I broke away from my beloved Aminogenesis Photolagen-AGF to try out the new, premiere Aminogenesis product, DermaScyne 2. Aminogenesis claims DermaScyne 2 will increase collagen production by 400%. That’s one hefty claim and, after the miraculous job Photolagen-AGF did on my skin, it was a tall order to fill. I used DermaScyne regularly for 6 weeks, but I didn’t see any difference in my skin as compared to when I was using Photolagen-AGF. It wasn’t as plumping to the skin. It…

I find that this and…

Vitamin C and peptides are the essential beginnings to any skin care routine. (Check out I’m A Beginner –…

It’s a familiar image now – the sight of someone bald from chemotherapy. Hair loss occurs because the chemotherapy attacks all cells that divide rapidly, good or bad. Your hair follicles are good cells that divide rapidly, every 23-72 hours, and, therefore, they too are attacked. Hair doesn’t always come out though. It depends on the severity of the chemotherapy being used and the frequency of treatments. Some also only affect the hair on your head, others cause your eyelashes,…
