Sibu Beauty Purifying Mask – the perfect 1x per week treatment to rid skin of impurities that lie deep beneath the surface. An exclusive formula of effective ingredients to help unclog pores, promote healing of irritations and minimize damage caused by free radicals. $ 29.95.

Sibu Beauty Clarifying Toner – a refreshing solution to help eliminate excess toxins and residue from skin. Minimizes pores, clarifies, reconditions and hydrates skin. The sea buckthorn fruit extract and seed oil helps to balance pH levels for up to 6 hours. $ 19.95

The relatively young Sibu Beauty line also includes two ingestible products: Omega 7 Gel Caps and Sea Buckthorn Revitalize & Renew Liquid Supplement, plus the topical varieties which include: Cleanse & Detox Bar, Liquid Cleanser, Repair & Protect Face Cream, Hydrating Serum, Seed Oil, Replenishing Night Cream, and Age Defying Eye Cream. The entire Sibu Beauty line of products retails between $ 6.95 and $ 39.95 each.

According to Sibu Beauty President, Peter McMullin, “Our loyal fan base is always reaching out to give us their thoughts on which products they would like to see added to our ever-expanding line. The top two requests over the past several months have been for a toner and a mask. After consulting with numerous beauty experts and our team of internal professionals, the decision was made to also add an exfoliating scrub to the mix as a deep-cleaner that can be used several times throughout the week to help rid the skin of toxins. The composition of the sea buckthorn berry helps to impart necessary nutrients into the skin while smoothing out imperfections, irritations and wrinkles.”

Sea buckthorn is the hottest ingredient to hit the beauty and wellness market since it’s introduction into the United States a few years ago, led by Sibu Beauty Founder/CEO, Bruce McMullin.

When asked about the future of the touted “miracle berry”, McMullin explained: “This tiny orange berry has been used in ancient civilizations throughout Eastern Cultures for centuries. Although sea buckthorn grows in a variety of locations throughout the world, our experience and research has proven that the Himalayan variety is the purest and most potent available due to the harsh climatic conditions it endures and the pristine soil and air quality in which it grows. We harvest our berries at the peak of freshness and transport them, via refrigerated container ships, to the United States where all the Sibu Beauty products are manufactured. “ He went on to say: “There is so much growth potential for our line and we have just begun to realize the potential of sea buckthorn as a key ingredient in numerous beauty, wellness and lifestyle arenas. Due to the tremendous response our young line has received from both the trade and consumer markets we are in the process of many exciting developments that we will be introducing in the coming years.”

Zerran International Introduces RealLisse

Zerran International Introduces RealLisse® Vegan Hair Smoothing System at Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna 2012













RealLisse® Stylist Trial Kit


Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) March 02, 2012

Zerran International, makers of Zerran Hair Care products for professional salon use including RealLisse®, the world’s first vegan hair smoothing system, is set to make its first appearance at Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna, Bologna Fiera, Bologna, Italy, Mar. 9 – 12, 2012, in Pavilion 29, Stand D14/E13. Zerran will be supported onsite by its European distributors JGR U.K. Distributions Ltd. and Wahl Harvard of Sweden.

Zerran is a member of a specially formed delegation exhibiting as “California: A State of Beauty” at the first-ever California-focused pavilion. Participating companies in this delegation run the gamut from hair care to skincare, nailcare and cosmetics. They include: Zerran Hair Care, Me! Bath, LAMU Cosmetics, John Davler, Inc./LA Splash, Hollywood Style, Diamond Wipes & LA Fresh, Dermaesthetics Beverly Hills Inc., Control Corrective Skincare Systems, Cinderella Hair Extensions, and Cacee, Inc.

For us, with all the continued governmental and industry focus on the safety of Brazilian-style keratin hair smoothing treatments, demand for formaldehyde-free and keratin-free alternatives is growing exponentially.”

Indeed, as reported by industry insider Cosmetics design-europe.com in their June 3, 2011 article http:// “Back on Track: Beauty Industry to Record Growth in Coming Years,” over the next four years the global beauty market is expected to grow and continue its recovery, aided by rebounds in consumerism, less aggressive competition, increased exposure to the faster growing emerging markets but slow recovery in developed markets.

We are proud to report that all products in the RealLisse® Vegan Hair Smoothing System and Reform® Natural Hair Straightening System have passed dermatological testing with zero adverse results,” Van Steelandt says.

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 21, 2011

Diamond Earrings, an ode to the free spirit of a woman are the latest items to look out for at ItsHot.com’s launch on Monday.

Diamonds are timeless just like the love and affection of friends and family. A diamond on a woman is a sign that she is loved, cherished and eternalized, as diamonds are really forever and their beauty and sentiment will last a lifetime.”

