Dear Charlie:

What are your favorite "Must-have" products?
-Tired of worthless creams
Rebecca, 30 years old

Dear Rebecca,

I too have tried many products that don't deliver what they promise. As a result, I dedicate much of my time to personally testing skin care products, and then writing a column exclusively dedicated to those that really work! I suggest you sign up for my emails, which will talk about a specific item, and then directs you to an online Store, where I will offer a discount with each purchase. Orders over $50.00 are shipped free of charge. Read about it one day, start looking better the next! It's a win-win situation, and you will always know what you buy is truly effective!

Dear Charlie:

What are these "Gummy Bear Breast Implants" I keep hearing about?
-Sounds like eye-candy
Patricia, 41 years old

Dear Tricia,

Mention the words, Gummy Bears, and visions of sugarplums may dance in your head. That is, if you are thinking of the traditional meaning of the words, gummy bears, as in 'sweet stuff'. There is however, a new genre of bears, so to speak, that has surfaced in the plastic surgery industry. Pretty sweet actually. They are the new cohesive breast implants that are all the rage, especially to women who refuse to submit their bodies to saline implants. Silicone breast implants have been around for years, but the new, cohesive state-of-the art implants, fondly known as Gummies, have entered the playing field. They are softer, safer and oh-so-touchable... without the worry of deflations that saline implants are known for. What can I say besides, "Yummy!"
