The Changing Face of Beauty
Not long ago, in the previous century/millennium, women and men aged gracefully. They proudly accepted the fate of their faces; no one was bothered by wrinkles, crevices or even gray hair. The flower children are surely to blame. Those hippies of yesteryear firmly believed that they would always look like they did when they were swinging through the 60's, 70's and 80's. It was when the drug companies formed an alliance with opportunistic physicians did they realize how desperately people clung to their youthful appearance. They began to formulate lotions and potions, injections that plump and paralyze and other modalities that would prop up aging faces and satisfy the longing caused by a nation preoccupied with looking young.

Comfortable Bowling Shoes Can Make Your Game
There are really only two needed items to play the game of bowling. The first is the ball and the second is the bowling shoes.

Coming Clean The Facial Story-Beauty
To remove dirt, excess oil, perspiration, and makeup, most women of color should cleanse the face twice a day. The tools you select for washing are important. Think gentle. First, choose a mild, nonirritating cleanser. Avoid cleansers that contain abrasive granules for exfoliation. These harsh particles don't clean out pores and they can aggravate and irritate the skin, causing redness, or worse, darkening of the skin or hyperpigmentation. If you have acne, scrubbing with the granules can actually dramatically worsen an acne outbreak. Also, steer clear of acne puffs, loofah sponges, or rough washcloths. They will only irritate the skin.

Premier Pigments and American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics Launch New Web Store and Internet Service Center
Arlington, TX (PRWEB) May 2, 2007 -- Premier Pigments & American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics, the world's most trusted source of quality permanent cosmetics supplies and global leader in permanent cosmetics education, today announced plans to launch a major renovation to their website and online store and customer support services. CEO Sandi Hammons announced their decision to partner with software giant QBOS (Quick Business Operating System) to upgrade their online service offering. "We feel the combination of our existing market dominance along with QBOS's technical expertise will make our Internet store the undisputed leader in permanent cosmetics supply companies," said Hammons.
Internet exposure is critical to success in our business, the high cost of traditional customer service along with increasing demands by customers for 24 hour service has made the online store an integral part of our marketing and distribution efforts. This new technology will allow us to offer direct-to-consumer distribution with a high level of service and support. Once customers place an initial order, they are issued an ID and password that will allow them to login, look at their order and payment history, track their orders through UPS as soon as the order is processed, sign up for training classes and specialty workshops and add or change their billing and shipping information all from the convenience of their computer and at any time they wish.
"The new web store is already in place and we will soon be upgrading our website with a brand new look. We see this as an effective yet affordable way to generate publicity and online visibility," said Josh Armstrong, chief of Graphic Design and Webmaster for Premier and the American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics Group. "Given the level of service we will be able to provide and our current market dominance, we will become the Gold Standard for permanent cosmetics education and supplies on the Internet. This makes a logical addition to our current semi-custom websites we offer to our technician customers. They provide us with their photo, a biography and a description of their services and we build a customized graphic intensive dynamic website to help them market their permanent cosmetics business. All this is available at a fraction of the cost of a typical custom website. Those who are interested can get more information at Premier Pigments Website."
Premier Pigments & American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics will use QBOS's specialized tracking system to help their expanding network of AIIC Certified Master Technicians and AIIC Certified Instructors to develop additional and residual income by referring prospective customers and students to Premiers products and services. Premier Operations Manager, Steve Pulliam explained: QBOS is highly customizable and offers us the ability to create offering specifically for our customers. Its tracking capabilities allow us to more accurately anticipate the needs of our customers and provide a much higher level of service. We fell our changes will level the playing field for technicians, clinics and trainers of all sizes and will be the backbone of more service enhancements planned for the future."
The new Premier Pigments website will be search engine optimized and enabled with such advanced features as dynamic Flash animation, an interactive map to locate AIIC Certified Master Technicians and AIIC Certified Instructors. Each release will be able to be categorized geographically and tagged with up to ten subjects and genres. Customers can elect to receive detailed distribution reports that show how many times their releases were accessed, downloaded and printed; the most popular search terms used to find their releases; and a geographic breakdown of readers.
The new Premier Pigments website will launch the end of May, 2007. If you are an existing Premier Pigments customer or a former student of the American institute of Intradermal Cosmetics, you may already have an account in place. Call Customer Service at (800) 642-1096 to retrieve your ID and password to access your account.
