Everything Looked Fine A Year After Stopping Propecia — A Year After That, It Was Bad

May 21st, 2012 at 06:50pm Under Hair Loss

Hi, 2 questions – first, when I previously used Propecia, 12 months after I quit, my hairline and frontal region, my areas of concern, didn’t look or feel different. 24 months after quitting, it looks much worse…I thought all hair is lost 12 months post quitting, does this mean that my recent loss is unrelated to quitting the medication? Second, I am thinking of getting back on Propecia for the hairline, I am a NW 3, just looking to get back some of the loss in the last 12 months, is this doable? Thanks! It’s interesting that the Propecia held for a year… or at least, the hair stayed for a year after discontinuing the medication. That is unusual. I suspect that hair loss was really a start-up of a new hair loss process, but I really do not know or have any way to know for sure. You can restart the Propecia and see what happens. Usually there will be some benefits, but the full benefit you originally got will probably not occur the second time around. Talk to your prescribing doctor.

What We’re Sweet On: The Gloss That Looks Good on Everyone

May 21st, 2012 at 05:32pm Under Personal Care+ Products

Some lip glosses are so waxy, your lips feel as if they’re suffocating, while others are so shiny, they practically blind the person standing next to you. Such is not the case with Intelligent Nutrients’ Lip Delivery Antioxidant Gloss in Pink Hibiscus ($24). Free of synthetic waxes and oils (and fragrance and colorants), the subtly tinted gloss lends just a hint of sheen to the lips. And the touch-of-pink hue is the perfect shade to reach for when you want a more minimalistic makeup look – or when you want low-key lips to complement an intensely heavy smoky eye. Certified organic, Lip Delivery is loaded with antioxidant-rich cranberries, purple corn, and blueberries. Beeswax, carnauba wax, and cocoa butter ingredients moisturize, while shea butter lends a bit of natural protection from the sun’s UV rays. A built-in brush makes application all the more smooth, but perhaps the biggest treat is its sweet and tart flavor, a blend of caramel, vanilla, raspberry, agave, and coconut. You’ll keep going back to this smooth operator again and again.

Read the rest — Further Analysis Reveals Double Digit Hair Growth in RepliCel’s First-in-man Clinical Trial These are updated results that were announced, but the release goes on to say that the trials will be continuing into August 2013, with results to be announced by the end that year.

The Makeup Tool That Will Change the Way You Apply Mascara

May 21st, 2012 at 01:02pm Under Personal Care

You could argue that the eyes are the most important part of the face (windows to the soul and all that). For a makeup artist, never has a sentiment rang more true. The eyes are a canvas for many creative colors and techniques, but the last thing you want to do is taint your carefully applied shadows and liners with spidery or clumpy lashes. Floriane David of Make Up For Ever Academy admits that one of the worst mascara faux pas is the floating lash look (this issue is especially rampant among blondes). She recommends using a fan brush to get right to the root of your problem. First, apply mascara onto the fan brush and then paint onto the lashes. You can also use a shaking motion (with your mascara wand or fan brush) to make sure you are getting the base of your lashes coated. And that’s how you shake things up.

May 21st, 2012 at 12:04pm Under Personal Care

The majority of people have, at one time or another, bitten their nails. And as anyone who’s gotten caught in a cycle of biting can tell you, it can be painfully difficult to stop. Like food cravings or a nervous tic, the longer you hold off, the more anxious and distracted you get. It takes time to develop an alternate outlet for your nervous energy, and in the interim, going cold turkey rarely works. So what’s a dyed-in-the-wool biter to do? Just keep reading.

What’s Your Sign, Beautiful? Gemini (May 21 to June 20)

May 21st, 2012 at 10:32am Under Personal Care+ Products

Gemini isn’t just one of the funnest roller coasters ever (Cedar Point for the win), but it also happens to be the third sign of the zodiac. Personality-wise, Geminis are known for their sharp wit and curious natures. And seeing that they’re the sign of the twins, Geminis are therefore known for being dual-natured and complex. Think versatility and the ability to change direction to adapt to a wide array of situations. At their worst, Geminis are tense and moody, and at their best, they’re lively and charismatic. Famous Geminis include: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (naturally), Angelina Jolie , Venus Williams, Zoe Saldana , Courteney Cox , Heidi Klum , Natalie Portman , Ginnifer Goodwin , and Carey Mulligan . To bring out your inner Gemini beauty : Deck yourself out in colors that are just as bold and bright as you, such as orange and yellow. Your focus area is your hands and arms, so try a fun polish or an oversized perfume ring as an accent. And don’t be afraid to create a few paradoxes, pairing the bold with the tame and the muted with the vibrant. To find out more about the Gemini-themed products above, just keep reading.

Key Skin Care Products Every Woman Should Own

May 20th, 2012 at 12:10pm Under Personal Care+ Products+ Skin Care

A trip to the skin care aisle can be a dizzying experience, but it doesn’t have to be so complicated. And while it’s obviously important to make sunscreen a part of your daily routine, there are a few key items every woman should include on her must-have list, explains Suki Kramer, founder and president of Suki skin care . They are . . . A great exfoliator : “From jump-starting collagen to purifying pores to removing dryness and blemishing to making us feel great because of the immediate way an exfoliator takes care of business, this product is a can’t-live-without product,” Kramer explains. The right moisturizer : “Even if your skin type tends to be normal to oily, using a high-quality moisturizer with good oils on a regular basis can be the key to improving the way your skin functions, looks, and feels,” she adds. A great lip balm : Everybody gets dry, chapped lips at some point or has problems with flaking and/or dryness. A lip repair product will help keep the lips smooth, supple, and kissable. Bonus? It also provides an excellent base for your lipsticks, glosses, and liners, keeping them fresher- and purer-looking all day (or night) long.
