When it comes to weight loss, there are two types of people: the slow starters, who need a push to jump-start their diet or work-out, and those who get lazy once they see they’re about to achieve their ideal weight.
I’ve been surrounded by people trying to lose some weight, either after pregnancy or because of a really good appetite. After attending a press launch for Sexy Solutions (and being very impressed with the weight loss of Raymond Gutierrez and Georgina Wilson) I had to tell friends that I think they should set a consultation to see what could jump-start their diet.
It dawned on me that sometimes the hard part is really just to get the ball rolling; in this case, get the fat burning.
Sexy Solutions has the latest technology to burn fat. It also makes available a dietitian to orient you on the right things to eat, and you can even have them prepare their food for you.
Sexy Solutions is a one-stop shop for losing weight. It is for those who want to lose weight or to achieve their ideal weight. If you don’t like what you hear, you can just walk away. No commitment. And to those with loved ones trying to lose weight, drag them, bribe them if you have to. Sexy Solutions works.
Sexy Solutions is at Suite 912, Medical Plaza Bldg., Amorsolo cor. Dela Rosa Sts., Legaspi Village; and Unit 23, G/F, South of Market Residences (SoMa), 26th St. cor. 11th Ave., Bonifacio Global City, Taguig; tel. 8107399.
Eye creams
When it comes to facial products, I test a lot, even though I have my
favorites. When it comes to eye creams, however, as soon as a jar is finished, I buy a different product to use.
Luckily, this Christmas, I got two jars of eye cream. The one I’m using now is Lancome’s Renergie Yeux Multiple Lift.
I opted to use Lancome first since I am a loyal user of its Bi-Facil eye makeup remover. I have tested a dozen of removers but, so far, Bi-Facil works on me best. I love that it has double anti-aging action, a firmer eye contour that minimizes lines, and diminishes dark circles. My eyes look more luminous and I don’t have to use concealer, which is such a relief to me since every time I dab on concealer, I imagine what it does to my skin and the wrinkles it is causing.
It is very important we take care of the skin under our eye since it is a very sensitive area; it’s prone to wrinkles and dryness. Ordinary moisturizers and oils can damage our under-eye, that’s why it is important to use the right product.
The ring finger should be used when applying eye creams since it is the weakest of the five. Gently dab the cream in a circular motion to promote blood circulation.
When it comes to taking care of your under-eye, do it regularly, so keep your skin well moisturized at all times to keep wrinkles at bay.
Kitchen measures
The kitchen is a gold mine of beauty remedies. Here are tips to help eliminate eye bags:
Slice cucumber or raw potatoes and place them on your eyes for about 20 minutes. Or, put two humid tea bags, still warm, for 15 minutes. Tea contains tannin and polyphenon that have a calming effect on the eyes and eliminate under-eye bags.
Get two cotton pads and wet with cold milk. Remove excess and leave the pads on eyelids for about 20 minutes. Replace once they get warm.
Leave a metal spoon in the freezer and use it every time you have puffy eyes. Press the convex side to your problem area for about five minutes and see the results.
