Red, Blotchy, Burning Skin and About to Go on TV

Those of you who know me well, know that as sensitive as I am personally, my skin is worse! I look at a pimple, I get one. I smell sunscreen, I break out. I think of glycolic acid, my whole body starts itching and peeling. You get my point. So, when I was asked to be on Fox News last week, I had just gotten an intense facial and micro dermabrasion at my dermatologist's office. My aesthetician was in a particular mood and decided to do some deep pore cleansing that I knew I would regret. After being scrubbed, exfoliated, buffed and masked, I felt great. I looked in the mirror!!! HORROR! How can I be on TV like this? I can't even touch my face it kinda hurts.

Lucky for me, for the original segment I was going to show all the viewers that they can buy all of their holiday stuff locally and had collected numerous items from the local vendors. One of which included a cosmetic line, Cosminology pioneered by Dr. Dima Ali. You all know her, she was our cover mom Fall 09 Fairfax Edition.

Something prompted me to go to her box. I found a powder and opened it, I figured I will send her a check and return the other stuff. I put it on! Wow!

My face looked awesome. I have been using it everyday and love it. It is not powdery, not cakey, not greasy. It is lovely. My husband even commented on my great skin. Heavenly skin as Dr. Dima would say!

I am keeping the whole box. As for my facial and micro derm, loved them too. My skin rocks!

Peace...
Hulya

Lu2 is not just for those undergoing treatment. I'm 24 and it has done wonderful things for my complexion. Covers, but doesn't feel like you are wearing any makeup. I'll get over 3 months with 1 container. Love the Finishing Touch, too.

Good makeup but I have found one that is better and less pricey. Lu2 mineral makeup comes from a small town in southern Illinois. Lu2 is designed for women with chemo, radiation, or laster treatment issues. And the price is something like $27.50 for a 10 gram jar that has lasted one month and stays on except during the hottest, most humid days. Bought it from the Lu2 website. Bought the blusher, too and used it on eyes and lips. Lu2 for me.

The line of skin care and cosmetics that Dr. Ali has created is the best by far of any I have tried. Run don't walk to take advantage of the investment you will see in your skin. Lina Reinert

TESTIMONIALS

February 2012 Thank you for producing such a fun, current magazine full of great information. Wishing you continued (and BIG) success. Pamela Steuart.Fine Art
October 2011 Just picked up a copy at my daughter's Little Gym class and found myself reading it instead of my Kindle! Enjoyed many of the essays, particularly the first year teacher at an inner-city school...and so many other articles. Kristine Meldrum Denholm, freelance journalist
