Lighten Up – A new way to improve skin without surgery

We’ve all heard of facials, masks and treatments that claim to instantly improve your skin.  Some of them work wonders, but others are all talk. Here’s a new one to add to your list of those that walk the work:  LED Photo rejuvenation.

Always willing to be a guinea pig in the name of beauty.  I gave it a try earlier this year at Nordstrom’s Osmotics counters (www.osmotics.com). Tucked back in the far corner of the cosmetics department, there’s a small nook with a plush reclining table and a futuristic-looking unit....

The Treatment uses LED (light emitting diode) in combination with specially formulated gels and creams to firm the skin and improve circulation, pigment and texture.  After 30 minutes of having luxurious creams massaged into my skin with a pulsating LED want, I felt relaxed and looked refreshed. 

Photo rejuvenation is said to benefit not just those looking to reduce lines, but people who suffer from acne, rosacea and other irritations by destroying bacteria and calming the skin.

Beauty and Grooming: Quick Beauty Fixes, By Monica Wyssling – What can you do to salvage your skin and locks after moisture draining long-haul flight and havoc inducing nights of excess?

...Remember to always finish off your skin care regime with a good SPF.  One of my savings graces when it comes to beauty products is Osmotics Age Prevention Protection Extreme SPF 40.  It works as both an anti-aging moisturizer and a sun block.  Why have a well moisturized epidermis if you’re going to damage e it with harmful sun rays!

Beauty Basics By Francine Porter

It happens every year – we eat too much, spend too much, and see too much of our in-laws.  Holiday excess is just a natural part of the season but there are some parts of our lives where this just won’t do.  Having an extra mug of fully loaded eggnog is one thing, but showing up to the party with more sparkles on your face than on your Christmas tree angel is simply appalling.

The Product: Osmotics Follicle Nutrient System (FNS)
 
The Promise: This three-step system – antiaging shampoo, conditioner and serum – claims to “promote thicker, healthier hear with strength body and shine.” After four to six weeks of consistent application, 96 percent of the company’s test subjects reported a complete cessation of hair loss.
 
The Result: “For as long as I can remember, my hair has always been incredibly fine,” says Rebecca Morton, 28. But after a two-week trial with FNS, she found her hair to be significantly thicker. “My hair had more body and a lot of boost at the roots without using any styling products,” she says.

The Bottom Line: In addition to imparting a satisfying scalp tingle, the system produced more voluminous hair in just two weeks.
 


Glamour - March 2008

Ooh, That's a Toughie!
Q-Are lash-growing products safe?
 
A-Generally, yes. The FDA did recently pull one potions off the market because it contained a prescription glaucoma drug ingredient---one not approved for cosmetic use. Many lash-growers still contain a similar ingredient, says New York City ophthalmologist Barry Chaiken, M.D., but most doctors believe they pose no medical threat. However, there is one freaky factor: Glaucoma drugs sometimes change patients' eye color, so these products could theoretically do the same. I'm sticking with Osmotics FNS Nutrilash which gets great reviews and has natural stuff like amino acids in it.

Beauty Find – The Sunscreen Chronicles II
In these multitasking days, there’s nothing we love better than a good two-in-one. So rather than slather on one cream to repair our skin and another to protect it, we’ll opt to accomplish both with the Age Prevention Protection Extreme SPF 40 sunscreen by Osmotics. Despite being gentle enough for post-procedure skin, the lightweight formula contains polysaccharides to gently erase fine lines and wrinkles and zinc oxide to absorb harmful solar rays. Now if only it would take us out to dinner and do out taxes, we’d be set.

Barber Poll: "Grooming Notes from around the globe"

Bill Zeitz, vice president of Cole Haan Yarmouth Marine I always have my hair cut by Vaughn Acord at New York’s Bumble & Bumble (212-521-6500) He uses a straight razor instead of scissors and he's a great guy. My wife teases me about my lotions and potions I have more stuff in our bathroom than she does. But if there are products that help maintain your appearance, why not use them? I splurge on La Mer's face serum, which feels great after shaving. Shaving is routine I don’t like much, but Ansell Hawkins general Manager of the Chambers Hotel is introduced me to Ultra Shave Butter by Osmotics. It makes a huge difference. And what a great Name: Shave butter.

Watch Out: Four common Screw-up's

No.3 Bald spots are your fault.
We hear Osmotics’ growing potion, FNS Nutrilash, $38, is also a good bet. If all else fails, there ‘s always brow tattooing, which is less creepy than you think. Just ask for iron-oxide ink rather than carbon, which can give off a slightly bluish hue. And according to permanent make-up artist and registered nurse Barbra Lee Shimoda of Timeless Image Aesthetics Inc., brow tats can even generate regrowth by stimulating Follicles.
