Cosmeceuticals: The New Wave in Skin Care Solutions
Cosmeceuticals are the new wave in skin care. They are topical cosmetic-pharmaceutical hybrids intended to enhance the health and beauty of the skin. Skin is the largest organ in the body, both by weight and surface area.
In adults, the weight of your skin accounts for about 16% of your total body weight.
The skin separates the internal environment from the external.
It is essential to protect and preserve the skin for your own personal health and self esteem. Cosmetic skin care products only serve to cleanse and beautify. As opposed to cosmetics, cosmeceuticals will alter the structure and function of the skin. Let's take a look at some of the ingredients and the science behind why they work.Centella Asiatica is a botanical agent, which increases collagen production by inducing its precursor enzyme. This ingredient has a shelf life of 6 months, which is why you will not find it in stores.

Interior Design With A Plasma
One of the amazing things about plasma televisions is the multitude of options they create for interior designers. The main feature benefit of the plasma is its slim profile. When switched on, a plasma television can dominate a room, but when switched off it can become an unobtrusive wall hanging.
Of the many design options, camouflage remains one of the most popular. In the living room, a plasma television can be inset in the wall and easily covered by a sliding panel to hide the unit when not in use. That would have been impossible with a bulky CRT television.
The sliding panel can hold a
mounted print and act as a contributing member of the d?cor.
I recently saw another interesting technique used to
incorporate a plasma television into a room's design inside a friend's master bedroom. The TV was mounted with a gilded frame to cover all but the screen itself, and placed at the foot of the bed, on the wall above a dresser. The reflective...
