I suffer from WFS, or Winter Fatigue Syndrome. Something about the shorter spans of sunlight, pre-holiday stress and crisp, cool air just makes me want to hibernate under a warm quilt.
I do, unfortunately, have to wake up eventually for work or to get some food. To avoid frightening folks with my zombie-like pale, puffy skin, I need some perk-up products to look alive.
I start with a morning-shower squeeze of Bliss Shock Therapy Super Minty Concentrated Body Wash (at right, top, available at Pure Image), which, curiously, contains no real mint, just powerful perfume. However, the intense aroma revives me instantly. It feels like bathing in a pitcher of very strong mint iced tea. And the tingling sensation also soothes my cramped neck and shoulders.
Next, I attack my eye bags with smidges of both Lotus Eye Gel by Fresh and Kiehl's Eye Alert (at right, bottom, both available at Pure Image). Both contain caffeine and anti-inflammatory ingredients. While my bags don't disappear entirely, the gel creates a smooth, silky film that makes the skin around my eyes look firmer and hydrated.
Caffeine creates a temporary firming, and the polymers in the gels can create a quick, but temporary, tightening effect, says Cassie Lodwick, an aesthetician at Dermatology Associates on Dutchmans Lane. Also, "cucumber is an anti-inflammatory; it helps to cool the skin" and reduce puffiness.
To complete my winter skin refresher course, I slather on some Revivo-Tonic Cool Comfort Leg and Foot Gel by Ren Clean Skincare (at right, center, available at Sephora), which contains the caffeine-filled kola nut. Lodwick says kola nut is "something people take internally as a supplement to give them energy. Most of the time, the molecules (in skin-care products) are too big to be absorbed by the skin."
Still, the tingly formula gets the circulation in my gams going and gives me that extra jolt of courage I need to expose my drowsy self to the outside world. Yawn.
