One morning last week, I woke up with extremely puffy eyes. This isn’t how I regularly greet the day, so at first I thought this was just another joy of ageing.
Then I remembered that my hormones had convinced me to ingest a LOT of salt the day before. The result was fluid retention, most of which seemed to be trapped in my eyes. Enhanced no doubt because I’m a stomach sleeper.
For your eyes only
Have you ever contemplated the worst-case scenario of what you would choose if you were limited to just one make-up item for the rest of your life? As a pale skin, fair-haired gal, my choice would definitely be mascara. Without it, my blonde lashes are basically invisible and my eyes just kind of fade away.
Invest in your skin today
If you look almost anywhere these days, you’ll find ways to “solve” many skincare issues. Whether you want to lighten pigmentation thanks to too much sun, remove the “11s” between your brows that make you look permanently angry or lift what is falling, there seems to be a product or treatment that can “reverse” the ageing process and / or undo damage you may have inflicted on your skin during the folly of youth.
