- The Beauty Brains: The ladies (and cosmetic chemists) tell the truth about hand sanitizers and your skin/nail health (and the answer might surprise you)!
- Truth in Aging: Marta discusses how she fought the good fight against lip and marionette lines – and won.
- AdvanceWeb: An excellent slide show reviewing some top-notch skin care holiday gift ideas.
