Lipstick Challenge Day 25: The French do it Better Posted on January 15, 2013 by Loni one product at a timeThis stuff is amazing. On the lips its pure matte, velvet moisture love (if thats a thing), but in a pinch the other day I slathered this on my hands for some quick relief from the dry, cracking hands that winter has decided to bestow. I know I mention a lot of hand cream on the blog, but what I don’t mention is that as the temperature dips even more, I need more moisture, I need more help, my hands are getting out of control. Peeling cuticles, cracking knuckles, dry patches you name it my hands have it- and its not pretty. ...

Pharmacies Report Flu Vaccine Shortage WSJ NY REGION January 14, 2013, 12:02 a.m. ETBy JOSH DAWSEYFlu shots are available in New York, but they're becoming increasingly difficult to find. An early and fierce start to this year's flu season, which has already killed 20 children nationwide and drawn the "epidemic" label from the Centers for Disease Control, has driven New Yorkers to snap up the vaccine. Several large area pharmacy chains were reporting shortages, and many independent pharmacies said they were completely out or running low. "We've been so busy. We've never dispensed so many antibiotics," said Abby Fazio, owner of New London Pharmacy in Chelsea. "It's alarming to me." Ms. Fazio's shop still had flu shots Sunday afternoon, but she was planning to order more vials Monday after more than 100 shots were administered in the past week. In the previous three months, the pharmacy had given 260 shots. |

Socialite-ing: Suresh Beauty LipLUXE Launch at The FashionisetteOn Friday, I had the pleasure of attending theSuresh Beauty LipLUXE Launch event at New London Pharmacy. Three major things happened that night - I was introduced to New London Pharmacy, I finally got to meet Suresh, and Suresh launched his LipLUXE collection. Now I might be the last person to know about New London Pharmacy, but I am definitely a big fan. It's like a homey, cozy, neighborhood beauty and health boutique, housing the best of the best from cosmetics to skin care, Spanx to perfume, and everything in between.

The High-Low LUXE Lips LifestyleMirror Monday, June 25, 2012A $50 lip balm is a luxury—especially when there are countless low-priced alternatives. But La Mer’s is oddly alluring: its minty, whipped formula glides on lips and hydrates in seconds, creating a clean slate for high-impact lip colors. But the French know no fuss, which is why makeup artists rely on Homeoplasmine: a $25 tube found at the pharmacy. The large item will last even the driest of lips at least a year (unlike Fresh’s similarly priced, though highly-effective and delicious option) and the results are equally stunning. —Phillip Picardi |

Kevyn Aucoin Beauty Relaunch Plus Deets on the New Matte Lipsticks By: Danielle
...The brand recently had a relaunch party at New London Pharmacy (on Eighth Avenue between 22nd and 23rd, but closer to 23rd) and I totally had to stop by. Kevyn Aucoin Beauty is definitely a high end brand where you can justify the cost on some of the brand’s best items—it incites something in the senses (I mean, how can you not perk up from something with the name “Sensual” in the title?)

We Have Less than 2 Months to Get Rid of Bacne Before Summer! By: DanielleDanielle mentioned us in here recent Blog...
3. The Organic Pharmacy Virgin Cold Pressed Rose Hip Seed Serum. I learned about this wonder product from my pal Abby at New London Pharmacy. She told me it’s excellent for fading scars (acne scars, too!) as well as helps reverse sun damage and prevent wrinkles. One of her cashiers had some severe discoloration on her face and after about a year of use, it’s basically all gone. I’ll be slathering this on my hyperpigmentation plagued décolleté. Check it out HERE.

ABBY FAZIO Posted by CrushworthyMoms on Monday, April 16, 2012We had the best time visiting Abby at her New London Pharmacy, what a different experience it was than or normal visit to a Duane Reade or your local CVS. It was very clear to us that Abby had a love and a passion for what she does and she really cares about her customer’s experience and well being. She exudes knowledge of beauty and health that is obvious just by looking at her and she only stocks her store with products that she hand picks and believes in. You know with her you are getting the best of the best. It brings back the neighborhood feeling that is often lost in a big city. We are making it a monthly visit to the New London Pharmacy and wish there were more places like this in New York. |

