Quick-fix for tired eyes
Like lots of my friends, I am feeling the after-effects of a hectic start to the year. I look as tired as I feel, especially around the eyes, and wondered if you could recommend a “quick fix” boost to my looks and energy levels?
My best “must pass on” New Year discovery is a brilliant new topical cream which does just what it says on the label to give tired eyes a real boost. Sudden Change Under-Eye lift is made in America, where it is recommended by dermatologists.
The main active agent is hyaluronic acid which is increasingly used in eye cream to regenerate skin elasticity and this cream not only works, but is also great value at just £2.99 for 10 applications plus p&p from US supplement specialists, Victoria Health (0800 413596).
Use the cream as directed on the packet and for even better results, use it alongside Oculax; which are clever little acupoint patches that you apply around the eye socket to relax and rejuvenate the entire face. Made from extracts of sage root and chrysanthemum and newly available from the same supplier, these cost £19.95 for 10 applications. Again, use as directed on the box.
In truth, there are no “quick fix” energy boosters and you need to take a longer term approach to building up your immune system to get you through the rest of winter. The supplement I rely on to do this job is Simba, an immune modulator and thus energy enhancing supplement made from the African potato which is available in the UK from The Little Herbal Company (01484 685100), The maintenance dose is two capsules a day.
