop Cal Ripken Jr. Jones emerged as the winning bidder for the massive estate in an auction just last year.

Ripken had originally placed the compound on the market for $12.5 million in 2016. Striking out on a sale, the Hall of Famer placed the home in a no-reserve auction, where fellow big leaguer Jones picked it up for a reported $3.465 million. 

And that wasn’t the only real estate move Jones made last year. Shortly after winning Ripken’s regal spread, the 33-year-old placed his suburban Maryland mansion in on the market for a hefty $2.7 million. That property is now off market, and Jones is still listed as the owner.

Now that the Ripken estate finds itself available again, perhaps some other Orioles may flock to take a look at the home. It’s built for a major-league ballplayer.

Adam Jones lists estate on over 24 acres.

Ripken purchased the land in 1984, built the home in 1987, and renovated it in the late 1990s. The layout features plenty of perks a big leaguer would appreciate. 

The gated estate offers an attached sports complex with an indoor basketball court, gym, locker room, and batting cage, as well as a hydrotherapy and shower room. 

The grounds include a large pond, a pool with spa and poolhouse, and two garages. Plus, fans of the national pastime will appreciate the regulation baseball diamond that completes the offering.

Indoors, the layout includes six bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, with gathering and entertainment rooms, a chef’s kitchen, and a main-level master suite with two dressing rooms and two master baths. Guests or family members can easily be invited to stay, given that there are five more bedroom suites, two with full kitchens and separate entries. Entertainment features on the lower level include a home theater, a bar, and a media room.

As great as this property sounds, it was destined to sit empty after Jones signed a one-year contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks. His desert migration has led to his attempt to do a quick flip of the home after owning it for less than a year.

Previously, the San Diego native played with the Orioles from 2008-2018. The five-time All Star has earned four Gold Gloves and a Silver Slugger Award.

Karen Hubble Bisbee holds the listing.

Self-Care: the Most Neglected Item on our Checklists

How does fashion, beauty, skincare, hair, and fitness routines help your mental health, confidence, and more?

Image by Kat Jayne from Pexels

A glance at a notebook, laptop, or smartphone often reveals the daily checklists that are formulated to organize our lives. Panic can strike at any moment causing one to erase or cross out items that are deemed “less important,” as one observes time accelerating by. In this process, self-care routines, including fashion, skincare, beauty, haircare, and fitness rituals, are usually the first things to go. According to the People magazine article, “2020 Made Americans Even More Excited to Practice Self-Care, According to a Survey,”self-care routines made up “only…65 minutes per week” of “the average person (‘s)” life, which amounts to less than one percent of a seven-day period. These activities can play valuable roles in our health, self-esteem, mindset, and productivity level. These benefits may explain why Amanda Pauley, noted in Professional Beauty magazine, during January 2021, that the term ‘“self-care routine”’ was a significantly researched item on Google, resulting in a “250%” uptick “since the first lockdown in March 2020.”

Self-care is one aspect of our lifestyles that is often taken for granted and ignored in favor of accomplishing more goals in a day. Yet, ironically, regimens that relate to self-care can help us build our confidence, relieve anxiety and depression, improve our mood and quality of life, including productivity. For example, fitness, one subcategory of self-care has been shown to improve mental health, according to The Lancet article, “Exercise Linked to Improved Mental Health, but More may not Always be Better.” The Lancet states that “A study” which consisted of “1.2 million” Americans revealed exercisers as “having 1.5 fewer days of poor mental health a month,” versus non-exercisers.

The mental health benefits of skincare, another self-care activity, were explored in the article “It’s Official. Science Says Having a 3-Step Skincare Routine Can Decrease Stress,” by Amy Lawrenson. According to Lawrenson, a study on patients who battle acne, conducted by Kathy Fields and Katie Rodan MD, and printed in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, found that there was a decrease in “cortisol levels,” which relates to stress, amongst the participants who took on “a three-step skincare regimen twice a day,” during a two-month period. With these findings in mind, maybe we need to stop cutting these regimens from our daily checklists and prioritize them, especially during the trying circumstances of the current pandemic.

Jewellee Williams, an esthetician, and owner of Crown Jewel Esthetics wearing her company’s logo t-shirt at the time addresses these common circumstances stating, “Everywhere else in the world values self-care,” and proceeds to note that in the United States full work schedules are placed as a higher priority instead. Jewellee goes on to share an unfortunate truth, which is that “people” in this country may be called “selfish” if they take time out for these rituals. Her astute observation could explain the small percentage of the time, less than one percent, as previously noted, that “…the average person…,” spent on such activities, detailed by People. On a positive note, however, People also mentions that there is now increased awareness of the importance of self-care, and its positive implications, since the pandemic.

