MaMa Lotion Is TLC For Skin

It sure is popular. MaMa Lotion has been the top seller for two years now at skincarerx.com.

What exactly is MaMa Lotion? It is simply an AHA in skin talk, or an alpha hydroxy acid formula. It's main job is to exfoliate and moisturize skin. The 'MaMa' means mandelic acid and malic acid gel.

Many women and men swear by MaMa Lotion. It is formulated to get rid of acne and breakouts, to even skin tone, to tighten skin and pores, to reduce fine lines, and even reduce the symptoms of Rosacea.

MaMa Lotion ($44.50 for 1.67 fl.oz) can be found at internet retail stores like http://www.skincarerx.com/. (See Ad to right of article).

The lotion is actually in the texture of a gel. MaMa is said to be wonderful for all skin types and skin colors. The lotion works like Retin-A, in the sense that it takes a serious attack on damaged skin like wrinkles, acne, and large pores, and is worn as a nighttime treatment, But the makers of MaMa Lotion, MCK Labs, claim that the formula is much easier on the skin than Retin-A. Retin-A can cause redness, swelling, itchiness, and peeling when overused.

When you first apply MaMa Lotion on your face, you will note its sticky texture. And it can sting for the first 40 seconds. But after it is absorbed into the skin, it dries nicely and skin feels very smooth.

Makeup Bags By Anna William

How many makeup or cosmetics bags do you own? And what if I told you, you could design your own makeup bag at http://www.annawilliam.com/.

Look, I've got about five or more makeup bags. A couple are from Victoria's Secret, and the others are from department and drug stores. The cosmetics bags I own are not pretty enough, and certainly, are not roomy enough. I guess I pack a lot of tools. High maintenance. And no, I cannot live without a makeup bag.

Anna William is a home and handbag boutique nestled in the bustling, seaside community of Newburyport, Massachusetts. There, you can design or 'build' your own makeup/cosmetics bag. The family-owned store offers many gorgeous fabrics to choose from. For $39.00, you can design your own large cosmetics bag that comes with a zipper. And for $79.00, you can build your own spacious, travel cosmetics bag.

Both styles offer plenty of room inside, especially for those bigger makeup items.

The large cosmetics bag is 8 1/2" wide x 5 3/4" tall. The travel cosmetics bag measures 11" wide x 8 1/4" tall x 6" deep.

I designed my own makeup bag in the sophisticated 'City Chic Collection,' using black and ivory colors (see photo). How beautiful is that?

For more information, check out annawilliam.com. You'll get lost in all the beautiful fabrics, and end up with a most unique and useful makeup bag.

Rebuild Your Skin With Copper Peptides

Is There Hope In A Bottle? Can Copper Peptides Promote Better Skin?

Dr. Loren Pickart strongly believes so. His special line of skin and hair products don’t come wrapped in fancy boxes with aggressive marketing campaigns. Instead, his line of Skin Biology products arrive with sensible packaging, smart scientific knowledge, and reasonable pricing.

Who is Dr. Pickart? A biochemist and a brilliant one at that. You could call him a beautiful skin pioneer because it was Pickart who discovered the role that remodeling copper peptides play in the repair of human skin and other tissues. This peptide is called, GHK-Copper. And it is being cited as a new weapon in the anti-aging arsenal.

“I have studied methods of reversing human aging for my entire career,” Dr. Pickart said. “It was from these studies, that the human GHK-Copper was found.”

And today because of his inventions and GHK-Copper, giant companies like Neutrogena, have products based on his discoveries. For instance, the Neutrogena Visibly Firm line of cosmetics, including their popular Night Cream and Eye Cream.

What Can Copper Peptides Do For Your Skin?

Without getting too technical here, because the subject of skin can be very complex, the skin remodeling copper peptides, or SRCP’s, can nicely improve skin density and firmness over time. Studies have shown a marked repairing in cases of laxity, clarity, fine lines, coarse wrinkles, and overall skin appearance. The copper peptides work below the skin’s surface.

When first using Dr. Pickart’s line of copper peptide products on their faces and necks, most people have noticed a healthy glow to the skin. The treatments are quite powerful, so a tiny few dabs or few drops are more than enough.

According to Dr. Pickart’s website— http://www.skinbiology.com, there is a 2-step program to rebuilding one’s skin. Think of it like this—out with the old and in with the new. In other words, an exfoliant(mild hydroxy acids) is applied to the skin in the morning. What the exfoliant does is slough off the old skin cells. The copper peptide is then used in the evening, working its magic to encourage the production of new, healthy skin cells. That's it---just 2 beauty items needed.

How Long Does It Take To See Results ?

Everyone’s skin is different. And although Skin Biology’s copper peptides and exfoliants are strong treatments and work naturally and safely, patience is required. Yes, patience is a virtue, in the skin remodeling business. Results will occur, but when?

“At least six months,” Pickart said.. “We have some women, mainly in their 50's, who have used our products for five years now, and say their skin is great. Going slow is better, but no woman ever believes that.”

Skin Biology, Inc. is one biotech research company that is on the cutting edge. Trying to reverse aging is one tough mission, but Dr. Loren Pickart has surely put some hope in a bottle. Visit: www.skinbiology.com.
