LA PEAU by San Francisco beauty blogger  Anita Rivas

La Peau a three piece skincare regimen that delivers healthy beautiful skin.

I’ve always admired Jennifer Aniston’sEva Longoria and Gloria Estefan’s amazing skin.  And if you admire great skin than you’re going to want to try La Peau – La Peau is a three piece skincare regimen that contains powerful antioxidants and anti-aging properties – in clinical studies by Edel Therapeutics it is proven that La Peau leads the path in cell renewal and reversing the signs of premature age, using La Peau your results will be firmer, more radiant skin in 28 days.  I heard first hand that Eva Longoria purchased several pieces to give away to her friends as gifts – wish I was one of her friends don’t you? Personally I’ve been using La Peau, and an added bonus is that you can layer it over your favorite serums. It is recommended that La Peau be part of your nightly skincare regimen for 8 days the results will amaze you.

La Peau is the cream everyone is raving about, used by the world’s most beautiful women, models, actresses, socialites and everyone in-between.

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!

 

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 Tennesseean

Dear 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.

"...One more thing. They are getting tired of me playing around with the tester for Julisis Facial Oil Serum over at New London Pharmacy. Julisis ($170) is an opulent mix of argan oil, white Clementine, South African Marula oil, and liquid diamond essence, which has to be a girl’s best friend. If you’re due a tax refund, treat yourself.

New London Pharmacy

Window of the Week! This Chelsea apothecary carries homeopathic remedies, but this window shows they’ve got some homo-pathic goods too: Tom of Finland’s perfume for men. In case you’re wondering, the man-scent smells of “crumpled leaf, suede, metal, pepperwood, tonka bean and musks.”

...My sentimental attachment to New London Pharmacyis well chronicled; there I found super hardy guy-girl florals: Geo. Trumper's Violet Shaving Soap in a Bowl and Jardin du Nil, an idiosyncratic love potion from Maitre Parfumer et Gantier.  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.

If you're on Team Edward—or just want to go sans tan while maximizing your sun protection—a good slathering of Invisible Zinc should do the trick. The new-to-the-U.S.-market cult-favorite Aussie sun care collection uses micro-fine zinc oxide to create a physical—not chemical—barrier between skin and the sun. The broad spectrum creams pack some star power, too: Jerry Hall and Georgia May Jagger front the brand's latest ad campaign, relaying the message that sun protection is important for women of all ages.

Samurai Shopper | The Impossible Cream By S.S. FAIR | APRIL 20, 2010, 3:30 PM

... haven’t found 100% organic liquid foundation available outside the Twilight Zone. Organic Glam’s Luminous Anti-oxidant Sheer Tint with no synthetic, petroleum-based ingredients is over 90% natural–as good as it gets. It’s sensational too. Organic Glam is from England, an offshoot of the Organic Pharmacy, whose Carrot Butter removes all traces of make-up. Both are available at New London Pharmacy in Chelsea and the Organic Pharmacy in Beverly Hills. Try their Eye Jewels shimmers, liquid eyeliners, and bronzers; they’re amazing and stupendously pricey too.

New London also carries Jane Iredale, a respectable, natural line with a few standouts like Longest Lash mascara in Charcoal Grey, a great color. Pommisst is Iredale’s purse-sized hydrating spray with Pomegranate; it stops your face from wilting during the day....

New London Pharmacy mentioned in The Naturalchemyst

Also, 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!
