Houston, United States - February 22, 2018 /PressCable/ —

The College Money Guys, Brannon Lloyd and Kurt Goedecke, have announced a new report titled “The 10 Deadly Mistakes People Make for College and How to Avoid Them”. The report is offered free of charge in order to help parents and their students avoid costly mistakes and to successfully navigate the college entrance experience.

The free report download can be found at http://www.thecollegemoneyguys.com/freereport

According to Lloyd, every year millions of students enter college and leave a wake of mistakes on the table because nobody ever told them what they needed to do. Today more than 50% of entering students will drop out.

Lloyd further adds, “It is so sad to see both the parents and students go through the stress and struggle of dealing with the consequences of not knowing a few key strategies. If they had only known a few simple truths upfront, they could have saved themselves a lot of grief and money.”

Kurt Goedecke, the Branch Manager of the Houston office, states that the mission of preparing this report was to start an educational funnel whereby parents first learn how to avoid the massive common mistakes that can cost tens of thousands of dollars over the course of their child’s 4-6 year college career. After this starting point, parents can then learn how to effectively navigate the maze of college preparation.

Some of these key stages include but are not limited to:

1. How to navigate the bureaucracy with the FAFSA, and other financial aid forms

2. How to find out where the scholarship and financial aid money is available

3. How to make smart choices to maximize a personal financial planning strategy

As a former Assistant Director of Admissions at Rice University, Kurt Goedecke knows how the college financial aid decisions are made from the inside out. His in depth knowledge about the admissions and financial aid processes have proven invaluable to hundreds of families over the years.

Goedecke’s concern is that “whether parents are aware or not, they’re about to enter one of the most important planning events in their lives. Some people even tell us they lie awake at night wondering how they will ever afford to pay for college.”

The goal of the free report is to begin to put parents’ minds at ease and walk them through the college financial planning process with confidence. If parents desire more resources, The College Money Guys continue the process of education through free live workshops.

The College Money Guys have over 30 years of combined expertise in helping parents and their students around the globe go to college without expensive debt or robbing the retirement nest egg. Lloyd and Goedecke pride themselves on their high quality service and their ability to help clients secure generous aid to get their kids into the school of their choice.

Putting skin recovery at the heart of beauty care

Putting skin recovery at the heart of beauty care

Skin recovery took center stage at a gathering of dermatologists, cosmetic surgeons and aesthetic practitioners in Taguig City, where a discussion on barrier care connected skincare science with the experiences and professional interests of the medical community. Held on October 21 at the Intramuros Tent of Manila House Private Club in Bonifacio Global City, the roundtable discussion brought together the Pan Pacific Aesthetic Institute Foundation, Lamelex, Golden Visa Central and Manila House. Their collaboration provided a setting for scientific learning, professional exchange and conversations about opportunities beyond clinical practice. For the beauty discussion, the emphasis was on caring for the skin barrier, particularly after dermatologic and aesthetic procedures. Dr. Finesse Angelica Evangelista addressed this in her presentation, “The Science of Recovery: Optimizing Barrier Repair in Post-Procedure and Compromised Skin.” Her discussion underscored the importance of skin barrier integrity in supporting recovery. It also placed barrier-focused care within a professional conversation about the needs of skin following procedures or when its condition is compromised. That focus is central to Lamelex’s approach. The brand presented its multi-lamellar vesicle technology, a skincare delivery approach designed to support the skin’s natural barrier structure and in­gre­­­­d­ient delivery. Its professional skincare offe­rings combine formulations and protocols intended for barrier-focused care. The technology formed part of the brand’s showcase, which included professional skincare products, testers, merchandising and educational materials. These gave participants opportunities to explore its approach to skin barrier care alongside the scientific discussion. Medical professionals also received product kits for further exploration and evaluation in their respective practices. Catherine Andres-Gamo, chief exe­cutive officer of Pretty Skin Lamelin Philippines, expanded the conversation from products to advocacy. Sha­ring Lamelex’s commitment to scientific education, skincare innovation and collaboration with the medical community, she encouraged participants to become skin barrier advocates. Her message called for greater awareness of barrier-first skincare in clinical practice, linking the brand’s educational efforts with the professionals who assess and care for patients’ skin. The evening brought that advocacy into direct conversation with dermatologists, cosmetic surgeons and other aesthetic practitioners. The foundation, meanwhile, provided a platform for professional exchange within the aesthetic medical community. Manila House hosted the gathering, bringing professionals from different fields into a shared setting for learning and relationship building. Alongside the skincare discussions, Golden Visa Central founder and president Vicky Luis introduced international investment opportunities and wealth diversification. Her presentation offered participants perspectives on long-term financial planning beyond their clinical work, extending the evening’s scope to their broader professional and personal interests. The gathering linked these different areas through partnerships among the foundation’s leadership, Golden Visa Central, Manila House and the Lamelex team. Each contributed expertise to a forum that combined clinical interests with opportunities for professional growth. For Lamelex, the continuing direction is to build its community of skin barrier advocates through scientific education and continued collaboration with medical professionals. The roundtable provided one setting for that exchange, bringing its products, technology and barrier-care message to practitioners who could explore and evaluate them for use in their respective practices.

