Posted by Reporter on Tuesday

Changes Plastic Surgery & SpaThe 8 episode work place “dramedy” series takes place at one of Southern California’s hottest Plastic Surgery offices, changes Plastic Surgery & Spa operated by Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Gilbert Lee. In this new reality workplace dramedy, Oxygen Media pulls back the curtain and injects fun into the tantalizing world of medi-spas and plastic surgery.

Addicted to Beauty follows the inside story of Dianne York-Goldman socialite and medi-spa expert joining forces with well known San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Gilbert Lee at his Changes Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa. Dr. Lee has recruited Dianne to develop and run a medical spa within his already successful plastic surgery practice. When Dianne brings her over-the-top employees from her previous spa to Changes Plastic Surgery & Spa the work place antics get out of control. The staffs of the two business owners must learn to work together for the common good of the new medical spa. As the pressure increases to get the spa up and running, personalities clash and chaos ensues. However, this group may be no match for Melanie (aka, “Mel”), Dr. Lee’s no nonsense office manager who becomes fed up with the incompetence of Dianne’s staff. In the midst of drama and the clash of egos, cool and level headed Dr. Lee continues to operate a very successful plastic surgery practice and the launching of his brand new Changes Skin Care Line of medical grade products. The entire staff rallies around the Changes Skin Care Line, and sales skyrocket. Overall, it’s going to be a bumpy ride to success! Will they all make it together, or will the team fragment? Stay tuned Tuesday nights to see what ‘Changes’ are in store for you.

Addicted to Beauty and the Oxygen Network will give viewers actual insight from real patients about their plastic surgery/spa experiences at Changes Plastic Surgery & Spa.

MyChelle Dermaceuticals New Clear Skin Series

Posted by Reporter on

MyChelle DermaceuticalsIt’s inevitable; right before a big date, prom or graduation, bam, a pimple the size of Mount St. Helens pops up in the most conspicuous place, like a witches wart on the tip of the nose or Cyclopes’ third eye.  Old-school skin remedies are just that, old school.  No longer does the concealer conceal, and who wants to put benzoyl peroxide or acetone on their face. That can only make the situation worse by adding some dry flakey skin to the protruding, red bump and can lead to even worse health problems down the road.

MyChelle Dermaceuticals understands skin issues better than anybody, and has been helping solve skin problems for over eight years now – all naturally.  MyChelle’s products include pure and therapeutic ingredients that can effect a change in the skin at a cellular level.  Totarol is a key ingredient, and is a naturally occurring plant extract, from Totara trees in New Zealand, which is a potent antibacterial and antioxidant property in the skin care series.   Understanding that skin is different at every age, MyChelle’s new Clear Skin Teen Anthology is an all-natural acne treatment program specially formulated for teens.

“Because of my personal past struggles with acne, I have been on a mission to create the most effective teen acne products ever formulated,” said Myra Michelle Eby, founder of MyChelle Dermaceuticals.  “Our innovative Clear Skin Teen Anthology  is a natural, yet effective, answer to solve acne woes through the right combination of bioactives in the four products that complete the series.  This quatro is so effective that I have even incorporated these into my daily skin care ritual to keep my naughty skin in check.”

Acne knows no boundaries or age but we feel is most devastating in the peer pressured teen years with serious self-esteem issues.  In fact, acne is the most common skin disease in America affecting more than 60 million people, with nearly 85 percent of people aged 12 -24* suffering from this annoying and confidence-crushing problem.

With up to 60 percent of topically applied ingredients absorbed by the skin, acne sufferers should be wary of active ingredients in conventional acne treatments, including benzoyl peroxide and triclosan; both of which can dry the skin and cause more harm than help.

MyChelle’s new Clear Skin Teen Anthology includes a safe and effective skin care regimen that will help skin regain a balance and avoid the oily-dry roller coaster that can only aggravate the issue.  It won’t dry out the skin like other teen-focused regimens, and does not include any harsh chemicals.

The specialized products in the MyChelle teen acne program—Clear Skin Teen Anthology—work together to reverse and potentially eliminate acne completely. This program will not only clear skin, it will neutralize bacteria and balance oil production while supporting the healing process of infected acne lesions.

The Clear Skin Teen Anthology features:

  • Clear Skin Cleanser, to thoroughly cleanse;
  • Clear Skin Clarifying Pads, to provide additional soothing anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial support;
  • Clear Skin Spot Treatment, to treat specific problematic areas or simply spot treat; and the
  • Clear Skin Balancing Cream, to nourish, hydrate and balance oily, blemish prone skin.

* From The American Dermatologist Association

Time to stop adding fire to fire and to treat your skin with bioactive, all-natural ingredients, such as willow bark (salix alba), a naturally occurring salicylic acid for exfoliation, totarol from New Zealand for its potent anti-bacterial properties, and lemongrass essential oil to calm and normalize oil production.

Now it’s natural to say good-bye to acne and love your skin again with MyChelle’s new Clear Skin Anthology.  Check them out online.  MyChelle is also now on MyChelle Facebook.  Join the discussion and watch for special offers and great contests for Facebook fans.

Gluten-Free Chocolate Raspberry Cupcakes

Posted by Reporter on

I’m on a recipe kick.

My sweet tooth steadily rages on, but I am not satisfied with making concoctions I’ve already made. I need to give my lusty sweet tooth something new to chew on. Enter chewy cupcakes.

I can’t help but check out Nourishing Gourmet’s blog regularly. She is always coming up with the most exquisite adaptations of a recipe. I love the fun, unusual ingredients she uses like coconut flour and coconut paste. For these cupcakes I will probably use honey instead of coconut paste, but at least I learned something new! I’ve never heard of coconut sugar paste…

Happy Birthday, Mr. President Obama! If I could knock on your front door and deliver these tasty morsels to you, I would!

Gluten-Free Chocolate Raspberry Cupcakes:

    1/4 cup coconut flour
    1/4 cup cocoa powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon vanilla (make sure your vanilla is gluten free, if needed)
    1/2 cup of honey or coconut sugar paste (maple syrup would work too, I bet)
    1/4 cup of coconut oil
    1/2 cup of fresh or frozen raspberries
    3 eggs

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

1-Grease muffins tins, or put in muffin papers.

2-Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium bowl.

3-Add the wet ingredients (but not the raspberries) and whisk well, until all lumps are gone.

4-Fold in the raspberries, and fill muffin tins, 2/3 full.

5-Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the top if firm and a toothpick comes out clean, when poked in the middle of the muffin. Take out of the muffin tins and cool on cooling racks.

Thank you Nourishing Gourmet!
