As any of you who have tried to order in the past few days knows, our shopping cart server is currently offline.

By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:39 pm
Sometimes you get a bump on your skin that’s not acne, but looks equally bad. It might be caused by an ingrown hair, or an irritated area of your skin that remains inflamed even after the acne pustule is gone. These spots can be a pain in the neck to get rid off, so what [...]

By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:39 pm
Have you ever noticed how acne can be effected by your haircut or how you comb your bangs? Some people with longer hair occasionally try to comb their hair down over their forehead in attempt to hide acne, but this can have unintended consequences, as that hair can leave your skin even more oily than [...]

By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:39 pm
Acne is related to stress, and it can be one of those self-perpetuating cycles. Stress can make you impatient, and when you’re stressed out and look in the mirror (and pimples meet your eye), you can get the urge to, well, do something about it. If that something includes taking B5 or using a [...]
Read More >>Taking Turmeric for Acne
By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:39 pm
Turmeric is a herb harvested from the roots of the Curcuma Longa plant. It’s well known as a cooking spice, but recently has been gaining attention as, you guessed it, a health supplement. Turmeric has long been used in Chinese medicine, not that that counts for much if you’re like me (note: ground up dinosaur [...]

By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:39 pm
As someone who’s had sensitive skin my whole life, I’m used to dealing with blemishes. Acne used to be the main problem. That is, until I discovered vitamin B5 acne treatment and my skin took a dramatic turn for the better. However, while acne is no longer a concern, the consequences of shaving linger on. [...]
Read More >>Goodbye Liquid Vitamins
By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:39 pm
As some of you have no doubt noticed, we are no longer offering the liquid vitamins for sale. There were a couple reasons for this, but the main ones are simply that the cost of production is prohibitive, and the demand just isn’t there. Surprisingly, many people know about the benefits of liquid vitamins, but [...]

By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:39 pm
It can be hard selling vitamin treatments, as a lot of people tend to write off any treatment with the word “natural” in it as a scam. Unfortunately, people form these stereotypes because a lot of the products out there are just that. So how can you spot a fraud from the real thing? Well, [...]

By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:38 pm
I have to go without my parents knowing, so I’ll be paying cash out of my savings account. How much does it cost for the initial appointment, and how much are treatments? I’ve literally tried EVERYTHING to get clear skin and six years later I finally gave up. I’m willing to drop up to 0 [...]

Open Question: Is there a certain type of look a talent agency looks for?

I’m planning on auditioning for an agency later this year, and I want to leave them a good impression so I may be accepted into it. I’m a little overweight, and plan on losing the extra pounds. I am also trying to get clearer skin and a brighter smile. But besides physicality wise, when I [...]

Open Question: Girls: If you are uncomfortable without makeup on, what things are you uncomfortable about?
By Med Spa Expert at 27 January, 2010, 3:38 pm
I’m 17 and almost never go out without makeup on. I have bad skin (acne, blotchiness etc etc) and I’m super embarrassed about that. But the thing is, that’s all I’m really self conscious about. The only makeup I wear about from concealer/powder for my skin is a TINY bit of eyeliner, and I’d be [...]

For the last years I have suffered from itchy and dry skin, allergies, rashes, acne, anger attacks, nervous breakdowns and depression. I have very low temper, I get angry fast and I can’t tolerate lots of things. Every little thing around me makes me go crazy and depresses me. I believe that paranoia and mood [...]
