Beauty Marked! A Lightweight Cuticle Cream

FabSugar — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 15:42:56 PST

Last week I asked you all to go beauty marking to find me a lightweight cuticle cream to have in my purse and apply to my cuticles around the clock. I recommended this Kiehl's Imperiale Moisturizing Cuticle Treatment, $19, for nighttime nourishing, but what about daytime nourishing? My cuticles are ready to see what you all found!

Beauty Mark #3, also found by flutterpie, is this Sephora Cuticle Care Pen. I like the idea of a slim shaped pen and this claims to: relieve dry cuticles without the mess of drippy oils and greasy creams. This soothing "pen" sends a wash of nail and cuticle nourishing emollients exactly where you want it.

Is anyone else a cuticle picker? OK, it's kinda gross but it is a bad habit of mine. To prevent this nasty habit, I get manicures on a regular basis and keep my cuticles happy and moisturized. I use this Kiehls Imperiale Moisturizing Cuticle Treatment, $19, as a nighttime treatment and I love it. But with harsh winter weather upon us, I need a lightweight cuticle cream I can carry with me to apply at all times.

Let's all go beauty marking to find a lightweight cuticle cream! Be sure to come back and tell me when your Beauty Marks are up, or just tag your choices with lightweight cuticle cream. To learn what a Beauty Mark is and how to make one, click here.

DrSugar Answers: Acne Meds and Pregnancy?

DrSugar — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 04:30:35 PDT

DrSugar is in the house! And she's answering your health-related questions.

Dear DrSugar,
I have acne and after several years of tinkering, I've found the right combination of several prescription products daily to control it - benzoyl peroxide 6%, Solodyn, dapsone, Retin-A, clindamycin, and the list goes on. While I'm not pregnant now, I'd like to try and conceive in the next three years or so and I understand I shouldn't be using these products while pregnant or breastfeeding. Do you have any recommendations on what I should do? I was considering trying Accutane (prior to trying to get pregnant, of course), but I know it has serious side effects.
-Worried About Spots

As someone who's been trying to get pregnant, I've thoroughly researched this topic and am so glad you asked this question so I can share some knowledge with you! I'm glad that you’ve found a system that works for you in terms of your acne now. But since you’re interested in conceiving in the next few years, I will share with you information on Accutane as well as what is considered safe for acne treatment while pregnant, so keep on reading.
