Why would using a combination sunscreen / insect repellent be a bad idea? It seems like it would be a great idea, and I love everything 2-in-1. Dr. Schultz let me know in his tip of the week why that might not be the best idea. Since you need to constantly reapply your sunscreen, you end up reapplying a large quantity of insect repellent. Which will keep the bugs at bay, however the harsh chemicals are not good for us especially when used in large doses.

Salon Capri 406 Legacy Place, Dedham, MA 02026
Before After Rear View
Throughout my college years, I have always had long hair that I either straighten or put in a pony tail. I do spend time on my hair, but not a great amount of time. Immediately after graduating in May, I had a friend of a friend cut about 5 inches off of my hair. I have been wearing my hair slightly pass my shoulders since then. When the opportunity to review Salon Capri arose, I was so excited because I knew my shoulder length hair needed some style to it. Ok-to be fair I have to admit that I was a bit nervous walking into this salon. I had researched the salon and I found that it was a highly rated salon. I had a preconceived notion that the salon would have beautiful hairdressers and stylists who would look down at my messy hair. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that although the staff was very vogue, they were all SO friendly and welcoming.
The amika™ styler features 100% ceramic plates (unlike other styling tools that claim to feature ceramic plates but just have a thin coating). Ceramic plates radiate far-infrared heat, preserving moisture in the hair shaft and protecting the hair cuticle from damage. In fact, regular use of the amika™ styler results in healthier hair.
Far Infrared Heat softens your hair faster, works to seal in the hair’s cuticle, locks in hair color, and gives you the same silky, glossy results you expect from your professional hair salon. Your final result is incredibly shiny, silky, static-free, no-frizz, manageable hair with unlimited styling potential.
Features & Benefits: + 100% ceramic plates + infrared and negative-ion technology + ultra-light weight and intuitive design + ready to use in 10 seconds + superior professional hair styling at home

* Cyclomethicone is the highest regarded silicone-based hydrator found in most moisturizers on the market today
* Ceramides highly moisturize the skin. Found naturally in the skin's lipid barrier.
* Cholesterol is a natural lipid in the body that helps skin seal in moisture and helps maintain the skin's natural "glow"

Aventus
Olivier CREED, sixth-generation master perfumer of France, presents in America—before all other countries—his latest creation, called AVENTUS, a fragrance for men (and adored by women) honoring traits of strength, power, vision, and success.
CREED Aventus is inspired by the dramatic life of a great, historic emperor, who waged war, peace and romance on terms he set, riding to power on horseback. The superb ingredients of CREED Aventus become, in the hands of Olivier CREED, a worldly and must-have blend for the man or woman who treasures enduring value in fragrance.
Fruit-Rich and Fresh
Royal but never imposing, CREED Aventus is made with ingredients hand-selected worldwide by Erwin CREED, the seventh generation of CREED and its future head. Essences he chose were shipped to CREED's workshop in France, where father and son created the blend using hand production methods instituted at the founding of CREED in 1760. The result: a fragrance of stature and conquest.
Top notes: Finest black currant, Italian bergamot, Calville Blanc apples, and a burst of royal pineapple.
Middle notes: Exquisite roses with a complement of dry birch, Moroccan jasmine plus a hint of patchouli.
Base notes: Musk with a touch of oak moss for depth, then ambergris and a dab of vanilla.
The Aventus bottle is rugged black leather surrounding glass. The classic CREED "flask" design dates to the era of the king who inspired the fragrance. The silver emblem of horse and rider evokes unbounded adventure and spirit
