During the month of October, when you purchase Dermelect Cosmeceuticals’ BCA special-edition Resurface Stem Cell Reconstructing Serum, the company will donate $15 from each $75 bottle sold. Using stem cells extracted from the Swiss Alpine rose, the serum promises to increase your skin’s potential to regenerate new, healthy skin cells; protects skin from UV stress; prevents the formation of wrinkles; and reduces fine lines. All that and help young women battling breast cancer. What’s not to love?

Pity the plight of the beauty blogger: Each week, the newest products appear on her desk, all promising younger-looking skin, tighter pores, plumper lips, lusher lashes, frizz-free hair—in short, a healthier, more glamorous life. Dutifully, Westchester Magazine Associate Editor Katie O’Donnell tests (or investigates) each item or service featured in WM’s Beauty Buzz blog. Life is beautiful indeed.
