Hello friends and welcome to the August edition of our newsletter. Sorry for the delay but "better late than never"! 
There is lots of news this month but make sure you scroll all the way down for our August SPECIAL!

First of all we would like to introduce our new aesthetician, Ms. Jacqueline Lozano.  She is a para-medical aesthetician with 14 years of experience in skin care and is an expert in microdermabrasion, high-end medical grade peels and facials.  Those that have experienced her touch have used words like "heavenly", "soothing", "lovely" to describe it.  So, don't miss out.  Treat yourself and beautify your skin at the same time.  We guarantee you'll love your treatment.

On to other news... 
In June we told you about our favorite sunblock, La Roche Posay's Anthelios SPF 60 with Mexoryl.  Since then this product has been all over the news and many popular TV programs such as The Today Show and The View.  We knew it was only a matter of time before this product found national fame here in the United States!  But we won't try to take credit for it because this product sells itself.  And if you already use it, you know what we mean.  Here is parts of an article in the August issue of "Prescriber's Letter", (an unbiased evidence-based newsletter in drug therapy targeted for healthcare professionals):

  " All of the buzz about a sunscreen ingredient called mexoryl is drawing attention to the importance of UVA protection.
     Mexoryl is a UVA filter used in Canada and Europe. It's not in the U.S...

     Most sunscreens are labeled "full" or "broad-spectrum"...to indicate that they block both UVA and UVB rays.
     But people don't realize that SPF ratings apply only to UVB... there's no standard rating for UVA protection (in the USA).
     UVB rays cause sunburn and skin cancer.
     UVA rays penetrate deeper in the skin leading to wrinkles... sagging...discoloration...and photosensitivity reactions. UVA also contributes to skin cancer.
     Avobenzone, oxybenzone, and dioxybenzone filter UVA rays... but these sunscreens break down quickly in the sun.
     Zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are very effective at blocking both UVA and UVB rays...but many leave a white film.
     Mexoryl is popular because it's very effective...photostable... and cosmetically appealing...
     UVA protection is especially important for patients using drugs that can cause photosensitivity...quinolones...retinoids... thiazides, etc. These drugs or their metabolites can react with UVA light and cause skin damage. "