Just how diamond earrings look elegant on a lady, ironically enough they fantastically boost the ‘macho enchantment’ of men too. Today a fair number of male celebrities are spotted wearing these classic items of jewelry. Johnny Depp, Morgan Freeman, Brad Pitt, Snoop Dogg, are only to name a few. Their make from one of the most rare and beautiful among gemstones, account for diamond earrings being quite expensive but also a wise decision of investment as it saves money spent on countless pairs of trendy accessories replaced by one single stunning pair that can be teamed up with any attire.

Long Island Index Launches buildabetterburb.org Where ?Seeing Is Believing?

Long Island Index Launches buildabetterburb.org Where “Seeing Is Believing”











Thinking Regionally


Garden City, NY (PRWEB) December 07, 2011

Poll after poll has shown that Long Island residents are worried about the lack of affordable housing and the exodus of young people from the region. Our suburban neighbors are not as worried about these issues as we are. Why? They provide both a more vibrant economy, more housing options and a sense of community in their downtowns. Simply put, Long Island doesn’t. So what will our future be?

Re-imagining that future has been core to Build a Better Burb, which is thrilled to launch a website today which demonstrates how downtowns around the country have been rethought to create the kind of communities Long Islanders want and need for our future.

“Long Island will only be a region that creates a home for future generations and a reinvigorated economy if we are willing to be bold — to try what we haven’t tried before, to learn from what others have gotten right (and wrong), to take chances, and, critically, to demand beauty,” said Nancy Rauch Douzinas, president of the Rauch Foundation and publisher of the Long Island Index. “Doing what we have always done will not work. We don’t have the space to keep spreading out. But we do have space that can be re-imagined right in our downtowns – space to build new kinds of housing, re-think how we deal with transportation, bring together our community. Many other regions are adapting, trying new ideas, building differently. If we don’t rise to the challenge, they are more likely to be the winners in the coming decades, not us.”

For several years the Long Island Index has been reporting about the need to revitalize our downtowns and create viable, living communities that are affordable and appealing. Yet, according to surveys, Long Islanders expressed concern about how “densifying” their downtown might change the small-town feel of their community and be aesthetically unappealing. The new Build a Better Burb website displays extraordinary and beautiful examples of what is possible to dispel those concerns, and to show what innovative communities from around the country have been able to achieve. Seeing is believing. And inspiring. While many magazines and websites focus on how to make a home or garden beautiful, the Build a Better Burb website is the first to focus on the beauty and possibility of our communities. The site demonstrates that thoughtful, human-centered design can create a greater sense of community, not a lesser one.

The site is organized around four ideas:

Housing Reinvented

Long Island will always be a region of predominantly single-family homes but should it be? For young people who want to live and work here, purchasing a home is usually beyond their means. For older residents whose children are grown and want to remain near family and friends but without the responsibilities for maintaining a home, few options are available. In fact, only 17% of Long Island’s housing stock is rentals–about half of what exists in our neighboring suburban regions. It may be time to rethink this. Employers cite the difficulty in finding affordable housing for their employees and often choose to take their work elsewhere as a result. Long Islanders are overwhelmingly concerned about young people leaving because of high housing costs and few affordable options. We need–but don’t currently have– options at different price points and different styles. Our downtowns are a terrific place to begin.

More Transit/Less Parking

In and around just our downtowns we have more than 4,000 acres of surface parking lots – that’s about 6.5 square miles solely dedicated to parking our cars. Other regions have been reclaiming that land – termed “gray fields” by architects because of the sea of asphalt that defines them – by building multi-tier parking lots in some areas to free up space in others for housing, civic centers, or green space. Some communities have been changing their traffic patterns to encourage more walking, shopping, and human interaction. In other words, it’s time to rethink the hustle and bustle in and out of our cars, and instead create environments that make experiencing our downtown communities an enjoyable experience. With good design and top-notch planning, a lot of people are reinventing the pace within which we live our lives and in particular, our downtowns.

Thinking Regionally

With more governmental entities than most regions – 2 counties, 2 cities, 13 towns, over 100 incorporated villages – Long Island is truly challenged when it comes to regional planning. Each jurisdiction has the right to make land use decisions over the properties they control. There is no overriding entity that has the authority to help orchestrate plans across multiple jurisdictions. So really big ideas about how to control sprawl, how to develop commercial districts, how to expand agricultural lands, or even how to “densify” specific areas to encourage greater open space in other locations, become really difficult here. Such planning is more typically found in places that have countywide land use decision making authority. Seeing what has been achieved elsewhere and what can be imagined for Long Island, can aid us in finding a way to forge the necessary agreements and alliances to create a similar set of broad, wide-scale options for ourselves.

