Cash for your car

as\if by Dr. Paul Nassif
Dr. Paul Nassif, renowned plastic surgeon and star of “Botched” has launched his own skincare line as|if by Nassif. Although this particular line of products can be used by anyone, it is specifically focused on millennial skin, which is good most of the time but can be prone to occasional breakouts and irritation. It provides the ingredients needed to keep skin in healthy condition, young and fresh.

  • #GetWoke, an exfoliating cleanser + mask, which is a three-in-one cleanser for “#prettyfilter” skin which cleanses masks and exfoliate skin at the same time. It uses purifying clay which dissolves makeup and cell buildup. The results are “as if” you spent hours getting a facial!
  • Then there’s #AreWeClear skin-refining essence, which makes skin look “as if” you’ve done everything right! The peptide complex combined with plant extracts enriches your skin and Gluconolactone refines rough porous texture to leave your skin looking astonishing: smooth, clear and radiant.
  • To complete this brilliant trio is #YouFeelMe … Yes I do! This super potent Hydro cream moisturizer restores your complexion after late nights, lack of sleep, too much sugar or alcohol, and exposure to other pollutants that can make your skin look drab, tired and older than it is. Restores your complexion to #PrettyFilter perfect! www.asifbynassif.com. @asifbynassif #asif #asifbynassif #prettyfilterskin

PMD Beauty
During the holidays, we tend to get a little lax with our beauty routine. This is why Dr. Mark Taylor, a world-renowned dermatologist behind cult-favorite PMD Beauty wants your readers to know what holiday skin sins they should avoid.

#1 – Junk Food: Grabbing a quick, unhealthy bite is common this time of year because of travel and holiday treats. While delicious, certain junk foods have been shown to cause breakouts by producing excess sebum.
#2 – Lack of Sleep: Irregular schedules from holiday stress, partying and travel can affect sleep, which also negatively affects the skin. No sleep can make glowing skin turn dull, change skin texture and can even affect collagen growth.
#3 – Popping Bottles: Holidays call for celebration – which is why we tend to drink more this time of year. But not only does alcohol increase inflammation, but it’s also dehydrating which can make skin dull and shows more wrinkles.
Avoiding these holiday skin sins can be difficult, so to make sure you’re getting the deepest clean, Dr. Taylor recommends the following devices:

A smart facial cleansing device that breaks down dirt and oil from within the pores at 7,000 vibrations per minute while operating at a frequency to lift, firm, and tone. Heat therapy combined with SonicGlow™ activates skincare by assisting with deeper absorption and effectiveness.

Personal Microderm is a revolutionary at-home skincare tool that provides the same brilliant results as professional, in-office microdermabrasion treatments. It removes the dead skin cell barrier, stimulates new cell growth, diminishes pore size, wrinkles, fine lines, and dark spots. Combines Patented Spinning Disc technology with Perfectly Calibrated Vacuum Suction to leave skin looking fresh and radiant. Weekly treatments reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, blemishes and enlarged pores.
