What’s your view on cosmetic surgery? After reading the Beauty Junkies book, and catching a marathon of that reality show The Real Housewives of Orange County, I’ve been unintentionally thinking a lot about cosmetic surgery. I personally don’t want to get it, but I think about it a lot, since it’s omnipresent nowadays. Plus I [...]

At the Medical Spa I worked at, the Herbal Green Peel was one of the most popular treatments we offered. We touted it as an all natural skin peel, and we mostly marketed it to clients with darker skin types that had hyperpigmentation problems, but who were not a candidate for Photo Facials due to their [...]

Laser Hair Removal is extremely intriguing because you’ll many times hear claims like “never have to shave again” or “be hair-free for life.” When I started my job at the Medical Spa, I had researched a lot about skin care, but I didn’t know anything about laser hair removal, which was the most popular treatment we [...]

Since I live in Las Vegas, I’m taking a vested interest in MTV’s Video Music Awards (VMA) this year because they will take place live from Vegas on Sunday, September 9th. I used to be obsessed with MTV when I was a kid, and even though I’m “too old” for it now, I still watch it [...]

I currently have Botox, and I think it makes me look several years younger. Usually when I try to judge someone’s age, I look for wrinkles around their eyes, but the Botox has gotten rid of those lines, as well as the lines in my forehead and between my eyes. I thought it would be years [...]

I just wanted to show you my Medical Spa uniform - this pink Botox t-shirt (and black pants). hehe. It doesn’t look very pink here cause I took this with my camera phone. I have a black shirt too that looks pretty sleek, because of the rhinestones. Okay that’s the end of my show and [...]

After I was finally rid of my adult acne, I was left with a face full of red spots where the active acne used to be. I had red spots everywhere! They were pretty noticeable, and when I’d wash my face with warm water, or scrub it with a gentle exfoliant, the spots would come [...]

When I got the job at the Medical Spa, I was extremely excited because that meant I could try all sorts of treatments for free!! As I mentioned, I’m a skeptic, so I don’t necessarily believe in something unless I see it for myself. After viewing my extreme sun damage via a Skin Scanner and [...]
