CSI USA, Inc. Issues Voluntary National Recall of Topical Acne Cream
Contact:
George J. Phillips, Esq.
(615) 822-8822
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — GALLATIN, TN, November 13, 2008 – CSI, USA, Inc. issued a voluntary nationwide consumer product recall of all lots of 1 ounce (28 g) tubes of 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Cream with the following names: “DG Maximum Strength Acne Medicated Gel” (sold at Dollar General); “Kroger Acne Gel 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Medication” (sold at Kroger); and “Equate: Medicated Acne Gel” (sold at Wal-Mart).
These products are being recalled because samples of the products were found to contain bacteria identified as “Burkholderia Cepacia,” formerly known as Pseudomonas Cepacia.
After conducting a thorough assessment, the company concluded that the risk of illness in healthy individuals following use of this product is very low. However, there could be an increased health risk of infections for individuals with cuts, scrapes, rashes or other compromised skin conditions; or those with weakened or suppressed immune systems.
No consumer adverse health events related to this issue have been reported.
No other acne medications sold by Dollar General, Kroger or Wal-Mart are affected by this recall.
Consumers should discontinue using the product and may obtain a full refund by mailing the tube, or proof of purchase, to:

Spring and Summer 2006 Beauty Trend

Spring and Summer 2006 Beauty Trend – The Ponytail
Spring and Summer 2006 Beauty Trend – The Ponytail
Ponytails are in – in a big way. They have been seen on the red carpet on everyone from Lindsey Lohan to Queen Latifah. Nothing fancy either – just your basic pull it back with an elastic and go.
Seems this season any pony goes – low, high, half, sleek or with some hair loose around the temples. Of course, I have always believed that the ponytail is the perfect warm weather hairstyle.
I really love the pretty decorative elastic ponytail loops that are available – like hair jewelry. Most of the ones I have seen out and about are very elegant and understated, just a touch of glamour – really dresses up your ponytail!
Another current hair trend is long loose curls. I think this is a great addition to a ponytail and is easy to achieve with a few hot rollers after pulling your hair back.
A great classic ponytail look is to take a small section of your hair and wrap it around (to cover) the elastic band.
Always use snag-free bands for your pony, rubber bands can pull and break your hair.
If you like to be on the leading edge, go with a side pony. A few young stars have been pictured with side ponytails – just above one ear.
Enjoy your ponytail – I know I will – and I hope they stay in style a very long time!!

Skin Type Solution Book
The Skin Type Solution Book
The Skin Type Solution is a new book by Dr. Leslie Baumann, a world-renowned dermatologist.
Dr. Baumann, has developed a program that’s revolutionizing the way people everywhere think about —and shop for —skin care. Now you can identify and buy the products that are right for your true skin type. Answer the Baumann questionnaire inside this book and within minutes you can learn… “THE SKIN TYPE SOLUTION”.
Bewildered at the number of products to choose from? Want a safe, easy, and affordable plan that works for you? Whatever question you have about your complexion, “The Skin Type Solution” has the answer.
Dr. Baumann expands the 100 year old “Dry, Normal, Oily” skin types to 16 different types.
The types are combinations of:
In the beginning of the book, you take a quiz to determine your skin type. She then gives her recommendations for skin care and makeup for each skin type. The recommendations are comprehensive – from drugstore to prestige brands.I recommend The Skin Type Solution to anyone who is not thrilled with their skin or skincare (she also gives makeup recommendations).

Mineral Makeup

Like a cheatin’ man who can’t stay faithful to one woman, I am always seduced by the “latest and greatest” in the beauty market. No matter how much I love a product, I seem to always be tempted by the others….
The one exception has been mineral makeup. OK, I confess I have strayed a few times, but the resultant acne always sends me flying back to my beloved minerals.
I am so devoted to mineral makeup I have created a website, Mineral Makeup Reviews, to assist others in learning about and finding their perfect minerals.
If you have never used mineral makeup and don’t know where to start, or have tried Bare Escentual’s bareminerals and want to see what else is available you might enjoy a visit to the site.
