Hello Nassau! Let’s Talk What’s New & What’s Next

Farmingdale is tackling parking, fire gear, and Main Street headaches.

Farmingdale Village approved $1.5 million in bonds for two practical upgrades: a new public parking lot on Division Street and replacement air packs for the fire department. We’re also looking at Nassau County’s No. 1 ranking on a New York best-counties list, with the obvious catch: great schools, parks, and amenities still come with high housing costs.

Farmingdale Approves $1.5M for Parking and Fire Gear

Farmingdale Village approved $1.5 million in bonds for a new public parking lot and firefighter equipment. The plan includes buying 141 Division Street for parking, replacing air packs for the fire department, and opening Howitt Middle School’s lot to the public during evening and weekend hours for a $1 fee.

Skincare built by longevity scientists — not marketers

Most skincare addresses what happens after your skin ages: the appearance of wrinkles, loss of visible firmness, and dullness. But four PhD longevity scientists asked a different question: what if you could target the cellular process that causes visible aging in the first place?

Their answer is OS-01, the first peptide scientifically proven to address senescent cells — the damaged "zombie cells" that accumulate with age and accelerate visible skin decline. The result: the first topical clinically validated to address visible skin aging at the source. In a double-blind 12-week clinical study of OS-01 FACE:

• 100% of users showed improved overall appearance

• 96% improved visible firmness

• 87% showed improvement in the appearance of wrinkles

• Barrier strength improved 15%

This isn't skincare with better marketing. It's skincare with better science. And real results.
