Someone told me I'd be the perfect candidate for the popular "photo facial," so I went to check it out. Before we were done discussing what the procedure eventually would involve, they gave me a product sample.

The skin game: It isn't pretty
Someone told me I'd be the perfect candidate for the popular "photo facial," so I went to check it out. Before we were done discussing what the procedure eventually would involve, they gave me a product sample. What they didn't tell me was that I'd wake up to a new face -- the right side of it covered in broken capillaries -- and a nightmare of solutions.Jacqui Phillips: Your tip source

Jacqui Phillips: Celebs don't let summer mess with their skin, why should you?
Are you sad that summer is over? Do you feel that your skin has taken a real toll from the sun's harmful rays? I just may have the solution: ultrasonic microdermabrasion. Sure, it's a mouthful. But it's also a wonderful way to reboot your skin to its normal glowing state. Jacqui Phillips: Dark circles? I have the solution!
Dark under-eye circles can be a woman's worst nightmare. But if you look, you can find the right solution. I recently had the chance to look in a unique place: backstage at the "It's On With Alexa Chung Show" on MTV. I love working at there because I always find new, wonderful products to try -- without having to buy them. Then I can tell YOU the results.