“Everywhere else in the world values self-care.”

 - Jewellee Williams

Self-care-related activities are beneficial to one’s emotions and mental health. Ettore Mastroddi, a silver-grey-haired master stylist at the Rittenhouse Spa and Salon in Philadelphia, notes that the absence of such services, during the pandemic, impacts clients on an emotional level. As a result, his home salon is the means by which he was and still is, able to help lift their spirits and offer them these services, outside of his main workplace. Kree Willyumz, one of the owners of The Journi, personal styling, and concierge service, notes that he and his business partner and brother Keith Reed Jr., see the renewal of “hope” within their clients daily as they resume self-care-related activities.

“There is a rule if they come to my salon and I treat their hair, I say ‘Don’t disappoint me and go home.” - Ettoire Mastroddi

Regarding specific scenarios in which self-care can have an emotional impact, Hope Dolchin Nagy, a certified professional in the field of personal training and owner of MotivateHopeStrength.com, relays her experience stating “On a personal level, fitness (one form of self-care) became so important to me on so many levels. I have used the gym as an escape when life has thrown some mad times at me. Too many...a bad marriage, bad divorce, a surprise heart defect, and open-heart surgery, and most recently breast cancer.” Nagy notes that these activities have assisted in her ability to bounce back from setbacks and mentally navigate through her breast cancer diagnosis.

Routines of this nature also can impact one’s confidence level. While self-care services have obvious aesthetic benefits, their impact goes beyond the surface. A client named Kate* explains, in regard to this topic, “If I like the way I look it helps the way I feel.” Another client named Patrice DeMoss notes that she feels “Confident, self-assured, (and) ready to start the day” after receiving self-care services. People notes that within a surveyed group, “64%” felt more confident after they began to participate in “…self-care…” regimens.

Patrice Williams, a makeup artist, licensed esthetician, and owner of MU8, was drawn into the beauty and skincare industries because of their ability to uplift others. Regarding the mental health, confidence level, and other lifestyle benefits of self-care, Patrice Williams remarks, “I think that at times, you have to, especially if you haven’t felt good in a while, sometimes you have to look good to feel good. All of those things, fashion, skincare, and fitness, are all very visual or aesthetic things to participate in, but they have such a huge return internally.” Overall, she expressed that when one feels that they look good, often this can enhance their confidence in other situations, such as a job interview, and help them to exude it to others around them.

As one’s confidence level raises, during the regimens of self-care, this can have broader implications attached. Patrice Williams notes that activities such as fitness can demonstrate to you that you can overcome obstacles, first on a workout level, but then within other aspects of your life, as a result. Another client named Cynthia* states, “Practicing solid fitness and nutrition habits allow me to feel strong, healthy, and focused.” Cynthia notes that, overall, “Carving out time for self-care makes” her “feel productive.”

Kate’s personal trainer and “long-time friend” Nagy, encourages her to get “out of” her “comfort zone” and realize “the importance of hard work, basic nutrition, and strength.” Reed, who is wearing a powder blue suit that has three-quarter length sleeves, that are cuffed back to reveal a grid print, paired with a palm leaf-like printed blue and button-down, asymmetrical black glasses, and a brown silk pocket square, expressed a similar sentiment, although in this case about style. Reed states, “I love fashion because it makes me understand, elevate, and evolve into the person that I know that I am.”

However, in order to experience these benefits, one needs to make these activities count. Mastroddi notes, “There is a rule if they come to my salon and I treat their hair, I say ‘Don’t disappoint me and go home.’” He notes that he encourages them to go somewhere and enjoy the benefits of this self-care, in this case, haircare, routine, and states that he tells them “‘Flaunt your look today because you look amazing. I don’t want to hear you went home and took care of the kids. Take 30 minutes for yourself.’” He then adds, “You need those little moments for yourself.” Jewellee Williams and Mastroddi try to encourage their clients to take the moment away from their normal stresses and enjoy the experience of the services.

It’s a fact, there is no substitute for mental health services. Self-care activities, however, can benefit one’s life by enhancing one’s quality of life, confidence, mood, outlook, and propel one to conquer other tasks, as a result. These routines go beyond aesthetics and allow people to decrease their anxiety and feel capable of tackling tasks and challenges in a more confident position. While the self-care professionals all acknowledge that their services are brief, they all hope that their clients experience long-term positive effects, in conjunction with the short-term benefits.
