24 Karat Facial


Throughout history, gold has been recognized for its luxurious and beautifying properties. Cleopatra used pure gold as a tool to maintain youthful skin and reportedly slept in a gold mask every night. In ancient Rome, gold salves were used for the treatment of a variety of skin problems. In ancient Chinese medicine gold was a key to youth, as the queen of the Ch’ing dynasty used a gold massage roller on her face everyday.What makes the gold facial work?
A remarkably potent hydrating compound, Gamma PGA is a major breakthrough in the science of skincare. Originally discovered in marine jellyfish, it is derived from Natto, a Japanese soybean-based health food item that is over one thousand years old. Gamma PGA hydrates and prepares the skin and helps gold penetrate when used in combination.

Bra Detects Cancers

The Smart Bra relies upon the science of thermography, which in this context is the detection of minor temperature changes that occur to the breast tissue. As tumors begin to grow, they demand a higher blood flow to develop. This increased blood flow will result in an elevated temperature, signifying the initial stages of cancerous growth. The Smart Bra will be made from materials that are sensitive to passive microwaves, similar to those used in remote sensing technologies, to detect the thermal alterations. The cancer-preventing bra will be worn instead of a "normal" undergarment, and will incorporate a discrete alarm feature to alert the wearer to seek medical attention if necessary.

Wrinkle Away With Oranges


An orange a day may keep the wrinkles away.

In one of the first studies to examine the impact of nutrients from foods rather than supplements on skin aging, researchers reported that people who ate plenty of vitamin C–rich foods had fewer wrinkles than people whose diets contained little of the vitamin.

Diets rich in the omega–6 fatty acid linoleic acid were also associated with less skin aging from dryness and thinning, while higher–fat diets and those higher in carbohydrates were associated with more wrinkling.

Sunflower and safflower oils and many nuts are high in linoleic acid. Byproducts of linoleic acid are plentiful in salmon and other fatty fish.

The findings are far from conclusive, but they do suggest that when it comes to skin aging, you truly are what you eat.

Less Invasive Breast Lift

Internal Breast Lift Procedure by Israeli plastic surgeon Eyal Gur said he expects approval next year for his revolutionary breast-lift procedure (“an internal bra”) in which an actual thin titanium bra-like frame is implanted just under the skin with silicone cups to hold the breasts up. Dr. Gur said the procedure will be quicker (40 minutes long), less invasive (local anesthesia only) and less expensive (no hospital stay) than today’s breast lifts.

Men Choose To Wax


Men are choosing to wax and tweese. It can change the look of the face immediately. It opens up the eyelids and separarates the eyes. It creates the right impression and it is important to properly pluck and wax and trim unruly brows. Men should keep their brows as natural as possible and not to thin out the brow. Eyebrow waxing is inexpensive and it worth the price.

Computers Become Our Mirrors


We will be looking to our computers rather than a mirror in the near future to create a virtual makeover.
Toshiba recently showcased a new way to make up for a party or that special date using a notebook. SpursEngine a high performance video stream processor takes real time vido/image and renders to new levels of realism and image quality.A prototype unveiled at the CEATEC (Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technology) 2007 in Tokyo, which this correspondent visited, attracted sizable crowds. They witnessed an attractive Japanese model standing in front of a notebook, trying out numerous hairstyles, shades of mascara and lipstick without ever opening her make-up kit.Tracking her face in real-time, the laptop threw up various ways that she could present herself for the day, instantly recognising and processing changes in the model’s facial position, angle and expression and showing the results as 3D graphics. Satisfied with one of the ‘options,’ the model then picked her ‘look of the day’ and proceeded, presumably, to a mirror. Also in the reckoning are real-time body capture and face morphing targeting the lifestyle sector. It may also be of use in the medical sector and in security-sensitive environments.

New Concern Over Lead In Lipsticks



With concern over the lead in toy recalls from China. The FDA is now looking into cosmetics coming from China with worries about levels of lead in lipstick.
The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics sent more than 30 different lipsticks to a lab for testing and 20 of them contained lead.

"We want the companies to immediately re-formulate their products to get the lead out," said Stacy Malkan, a representative from the group. "We need to change the laws and force these companies to be accountable to women's health.""We want the companies to immediately re-formulate their products to get the lead out," said Stacy Malkan, a representative from the group. "We need to change the laws and force these companies to be accountable to women's health."

Others in the cosmetic industry believe the report to be invalid.

"I think the levels are actually quite low [and] really not something that would present a cause for concern," said John Bailey of the Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association.

The Food and Drug Administration said Friday it would look into the claims.
