Two Boobs Good, Four Boobs Better!

Now, I don’t mean the big hair and cheesy one liners.

I know what you’re thinking, why would a man of your age and handsomeness need grooming products like the ones I’m talking about here.  Well, you can put them to use for times when you need them, but they weren’t really meant for, and they do the trick.

I was given a gift of two new products from Avon to try out, designed especially for men. The QuadraFX Anti-Ageing Moisturising Face Cream with SPF15 and the QuadraFX Anti-Ageing Moisturising Eye Cream. At first I was a bit hurt to be giving anti-ageing products but as a serious product junkie I was more than willing to give them a go.

With the anti-ageing cream face cream it claims to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after one week, and make your skin feel younger and firmer, and your pores visibly minimised. I didn’t notice a difference with fine lines, or pores. However I did find it a nice light moisturiser, it was easy to use and soaked in well. I did find the smell quite off putting, a very kind of chemically smell, but I got used to it after a couple of days. I wouldn’t recommend this if you’re looking for a product for lines and wrinkles, but it’s all right to use for a daily sun screen. It’s normally €10.50 for 50ml but Avon are currently selling it for €5.25, I’d say grab one for your holidays, it’s small and handy and you’ll need the SPF 15. I wouldn’t spend any more than the €5.25 cause I’m sure you could get a nice smell sun screen in Boots for that.

The anti-ageing eye cream is formulated to help eliminate dark circles and fine wrinkles around the eyes, it says it  also helps minimise puffiness and improves the look of crow’s feet. I preferred this so much more than the face cream, but yet again didn’t do much for fine wrinkles but worked amazingly on puffiness and dark circles. It has a nice thick texture but soaks in easily. This is the bees knees for those mornings when ya wake up with a hooer of a hangover and can hardly open your eyes, and you know you have to be bright eyed and bushy tailed for work in ten minutes. I used up my tube of this in no time, am hooked on it. It’s normally €7.50 for 15ml but Avon are selling it for €3.75 at the mo so stock up, I know I am. Again I’m not recommending this for lines and wrinkles but it works wonders on puffiness and dark circles.

So there you have it, even though we’re all young and studly, there’s more than one use for these so called anti ageing products.

Your missus or your ma will have an Avon catalogue lying around, and if not you go online and find a local rep.