Jewelry for every side of a woman

Jewelry for every side of a woman

Jewelry passed from mother to daughter carries more than gemstones and gold. For designer Kristine Dee, it also holds the stories behind each piece, including her mother’s purchase to celebrate a hard-earned business deal. Those personal connections inspire “Modern Heirloom,” one of three chapters in “The Woman Within,” her collection exploring the different sides of a woman through fine jewelry. Its three chapters, “Modern Heirloom,” “Quiet Strength” and “Playful Femininity,” move from sentiment to assurance to joy. Each reflects a side of a woman that Dee has observed in her clients and herself. “They try out other styles which are not their usual, and the choice follows their emotions, what they felt at that time, how that particular jewelry piece made them feel when worn. Each capsule collection shows the different versions we, as women, find ourselves in.” For “Modern Heirloom,” Dee draws on her mother Elizabeth’s practice of passing jewelry to her daughters, along with the memories behind it. Among them is a piece Elizabeth bought after closing a business deal she had worked hard to secure. “It is not just the piece that she shared, but the story that comes with them,” Dee says. That sense of continuity takes shape in classic gemstones and versatile designs. Multicolored sapphire and diamond necklaces hang from substantial gold-ball chains. A pearl necklace features diamonds and a detachable kunzite centerpiece, allowing the wearer to move between dressier and more casual looks. “Quiet Strength” turns toward architecture, emphasizing line, proportion and structure. Smooth gold surfaces, curves and carefully placed diamonds give rings and cuffs their presence. Dee’s background in industrial design informs this attention to form and how a piece sits on the body. “Each millimeter matters,” she says. A softer mood emerges in “Playful Femininity.” Mint tourmaline, pink spinel and diamonds appear in linked elements that sway with the wearer, while a coordinating ring allows for stacking. Elsewhere, a hand-carved mother-of-pearl ribbon flows into waves of rubies and diamonds. Across the collection, gemstones are set in 14-karat and 18-karat white, yellow and rose gold. Many designs bear the names of loyal clients, relatives and friends, extending the personal connections behind the jewelry. For Dee, their place is in everyday wardrobes. Statement necklaces can accompany a tank top and jeans or a dress, while rings and cuffs can be layered to suit the day. “The best way to style fine jewelry for a woman is based on her lifestyle and personality, so she can reach for them day after day, comfortably and confidently, and wear them in more ways than one.” The collection is available at the Kristine Dee showroom in BGC, Taguig City, with resizing and customization offered. A Power Plant Mall pop-up runs from Nov. 7 to Jan. 28, 2027, bringing the collection’s expressions of memory, strength and joy into women’s daily choices.
