Dysport
Submitted by Reena on Thu, 10/01/2009 - 23:29. As you get older your skin loses its elasticity and those creases deepen into lines that become permanently etched on your face. Frown lines between your eyes can become particularly noticeable at a relatively young age, making you look angry or worried even when you’re not.
Dysport is a protein extracted from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.
How is Dysport used?
Tiny amounts of Dysport are injected directly into the facial muscles underlying the frown lines. It usually takes three to five small, almost painless injections between the eyebrows for an effective treatment. No local anesthetic is usually required but if you are concerned your doctor can numb the skin over the area before injecting. You can expect treatment to take around 10-20 minutes.
Who can benefit from Dysport?
Deeply etched frown lines affect not just your appearance, but also your self-esteem and even your choice of career. Dysport can help you look younger, more relaxed and in control – for around the same price per month as a cut and colour by your hairdresser.
Are there any side effects and risks with Dysport?
Along with its desired effects, treatments can cause unwanted effects. This does not happen very often. The most common side effects are temporary soreness or mild bruising around the injection site.
You should not have Dysport treatment while you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or at all if you have a neuromuscular disease.

Submitted by Prerna on Wed, 02/04/2009 - 19:48.
Lancôme High Résolution Eye Refill-3x has triple anti-wrinkle power that refills wrinkles within one hour. Skin reclaims a youthful elasticity and resiliency and is noticeably more supple and plump. Dermatologists are only able to inject collagen and hyaluronic acid, but Refill-3X complex has the added ability to boost the synthesis of elastin. Immediately, the eye contour appears smoother, and in four weeks, wrinkles appear significantly reduced, with a visible improvement in the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.
Active Ingredients:-
-Di-peptide (ER 2947): Boosts synthesis of new elastin fibers and protects and maintains skin resiliency.
-Alfalfa Extract: Stimulates the synthesis of Collagen 5 and accelerates skin's production of Hyaluronic Acid.
-Sodium Hyaluronate: Helps replenish skin's own hyaluronate reserves.
-D-Contraxol+ Complex (Manganese Gluconate + Adenosine): Helps relax tension on surface of skin.
-Hyaluronic Acid Plumping Spheres: Microscopic spheres absorb into skin's surface, then expand with moisture for a visible plumping effect.

-Haloxyl: Helps strengthen and stimulate the circulation under the eye.
-Caffeine: Stimulates microcirculation.

Submitted by Nidhi on Wed, 02/04/2009 - 19:33.
Acne Clearing Device
What it is:
An advanced, heat-enabled acne clearing skincare tool for mild to moderate acne.
What it does:
At the touch of a button, ThermaClear Acne Clearing Device treats in seconds, clears in days. The easy to use handheld ThermaClear device delivers a 2-second pulse of healing thermal energy that neutralizes pimple-causing bacteria at the source. It's clinically proven to be safe and effective on all skin types and tones, clearing pimples up to 4 times faster than those not treated with ThermaClear. ThermaClear treats pimples you see, and even the ones you don't, allowing you to effectively treat pimples at first sign, below the skin's surface, before they even become visible. And the best part? Treatment time is only 2 seconds per pimple. It's similar to the technology used by leading dermatologists, only now you can use it at home for a fraction of the cost.
Breakthrough 2-second ThermaClear technology gives you the
pimple-fighting advantage.
ThermaClear’s exclusive two-second Thermal Pulse Technology™ reaches beneath the skin’s surface to trigger a highly effective dual-action healing process: neutralizing acne-causing bacteria from above while stimulating the body’s own powerful acne-fighting proteins from below, so you get clearer skin up up to four times faster than if left untreated. It’s similar to the laser technology dermatologists use to treat mild-to-moderate acne — but without the hassle or expense of doctor’s appointments
What else you need to know:
When considering if ThermaClear is right for you, keep in mind that mild acne is defined as several inflamed pimples, while moderate acne is many inflamed pimples and pustules (elevation of skin that is filled with pus). This type of acne is commonly referred to as pimples, breakouts, blemishes and zits. ThermaClear should not be used by those with severe nodular or cystic acne and it is not for use on non-inflammatory acne. Clearer skin can be yours quickly and easily, but for safety and best results be sure to read and understand the User's Guide that comes with your ThermaClear device

Anti-Gravity Firming Eye Lift Cream
Submitted by Lopa Here on Tue, 02/03/2009 - 20:17.
Clinique was the first skin care line I ever used. Remember how carefully we all followed the 3 step program? Cleanse, tone, moisturize. Somewhere along the way (it's been a long road) we lost our connection with Clinique. This product brought us back. It has a wonderfully smooth texture and it's very moisturizing, just perfect for our dry winter skin. We even used some on our cracked hands. It has left us with dewy,fresh, healthy skin,
Densely hydrating cream lifts, firms around the eyes. Helps erase the look of lines. Builds cushion into time-thinned skin. Brightens eye area.

Crème de la Mer
Submitted by Meera on Thu, 01/22/2009 - 21:55.
Crème de la Mer is a nutrient-rich, highly potent Miracle Broth™. There is nothing unusual about its ingredients—a blend of sea kelp, vitamins and minerals. It's the way Huber distilled them that made the difference between a good moisturizer and a small miracle, borrowing from the ancient science of fermentation. This intensive, 3 to 4 month process released vital energies, transforming the ingredients into a whole far greater than the sum of its parts.
There are those who insist Crème de la Mer has produced astonishing results. Some might even call it miraculous. In a short time, skin becomes softer, firmer, looks virtually creaseless. Even the driest of complexions are healed.
THE SECRET Miracle Broth™ is suspended within its extraordinary formula. To activate the broth and release its key ingredients, warm a small amount between your fingertips. As you pat onto clean, dry skin, you will instantly feel the soothing effects of the broth. Smooth over your face, neck, even under the fragile eye area.

I have been using the products for two week and my skin is softer and firmer than when I started. All of the products in this line leave my skin feeling revived and I love the fact that they are non-greasy. I have used several other anti aging products and feel I am receiving the best results.
