It’s that time of year, and those annoying fall allergies can be quite bothersome! Are you aware that wearing ACUVUE® TruEye® daily disposable contact lenses can be a real help with allergy irritated and itching eyes?
ACUVUE® TruEye®
Daily Disposable
Contact Lenses
It just makes sense! With daily disposable contact lenses like ACUVUE® TruEye®, you are putting clean brand new contact lenses on your eyes every day! That means there is no cleaning or buildup of “irritants or allergens” that can occur from wearing the same lenses day-to-day. That was always the problem I experienced when I wore contact lenses years ago.
Take a moment to get the full story about ACUVUE® TruEye® contacts
regarding allergies by listening to a very informative Allergy Podcast on Blog Talk Radio with Dr.Val Jones at:
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/healthyvision/2012/04/26/new-healthy-vision-with-dr-val-jones-eye-allergies
ACUVUE® TruEye® contact lenses have so many advanced attributes including “the third generation of HYDRACLEAR® technology that brings the highest volume of moisture-rich wetting agents to TruEye®.”
Contact Lens & Night did a study, and TruEye® “was shown to provide high levels of comfort from morning to night, comparable to wearing no lenses at all!”
Additionally, 1-Day ACUVUE® TruEye® has the “highest level of UV protection in a contact lens!” That’s certainly an essential factor in maintaining healthy eyes!
Here is the complete list of Blog Talk Radio programs that share a number of up to the minute educational podcasts about various topics regarding care for your eyes: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/search?q=healthy-vision
Also, be sure to visit: www.acuvue.com Read more about the TruEye® contacts , trial offers, and discounts on your ACUVUE® TruEye® purchase.
In closing, let me stress the importance of regular visits to your eye care professional. If you wear contact lenses, are considering them for the first time, or after reading all of the amazing features ACUVUE® TruEye® daily disposable lenses have to offer, this may be the perfect opportunity for you to call your eye doctor and make an appointment to try these state-of-the-art contact lenses.

I was introduced to Obagi Medical Products, Inc. through a Plastic Surgery Clinic in the 90’s. Today, Obagi continues to be a well known innovator of very effective products that provide not only a topical improvement to the skin, but with their Obagi Nu-Derm® System, addresses the issue of aging skin at “the cellular level“, resulting in a “renewed healthy skin“.
Al Hummel, Chief Executive Officer at Obagi stated,” Our customers and their patients have been asking for a moisturizer for years; we’re happy to be bringing to market a product that is clinically proven to do what it says it will do! Obagi Hydrate offers both instant and long-lasting hydration and is a great adjunct to any of our other Obagi systems.”
HYDRATE by Obagi Medical products:
OBAGI®
Hydrate
Facial Moisturizer
We consume water daily to keep our bodies hydrated! Our skin needs hydration, as well. With Obagi Hydrate, unlike a lot of moisturizers that just cover the skin to counteract it’s lack of water, an advanced main ingredient in Hydrate called “Hydromanil” takes water, absorbing it into your skin right away, and keeps it there!! This is a result of a process called a “two-in-one” reaction which maintains ongoing moisturizing and water within the skin, as well as top surface hydration on the outer skin’s surface that helps to counteract dehydration (water loss).
Additional active ingredients in Obagi Hydrate that help moisturize and stave off dryness and dehydration include:
• Shea Butter
• Mango Butter
• Avocado &
• Glycerin
Here’s even better news! Quoting from Clinical Trials using Obagi Hydrate, “a 51% improvement in moisture loss after 8 hours and a 92% improvement in the skin’s moisture retention within 2 hours was noted. Obagi Hydrate, after extensive dermatological testing was shown to have no specific clinical reaction proving it to be non-irritating, non-sensitizing, hypoallergenic and noncomedogenic.”
I found that Obagi Hydrate penetrated directly into my skin when I applied it. There was no residue, just a continuous moist hydrated feel. With Obagi’s advanced technical “two-in-one” process, I knew that Hydrate’s ongoing “activity” was working above and below my surface skin and I wouldn’t have to worry about that dehydrated feeling I had often experienced in the past.
All skin types can experience dehydration, and use Obagi Hydrate. As we head into the fall and winter seasons, it would be the perfect time for you to try this terrific hydrating moisturizer.
Priced at $45.00 for 1.7ounces, Obagi Nu-Derm Hydrate can be found at “dermatology, plastic surgery and aesthetic physician’s offices”.

In case you’re looking for any new “it” hair trends, Mario Russo, owner & lead stylist of Salon Mario Russo in Boston, has shared with us a fun variation of the sock bun, which happens to be one of his favorite looks for fall. Appropriately called the “Cinnabun,” this bun is actually more of a hair wrap than a traditional bun. For those of us who have cut up all our socks in hopes of creating a perfectly round sock bun – it’s time to set them aside and embrace the new “it” bun. Even better…unlike its namesake, this Cinnabun is guilt-free!
Below, please find Mario’s step by step tips on creating the Cinnabun as well as his insight on why this look is hot for fall.
Attention lovers of the sock bun – there’s a new style hitting the streets that’s as fun as it is elegant. Ideal for women with mid-length to long hair, the Cinnabun borrows from the symmetry and clean lines of everyone’s favorite indulgent treat in order to create a guilt-free hairstyle that is sure to turn heads. Perfect for a day at work or evening out on the town, this beautifully structured coil can be easily dressed up or dressed down. Want to add an extra something? The addition of a bedazzled thin headband or more casual stretchy headband can quickly change the look and feel of this style, making it adaptable for every occasion.
How to Score the Cinnabun
During the month of October 2013, new U.S. anti-aging serum, MitoQ®, will donate 15% of net proceeds to one of the leading national education and support organizations, the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). NBCF’s mission is to save lives through early detection and to provide mammograms for those in need. This includes increasing awareness through education, providing diagnostic breast care services for those in need, supporting breast cancer research programs, and providing nurturing support services.
MitoQ ($185, MitoQ.com) has been challenging the international skin care industry with a new level of efficacy. The patented ingredient in MitoQ®, mitoquinol, is scientifically proven to penetrate the mitochondria and is 1,000x more potent than CoQ (a molecule used in the world’s best anti-aging products!) It is the only topical cream proven to deliver ingredients deep down to mitochondria at levels shown to have an immense effect in rejuvenating the cells, encouraging the natural production of collagen and elastin and leaving skin looking radiant with a lit-from-within glow.
