		<description><![CDATA[Naturally occurring in the human body, HA production declines as we age. This contributes to the loss of moisture; the skin becomes thinner and less supple. The loss of HA may also impair the skin's ability to repair itself and possibly affects the synthesis and deposition pattern of other skin matrix components.

Hyaluronic Acid is found in all of our connective tissue. And recently, scientists have discovered that by supplementing it, our joints, hearts -- and our skin -- can benefit tremendously.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Reality:  Zits aren't caused by dirt. Contrary to what you may have seen in advertising, pores don't get blocked from the top down due to "impurities". Rather, the walls of a pore stick together deep within the skin, starting acne formation. Far from keeping acne at bay, frequent washing may actually irritate pores and cause them to become more clogged. A washcloth can add even more irritation. The best bet is to wash your face gently with clean, bare hands, and only wash twice a day. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I became a member of MakeupTalk forum. I LOVE posting on forums, and not because I want to promote myself or my blog (although that's a nice benefit if other members like my posts), but because I really, honestly like giving advice, tips, tricks and product reviews. It's the reason I started blogging in the first place. I was working in an industry that cut me off from the beauty world, and I desparately needed to connect to my makeup-loving sister (and brothers).]]></description>
