Liposuction Worries Put To Rest
Published on September 27, 2012 by

Luckily, new studies have been conducted to get to the bottom of this issue. “For years, doctors have noticed that those liposuction patients who consume too many calories and don’t exercise enough usually don’t put on tummy weight after abdominal liposuction but, in a year’s time, store new fat in other bodily areas such as the arms, the back or the breasts. Dr. Eric Swanson, a plastic surgeon in Leawood, Kansas decided to put this theory to a test; his results were published in a well-respected […]

Published on November 30, 2011 by
No matter what, I love getting my nails done for me. Receiving any manicure from is better than doing it at home myself. They have way more bottles of nail polish than I do and they actually get it on your nails as opposed to the side of my finger when I try it on my own. But when I heard they were going to give me a “GelColor by OPI” manicure that can last up to two weeks, I scheduled my service right away! With the holidays here, I have little time to get my nails done but I have lots of parties and events to attend so of […]

The Secret to Youth…Collagen
Published on October 27, 2010 by
As we age, our faces lose collagen which causes lines and wrinkles, our bodies also produce a chemical that actually breaks down collagen as well. Collagen is the key to healthy skin that tends to age well. “Collagen is the skin’s structural fiber,” dermatologist Dennis Gross said in the October 2005 issue of O Magazine. “As we get older, it breaks down, creating lines and large pores.” However, using products that contain collagen won’t change a thing, as collagen CAN NOT be absorbed by the skin to replace lost collagen. So what are we supposed to do? There are a million choices in skincare, how does the average person decide […]

Laser vs light devices, Which one works?
Published on September 12, 2010 by
Hello readers, Recently there has been a huge increase in “at home” laser and light devices that make some pretty great claims. One only has to go to Bliss world to view a few, there is the Tria “at home laser hair removal” for around $500, the Nu Lase Light Therapy Anti aging device for around $150 and a slew of others. I’m not stating they don’t work (possibly minimally), however I’m a skeptic… Given the fact that in the State of Connecticut a laser or light device can only be operated by a Nurse Practitioner, Physician’s Assistant, or Registered Nurse under DIRECT supervision of a Physician, I have to […]

You may never go back to your old foundation. Lighter than foundation, tinted moisturizers still cover flaws but feel less “cakey.” While foundations can feel as if they’re melting off your face, tinted moisturizers won’t, most also contain an SPF. I scream you scream, we all scream for Sunscreen While most women know to put sunscreen on their faces, they skip their chests, hands and necks. Who wants […]
