Your Fall Glow-Up: Two Drinks for Hydrated, Plump-Looking Skin

Cooler weather can leave skin looking dull and feeling dry. Pique’s Radiant Skin Duo brings a beauty upgrade to your fall routine: two delicious daily drinks that support hydrated, plump, luminous-looking skin from within.


Start with creamy, organic Sun Goddess Matcha, packed with antioxidants that support healthy-looking skin. Then sip BΒ·T Fountain, a refreshing beauty electrolyte combining clinically studied ceramides, hyaluronic acid and electrolytes to support hydration and a dewy glow.


The beauty benefits come with impressive clinical evidence. In a clinical trial of BΒ·T Fountain’s ceramides, skin hydration improved 25% by day 15. By day 60, hydration improved 37%, elasticity improved 36% and wrinkle depth decreased 8.2%.
Morning matcha. Afternoon beauty hydration. An easy ritual that fits into busy fall days while supporting skin that looks smoother and feels replenished. Your favorite daily drinks become a simple skincare habit worth keep

πŸ›£οΈ 147 Miles of Smoother Roads

Image by City of Colorado Springs

Noticed fewer potholes on your drive lately? You're not imagining it! The City of Colorado Springs is wrapping up its 2026 paving season with 147 lane miles of fresh pavement across 119 stretches of road, from parts of S Circle Dr, Union Blvd and Palmer Park to plenty of neighborhood streets.

It's all part of the voter-approved 2C Road Improvement Program, which fixes streets before they crumble so our tax dollars go further. Curious whether your street made the list? The city's 2C page shows what's been done and what's coming next.

🧳 Need to get away?

Trade the daily grind for the crisp, alpine peaks of Breckenridge or the sunset-soaked charm of Santa Fe. Check availability and book your stay now!

πŸ₯˜ Dump and Bake Chicken, Rice & Broccoli Casserole

Cheesy chicken, rice and broccoli casserole fresh from the oven

Photo: Out of This World Desserts

Some nights, even chopping an onion feels like too much. This one's for you! Uncooked rice, raw chicken, frozen broccoli and a creamy sauce all go into one dish, no chopping and no pre-cooking. The rice soaks up the broth as it bakes, then a blanket of melty cheddar goes on top at the end. Just dump it, cover it and go put your feet up.

Want more easy ideas? This is the first of 15 dump and bake dinners on the page, so keep scrolling!
