  • I have to start this by saying that I hate needles. Can’t look at them, wince when one gets near me, and my tummy turns into knots when I know I’m about to get stuck with one. That said, I’ve got to tell you about an exciting procedure that’s new to the US, and of <... >

  • Women throughout the world are revered in different ways in various cultures for their beautiful features. While much of it is genetics, beautiful skin can be attributed to the use of centuries old ancient remedies and secrets. Whether you’re dreaming of achieving a soft, milky complexion seen on many Asian women due to their use <... >

  • Notice that witches have disgusting, dry, spotted hands. Beautiful heroines, however, flaunt delicate, flawless skin. Coincidence? We think not. Hands play a critical role in one’s appearance. Think of them as an accessory to your rings and bracelets. No matter how your jewels sparkle, cracked skin is not glamorous. Luckily, we have a hand cream <... >

  • He didn’t leave us skin care aficionados out when creating his latest fragrance and beauty products.

  • As a follow-up to the successful Sublimage cream, Chanel introduces the Sublimage Serum Essential Regenerating Concentrate which contains twice the amount of its key ingredient as the cream. This key ingredient, the Vanilla Planifolia, the precious green fruit of Madagascar possesses potent anti-aging properties. Using its precious oils, the silky lightweight serum promises to combat <... >

  • Years ago, our Grandmothers bought two jars of face cream, one for day, and one for night. I always get a chuckle when I see those images of women from the Lucy and Ethel era sleeping with a thick white mask of goop on their face. And I still don’t get why it was called <... >

  • nutric.jpg
  • The fountain of youth isn’t quite as unattainable as you’d think… The effects winter weather takes on skin can last well into warmer months and lips are usually hit hardest by drier conditions. La Roche-Posay Nutritic Lips combats these harmful elements by nourishing and locking moisture into delicate skin. My own frequently chapped lips instantly <... >

  • I hate this time of year. It gets dark too early, the twinkling holiday lights that made my spirits soar are gone, and it’s cold, just too damn cold. To make matters even worse, my normally dry skin gets even drier and screams for help. It’s a dermal nightmare. And though I might want an <... >

  • Although we hate to admit it, so much so that we’ve added a French disguise to its pronunciation, sometimes we shop at Target (and we can’t wait to see who’s the next Go line designer). There are the low prices and then there’s the recent foray into more upscale beauty brands. With the rise of <... >

  • skin1_emerginc.jpg
  • You know something is good when top spas have their own nickname for it! Aestheticians refer to emerginC’s vitamin C and retinol mask as the perfect “Hot Date Mask;” one that can solve any beauty dilemma. The clay-based mask makes a huge difference even after only one use. Lemon juice brightens skin and vitamin C <... >

  • Instead of over indulging in chocolate, pamper yourself with something precious on Valentine’s Day. No, not with diamond studded gold earrings or pearl pendants – that’s for guys to worry about – instead, treat your skin with products containing ingredients fit for a queen. Science weary beauty junkies should note that although conclusive research is <... >

  • drem1-emu-oil.jpg
  • For some of you, admit it: you’re partly exhausted by your unrelenting search (and hope) that there’s some kind of topical lotion or cream that’ll actually live up to its claims. Dremu is a company that uses triple-refined pure emu oil in all of its products, and it’s that refining process that distinguishes it above <... >

  • pores.jpg
  • They said it couldn’t be done. Aw hell, I’ve got to admit it; even I told you it couldn’t be done. That is…you just can’t shrink your pores. Despite all the claims by cosmeceutical manufacturers, our best hope was keeping them as clean as possible, and therefore less noticeable, and then using a product that <... >

  • A most exciting premier from Dior…and no, it’s not what you think it is. Even more exciting than the latest Dior handbag is Capture R60/80 XP. This groundbreaking new skin care system is the result of years of stem cell research commissioned by LVMH at the University of Modena, Italy. This research shows amazing hopes <... >

  • Riding public transportation has become an eye opening experience for me. While researching for this story, I became acutely aware that women in New York are in desperate need of some TLC in the eye area if they want to get their peepers to sparkle again. Some started their morning commute with under eye puff <... >
