Beat the festive fatigue

It’s supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year, but we all know that Christmas can be stressful.

Doctors have even come up with technical terms to describe the different kinds of pressure: there’s Festive Stress, which kicks in after a day’s stressful shopping; Family Jet Lag, for the exhausted way you feel after travelling to then keeping the peace at a family get-together and the Christmas Hormones, named for the cortisol cocktail that rages through your body when you consider wrapping another present.

Combine this with the rich food and alcohol, late nights and extra work that Christmas involves and it’s easy to see why the season of goodwill takes its toll on your skin, leaving it looking dehydrated and tired.

This year why not give yourself an early Christmas present and treat yourself to Irish beauty drink YourBeautyTonic during the countdown to Christmas?

Just one sachet a day of the all-natural, tropical fruit flavoured collagen booster has everything you need to keep skin, hair and nails at their best and you feeling rested and refreshed, all for less than the price of your daily cappuccino.

Add it to water before drinking and vitamins B7 and B12 get to work to combat tiredness, clinically proven collagen boosts beauty by improving skin’s moisture levels and preventing wrinkle formation, and hyaluronic acid plumps from within for younger-looking skin.

€59.95 for a 30 day supply, available from independent health stores and selected pharmacies.
