Hi Perry. Valerie so good to have you back. Hello Valerie.

Valerie so good to have you back off the trade show circuit. Yep, I'm also glad to be back.

Yeah and be back from vacation but we'll get to that. We tell you what we're going to cover today.

On today's show, we've got a number of good questions.

First, can you mix your vitamins and acids?

And we're talking about skin care there, not your... mix your

psychedelics and acid and we're talking about skin care there not your psychedelic beverages

right exactly

number two we'll talk about how and whether products like Defenage and O2 Skin Pro powder actually work is

ORG mineral face peel a gimmick how long should it take you to see results from a nifty new skin care device and

Are you actually rusting not aging anymore? Oh my gosh that doesn't feel good no way it does not but before we get to all of that

Valerie last time I spoke with you you were in Las Vegas at Cosma Prof?

I was.

Cosma Prof is an annual trade show put on by the Professional Beauty Association,

and it is really focused on finished consumer product goods, much like many of the brands we see in stores.

They do have some small sections for manufacturers and packaging companies, but primarily it's supposed to be about finished

products.