New London Pharmacy – my new favorite discovery! April 10, 2012 | By: StefOne of the things I miss most about living in a walking-friendly city is the beauty of stumbling upon a new shopping find. Tyna and I used to love nothing more then roaming the Philadelphia streets making discoveries. It was on one of these roams that we found one of our favorite shops ever. It was part pharmacy, part beauty supply store, part exotic world market. We felt like we uncovered a jewel. We’d walk the isles for hours, buying makeup (both cheap and high end), drugstore sundries, finds from overseas, perfume oils – then run home and begin testing everything immediately. I honestly think it was the roots for the blog you’re looking at right now. I think I would have nearly fainted had we stumbled upon New London Pharmacy. |

I Can’t Stop Slathering Sanofi Aventis Avibon on My Face By: Danielle of The Style and Beauty DoctorSeriously, Avibon is the greasiest, most medicine-smelling creme that I cannot wait to lube up my face with every night. Sanofi Aventis Avibon is a retinol creme from France, and I received a coveted tube from my new skincare pal Abby from New London Pharmacy in Chelsea. Abby would tweet me telling me the hard-to-keep-stocked vitamin A potion was back on the shelves and I’d be all like “huh? what’s that?”. Rule #1: always listened up to ANYTHING Abby has to say about product. She travels the world bringing the best of the best that you can’t find in these here 50 states to her shop on 23rd and 8th. She knows her stuff.

Paper & String. What's Good Your Hood. Clean MachineThe New London is one of those fabulous drugstore-meets-apothecary mergers that are done better in NYC than anywhere else. The New London is product heaven for a well-furnished bath or shower: the selection of high-quality hair care, skin care, and fragrance products is well curated and displayed. You will find great brands such as Kerastase, Moroccan Oil, Bumble, and Frederic Fekkai, but also less widely distributed brands such as Rahua, REN, I Coloniali, Aromatherapy Associates, and Roger & Gallet. Ms. Paper selected this amazing Baxter Body Wash in lime/pomegranate for her shower kit ($15). It smells great and looks good, too.

Our first press of 2012Our first press of 2012 At New London Pharmacy on Eighth Avenue in Chelsea, owner Abby Fazio has expanded her medical offerings in order to compete with three nearby Duane Reades. Three years ago, she leased the second floor to complement her 3,800-square-foot ground-floor space, and she recently added a “closed door” pharmacy for patients dealing with HIV and cancer. New London also has a nutritionist and private counselors on staff. “I want to be a store you go to for health, not to buy milk—that's for the supermarket,” said Ms. Fazio, who expected sales to be up 22%, to about $15 million, in 2011.

ATTENTION: New Law Bans Mail-Order Drug Mandates!ATTENTION: New Law Bans Mail-Order Drug Mandates!
Mom-and-pop pharmacies will be better able to compete with mail-order companies because of a bill that Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has signed into law. The bill barred insurers or employers from forcing patients to use mail-order plans for prescription drugs, except for plans negotiated by unions. Instead, consumers would be guaranteed the choice of having their prescriptions filled either through mail-order or at the local drugstore, without any added copayments or fees. In a memorandum approving the bill and a similar one related to the purchase of fertility drugs, the governor said the measures would “improve consumer convenience by expanding the options by which consumers can fill their drug prescriptions.” But the governor signed both bills late Monday on the condition that the Legislature would retroactively amend them to require retail pharmacies to accept the same reimbursement rates for drugs as mail-order pharmacies. The original bills required them to accept “comparable” reimbursement. A spokesman for Express Scripts, a major manager of mail-order drugs, said Tuesday that the company still believed a veto “would have better served New Yorkers,” but that the amendments would help keep the cost of prescription drugs for small businesses and consumers from “dramatically” increasing. The spokesman, Jonah Houts, said that mail-order delivery to people’s homes of drugs for chronic illnesses was still the cheapest option with the least potential for error, and that to the extent that that had been diminished, “drug costs will go up.” The retail pharmacy industry said the law was a victory for consumer choice and customer service. Ray Macioci, president of the New York City Pharmacists Society, said that especially with the rise of generic drugs, small pharmacies were capable of competing on price with large mail-order companies. “My contention has always been that mandatory programs are always anticompetitive,” Mr. Macioci said. |