Creating a Sense of Place

What makes some downtowns a desired destination and others best forgotten? It is often a combination of factors including accentuating the physical beauty of the location, great streetscapes, preserved historical locales, walkability, and a vibrant mix of stores. But first and foremost it is a community that has a sense of who they are and what they want to be. Defining the key attributes that create a sense of place is a critical but often forgotten first step in a community redesign project. As Long Islanders commit themselves to reinvigorating our downtowns, we offer these inspirational examples of communities done right.

Last year, the Long Island Index hosted an ideas competition that sought the best and boldest ideas for retrofitting Long Island’s downtowns by exploiting the 8300 acres of “underperforming asphalt” in these downtowns. The winning ideas were showcased on the Build a Better Burb website.

“The Rauch Foundation’s profound commitment to the betterment of the residents and neighborhoods is a tremendous gift to Long Island. By showing what’s possible through this comprehensive and creative site, by supporting thinkers, dreamers and doers, they will be instrumental in developing a vision for a vibrant and vital community.”

    –Allison Arieff, Contributing columnist, The New York Times and Contributing Writer, The Atlantic Cities

According to Frank Mruk, Associate Dean of The School of Architecture and Design, New York Institute of Technology (NYIT), “Information on the site will be of interest to anyone working on or involved in a downtown revitalization project such as planners, architects, public officials, civic organizations but it is designed with Long Islanders in mind and focuses on the issues that are of major concern in our region.” The design team from NYIT received the People’s Choice Award for last year’s Build a Better Burb competition.

About the Rauch Foundation: The Long Island Index is funded by the Rauch Foundation, a family foundation headquartered in Garden City, New York. In addition to funding the Long Island Index for eight years the Rauch Foundation commissioned The Long Island Profile Report and a series of polls on Long Island to determine how the region is faring. The Long Island Index 2004, Long Island Index 2005, Long Island Index 2006, Long Island Index 2007, Long Island Index 2008, Long Island Index 2009, Long Island Index 2010 and Long Island Index 2011 are all available for download at http://www.longislandindex.org. The Long Island Index interactive maps, an online resource with detailed demographic, residential, transportation and educational information, is also accessible from the Index’s website.

Yesteryear’s Glamour Girl Beauty Secrets Becoming Today’s Trend Reports Celebrity-Beauty-Secret-Goldmine.com

Yesteryear’s Glamour Girl Beauty Secrets Becoming Today’s Trend Reports Celebrity-Beauty-Secret-Goldmine.com











Meriden, CT (PRWEB) February 13, 2007

The beauty tips website, Celebrity-Beauty-Secret-Goldmine.com, reports a blossoming trend: the beauty secrets of yesteryear’s glamour girls are being sought by today’s culture.

“Women today are looking for beauty inspiration from the beauty queens of the past”, says Sara Liz, Editor-in-Chief of Celebrity-Beauty-Secret-Goldmine.com.

A recent analysis of the keywords used to find the beauty website shows that the number of web surfers interested in the “it girls” of the past, as beauty muses, is growing. Recent keyword strings entered into search engines that led web surfers to the site included, “Brigitte Bardot’s beauty tips” and even “Joan Crawford’s beauty rituals”!

The website was launched in March of 2006 and features beauty secrets of the iconic, glamour girls of yesterday, such as Brigitte Bardot, Betty Grable, and Marilyn Monroe, as well as the beauty secrets of today’s celebrities like Angelina Jolie, Beyonce, Jessica Alba and Jessica Simpson. From Christina Aguilera’s retro hair and makeup in her circus-themed video for “Hurt”, to Christian Lacroix’s flapper-haired models in his spring 2007 collection, retro beauty and fashion are invading the current popular culture.

“Some of our website visitors are fascinated by the nostalgia of a retro-look and want to recreate it”, said Sara Liz. “Others are just curious about the beauty tips of the vintage glamour girls. The pages that feature the beauty secrets of the classic celebrities are among the most popular pages on the website.”

So what are some beauty tips of the beauty queens from the days of yore? Marilyn Monroe purposely lowered her eyelids a bit before her photo was snapped, to look more seductive. Jean Harlow wore white satin gowns, which along with her platinum hair and ivory skin, made her appear to glow. Brigitte Bardot achieved her signature look by going from brunette to blonde and by teasing her hair for height on the top. There are many beauty tips used by the original glamour girls, which are being embraced again today, as evidenced by the recent resurgence of false eyelashes and back-combed hair.
