You had the best of intentions.
Your new year’s resolutions were to lose that 10 lbs that has been following you around since college, get rid of that “wine waist” (the one from drinking too much pinot grigio with your girlfriends) and get back on track with your laser hair removal regimen… the list goes on.
But uh-oh, spring came early this year, and now you are late to the party.
Worry no more. With these three quick-and-easy beauty fixes, you will be primed for a spring fling in no time.
Get with the program now by:
1. Taking the Edge Off
Get rid of your frown lines with injections of neurotoxins such as Botox, Xeomin or Dysport. There is a reason this stuff is so popular: it works! After a quick trip to your dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon for some shots on and around the number 11 between your eyes, you will no longer look angry or perplexed when you’re not. One treatment will take you through the summer. You won’t believe how much softer and more approachable you will look. (Perfect to attract that spring fling!)
2. Sweetening Your Smile
The reason teeth are called pearly whites is because they are supposed to be… white. If yours aren’t, it may be why no-one is looking at your online dating profile. USA Today reports that the No.1 deal-breaker for most single people is a bad smile and yellow teeth. There are many ways to whiten yours, including over-the-counter whitening strips and products such as Crest’s popular line, at-home bleaching kits and in-office bleaching. Just do it!
3. Waking Up Your Eyes
Is the skin under your eyes starting to sag and wrinkle, making you look like you are ready for winter hibernation when it’s really time for spring break? As we age, we lose collagen, the protein that gives skin its structure. Less collagen means more sag. But treatments such as Pelleve that heat the skin’s deeper levels with radiofrequency energy can help replenish our collagen stores. While it takes three or four treatments to see the full collagen-boosting effects, you will immediately look brighter and more radiant because the procedure improves blood flow to the skin. The best part? Not only is Pelleve painless, it actually feels good. Don’t waste the glow on heading back to the office — instead, plan for a night on the town after Pelleve.
Happy hunting!