NCPA/TPA Article in Today's TennesseeanDear NCPA Convention Attendee, Welcome to Nashville! We thought you'd like to see an article published today by The Tennessean, Nashville's daily newspaper, by NCPA Executive Vice President and CEO Douglas Hoey and Tennessee Pharmacists Association Executive Director Baeteena Black. We hope you enjoy it and have a great Convention! Community pharmacies fill growing needs
Americans have nearly 4 billion prescriptions filled each year but may be too busy to consider what's happening behind the pharmacy counter. So, with thousands of community pharmacists gathering in Nashville this month for an annual national meeting, here is a pop quiz. Which of the following is true of your pharmacist? A) About one in two patients does not take their medication properly, and pharmacists are a source of expert counseling. B) Prescription drugs are more important and complex than ever, and pharmacists train longer and harder than ever before to stay abreast of advances in the profession. C) Pharmacists help fill some primary care needs and often make physician referrals to patients who might not have gone to see a doctor otherwise. D) There are over 23,000 family-owned community pharmacies in the U.S. (566 in Tennessee) providing more than 300,000 jobs and generating $92.8 billion to local economies. E) All of the above. Contradictory as it may sound, all are realities of community pharmacies today. A) Too many patients are not taking their medication as prescribed. Known by pharmacists and physicians as the "adherence" problem, this costs the overall health-care system $290 billion annually and, more importantly, results in poorer health outcomes. Face-to-face consultations with community pharmacists are the best way to ensure the optimal use of medication, studies show. Some insurance companies try to persuade employers to require their employees to use mail-order pharmacies. However, studies show patients are more likely to take their medications when obtained at a community pharmacy. Many community pharmacists are offering new ways to ensure patients take their medication for optimum benefit. Sometimes it takes the form of pharmacist-patient consultations known as medication therapy management. There's also a growing move toward synchronized refills. That means one stop at the pharmacy to pick up and review one's medications, or one prompt delivery to your home - a service offered by most independent community pharmacies. B) Prescription drugs are increasingly complex, so pharmacists today must be more highly trained than ever. At least six years of college study are required to become a pharmacist, followed by annual continuing education. C) The pharmacy profession is undergoing a transformation to better meet patients' medication therapy needs. Medications and their appropriate use will always be the pharmacist's first priority. In addition, pharmacists are collaborating with other members of the health-care team, including physicians, to provide primary care services related to medication use. Immunizations are now common in pharmacies. Disease-specific patient services are growing, too. Pharmacists are providing diabetes education and helping patients achieve health-care goals such as cholesterol, blood pressure and quitting smoking. D) Community pharmacies are recognized by patients for superlative customer service and competitive prices, as demonstrated in surveys by Consumer Reports and J.D. Power & Associates. To independent community pharmacists, most patients are a name, not a number. In many rural areas, the independent pharmacy is the only pharmacy around and a true health-care resource. Independent pharmacies are a vital part of the community's fabric and contribute greatly to local health care, jobs and tax revenue. Stop in and see us. We live where you do. B. Douglas Hoey is executive vice president and CEO of the National Community Pharmacists Association. Baeteena M. Black is executive director of the Tennessee Pharmacists Association.The National Community Pharmacists Association and the Tennessee Pharmacists Association annual convention is Oct. 8-12 in Nashville. |

Room spray from Parfums de Nicholai in Fleurs d’Ete, and generous pours of Kneipp's Red Poppy and Hemp bath oil should afford you and your honey some jolly rub-a-dub-dubbing for a good while.

THE ULTIMATE RX FOR A VERY MERRY HOLIDAY: NEW LONDON LUXEby Anita Sarko |
|
New London Pharmacy mentioned in The NaturalchemystAlso, I was elated to find that Spa Week’s exclusive cosmetic sponsor is Jane Iredale! On the expert recommendation of Jessie at New London Pharmacy (she is superb at natural product recommendations), I’ve been using Jane Iredale cosmetics almost exclusively for the past year. The products are awesome, but as of now, they are only sold in spas and at New London, CO Bigelow, and Cambridge Chemists in New York. I was excited to see floating ads for Ms. Iredale’s products on the Spa Week website, as opposed to advertising for some highly toxic product, as one might usually see for an event like this. The Iredale products are mineral-based (most cosmetics are oil or water based, so as to mix well with chemicals), and opposed to many natural or organic lines available, I’ve found that Jane Iredale has a plethora of colors and complimentary products. Due to the inherent purpose of cosmetics (coloring, covering up, etc.) it’s difficult to create a fully natural product that is still effective and attractive. That said, Jane Iredale cosmetics are NOT fully natural, but they are much better for your skin than similarly priced products found in department stores. With the cosmetic industry’s lack of regulation, I can guarantee that you will find many products with “natural” labels that are actually far from natural. Remember, natural ingredients ≠ natural! I actually don’t use much makeup on a daily basis, but there are a few items I’d never leave the house without. I’m happy knowing that these items are based in minerals and not quasi-toxic chemical compounds! |
