Actifirm Gives Your Skin a Fresh Start

Actifirm is awesome. And I'm not saying that just because they gave me a free sample. I've tested my share of skin care products and Actifirm makes my skin look, feel, and smell like I just came from a spa. The 30-day "Doc Box Starter Kit" ($48) includes travel-size versions of four of Actifirm's most popular, botanicals-based potions. Wanna know how they work?

Step 1: Actifirm Antioxidant Cleanser is a gentle, 2-in-1 cleanser especially good for acne-prone skin. The antioxidant effects of key ingredients like pomegranate, grapefruit, and Japanese green tea soothe and cleanse the skin while removing surface oils.

Step 2: Actifirm Z-Peel looks a bit intimidating in its mock syringe container. But there's nothing scary about this peel made with Actifirm's patented exfoliating enzyme from a Japanese mushroom and 14 other botanicals -- including extracted oils from lavender, coriander, and Roman chamomile flowers.

Step 3: Actifirm Renovation Serum helps activate healthy cells, nourish, moisturize, and erase fine lines and wrinkles. Japanese green tea and licorice extract soothe and protect your skin from free radical damage; and aloe has a calming and comforting effect.

Step 4: Actifirm Actimoist Booster is my favorite of the products. Magically, it targets only the areas of your face that need moisture. So it doesn't leave your T-Zone area shiny and over-moisturized. Actimoist Booster is perfume-free, can be used year round, and is appropriate for all skin types.

Actifirm is available online and at Exhale Spa locations.

Conway Discount Clothing Chain Closing in New York City

(Tracy E. Hopkins) It's the end of a budget shopping era. Conway discount stores are closing in New York City . As of this weekend, a sign on the sole Herald Square location (34th Street btwn 7th and 8th Ave) says the store will close in "7 Days." Before I relocated to the Big Apple, I was introduced to the discount chain while on a bus trip from Baltimore. I recall the first time I saw Conway's signature pink bags carried by hurried shoppers in midtown. And Miss Foster, the trip organizer and a bargain hunter from way back, took me to the store for the first time. Conway store in the Fulton Mall./Tracy E. Hopkins When I moved here in 1994, my love affair with Conway continued. I furnished my first apartment with discount knick-knacks and home goods from the store. And much to my chagrin, in hindsight, I curated most of my wardrobe for my first full-time job from the long-shuttered 42nd Street and Third Avenue store. One regretful ensemble: Lime green and
