Beauty Tip of the Month - December 2008


One of the easiest ways to keep us feeling and looking youthful is by having healthy radiant skin that glows. The skin around our eyes is the thinnest on our entire body; it has no oil glands of its own and doesn’t hold moisture well. Because of its delicacy, this skin needs a specialized moisturizer, one that it can absorb and that isn’t so heavy it pulls on this fragile skin. Unfortunately, we can’t stop the aging process, and many of us will have to deal with wrinkles at some point. However, there are many ways to prevent and treat wrinkles. One of the easiest ways is to treat them right from your home using homemade wrinkle cream.

We want simple, natural solutions that provide results. Are there alternatives to cosmetic eye creams? Yes, there are, and you can start right in your kitchen.

Be aware that the eyes are very sensitive, so before you apply anything around their immediate vicinity, you should do a skin test to check for allergies. One homemade wrinkle cream that has proven to work is an Avocado Cream. All you need is almond oil and avocado slices. You mix these two ingredients and make it into a paste. You can use this around the eyes and on the entire face. You rinse it off with warm water, and voila!

Premium homemade wrinkle cream!

If you fear the use of homemade products….ask Santa to put a tube of your favorite store bought eye cream in your stocking. There are dozens of these; it may take a bit of trial and error to see which one your skin likes most and which one does the best job of coming through on its claims.

After you have spread the cream on your own eyes….spread the word to your daughters….if they start taking care of their eyes while they are young they’ll be ever so grateful later.
