Nutra Luxe MD PLUS has introduced a chemical and preservative free Anti-Aging Skin Care product line for Men.

SalonContact.com is an online searchable database of hair salons, nail shops, tanning salons and spas nationwide that also includes employee photos and credentials.
“This is the perfect complement to businesses that already have Web sites,” said Ben Derin, president of Salon Contact. “You can link to your Web site and attract even more attention to it.”
Derin said it’s also an excellent substitute for salons without a Web site because it instantly gives them presence on the Internet.
Similar to MySpace, businesses easily create profiles and can post photos on their page. Searchable by geographic location, SalonContact.com is also like Yellow Pages because each listing is included in a nationwide directory marketed to potential customers. But unlike either site, SalonContact.com makes it possible for salons to create customizable coupons.
“Name and phone number just isn’t going to cut it,” said Derin. “On SalonContact.com the customer can get a lot of information about the salon and stylists, this in turn will help them make a more informed decision about the company they’re going to give their business to.”
